Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God

Teach me to do Your will, For You are my God; Let Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.-Psalm 143:10
  

Create in me a clean heart, O God

Create in me a clean heart, O God; And renew a right spirit within me.-Psalm 51-10

I know that my heart is not pure 

So that's why I need God's help 

To clean my heart

And keep my Spirit refresh

Human spirit cannot endure alone

Without any help 

I could not do this alone

To be good or to be wicked

"For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked" (Psalm 73:3). He felt he may have even wasted his time in maintaining Godly values; "Surely in vain have I kept my heart pure; in vain have I washed my hands in innocence" (Psalm 73:13).


Some days you do wonder, the path you have chosen to be moral, to be good, to be a Christian. Is it worth it? Especially when you look around and see people who belief in other things or who are not moral or upright, who are just leading the life they want to live without restrictions and are being rewarded bountifully in terms of wealth, cars, material possessions and so on.

Is our success measured by all these ?

Thats the question you need to ask yourself.. Is the road worth the destination ?
The blessing that God gives is always in his time and he knows when you are ready for it. You just need to trust him and and his timing, and that he always will have your best interest at hand.

Trusting in God...learning to let go

I used to worry about my girlfriend as she travelled around the world for her job. I used to get her itinery and track he flights on the numerous flight and airport websites. Then after a while she stopped sharing her itinery and I would get upset. Then I figured it was all in God's hands. I would be too far away to do anything and worrying would not do me any good. I started to learn to let go and leave it in God's hands. Trust in him to take care of her and bring her back home safely.

There are things in this life that we do not have any control of or we can do nothing about. We need to learn not to carry all on our shoulders and to let go. Give our trust to God that all things he gives for our good.

Psalm 105:4 Seek the Lord and his strength...

Seek the Lord and his strength;
Seek his face continually;
Psalm 105:4

Psalm 139:23-24 Search me, God

Psalm 139:23-24 (New International Version, ©2011)

23 Search me, God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
24 See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.

No matter what you feel, think or do,
God knows what lies deep in your heart.
Your deepest thoughts, fears or longings
There is nothing that you can hide
From the one that made you
Your God
And Creator

Being human
We are full of weakness and temptations
There is nothing that we can do by ourselves alone
So we need to call upon help from our Father above
To help us over come our weakness

Trusting in the Lord Psalm 91:15

He shall call upon Me,
and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honour him.
Psalm 91:15

Such a blessing to know that you will never get an engage signal or missed call when you call on God. He will always be there to answer your call at any time. I still wonder how the switchboard to God would be like but definitely our it is beyond our human comprehension.

Psalm 9:10 - Seek the knowledge

Psalm 9:10
"Those who know Your name will trust in You, for You, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek You."

Sometimes we need to remember that not everything in our life is in our control and we need to place our trust in God who will never forsake us if we seek him and keep our trust in him.
Amen.

He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.

"I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.""— Psalm 91:2 (NIV)

Psalm 34:8 Refuge

"Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him."— Psalm 34:8 (NIV)

I sought the LORD

"I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears."— Psalm 34:4 (NIV)

In this unsettling times...typhoons, earthquakes, threats of war,
Remember the shelter that he has promised,
Seek him for comfort
And you shall find peace

Remembering those in Indonesia, Phillipines Taiwan, Sri Lanka, India and any one who is in harms way.

Bringing the world together

"Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together."— Psalm 34:3 (NIV)
