You Know Better Than I

Lord, I may have some beliefs that I thought I'm right, that I thought I'm on the right path. But still I don't know. I am coming to You 'cause You know better than all the wisdom here on earth. Teach me to let go of my beliefs that are not right and replace it with Your Divine wisdom. I may not know it as You do but I am putting my trust in You. Amen.

 

Your Heart Today

Whenever I feel sad, hurt, troubled, upset, imperfect, faulty, or whatsoever that makes my heart weak, let me cross my fingers and then stare at somewhere without seeing anything and then close my eyes with my tears  flowing... this music keeps playing in my player...

 

Be Still

In this time of trouble, of confusion, of weary, it feels great to be reminded how God moves and send His unfailing love to our lives. This vid with this wonderful song "Still" really touches me and reminds me how God works in my life and despite of all my wickedness, He still loves me and wants me to be with Him until the end.

"Lord, I'm sorry for being so weak. Please hold me and never let me go. I need you in my life."

STILL
by Hillsong

Hide me now
Under Your wings
Cover me
within Your Mighty hand

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father, You are King over the flood
I will be still and know You are God

Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know His power
In quietness and trust


 

Psalm 23:4


"Even though I walk through the darkest valley, 
I will fear no evil, for You are with me; 
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me."

It was Saturday, as I attended an advance celebration of Pentecost, there I heard that verse from a spiritual speaker whom I really admire, Bro. Bo Sanchez. It was just a short talk and yet, had gave and left a very significant lesson on me. He focused on the term "ambivalent" which means uncertain, hesitant, unsure, confused, etc. And he related the verse Psalm 23:4 with John 5:1-9 where there stated a sick man who was lying for 38 years. When Jesus saw that man lying on his mat and knew that he had been in that condition for long time, He asked "Do you wish to get well?". 

If you will meet someone on the road who has obviously no food and starving to death, would you ask him "What do you want?" Normally, we will assume that of course, this man needs food even though he didn't ask for it. But why Jesus, inspite of knowing that the man has been lying on his mat for long time, sick and ill, still, He asked him "Do you wish to get well?" 

Yes, it's true. Sometimes, we're uncertain, we're hesitant, we're unsure of what we really want that is also why Jesus still need to hear us asking Him for what we really want. And maybe the reason why Jesus still asked that man if he wish to get well, is because, for that 38 years, that man was able to live of his life through those people who keep on helping him. It may be already his comfortable life, maybe he get used to it already and is just afraid to stand and walk for he don't know where to go or what to do once he get well. And so, he might be unsure if he really wants to get well.

I paused and thought for that moment. Yes, I know, I also have this sickness in me that I am holding on for so long. I know what I want but when facing challenges, I tend to get lost then starts to doubt my desires. I'm afraid of the unknown, of the uncertainty. I'm afraid I wasn't able to make it. I'm afraid I might lose the game, I might fall and not to get up again. I am in my familiar world and I'm comfortable in it already. But still, I'm sick. I know I'm sick and yet, I don't want to pick up my mat and get up 'coz I'm always afraid...

I know I don't want to be in this kind of situation anymore and I believe, God don't want it either for me. God is God of Providence, of Love, of Generosity. He is a God of Abundance! He wants us all to be healed in whatever sickness we are in. And yet, we keep on holding on to that sickness and refuse to get well because of our FEARS. Lots of FEARS!

"Lord, like that sick man, I am ready to pick up my mat and walk. You know how weak I am and helpless without You. But despite of this sickness, I believe that You are with me wherever I go. And for this journey of life, I will cast all my cares upon You and fear no more for You are my Lord and my guide. Yes, You are my Refuge and my shield, that nothing can harm me anymore. - Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. In Jesus Mighty name, AMEN"

 

God Is Talking To Me...

I have posted it as Notes on my FB account and read it again just now. This is really one beautiful prayer as it reminds me that God never fails on His promises and that He always has wonderful things in store to each one of us. We just have to look life from a different prospective especially on our hardest fight and we'll see how God is working on in our lives. As one famous writer said, "...you got to look very carefully and you will notice that there is a higher power guiding us (the entire Universe) to a specific goal. We are as individuals too small to notice it, but it is there..."


God Is Talking To Me...

Lord, are you trying to tell me something?
For ---
Failure doesn't mean I'm a failure.
It does mean I haven't yet succeeded.
Failure doesn't mean I have accomplished nothing.
It does mean I have learned something.
Failure doesn't mean I have been a fool.
It does mean I had enough faith to experiment.
Failure doesn't mean I've been disgraced.
It does mean I dared to try.
Failure doesn't mean I don't have it.
It does mean I have to do something in a different way.
Failure doesn't mean I am inferior.
It does mean I am not perfect.
Failure doesn't mean I've wasted my life.
It does mean I have an excuse to start over again.
Failure doesn't mean I should give up.
It does mean I must try harder.
Failure doesn't mean I'll never make it.
It does mean I need more patience.
Failure doesn't mean you have abandoned me.
It does mean you must have a better idea.


Thank you, Lord for all of these wonderful blessings that you have given to life and thank you for loving us unconditionally.  Amen.
