Running Away.

Where can i go from your Spirit?
Where can i flee from your presence?
If i go up to the heavens, you are there;
if i make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If i rise on the wings of the dawn,
if i settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

If i say, "Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,"
even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

Psalm 139:7-12

Don't we all feel like running away at times? When troubles arise and when hard times strike us, we feel weak, powerless, devastated... Somehow, our faith shrinks drastically, courage deserts us, and everything we want to hold on tight is falling apart. The first instinct is to run away... run far far away from all these.

Running away from problems, running away from facing them......running away from God.

Another sleepless night. Nonetheless, praise the Lord! Recently, sleepless nights would be longer dates with God. :) Instead of wasting time to toss and turn in the bed, instead of staring into the dark and brood over the things which bug me, why not take time to talk and listen to God?

I tried to run away... but it led me to nowhere. Problems are not solved, instead, worries, anxieties, frustrations increased. Running away is not the way to solve any problem you face. God is always with everyone of us. We can tell Him our problems, our anxieties, and everything! How wonderful it is that our Father knows us well - every move, every thought - sometimes He knows even better than us! Like how King David wrote in Psalm 139:1-4. Our Father knows us COMPLETELY. So, why run away?

Everywhere we go, everything we do, every hardship we endure, God is watching over us. No matter how upset we are, no matter how far we run away from Him, He will still be there. He will be reaching out His hand, waiting for us to hold His hand so that He can guide us through. Even when you think it's too dark for you, too impossible for you; to God, it's bright with hope, it's possible! So, why run away?

Stop running away.
Turn to God,
hold His hand,
and trust in Him.

God bless you all! :)

Happiness.

Be Still

'Be still, and know that I am God.' Psalm 46:10

BE STILL. He is God. God is in control. God is with you, God is walking with you through all the pain that you have to endure. God is fighting with you when challenges come thrashing down. God covers you and protects you when you feel scared. God holds your hand when you feel unsure and doubtful. There's nothing impossible in God. He is the God who gives and takes away. God knows what He is doing. God has His plans and His own timing. Overcome your fears, cast away your anxieties, and believe in Him, because He is GOD.

Promises.

Pour Your spirit over me, let Your love rain down.
Would You take these hands of mine and use me?
Would You take these feet of mine and lead me?

Thank You, Father, for tonight. 'promises'.. You are indeed an awesome GOD! I am so in love with You... ♥

Tonight was a special night. Ever since i stepped my foot to SG, there's a voice inside me kept telling me to join any cell group i could. So i joined my cousin's cell group - it turned out fantastically and magically AWESOME! I'm amazed at how God does things! When you need just the right word to be reassured, when you are struggling and fighting within yourself, when you are just so desperate for an answer - He will give it to you, somehow... He will come to the rescue, for sure. :) Thank You, Lord!

Was really worried over someone... and i felt so powerless cuz i really can't do anything practical to help, to ease his pain. Felt like everything that i've been trying was just in vain. Felt like there's no hope... However, after this powerful prayer by the cell group leader, i feel that i have the strength to carry on this fight...

Promises.

Don't give up just yet.
Gotta claim the gifts, remember?

Silence.

Unbelievable!

So many questions i wanted to ask, so many things i wanted to say...
Yet, are all summarized with a few minutes of s i l e n c e .

Courage. :(

Take care, alright?

Dilemma.

To go
or
not to go?

Will things change when i leave?
Will everything still remain the same when i come back?

I hate the feeling of being far, far away from everything...

Book Making

Sometimes, i really don't know how can i help. So i spent one whole night, making a motivation book, hopefully it can always be there to motivate you when you need a boost of strength. Went all over the places to search for quotes, flipped through the bible to search for powerful bible verses to encourage you. I just wanna help out, i wanna do something to help out... :) Do something i could...

Remember...
