Look back



A few saturdays ago I was by myself driving and I decided to have a chat with God. I prayed, "God I don't think You can get me out of this problem. I wanna believe in you & I have faith and all. But the way things are looking I really doubt it. Lord, I wanna believe in you but its so hard. I'm just losing faith now. Lord help me believe."

Surely enough God answered me back. Sunday morning message God answered me back. Remember at Exodus how the Israelites got out of the Egypt and passed thru the Red Sea. If you were there you would have witnessed one of the greatest miracles, you would of never forgotten the image of walking pass a wall of waters. I think this is the first Sea world park. Let's not also forget the plagues that happened not so long ago. Point is if you were there you would have witnessed God's guiding hands 1st hand. But wait a few chapters later same people, same witnesses complaining that5 God has left them and they would have been better off at Egypt. They forgotten what God has done for them. Yeah how quickly I've forgotten how God has rescued me during my time of trouble. Let me try to think back:

1.) Saved my mom from sickness
2.) Rescued me when I was sick
3.) Guided me throughout my college and graduation
4.) Helped me out during the hard exams.
5.) That subject that I thought that i would not have passed. I passed
6.) Saved our business when things were not looking bright.
7.) There was this time I was lost, good thing found my way back.
8.) During my time of temptation, He kept me strong.
9.) That heartache He helped me recover from.
10.) How about that camp that had lots of problems. Everybody went home safely.
11.) That car that slid and missed me by a few inches
12.) During my time of sadness, He comforted me.

I can still continue writing on how God has continually rescued me from my troubles I thought I would never get out off. During our discipleship we had a topic about journaling. I just realized how important journals are. We as humans tend to be forgetful. When you write down things on your journal, you look back at the events of your life and remind yourself how God has led you. I'm going to put a tag on this entry. And I'm going to see a few years from now how God is going to get me out of this trouble.

VS.



White Dog vs. Black Dog

Achi Nenel shared this during our back-up training, hope I got it right. There was a professor who told his students that he owned 2 dogs a White cute lovable dog and a black ferocious angry dog. Problem is the two dogs don't get along very well and they fight all the time. So his students asked "Who wins?". The professor answered "The one I feed wins."

Well the white dog represents our talents and potential, while the black dog represents our fears and insecurities. Think about it :)
