Its has took so long for me to do a post over here. I don't know
exactly why, but was not feeling good enough to do one. But today I
felt like sharing something God brought to my mind to encourage me.
A few days back I was feeling very bad because of something, that I am not in control of physically. I never wanted something so in my life. I was really feeling so bad and was almost getting lost, if it had gone so further like that I would have been into something really bad. Suddenly this thought came to my mind that God wants to prove to the devil that His children whom he loves will remain faithful to Him whatever goes wrong around them. That's what He expects from us and what we are supposed to do. When we look into the book of Job (don't think I'm comparing myself to Job. I'm just an unrighteous, a messed up guy living just because of His grace.) we can see the devil challenging God saying “Does Job fear God for nothing? Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face." and God lets satan to have everything Job has, to show satan that his claims were false..
We may have hard times in our lives(I dint had anything like Job had in his life, not even one by hundredth of what he had.) but when God lets something happen in our life He fills us with His power that we can stand and face it.. Yeah, sometimes God may let the devil touch us physically to prove him that we, His children will be faithful to Him. God will pour out His power and fill us with His Holy Spirit not because we are worthy for it, but He loves us and He never wants us to fail. He will never let us down. By each hard time in our life God make us more perfect and teaches us to love Him more to be more faithful to Him.
While writing this I was listening to this song..
These days I'm having such a wish to work for any mission organization. I'm asking God to bring forth someone to support me just for a few months if its not against His plan for me. After that, if God helps me, I can support myself. Its just my wish, may be what God has in store for me is something different and it would be more better than my plans.
Lord I'm surrendering me fully in your hands. Let your plan for me happen in my life, not mine. Use me according to your will. Forgive me the flaws in my life..
I would like to have your prayers for me..
Have a great day..:-)
your friend in Christ..
