Step By Step

It is nearly a year since the last post was being posted. Truthfully, I wasn't really know what I was doing other than just teaching and hanging out with friends occasionally.
Two years had passed so quickly since the last time I was ever so closed to the One whom I promised to devote my life unto. Along the way of working, the quiet time which was supposed to be laid aside was getting lesser by each day. The attitude of 'No, I don't wanna go to church' started to grow in my thoughts and gradually in my actions. My attitude became more and more like the rest of the world and I was unkind and impatient. In other word, I was self-centered and money-oriented. I believed in self-driven success.
It is not wrong to think likewise. It was just my intention of doing so, was just to stay 'alive' in this world which seemed to be ever draining my time and energy.
Until I had a growth, a cyst which is 5.7 cm under my ovary and was diagnosed with 50% of probability for it being malignant. To be frank, I wasn't even worried because I wanted to go for an 'experience' in Australia and NZ so badly for seven months which I planned since February. Even when I had the pain so severely that I couldn't walk, my lust for what I wanted had definitely lured me alive.
I knew it was a 'No' from God but I couldn't care less. I planned and spent money buying this and that for traveling purposes. Just six days before the departure day to Australia, my university mates who were serving in CF together in the past came and I was 'persuaded' not to go. I had to miss my flight yet again.
However, I know I made the right choice. I was blessed with so many cares and concerns through prayers from friends and also, a love gift from God that was very timely. I was sad, no doubt. Having to miss my 'adventure' again for the second time and to know that I needed to go for an operation to remove a female organ.
But I have never been this close to the One who I promised to devote my life, in these two years. So I am thankful and grateful for I know now; even more convicingly ; Nothing else matters. Just God , His Word and Works.
1st Pet 1: 6-7 : In this ,you greatly rejoice , though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith , being so much more precious than the gold that perishes , though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
The verse was explaining that with the knowledge of resurrection of Christ, fellow believers should greatly REJOICE that in life even when one may face challenges (eg:persecutions) , that one may found praising the Lord until the day He comes. :)
