I have written so many drafts on different topics that I am passionate about, but haven't brought myself to post on this blog because none of the post seems good enough. But today I am posting this even if it's not perfect, because this is important news for everyone to hear.
A lot of my friends tells me that they don’t know why God is not talking to them, I have that question as well and I have been exploring the reasons behind it, is it because we are not good enough Christians? Is God real? When you can't feel God or connected to God it is hard to do what he ask us to, you don’t know why you are doing these things for. But once you encounter God, he opens your eyes, you will see it as a privilege to even be able to praise Him, let alone share the good news with others. But the big question is, how do I encounter God?
I am a very emotional person, but I like to look strong in front of others. It has been a while since God touched deep in my heart and brought tears to my eyes in Sunday service. Tonight I let my tears flow, I felt something in my heart as I opened my heart to Jesus. It was not because of the songs the band were leading, it was my heart that really seeks God that let Him into me.
I let Him into parts of my life that I never want anyone to see, I confessed my sins first. God is Holy, He dislikes sins, so the first step to get closer to God, we have to get rid these sinful parts of our life. To repent, we promise that we never want to go there anymore. "whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. - Philippians 4: 8"
Then praise Him, He has forgiven your sins. With all your heart, sing praises to Him, shout praises. Worship Him, no greater love can exist. Most importantly, Seek HIM with ALL your HEART. Why would he answer you and come to you if you didn’t even knock on Him door? "YOU WILL SEEK ME AND FIND ME WHEN YOU SEEK ME WITH ALL YOUR HEART. - Jeremiah 29 : 13" Until you have given everything in your life to God and ask Him to guard you through your life, don’t give up on God. Walk the journey with God, carry the kingdom with you wherever you go. You will live differently, your eyes will be open to see what is truly important in God's eyes, you will do everything to give glory to God's kingdom.
I hope this has encouraged you to have a personal relationship with God, where he is the one driving your life, not the earthly things. Ask Him what are the changes you need to make, trust Him, live in Him. Don’t wait until you think you are perfect or have your life sorted, now is the time.
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find ; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receivers; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened. - Matthew 7:7-8"
