The wise man build his house upon the rock.
Thursday, December 1, 2011

Cell had us reflecting back on the events of the year and how God has been a part of it.

The year has been crazily eventful I guess. A whole range of feelings from bipolar scales. Friendship; loneliness. Acceptance; rejection. Joy; melancholy. Achieved; failure. Help; helped. Love; heartaches. As I recall a point as to how the year started, our birthdays came to mind. Guess it's the fall from the peak. I get a picture in my head when the tracks stop and the carriage just rides off downwards, spinning helplessly, into a unstoppable vortex. And afterwards its just jamming down on the brakes to slow the descent, though it felt more like a mole digging underground; one claw after the another, a cumbering resistive pace.

At least one thing that has stayed constant throughout this turbulent time, was God. through the good and the bad, the laughter and the strife, at my brightest and the darkest, He was always there to see me through it. Often I get distracted and turn away, but His faithfulness never fails. I wanna be the same fire I was during march last year. To be that light and warmth, be contagious, and to be passionate. Keep my eyes on Jesus.
“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Matthew 7 24:27

Second question was to think of a struggle currently that I'd wish for God's intervention.

Instantaneously, you came to mind. A quick flashback played out in my mind about our journey. Why I did things I do. All in all, I hope for the day, where the reasons of the tears I shed when I hear the word salvation, is because I'll be able to see you find within everything, the happiness and love you've been missing for so long, accept it in your heart, and that I may partake in your joy. But till then, I promise to persevere.

Love endures.
