well, not in a creepy way, i mean. it's just that there are some things in my life where i have re-arranged to get right back on track. Before, i knew i was hitting the road well, but, suddenly it seemed to become so hazy, blurry and full of rocks. i never realized those things plus a few distractions that came my way. they're not sin per se; however, the moment i laid my eyes upon them, i was very lured and in turn slowed down my course of journey as a Christian. my relationship with the Lord has faced a traffic sign of yellow light...for quite some time, and it's not benefiting me anymore. i really was slowing down! probably if i'd still be giving too much attention on those matters til now, the belief of being "focused" just on the Lord and what He wants me to be will only be a flat-out delusion.
it's not that i'm saying that the ride's already smooth, without hassle and like i'm now on the go, but i'm just so thankful to the Almighty Father for using some situations in my life to take some time to contemplate and make an immediate action plan about it. it's very difficult to let go of these things that so easily entangle me because they have grown on me already. again, it's not as easy as releasing or throwing away an object/non-living material...and this is what makes me shut my eyes in exasperation and in mercy of the Lord to help me because i currently am tapering of letting go of my weaknesses. step by step i'm gonna move forward by the grace of God and i'll be fruitful if i continue to fix my eyes upon Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of my faith. this doesn't mean i'll become bitter toward those situations, it's just that i'm taking one step at a time and not pushing myself to happen what i WANT to happen. i allow the Lord to let this transformation take place in my life right now matched with an active faith ;)
i'm doing great now, thank God! i'm ok with that thing (i guess) because for now, that's what the Lord wills in my life. just enjoying that feeling but now i'm more conscious not to be driven too much with it, making my relationship with my Savior and Bestfriend Jesus Christ get affected. now the Lord is teaching me to just trust in the peace that He has given me as i continue to seek and aim for the highest calling that He has for me. little by little He's revealing Himself more to me...His plans; i find His presence sweeter everyday and i don't wanna miss these experiences for the world for this is far more eternal and rewarding.
hallelujah! i declare victory! victory! victory!
=========================================
kanina my boss has given his permission for me to join the youth mission trip at guinyangan, quezon. praise God!!! it will be on May 23-27. mahaba-haba ito! mukhang aalisin talaga ako ni Lord sa comfort zone! pero ok lang, i know naman na as i experience it all, God's love will still rest upon my soul.
this is my very first time engaging in such trip and i'm so excited because i've been keeping my options open to what the Lord would want in my life...and this includes being in missions. in my heart i strongly believe the Lord will send me somewhere someday, i just don't know when, how and where. all i am holding to right now is my desire and longing to glorify Him as i reach the upward call. in due time the Lord will confirm it to me...in His perfect time.
