Hands from Heaven

How often do you see your life in the roads of darkness? How well did you fair through your life as trials and despair struck your vulnerable heart? And how better did you become as you go on with life inspite of the mistakes you have incurred in the past? Can you count the ways and the times you comfortably sit and talked with your love ones despite the heaviness you feel inside?

Indeed, there must be something or someone that made you feel better whenever pain, sorrow and agony strike your heart. You feel better not because your emotions subsided for good but because there is God that made the whole thing alot better despite your distance to Him, despite your unfaithfulness and despite your disobeying attitude. There must be really God that forgives and eases the burden away and made you feel new and whole again. There is really God.

Oftentimes, doubt attacks us. Prior events of misery and sense of hopelessness draw us away from God. And that, God feels sad whenever we took our way out from Him. We are all selfish, we are only concerned with our feelings, of how intense our emotions were and how we were greatly carried away by it, but thats not the point. Its not about our emotions or how we feel but its OUR FAITH towards God. Yeah, we all feel grief and noone is spared from that. But our life is not about  how happy or sad we feel, its all about God. Its all about Him that everyday in our lives He sustains us through everything. We get good grades not because of our superb ability to analyze questions and give correct answers but it is how our good Lord inspires us to do all things with His guidance, with His intellect and His unconditional Love. Always, we forget about God, We fail to give Him thanks in the morning for a good night and later in the day as we commit mistakes, we forget to ask for His forgiveness. It is sad, i can say because this very thing i am talking is the one i have experienced that made me so regretful. God did not ask everything from me, neither  my whole time, my presence and my day. He just ask for a moment for me to talk to Him. But what i did, i squandered everything. 

Really, im ashamed all i have done. I remembered one familiar sentence, "In the pursuit of wrongdoing, one steps away from God." Have it appeared to you this line with its heaviness? Have you reconsidered the times you were awfully wrong and yet you continue to live your life in the squabbles of nothingness and vanity? I am no perfect person nor a righteous man. All of the life's unavailing journey, i have been into it but what have i got? Nothing. Now, is the time of reconcialiation. There is no right time in going back to God. Everyday is an opportunity to be with Him. 

Wherever i am now, I can be certain that no matter how many times i folded and slipped, the Loving mercy of my God will make a way for me.
