I just finish watching the movie Hannah Montana, and I realised that there are many things that one can see in the movie. I am reminded of my walk with God. Sometimes, my working life really do take a hold of me and threaten to pull me away from my faith, but like this movie, there is a need for us to break free from all these and go back to your roots. Sometimes I allow things in my life to crowd me, times spent online doing nothing, times spent at work slaving to get things done, and all the rest… but yet when it comes to spending time with God, when it comes to praying, when it comes to just being still before me, my reply to God would be, sorry Lord, I’m just soo tired today, sorry Lord, I just don’t feel like it right now, and there would be tons and tons of other excuses. But if it comes down to the bareness of it all, God, forgive me for my spiritual laziness, forgive me for being such a lukewarm person, forgive me for choosing to neglect you than to give you more of my time oh Lord.
I guess it’s about time to come clean from it all, and really, really get it down with God. At the end of the day, with everything that I have and do not have right now, I know what is really important to me. I truly know that I cannot live with God, without Jesus in my life. I know that I am nothing, I am no one without God, without Jesus in my life. And it was through Him, that I have accomplished so much in my life. It was Him who has blessed me with such a wonderful life, wonderful family, wonderful friends. It was Him who, who is the essence of who I am. For He is who He is, my God, my Saviour, my Creator, My Comforter, My Provider, My Healer, My Prince of Peace, My All in All.
The greatest gift that one could have given me is life, and Lord, forgive me for wasting so much of what You have given to me. Teach me oh Lord, to cherish this life that you have given to me. Teach me oh Lord, to come and bare it all to You each and every day, strip me oh Lord, off my pride and whatever that is withholding me from You. Lord, I want to come before You, to be naked before Your eyes oh Lord, off with my shirt of pride, with my dress that is blocking You from reaching deep inside of me oh Lord.
With whatever that I have and whatever that I am lacking, oh Lord, I want to come before You, seeking You, for You are my helper… and only You oh Lord, can be the one to heal me, to make me whole once again. I yearn once again for that deep embrace, for that deep relationship, for that satisfaction of just being able to be still before You oh Lord.
It’s just the beginning of my climb oh Lord, but I will be sure to enjoy this climb, knowing that You are with me, and that the view is just going to be great even though it may be tough.
Thank You Lord, love you heaps!
