    Some few years ago, I was attending a local university, the University
    of Botswana. Because I was living on campus, every evening I would
    go jogging to keep fresh and myself fit. There was a park behind the
    university and this was a perfect place for an evening jog.  As it
    sometimes happens in our lives, either triggered by an event or just
    comes from nowhere, it came at a time when I was just tired. I was
    tired of my faith, tired of studying, tired of my life and just tired of
    almost everything. Normally when in this state, we as human beings
    like finding more reasons to stay in this state, and wisdom tells me
    that this is the worst time to make any major decision. If you are
    used to praying it becomes difficult to pray, to read scriptures, life
    looks hopeless.


    One winter day, this "hopeless" day came. On that day, I did not
    even want to take a jog as usual. However, late at night I just
    decided to go. It was dark and dangerous to do so. I started putting
    on my jogging gear with an "I don't care what happens" attitude. I
    jogged, and came back to the hostels, safe and sound, but still
    psychologically and spiritually empty. I went straight to the hostel
    bathrooms to take a shower. As if what I was going through that day
    was not enough, the water was very cold. "I don't care I will just
    shower" I concluded, and I jumped in. The chilling water ran through
    my body; imagine the combination of cold body with mental vacuum.
    The more the water hit my body, sadness and despair accelerated.
    Suddenly, the temperature of the water started changing. It became
    lukewarm, and then warm and suddenly I had to turn on cold water to
    keep a reasonable bathing temperature.



    Amazingly, as the water temperature changed, something started
    changing in me as well. There was hope where there was
    hopelessness, happiness and a sense of purpose was restored in
    me. The desperation, loneliness and all bad thoughts started
    disappearing as if they were flushed down the drain by the warm
    shower. I started singing! I learned right then in life, that God can
    use anything to restore us to a place of freshness and purpose. So if
    you going through a rough time; just know that there is light at the
    end of the tunnel. Just take a shower!
