Age to age He stands, Time is in His hands...

How true this line holds to each and every one of our lives.
How we may choose to roam around this earth searchin to fill the little emptiness on our hearts,
attempting to seek happiness and pleasure from things around us,
predominantly with regards to material wealth.
this thing bout money that we entrust so much of our security and lives upon.
how so often, we falter.
and one would come to a realisation, how does money come into the picture of my happiness?
yes, u can have all the kinds of food or gold u might lust for.
at the end of the day, is that what you need?
or is it a mere want, to long for greater material wealth?

So, ever so often, many of us falter,
and thats where majority of people who become inactive in their spirituality,
actually come back to church.
only when we feel like shit inside of ourselves, then we begin to question and wonder.
and each time we come back, pouring our hearts out,
we'll be reconciled inside, with Him and with His will in our lives.
People feel good again, and many will step out of the gates of church feeling uplifted again.
and for many, this cycle plays on.
Feeling so miserable, come back, and leave on a high. only to drop down again eventually.
its a pity, how some might not even go thru this cycle,
deciding that the ending of one's life is a better option.

imagine the hurt and heartbreak you'll give to ur loved ones and friends,
as u depart from the face of this earth.
what a departing present from you to them.
and yeah, it does hurt me a hell lot to see a person,
esp any young person, leave this place just like that.

how can one end up in such a situation?
when our hearts are closed up to that extent,
that we fail to see any hint of positivity and love in our daily lives.
it is a very real situation, when something gets u down,
and u allow urself to drown in ur pathetic misery.

and yet amidst all of ur self-proclaimed misery,
there He is, standing ever so tall, watching over you.
How He offers his grace and love through all the friends and loved ones around you,
or maybe even through that 1 solitary friend that you might have.
that 1 person who talked and listened to you,
when the whole world just laughs and neglects you.
that, a listening ear of 1 friend, is indeed a blessing in itself.
Hence, in my humble opinion,
its a matter of the open-ness of our hearts,
whether we are not so blinded by our own hurt,
to be receptive and receive His little blessings to get you going fine in life.

Dont know what prompted me to rant all of these,
but it simply came from listenin to this very popular christian track.
Listening and watching it played live by Tomlin,
just brought out the inner gratitude in me once again.
guess that spurred me to write this. heh.

On another note......papers are over.
life has started once again ;)

Hopefully i'll be able to wake up on time to have a lil futsal with the guys later. heh.

Many blessings He has been working on and giving so abundantly,
and I am beginning to see the fruits of His will.
Amen.

Goodnight everyone :)

How great is our God, truly great...
