Peace. I feel so much peace.

At the beginning of the day until the end of the day, my Lord Jesus kept on showering me with His word. His words speaks right through my weak heart and His words truly strengthened me! How amazing is His love.

Everyday, I wake up weak like I have no strength to face the day. But when I open the Bible, His words just gives me life.

"Those who look unto Him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed." Psalm 34:5

"...those who fear have NO LACK! The young lions want and hunger; but THOSE WHO SEEK THE LORD LACK NO GOOD THING." Psalm 34:9b-10

One more week and I will not have any job. As daunting as it may seem especially for a person like me who LOVES to work and loves to plan ahead, I feel peace believing that God will take care of me. Even though I won't have a job in a week, the word of God says that those who seek the Lord lack NO GOOD thing! That means, I don't lack anything. I have everything that I need in Him. What a comfort to hear those words! It gives me goosebumps! I feel His presence. Amazing.

"Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him out of them all." Psalm 34:19 In this time of afflictions, we are comforted to "be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him." (Psalm 37:7a)

Surely, being in a desert is not easy. At times, it comes knocking on you and you are reminded of your suffering or what you don't have. But in this desert that I am in, I find Jesus and His love showering over me. I believe in one thing: He is faithful. He allows us to face affliction to test us and then to bless us. Do we stand firm? Do we wait patiently unto the Lord? Do we continue to praise Him? I say "YES OF COURSE!" Not because of what we have but because of WHO HE IS no matter where we are.

So... I still don't know what lies ahead but surely it will be one great adventure with God waiting for Him to showcase His glory. For the meantime, serving Him and seeking Him and not compromising it for what the world has to offer. As a matter of fact, what this world has to offer is nothing compared to what God has in store. So we may NOT lose heart and LOVE JESUS more!
