Thank You

I am truly thankful for everything that God has done in my life. Even in the midst of whatever stress and problems, i can see His hand in my life. I can have the assurance in my heart that i'm exactly where He wants me to be, even though i may not feel good, but i still have the kick of knowing that yeah, i'm walking with God, i'm not alone. Whatever happens, He's promised that He'll be here, and it's like Jo said, i'm just so thankful that even though i'm faithless, whenever i need Him, His love and presence never fails to come and comfort me. And i'm always reminded of what i've read in Joyce Meyer's book, or bible verses, suddenly everything that happens - Friends, movies, books... all bring a word into my life :]

Yeah, maybe in other's eyes, i'm weak because i need God (or a religion), but yup, i know that there's a part of me that cannot be filled by people. Even though i try to sometimes, but it's only temporary and it's frustrating because it's like a gaping hole that can never be filled. Only when i'm in God's presence can i really ever feel peace, not just a calming down of the heart when listening to soothing music, but in the soul that in this time and place, i do not just exist, i am whole, i am myself, and i am loved. Like that scene in Prince of Egypt, when Moses met God in the mountains and had a glimpse of His presence.. After it, you're just so amazed, and your soul is so satisfied and filled to the brim, overflowing with contentment, hope and life. And it's something that i don't have to work hard to earn, to be fearful that it'll ever leave or be taken away because no matter what we do, God made it clear that He would rather die than do without us. Nothing will ever take us away from Him again, He'll make sure of that. :]
