When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay. [7] And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.
Prayer : listen and apply the word of God
Life is and has always been busy (work, learning, assisting, etc).
Therefore make a deliberate decision to find time for your loved ones.
Stop focusing on impressing (boss, teacher/lecture, friend, parents, siblings, relatives, etc).
Do what is expected of you and that is the beginning (roles & responsibilities).
Reports (details) are part of life.
It is what one does with details that determines the outcome.
Some fear the unknown while others embrace it and trusts God for a positive outcome.
You should be reminded that everyone has a choice to make regarding what to do with a report.
Act / react / nothing / improve / revise
Numbers 13:17-20,28,30-33 NKJV
Then Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, "Go up this way into the South, and go up to the mountains, [18] and see what the land is like: whether the people who dwell in it are strong or weak, few or many; [19] whether the land they dwell in is good or bad; whether the cities they inhabit are like camps or strongholds; [20] whether the land is rich or poor; and whether there are forests there or not. Be of good courage. And bring some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the season of the first ripe grapes. [28] Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there. [30] Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, "Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it." [31] But the men who had gone up with him said, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we." [32] And they gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, "The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature. [33] There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."
