I really hope you guys WILL read this post although it seems very long and kinda boring.
Do read (:
God is good :)
Is true what some people said. "Being a christian is easy, but living as a christian is never easy"
in fact, is super difficult.
I really wanna put God first in my life,
but sometimes temptations always turn my attention away from God.
For example, parties, hanging out with friends and etc.
In the past few months, I have been attending quite a lot of parties and stuff.
and guess what? most of it are on the same day as youth.
I actually choose to attend parties and skip youth.
I choose to skip the opportunity to know more about God.
and yet, I call myself a 'child of God'
'm such a liar.
Besides that, I even stop doing my quite time with God.
Stop praying for a few months.
Actually I did.
I did pray sometimes, ONLY when 'm having problems.
I actually took Him for granted.
When 'm having problems, I ask Him for help,
but when 'm happily living my life, I totally forgot about Him.
is always about me, not Him.
this is how selfish I am.
Yesterday, I have to choose between hanging out with my friends and youth too.
I actually choose to hang out with my friends.
but you know what?
something shocking happened.
I met my youth friends after hanging out with my friends for less than 1 hour at pyramid.
I even told Sylvia before that if I met my youth friends here, I am so dead.
My youth friends were leaving pyramid and heading to summit for youth and asked me whether I wanna tag along.
Well, they didn't really ask. They just called me to tag along which I cant choose whether I want to or not. I have too.
I was actually quite angry and sad at first.
On our way to summit, I was so pissed.
and they were making so much noise in the car which made me even more pissed!
but you what?
I am so glad they did.
I am so thankful that I met them at pyramid and called me to go youth with them cause today sermon was really powerful in a way that it hit me so hard that I felt like just kneeling down and cry.
Pastor shared about praying today.
He said a lot of things that reminded me how I've been treating God for the past few months.
To make it more understandable, I totally ignored Him.
and I come to realize my distance with Him has been so far away.
Still remember I always pray that God will never let me go and never let go of my hands,
but this time, is me who let Him go, 'm the one who let go of His hands.
'm really thankful that I still know how to 'u-turn' back to Him and grab His hands once again.
Honestly, I don't even dare to imagine living my life without Him cause I know it very well that my life is gonna suck to the max.
You have no ideal how much He has changed me.
Not only me, but my life too.
He changed me to a better person.
Besides that, He taught me so much about life and showed me what everlasting love means.
:)
I really learnt my lesson this time.
Hopefully I wont repeat the same mistake again.
To Azimah, Sylvia and especially Hana,
'm really sorry that I choose to go youth and left you guys at pyramid.
I really hope that you guys understand that God plays a BIG part in my life and He is SUPER important to me. without Him, I wont be who I am today and 'm very sure about it.
Hana, I know you are quite upset and pissed, but please please please try to understand.
God comes first no matter what.
and babe, you will always be my BFF, my one and only BFF. I dunno bout the future, but 'm very sure about it at this moment and is really important to have my BFF to understand me compare to my others friends. It means a lot to me.
To Fee Vien, Sheryn, Felyn and Ong,
Thank you so much. 'm quite sure I will continue ignored God if you guys didn't 'forced' me to go youth today and listen to the sermon. and also thanks to my pastor for sharing such a powerful sermon.
Lastly,
Dear Lord,
'm really sorry for my behaviour for the past few months.
I hope that you will forgive me and make sure I will hold on to you no matter what happens.
Continue to teach me, guide me and protect me O Lord. Protect me from Satan.
Take away all temptations and help me to always put You first.
in Jesus name I pray,
Amen.
God bless :)
