God Is Good No Matter How Painful And Difficult Your Situation Is
I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Acts 27:13, NIV This verse is difficult to believe in, especially when I am going through a challenging season in life. I somehow find myself doubting the goodness of God whenever I face unexpected situations that break my heart. When life throws so many overwhelming problems, I often think that God no longer cares about me. But this verse reminds me that God is good no matter how painful and difficult my situation is. I find it amazing that David remained confident in the Lord despite all the challenges He was…

Romans 12:15, NIV
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Romans 12:15, NIV Sometimes, it’s difficult to rejoice with those who rejoice when you are carrying heavy burdens inside. When you are still going through the healing process and you are trying your best to survive. On the other hand, it’s also not easy to mourn when your heart is experiencing victories and breakthroughs. But God reminds us to be considerate of other people’s feelings. Let’s not just focus on ourselves. Instead, we need to learn how to serve others despite the difficulties that we are facing. We need to carry our cross and show others who Jesus is. It…

You can Learn from the People you have Met
Other people could be the reason why you are motivated to go on and fight in life. They could be your source of inspiration and strength to remind you to get up whenever life throws problems on you. On the same strand, people could also be the reason to hurt you. Their words can make or break you. You start to distance yourself from them and try to avoid meeting more people in your life. Sometimes, pain can cause you too much to lose the trust that you once quickly built. As you go on in life, you start to be conscious of who you would let into your life.…

I will never Feel the Same Happiness if I wished for Things to be Different
There are days when I just can’t understand what’s going on in my life, and I can’t help but pray for things to be different. I would beg God to change my situation and help me. I would ask Him to put me in a place where I can find rest and peace. And the good thing is, most of the time, He won’t give me what I wanted. It’s great news because if He had listened to the cries of my heart, then I would never feel this kind of joy right now. Maybe if He changed my situation, I would never learn to value His blessings and cherish…
