Everything Begins with God

This is today's message. I went out to the Altar for prayer and this was what the Pastor said:-

"There is not only one road in front of you, and the roads may not be straight; have faith in the Lord to bring you through. The roads may be full of obstacles but His hand will not let go of yours."

Once again, I am reassured of His companionship. I have no idea what the prayer meant. I was focusing on one issue and was hoping for an answer but this came from the Pastor.

Lord, please lead me through as I only want to hear from You. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Rest

God says, "come to me those who are weary & I will give you rest"

If you refer to my Note, "The Door", I was saying that I should look to other doors.

For some reason I feel like putting this down today, that I should let go & let God.

I made a prayer, "Lord, if this is not from You, please take it away from me because I need some rest". Yes, I really need to rest for I am tired.

I think I've finally made up my mind that it is time to take a good rest & allow God to work according to His time & way. After all, there is no best way (in human capacity), just God's way.

I learned about trust, about relying on God, about letting God take charge~sometimes it is difficult to put into practice but I believe that sometimes all we need to do is to take some rest & spend some quiet time with Him.

Jesus, I trust that You have Your best interest in me & let You lead me all the way through. In Jesus' precious name I pray, Amen.

What a Friend I have in Jesus

Dear Jesus,

It has been such a long time since I wrote in such a style, the diary style~

Thank you for letting me know that You will be my best friend~
I know, I could always count on You & lean on You. Whenever I need a companion, You're always on standby. All I need to do is to get connected with You. I don't have to wait for the phone to ring, neither do I have to wait for the line to connect. I just need to call Your name, & instantly I'm connected to You.

You're my strength when I'm weak,
You're my comfort when i'm down,
You're my helper when I'm in need,
You're my provider when I'm lacking,
You're my love, my all~

Jesus,please forgive me because I tend to keep You in my heart but not getting connected to You as often as I should. At times I tend to be so busy with my own life that I've conveniently forgotten that all I need to do is to submit my life to You. Lord, I need You in my life because I'm so afraid to imagine how my life would be without You. Please get involved in my life. Once again, I invite You to my life. As Ps Jaeson Ma had said, Jesus, be my only satisfaction. I just need to have You in my life & all others shall be secondary in my life. I believe that when I put You as priority, everything else will fill in naturally.

What a friend I have in Jesus. In Him, I find contentment, faithfulness, trustworthiness, truthfulness~

With Him, I know I can be my true self because He will accept me for who & what I am. He will not laugh at me, nor make fun of me, nor betray me, nor taking advantage of me, nor taking me for granted~

Jesus, You're all I need. Thank You for everything, because of You, I'm able to experience Your grace & mercy. There's none like You, yes, there's none like You. Amen!
