Prayers

I pray for strength
and He gives me sufferings.
I pray for blessings
and He makes me empty.
I pray for patience 
and He doesn't answer my prayers yet.
I pray for breakthroughs
and He breaks me first.

I pray for success 
and I fail a lot. 
I pray for love
and I recieve hate. 

Life is whimsical; full of irony. 
God answers our prayers
differently to purify our character 
and to lean on His character. 

Indeed, He is a faithful God. 
Even it doesn't make sense
I'm glad, He doesn't answer my prayers
the way I expect Him to.

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither your ways my ways declares the Lord. For as heavens are higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:8-9

This phase of life can be scary because you never know if you will make it to the end. But these transitions are necessary for growth so you can grow like a plant planted by streams of water.

Discovering the blessing

"People are trying to bless themselves, the fulfillment we're trying to look in work, skyscrapers, in having wonderful spouse, in having children or making a lots of money, the blessing that we're looking for is actually in the face of God. The blessing we need is in Jesus himself." Tim Keller

Quiet Walks in Quiet Season

In this season, I've realized it's okay to outgrow perspectives, dreams, places, and people. It's okay not to fill the gaps, not to find answers, not to be extraordinary, not to fit in, and not to be in control. And I've realized GOD is all I need and I am living because of HIS grace.
