Isaish 55:9
"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
Woke up pretty late for church today 'cos ive been sleeping very late these days. but i was glad that i made it for service or else i would have missed out on the great word of Rev. Casey Treat. his message was amazing today and he touched on things that i could actually feel myself relating to in my life right now. he talked about how prosperity in our lives will only come if we prosper in our walk with God by sanctifying ourselves in the truth. because it is by walking in the truth that God sets us free..from depression, fear, anxiety and problems in our lives; it is by walking in the truth that we learn to trust in God's promises and know that He will provide for everything in our lives. i have realised how selfish i was in the past, where i attributed all my accomplishments and achievements to myself...my capabilities, my hard work, my diligence. i had never once included God in my achievements. i only seeked Him when i needed help and when i needed someone to solve all my problems. it was a selfish and self-centred relationship. but as i began to encounter disappointments and realised that there are some things in life which are totally beyond my control, God started to show me His way and brought me out of my pride.
as i begin to reach a cross-road in my life right now... not knowing where to go, how to go about making decisions and feeling afraid of what will happen, this is when i know that i can no longer depend on myself because there is only so much that i can do. at times, we may get overwhelmed by too many problems, but as we begin to put our faith and trust in God and prosper in our walk with Him, He will begin to prosper us in all things. =)
