I have been in a tough time lately. Going home is not easy especially if you have been away for seven years. It is more difficult since I’ve been away from my spiritual family. There is no one whom I share my burden with and ask for a prayer. There is no one who continues to encourage me whenever there is a discouragement along the way. Sometimes, when I realized how difficult my situation is, I cry and pour all of it to God. I ask Him to comfort me because I cannot bear myself without Him in my life.
After continuous praying to Him, the situation is still the same. However, He changes my heart on how should I react in the present situation. I cast all my cares and burdens in Him. He talks to me every day through my friends and my quiet time. He gives me listening ears and understanding heart to know that above all, there is a God who is Sovereign. And in times that I know I am weak, His power is made perfect and His grace is sufficient.
Below is quoted from my QT yesterday:
“It is God’s Spirit that changes the atmosphere of our way of looking at things, and then things begin to be possible which before were impossible. Getting into God’s stride means nothing less than oneness with Him. It takes a long time to get there, but keep at it. Don’t give up because the pain is intense right now— get on with it, and before long you will find that you have a new vision and a new purpose. “–Oswald Chamber, My Utmost for His Highest
