Faith in God - Accepting His way



God's way is always the best way. Many times instead of trusting Him, I often use my own methods, my own ways to solve any problem. When the problem remain unsolved or become bigger, I began to call on Him for help. But though I am faithless, yet He remains faithful. When I learned to release all my fears, my failures, mistakes into His hands, I experienced His peace residing over me, a peace not as the world giveth, but is the peace of God. This peace helps to settle my heart and trust Him to direct my path. (John 14:27)

The following verses are very reasurring and encouraging. Our God is a God in whom we can truly place our trust.

1. "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." (Jeremiah 29:11)

2."The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord … "(Psalm 37:23)

3. "A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps." (Proverbs 16:9)

4. "But whoever listens to me will dwell safely, and will be secure, without fear of evil." (Proverbs 1:33)

5."Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." (Proverbs 3:5)

6. "Thus says the Lord, Your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way you should go.” (Isaiah 48:17)

7."I will instruct you and teach you in the way should go; I will guide you with My eye." (Psalm 32:8)

8."For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death." (Psalm 48:14)

9."The Lord will guide you continually …" (Isaiah 58:11)

The above verses give me assurance that our God will fully guide and direct my steps in this life.

May these verses also encourage you!

3Ds - Declutter, Detox & Debug

Just learnt these 3 words in a seminar - De-clutter, De-tox, De-bug In order to hear God clearly, I need to constantly apply these 3Ds in my life:- 1) De-clutter Most of the times I have a hard time to discard things and I tend to keep them and then forgot about them.  Things get piled out and it does affect my search for important things.  Likewise, I also have many ungodly thoughts that can clutter my thought and keep me from hearing God.  It takes times to de-clutter and I need God to show me what it is that is hidden, which He desires for me to discard, so that there is a room to hear His voice. 2)  De-tox Toxic attitudes & behaviors that I allow into my life affects my hearing and has impact on my walk with God.  There are many lies that the enemy has planted in my thought life and this can impact my relationship with God. I need to discern and identif...

Changed Basket

Someone shared a beautiful story with me today. Passing it on: Why do we read bible even if we can't understand or remember ???? An old Farmer lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa woke up early sitting at the kitchen table reading the bible. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could. One day the grandson  asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the bible just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Bible  do?" The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water." The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river wit...
