When life gets hard

5/27/2015

This day is another wonderful day that God has given me. He knew what's in my heart so I don't have to worry. The reason why I thought that it's great and overwhelming to become a Christian is that God holds me everyday. He remains faithful to me. It may be hard to become one but you'll say, "it's worth it", when you put your trust in GOD. If you put God first before anything else, everything will be into their proper places. Ofcourse, because God is in control.

When life gets hard, it's time to face God (everytime, ofcourse). You may be persecuted but these bible verses show up which are sent by God for us :)

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." (John 14:27)

"if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself." (2 Timothy 2:13)

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." (John 1:9)

"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." (Matthew 6:33)

"But the LORD is with me like a mighty warrior; so my persecutors will stumble and not prevail. They will fail and be thoroughly disgraced; their dishonor will never be forgotten." (Jeremiah 20:11)

"10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Thereforetake up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, andthe sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints," (Ephesians 6:10-18)

There are still a lot of bible verses :D These are my life bible verses:

"23 Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men," (Colossians 3:23)

"11 Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil." (Ephesians 6:11)

Following God is not easy, but it made me stronger than before. It is not ordinary but it is worth it :D Praise God for everything He has done for us. He will never leave us nor for sake us.

How about your dreams? Well, God has greater in store for all of us :)

I thank GOD for everything he Has done for me. I do not regret following him. My favourite song is Well done by Moriah Peters. Here is the lyrics:

"Well Done"

I'm headed down this narrow road

Chosen by the few

And all that I know is

You told me to follow You

I'm taking a risk and leaving it all

Not knowing what I'll go through

But I'm not alone

As long as I follow You

So when my life's a leap of faith

I can hear You say

Well done, well done

I'm gonna chase You, Lord

I'm gonna show the world Your love, whoa

I'll run, I'll run

I'm gonna run this race

To hear You say well done

If people walk with me, talk with me, looking for truth

They're gonna find out soon

If they're following me, then they're gonna follow You

So let my life speak loud and clear

Lord, I wanna hear

Well done, well done

I'm gonna chase You, Lord

I'm gonna show the world Your love, whoa

I'll run, I'll run

I'm gonna run this race

To hear You say well done

I'm so glad that I get to serve You, Lord

You're the only One I'm living for, whoa

And I'm gonna run straight into Your open arms

I'm gonna follow You with my whole heart, whoa, whoa

Well done, well done

I'm gonna chase You, Lord

I'm gonna show the world Your love, whoa

I'll run, I'll run

I'm gonna run this race

To hear You say well done

I'm gonna run this race

To hear You say well done

I'm gonna run this race

To hear You say well done

Well done

Do you know what God has done for me? It's a lot to tell but I am sure of this: GOD IS GOOD. I can't explain. It can't be described just by words because of God's greatness :)
