No Turning Back

The Cross before me, the World behind me
The Cross before me, the World behind me
The Cross before me, the World behind me
No turning back, no turning back

Faith

"Live simply so that others may simply live"


As I listen to Pastor Chua's sermon, it just reminds me so much of the importance of leading a God-centered life.
Not only leading a God-centered life in living, even simply reading His word is to read His word with a God-centered mindset and revolving the focus on God.

The method of contrast in Psalm 1 is a timely reminder of abiding in Him; to look to Him rather than what He can give.
Many reminders are simple and straightforward, but they were mostly forgotten.

My prayer this coming week is to coming back to my first love, Jesus.
It is really difficult and tiring with so much on hand.
I don't foresee a smooth journey ahead, but I am assured of a destination.

I pray O God that You keep me in Your ways, that You will not turn Your face away from me.
Open my blinded eyes to see, open my deafened ears to hear.
Soften my heart to feel Your love, Your Great love.

Faith.
Faith in God has prevailed and will still prevail.
Teach me Lord, to continue to trust in You.
In Jesus' Name.
Amen.

Purpose Driven Life



PDL. One of the best sold titles and popular among the churches for its very message.

What on earth am I here for?

It is exactly what has been bothering me for quite some time.
With different views of life and influences, it seems meaningless to live on.
It seems like lying down eternally is a better choice.

And it doesn't help being alone, physically especially.
Though I'm surrounded by many most of the time, it is just different.
And as the days go by, as beloved ones fade away one by one, 
I find no one to turn to, feel so helpless and devastated at times recently.

I can't seem to get things done.
Properly.
Nothing seems to be that way.

I know I ought to turn back in His grace.
I know He is there awaiting with open arms.
I know He is ever faithful.
I know He loves.

But I guess I only know.
I may have not experienced it myself.

Lost.
