Don't wait for things to get easier, simpler or better. Life will always be complicated. Learn to be happy right now. Otherwise you'll run out of time.
Browsing, I found this from Victory Worship.
I'm strucked by this. But I want to revise it.
Well actually I don't. It's definitely right. We fight our battles, we believe that God will give what he promised. But it doesn't guarantee that it'll be the end of all struggles. We're just leveling up. So yes. We need to break that habit of believing that something right will come along. We need to be happy right now, we're not getting any younger. 😉
Tick Tock.
Do you feel pressured?
You shouldn't be.😌
Take a deep breathe, look far, breathe in and tell yourself...
I shouldn't be pressured by world's standards...
If there's anything we need to be pressured of
It's to be pressured to know and do our purpose in this borrowed Life. Let's do it now. We don't know which people will benefit from our purpose, who will receive our help and love. But we need to get there soon. By believing that you have a purpose, you are enough and you can do it...
Be reminded of who you are. You are who God says you are!
Believe.
Yes I believe, that God will do what he promised you. But there are times where your energy gets limited because of what you feel. Emotions.
For the past weeks, I can say that I'm battling with my emotions. You know there are data points in your life where it's really low. Now I'm here analyzing why? I want to do my purpose, i want to help, i want to have a joyful heart etc. But why am I like this?
Am I controlled by emotions? Well as each days passed by. I confirmed that I am controlled by emotions and it's wrong.
"You know when we're in trouble -- whether or not it's our fault -- that we need grace." But when we found ourselves in a mess, we needed help, and we need it badly. The way I look at it, sooner or later we're all going to need the grace if God in our life, to compensate for our mistakes."
I needed grace. I pray everyday and God is with us all the time but grace is a gift that He gives and we need to cherish and save so when times get low, we bank from those graces.
I know I also needed to accept that we all fall down.
Our only hope is for God's grace. He sees us lying there, scuffed and bruised. He is entirely willing to help us up, dust us off and stabilize us again.
We just have to have the right stand. In fact attitude makes a lot of difference.
The Lord mocks at mockers.
Proverbs 3:34
Again.
Attitude makes a lot of difference.
Yes, I'm sad and all, challenged and all. But I didn't let it stir my attitude. I still did my best, i still helped other people. I still deliver what is asked from me. Because I know that's what God wants me to do. To rise above circumstances, and trust without border. That my season will come. We will receive the warm, restoring grace that originates with our loving Lord.
One chapter that strucked me is the chapter about contrite spirit. A broken spirit.
We need to he broken, it's said many times but yet we forget.
When things are not going well, we are humbled. We know we need outside help.
We are reminded that God is God and we are not.
All the things i feel, the pain and all the stuffs in my head while I'm reading this is like God, thank you so much for reminding me.
It says here.
Give up,
Why?
Because he's been waiting for you to just do that and call Him. He just wanted me to acknowledge that I can't handle it after all. Now is the time that God can work.
He just need us to obey and follow. He is pursuing a good plan. Believe.
He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God who has called you...is faithful.
1 Corinthians 1:8-9
Let us cling to him and never stop trusting Him.
Be strong and courageous, Moses said to the Israelites. We are never abandoned. We travel through life with the survival kit of God's grace.
With flashbacks and gratitude chapter, i remembered all the people of my past and thought what I learned from them. I prayed, asked forgiveness and forgive them. How amazing it is to have our sins forgiven and begin walking with God each day. I can think of no higher reason to be grateful.
The next chapter is about "Am I accomplishing anything?" Accomplishments shouldn't be big at all. I treat everything as accomplishment as long as it helped other people and it's pleasing in the eyes of God. I want to face him one day saying. I've been a good servant. I did this. 😌
It's hard. Yes.
But God is there to help us.
We don't know what to do, but our eyes are upon you.
2 Chronicles 20:12
If you will visit my blog's Facebook Page, i posted there yesterday a post about a flower. I still don't know it's name, but everytime I see it. It's like God is telling me. It will be alright. Smile now. 😌
He never fails to make us happy. I love Him. Always.
So when you're like me, who experience this lows in life, Heya! Stop babysitting your emotions, start acknowledging God's power in your life. Start today!
Believe in Seasons.
Sharing one of my favorite songs about waiting.❤️
Hillsong Worship
Seasons
Words and Music by Chris Davenport, Benjamin Hastings & Ben Tan
VERSE 1
Like the frost on a rose
Winter comes for us all
Oh how nature acquaints us
With the nature of patience
Like a seed in the snow
I’ve been buried to grow
For Your promise is loyal
From seed to sequoia
PRE-CHORUS
I know
CHORUS
Though the winter is long even richer
The harvest it brings
Though my waiting prolongs even greater
Your promise for me like a seed
I believe that my season will come
VERSE 2
Lord I think of Your love
Like the low winter sun
As I gaze I am blinded
In the light of Your brightness
Like a fire to the snow
I’m renewed in Your warmth
Melt the ice of this wild soul
Till the barren is beautiful
BRIDGE
I can see the promise
I can see the future
You’re the God of seasons
I’m just in the winter
If all I know of harvest
Is that it’s worth my patience
Then if You’re not done working
God I’m not done waiting
You can see my promise
Even in the winter
Cause You’re the God of greatness
Even in a manger
For all I know of seasons
Is that You take Your time
You could have saved us in a second
Instead You sent a child
TAG
And when I finally see my tree
Still I believe there’s a season to come
VERSE 3
Like a seed You were sown
For the sake of us all
From Bethlehem’s soil
Grew Calvary’s sequoia
Keep walking with God.
All my heart,
Konkon
P.S.
