Back in this little corner voicing out thoughts deep inside me. It sounds a little sad that I still don't really find anyone who shares the same life value. I always told myself not to be one of them..but in real life, it's not like that at all.
Through the people I met in life, I learnt that people are all self-centered, including myself. I always told myself to be understanding, to be loving and to be kind to all people. But most of the times, what I got in returns are betrayals, being taken advantages on, taken for granted, bullies, hatreds and hurtful words. As time goes by, I told myself to be forgiving but it is not easy as it seems. People spreads deceitful words, even bringing other people down with discouraging statements just to disguise their vulnerability. It shows how weak we are in the realm of the flesh, where we let sinful thoughts take over us.
There are so much more to learn in order to be a God follower. I am still learning to deal with people in life which I am not so delighted to socialize with. Each time I use WWJD for my dilemma, it makes me realize His greatness and wisdom. I would realize how imperfect and timid I am. There are times I can't hold my anger and frustration at people. I start to shield myself from being hurt. I guess I am still not forgiving enough to people who hurts me so bad in the past. It still makes me fear to get close with people around me..
Lord, I need you in my life, renew me and cleanse my spirit everyday and let my spirit grows so I could edify people with my faith and deeds. Let me take Your words as my shield and live You out in my life.
You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.
-- Roman 8:9
