Whenever I get to think how it all started, I just can’t seem to apprehend how and why I got here. Sometimes, you’ll just have to get back to what the Lord tells us through His word at
2 Corinthians 12:9 And He has said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness. Most gladly therefore I will rather boast in my weakness that the power of Christ might tabernacle over me.
10 Therefore I am well pleased in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, on behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am powerful.
Hi Steemit Community!! :) I am really happy to have found another avenue of let’s just say… venting out. Haha. I’ve had so many blogs before but all were personal. I guess my hobby is really a good opportunity to explore SteemIt, as well. Especially that writing is really one thing I love. ♥
I’ve been in here since September last year but unluckily, I wasn’t able to explore as earlier as possible. Still, many thanks to our brother in Christ @yukimaru for helping us through this. Busy schedule as is… But, hey… there will never be a time when you cannot heed to what your heart wants to pursue. First things first. I hope this introductory post will do…
"Impulsive yet always trying to be careful. Persuasive yet most of the times taken aback. Strong yet when you get to watchfully notice, very spineless and weak."
This is how I got to know myself. ♥ They say that when a person can laugh out everything so boldly, it can be two different things: that he is genuinely happy, and that he is suppressing something heavy. Nevertheless, I can be either one of the two… and this is how I really am. When things go well, healthy laughs are flooding my soul. When things don’t, I already don’t know. Then the Lord in His word so conveys…
Isaiah 54:10 For the mountains may depart and the hills may shake, but My loving kindness will not depart from you. And my covenant of peace will not shake, says Jehovah who has compassion on you.
Oh how happily the Lord Jesus wants us to be! And so I realized, in this world where we are just sojourners, we shall give thanks and glorify Him in every chance that we get to take. In all aspects, there is always something to be thankful for, right? :)
Just a simple example. When there’s an insect bite, a stroke of menthol balm will ease the itchiness. And so we got to be thankful there’s this menthol sensation that’ll appease discomfort after a little while of enduring it.
However, in this situation we always choose to get upset that something bit us and that it brought an irritable feeling. We get
prickly and grouchy and very uneasy.Then we rub unceasingly until we notice that we already have a scratch.
In like manner, in our lives, if we just hold on a little bit, endure some more and wait until the menthol balm soothes the sting, then we won’t get a wound anymore. :) Maybe this is really how humans are meant. Hard- headed, strong- willed, and very irresistible.
And so am I. Haha!! I am human, eh? :))))))
Buti na lang…
#Jesus is NOT just something ! :)
He won’t let us settle this way. Instead, He is bringing us back to our original state- to being pure, blameless, unblemished children of God.
Praise the Lord! ♥ Yesterday has passed and today is another day. This is the NOW.
It might had been rough and tough and you know, I’m not actually a buff. But before... _I walked down this road of oblivion hoping that there’s going to be more to life than this._
I hoped. I just hoped...--- because I don’t know a thing..
Surprisingly, there is really more to life than just plain insensibility, obscurity, nothingness, silence, and gloom…
Because even a small spot of bright light will always be magnificent and glowing in a dark room. ♥♥♥
Jesus is, indeed, my hope. :) And,hey...He's yours, too! ♥
...Now ending this post with some of my favorite verses… :)
Romans 8:24 For we were saved in hope. But a hope that is seen is not hope, for who hopes for what he sees?
25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly await it through endurance.
