Prayer Changes Everything

Stormy Saturday

Hmmmm. Been a long time since the last time i posted something here heheheh.
There was a storm just now. It was raining so hard and there were so many thunders and the wind was also blowing so hard.
Well, it was actually kind of the picture of what i felt yesterday. After i got back from household, i started to feel weary doing this YFC thing. I dont know what happened to me that day. Its like i got so many burdens i have to carry on my back and i don't have anyone to help me. I felt so powerless.
Then i started to pray and ask the Lord about what i felt. What i actually asked Him about was actually about me doing the right thing. I asked Him to show His way, not my way. While i was talking to Him, telling Him about how I felt; He sent me a friend (just what i needed :D ) and let me talk to that friend of mine. I shared to her about how I felt, and somehow, she was pumping my spirit back and after awhile talking to her, its like I've been powered up by God to do this work again xD
I was also listening to music by that time, and there was this one song that caught me up. the song was indescribable by chris tomlin. the song is about explaining how amazing, how powerful God is. That song was like telling that He's so amazing, so powerful that He will take care of me that He would take that feeling out of me and give me the power i need to do what i have to do for Him. I just got the assurance and also the power i needed from God to continue to glorify His name through this community =D
Then Saturday came. I went out with my family for dinner. After we were done eating, the storm came and it was kinda scary (for some people). We weren't able to go back to the car. We were just waiting there hoping the storm would stop. I asked the Lord to stop it, but He didn't! Then I realized that He was actually showing me how awesome He is by letting that storm be there. He wanted to show me His greatness and His power. I was so amazed that I couldn't say anything else. And i didn't feel worried, not even a bit because I was and am sure that He will take care of me. There's nothing to be afraid of when I know that He's taking care of me :)
He showed me His power, His awesomeness 2 days in a row! He has empowered me again and its time to do my job again! Let's get it on!

Obedience

“So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt”

Joseph, the father of Jesus, is a great example for all of us. When the Angel of the Lord told him to do what God wanted him to do, he did it right away without any hesitations. Are we like him? Do we do what God tells us to do right away? I believe we often think about it first over and over again and if it’s too hard for us, we might not want to do it. Why should we hesitate about doing what He wants us to do when He knows what’s best for us?

God gives us the freedom to choose whether to do it or not. He doesn't want to force us because He really loves us. We, as the children of God, should obey the will of our Father. If the task is too difficult for us to bear, we should ask the Lord for the power to do the task. He will grant us the power to do it.

No more hesitations, no more delaying, we do what our Father wants us to do in order to please Him with our lives. We should try to be more like Joseph who never questioned God’s plans for him. Just do it and the outcome will be great for us and for Him for sure.

Feeling Strong?

I was on my way home and listening to a song and there was a line that really struck me. Well it wasn't my first time listening to that song, but that time, i just got struck by that line hahahaha.

well that line was "You think that you are strong, but you are weak" and the song was you'll see by madonna. Yes, it is an old song and i just happen to hear that song everytime i'm in my cousin's car.

I started to think that i've been acting like i'm a strong guy, but am i really strong? Btw, being strong here is not about strength, its about being able to say no to what the world is offering me. I may look strong on the outside, but what about the inside? I'm actually just a mere human who still falls over and over. I'm just a weak guy who's trying to resist the temptations the world is offering and trying to follow the One who has given His life for me. Everytime i fall, i always feel like i'm not worthy to be His follower. But you know what, He always forgives me for what i have done. He's there everytime i fall, i dont need to tell him what i have done coz He already knows. No matter how i've messed up things, He's always there and forgives me. What a merciful God He is!

I may be weak, but He always strengthens me, He always gives me the power i need to say no to all those stuffs that will just ruin me. There is this one song that always gives me the strength when i feel so weak. Though its not a Christian song, but you can change the song into a Christian by changing the you to You and its really empowering, knowing that how loving our God is.

Here it is:

(chorus)

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because You loved me

So, are you strong or just pretending to be strong?

I believe I'm strong since He always empowers me!!
