This does not mean everything that happen to us is good. Evil is prevalent in our fallen world, but God is able to turn every circumstance around for our long range good. Note that God is not working to make us happy, but to fulfill His purpose. (extracted from Life Application Study Bible NIV) *YES! I've gotten my copy! Lucky me it's the 20th anniversary special edition - Hard cover! Thanks to Auntie Hong and Sis Angela!^^* I believe things happen for a reason even when we tend to categorize certain things as bad in life. But the magic of this (or the lack of it) is that we have the assurance as the child of God that even when woe befall us, it is for a certain reasons that we may or may not see but we can be certain that it is beneficial for our spiritual well-being and in life when we view the happenings on the long run. Many people would probably wonder silently when they see me, "Why is she so hyper and out of place?" To tell the truth I feel most "high" when I go to church every weekend because I feel that it is one place where I do not have to hide and pretend, it is one place I find peace and the one place where I can really get together with brothers and sisters ofd the same faith and just have a great time together, knowing that we will always be there for one another and that we all trust in the Lord to help us grow comforts me, much like a hot chocolate will comfort you on a very cold day and you are hungry. It is that satisfaction and appreciation that sets me off. I am not nuts but if you prefer to call me that way, I don't mind being "high" for God for He makes my life good! Why is this so? Being through so much in life, I feel that maybe all these experiences in the past enable me to hear God more clearly everyday, that I may be satisfy or rejoice in the simplest thing in life. I praise God for that. I read the other day during my bible-reading that do not be afraid to sing praises of our Lord because of what He has done! I had always look up to those I think are spiritually strong. Bro Phillip, Sis Yee Yiun, Bro Max, just to name a few. I admire their love and compassion for God, the fire they have and the burden they bear for Christ! I never thought I could be like them, be like Christ but slowly I begin to realise I can do it if I set my heart to it and ask God to guide me and uphold me! This year, I want to build a stronger relationship with God, not giving Him what is left of my time after I finish everything I do daily but to give all my time, meditating on His Words and remembering Him the whole day through. I had begin my journey in bible reading/ study and hope to finish reading the bible by the end of the year, for once I would like to be a finisher. (I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4 :7) I am also doing my daily devotion and I will do both every morning when I wake up before I do anything else. It makes my life more sane for the rest of the day because His Words are with me at all time. I hope I will perservere in my practice and believe that God will provide the strength! Been listening to some old songs on my pod these few days. Bean died on me so now I got a new music player. I have no idea why but my music player seems to be related to Peas.. It used to be bean, now it is pod.. (random- need to learn how not to sidetrack in my writing-self reminder). SO yes, listening to old songs, as usual, a lot of memories are unravel. Had been listening to Christian songs a lot the recent years and forgotten about all those chinese oldies I used to listen to. I realised they all talk about love(relationship) which get pretty boring after a while. I remember the younger me when I was still in secondary school, being brainwashed by those taiwanese idol dramas (think MVP Valentine, Meteor Garden, Devil by Your Side, etc) They programmed my brain to believe that relationships are beds of roses with no responsibility to bear that all we need is I love you, you love me, candlelight dinners, roses, gifts, messages and hours of phone calls and tonnes of other things that can melt girls' hearts. BEing ignorant then, I really do believe in happily ever after just by the above mention things. When people around me got into relationships, I yearn to be in one too, because all I see are happiness and sweetness that they experience and me being me then yearn for attention and someone to care and love me for then I had not know the love of God. But little did I know, behind the hand-holding, sweet promises and dates are responsibilities, one that is needed to maintain a healthy and happy relationship. When I finally did get into relationship, I realise that what we can see from the outside was just a small part of relationship. relationships need patience and understanding, maturity and tolerance and most importantly, LOVE. Not just I love you, you love me, I jump you jump sort of love but real love, as define by the Bible in 1 Corinthians. The result of a relationship that is without that kind of understanding spells disaster and as you can see does not last. We both ended up being hurt, losing part of ourselves forever it seems because certain thing in life such as your time, your attention and your affection, once you give it to another person, you can't just take it back. Time heals the wound but the memories stay, good and the bad. Two relationships, two failed relationships leave good and bad memories. It helped me grow and mature. Now that I look back, the breakups are blessings in disguise, it changes my childish mindset, over the years, I realise that the relationships were doom to fail anyway because it was not the right person, or at least the person God intend me to be with. It teaches me to not rush into something that needs serious consideration, teaches me what is true love and what is just mere lust and trust in the Lord for the right person to come along and that God will intervene at the right time. Roses, kisses, hugs and gifts are not enough to sustain a relatinship forever I now know because I too was shower with them once but it leads nowhere. I may not be able to see the Master Plan God have for my life but I am willing myself to be used by Him and follow His direction for my life obediently. I may not be the perfect princess of God but I know I am heading that way and that one day I will inherit the kingdom of God as He has promised to us. All I hope now is that I will continue to grow spiritually and to trust in Him. That even if I make mistakes in life, I am forgiven when I repent and that through these mistakes, I will be a better person and it is all part of the parcel of life here on Earth. I want to be on fire for Him and trust my whole life, my studies, my family, my future, my career, my decisions, relationships, life partner, finance, well-being, absolutely everything unto His mighty Hands. God desires dependence, trust and faith in Him-not faith in our ability to please Him. So, maybe we need to remove that blindfold that had been obstructing our view from seeing Him clearly and really know and understand that you do not have to hide from Him and you can tell Him absolutely everything like how you would to your parents, friends and love ones. So, are you holding a grudge towards God when bad things seem to happen in your life and you shout out to the Lord "Why God do you let this happen to me?". Trust Him and know that He has greater plans for you! Do not let a blindfold keep you from Him. Do you have any blindfolds that need to be remove in life that is keeping you from having a better relationship with God? -Lily- 0 comments |
