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!

New lawyer Darren Tan once spent 10 years in jail PUBLISHED IN ST ON AUG 25, 2014 11:47 AM

I love to hear testimonies of God's transforming works in a person's life.  It encourages me & I hope when I post it here, it encourages you too!    Mr Darren Tan with his proud parents - Mr Tan Chon Kiat and Madam Ong Ai Hock. The new lawyer changed the course of his life while he was behind bars.  BY CHANG AI-LIEN SENIOR CORRESPONDENT Darren Tan, 35, is finally a full-fledged lawyer. He reached that milestone yesterday when he was called to the Bar during a mass ceremony at Nanyang Technological University. It was a far cry from his shaky start in life when drugs and gang activities led to over 10 years behind bars and 19 strokes of the cane. "This is the culmination of what I've been working towards for the last 10 years," he told The Sunday Times. "It's like waking up from a dream and finding out your dream has become reality." His life of crime began at the age of 14, and he was in and out of prison for offences that ...

A eagle story

Got this story from an email and find it very meaningful. Please read on ... There is a story about a little eagle that fell out of its nest and landed in a turkey farm. The eagle grew up among the turkeys and, although he looked a bit different, he learned to waddle like a turkey, bob his head like a turkey, and act like a turkey. One day the young eagle looked up into the sky and saw a beautiful eagle soaring above. The little eagle in the turkey yard thought, Oh, I would love to be able to do that! As the eagle soared overhead, it looked down and saw the young eagle below. Suddenly it swooped down to the ground and asked, "What are you doing here?" The little eagle replied, "I am just here in the turkey yard where I have always been." The great eagle looked and said, "Spread your wings, boy. You do just what I do. Follow me." Then he flapped his wings and lifted off the ground. The young eagle tried it, too. "Wheeee! This is all right!" "...

Loving one another

1 John 4:20b. .. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. The above verse is a very good reminder.   We need to love not only in words but in deeds. Just visited a brother who was sick.  He could not come for the church meeting as his sickness has handicapped him.  But praise God, I saw the love of the brothers and sisters who take turn to care for him.  To fetch him to the meeting hall and also to read the bible with him.  By so doing, they have strengthened his faith. 1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. 1 John 3:18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. I have read from a blog on how to care for one another: First Thing Is Prayer If you really love your neighbor, the first thing you will do is pray for them. As a human you are li...
