The Return...

This is not about the triller/horror movie la...

To me... it's The Return to God.

I have been away for some time... away as in... putting God aside in the circumstances I was going through... although I pray... I cry out to God... but.. the relationship with Him... it's juz not there...

Have I FULLY returned? Nope.. not yet... I'm still on the way back... stumbling and falling along the way... but I'm coming back. =)

Many times... when someone faced with problems... we would commit the situation to God... and offer to pray for this person. But honestly... how much faith do we have that God will really work things out???

I was taken a ride in the storm lately... many things happened... and people tell me... Pray.. and God wil work things out. Yep.. in my heart, I sincerely pray that God will work things out... but... DO I REALLY BELIEVE???

Reminds me of this verse :-
Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” ~ Matthew 14:31 (NIV)

Faith needs to be built. It's like the muscle of our body... the more we exercise... our muscle will grow stronger. It's the same with our faith with God. If we exercise faith in Him in small things... our faith for Him to do great and mighty things will grow even stronger!!!

It's easier said than done... I know.

But... God has always been very very very faithful. I admit.. when I was IN the situation.. I struggle alot... I asked God.. "why me?" Then... as I stumbled and picked myself up again.. and eventually God opened the doors... I began to realize... God work things out in His own ways. We often want God to do this, do that for us, but do we ask God.. "what is it You want us to do for You???"

Many don't. I'm guilty of that.

But... as I run the race of life... as I walk with God through this journey... I've grown stronger... I do fall again and again.. but everytime after I've overcome it... I've come out a better person. =)

And I thank God for NOT giving up on me.. although I strayed away again and again... =P
