All is Well

"All is well that ends well." 

I've been hearing that  cliche a lot of times. But what does that phrase really mean? According to a dictionary, it is  an event that has a good ending even if some things went wrong along the way. 

     

    Have you ever had that "all is well" moments? It's such an amusing moment right? That feeling when you ran out of words to explain just how thankful you are that you were able to huddle a a task despite the impediments that come your way. 

    This week has been pretty tough for me. I am a class adviser of second year students and part of my job as an adviser is to consolidate the grades and prepare a progress report card. It was an arduous task; I had to undergo a long process and consolidating, encoding, and reading of the grades. I had to do a series of counter checks to ensure that I'll be giving the grades which are really due for my students. 

   For days. I've been going home late from school for I have to spend more time for it, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to accomplish it on time. I was one of the teachers who submitted my consolidations late and that had a ripple effect. Things got tougher as I thought it would be. I lost track of everything that I forgot to follow the protocol and so it made my task more complicated as it was supposed to be. 

  I grew tired and weary, I was hopeless that time thinking what would happen if I would not be able to produce report cards. I was also frustrated about myself; I am a perfectionist type and I want things to get done smoothly and considering that instance is such a mess, I got myself all messed up too. 

 The night before the cards out activity, I was really anxious and restless but I chose to rest in God's presence, I sought His face and I was exhorted. As I browse on His Words, it led me to Hebrews 6:17-18 and it says, God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged."  

  That verse helped me to remember that God is gracious and His promises are true, He will deliver me from and through the adversaries that I am going through. 

 True enough, God fulfilled His promise.
