The Perfect Storm

Throughout the scripture, we can see lot of struggles to the people of God just like what we face in our day to day life today. If it was famine or plague back then, it is economic recession or cancer now. But the important aspect is that children of God has sustained every such season only because they have put their trust in Him.

We feel secure, when we have the trust. When I walk with my son, if he senses some danger, he pulls himself behind me, because he feel secure that his father will take care of the situation. It is very easy to proclaim that we trust God when everything is good. Everyone is happy and everything is going according to the plan, I have put my trust in the Lord and see how well the life is shaping up.

When we encounter heavy storms and when the sailing becomes tough, it takes a lot of courage to say I trust God. The moment we follow Jesus closely, He will lead you right into the storm. There are occasions in the New Testament when disciples were caught into the storm in their boat. There were in trouble not because they were doing wrong things, they were in trouble because they were doing things right, they were following Jesus, his directions. If we happen to be in the storms, we have a tendency to find a way around the problem, busy running to solve the issues within our capacity. Sometimes God wants to lead us straight into a storm that is when He will be revealed to the children of God. That is when He will teach us how to trust. We have to surrender ourselves to allow Him to mold our life, even when we think He failed, have the trust and wait for His time. The outcome might be different from what we thought it would be, but He who planted us, has also crafted us with His plan. Fear Thou Not, for I am with Thee. Shout it loud that the Lord is my shepherd and I shall not be in want.

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, in as much as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1 Peter 4:12-13

I always get myself reminded that the disciples would never have discovered truths about Jesus, if they have not followed and tasted Him in the storms. I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship. Own your Life, sail your ship with Him.

La Poursuite | Pursuit

From time to time, we see people running after those things that do not and never will belong to us. But we never stop. We are perhaps deceived into this believing that things would be within our clutches (or slightly outside of our grasp). We are also trapped by the thoughts that once in possession of these elusive stuff, we will be content and could not suppress a triumphant smile. We all are on a pursuit. We never had that quiet time to reflect and appreciate our tiniest joy in our life. We tend to chase unrealistic and ridiculous challeges and drain ourself. Our pursuit are never ending and a stage will come when we are likely to over-driven, miserable, unable to smell the flowers from our backyard or even appreciate and enjoy the beautiful sunset. Finally our time will also arrive.

Learn to appreciate what you have - before time makes you appreciate what you had.

Testimony

My New Birth: Revelations June 2010
==================

It’s been a year since I wrote a letter to my son thinking that it would be the last letter I’d be writing him in my life.
It’s been a year that I was healed by His Grace.
It’s been a year I wrote my testimony (My New Birth) immediately after my surgery for cancer.

Throughout this year, my Lord was upholding me with His righteous right hand. Throughout the year He delivered my feet from stumbling, my eyes from tears, my soul from death.

I looked for words to describe my amazing journey this past year. The words that I was searching for were already there, right before me. The Word of the Lord tells my story, I need no other words. From ignorance to absolute faith and then to salvation, He saved me as He has saved all men through all the ages!

He made me hear His voice on several occasions, at first I couldn’t understand. I waited patiently for Him to reveal His purpose in my life. "You do not realize now what I AM doing, but later you will understand." (John 13 : 7) God's voice thunders in marvelous ways; He does great things beyond our understanding. (Job 37:5)

But I knew His grace is sufficient for me, for His power is made perfect in weakness. (2 Corinthians 12:9)

I prayed fervently knowing His promise, “Though YOU have made me see troubles, many and bitter, YOU will restore my life again;from the depths of the earth YOU will again bring me up. ” (Psalm 71 : 20)

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for YOU are with me; YOUR Rod and YOUR Staff, they comfort me. (Psalm 23.4)

He set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. (Psalms 40:2). No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him. But God has revealed it to me through His Spirit.

I travelled to many countries and many cities this year to tell people of the work He did on me. I did not go with eloquence or superior wisdom. My revelation to others was not with wise and persuasive words, but with the truth about the healing touch I experienced in Him and that our faith may not rest on man's wisdom, but on God's power.

"Come to ME, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11 : 28) " This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it."(John 11 : 4) “for I AM with you to rescue and save you," (Jeremiah 15:20)

After the surgery and during the healing process, I lost some things which were important in my life, The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised. (Job 1:21b) “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.” (John 14 : 18) Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear A voice behind you, saying,"This is The way; walk in it." (Isaiah 30:21)
His Words are my strength. His Word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. – (Psalm 119 : 105) “Heaven and earth will pass away, but MY words will never pass away.” (Matthew 24 : 35)

Dear friend, Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to GOD. And the Peace of GOD, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Jesus Christ.(Philippians 4 : 6 – 7). Cast all your anxiety on HIM because HE cares for you.(1 Peter 5 : 7)
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. “Surely I AM with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28 : 20 )

Today I live by faith, not by sight. “See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.”( Isaiah 48 : 10)
I have faith in GOD that it will happen just as HE told me.(Acts 27 : 25). I am watching to see that His WORD is fulfilled in my life. I wait for GOD my SAVIOR; my GOD will hear me (Micah 7 : 7)

May The GOD of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in HIM. The GOD of peace be with you all. Amen.
