I used to blame myself for everything that happens in my life. I used to blame people around me and I questioned God about my life. "My life is just a mess, I am just a failure!"; instead of meditating the word of God, I'm confessing it almost every day of my life. It seems like everything isn't working out as I planned. I lose hopes and dreams, even my faith in Him. Yes, I've been struggling with my Spiritual Life as a follower of Christ, my relationship with Him, my trust, my purpose, everything!


How can I understand life with unanswered questions? How can I understand life when every single dream that my heart's desire are just added up to my unanswered prayers. I've been in the situation where I can no longer feel the presence of God, I don't even know if He's still listening or He's there for me. I was so down and was too hard on myself. I didn't give myself a chance and I ended up with bad decisions, one mistake after another, until I hated myself for what I've become.


Note to self: You can really never understand how cruel this world is and you can never overcome it by your own. You don't have to know / understand every plan He prepared for you because His ways are higher than your ways. Every single move you're making is very important; and if you're not in the right state of mind, I don't think you could make the right one. "Do not make any permanent decision based on your temporary emotion" , yes it's commonly used but remains powerful. You can't be so impulsive every time because you can never undo things. Don't do something that you might regret in the end.


Yes life is unfair, life can be miserable, it actually pulls you down in some situation; but if there's only one thing that you have to remember, God was, is and will always be with you. He can easily turn your life around even before you know it. Life is hard but TAKE IT EASY because the Lord has overcome world! If you'll just think about it, you can realize that life isn't that hard, you just have to give it all to Him and stop doing it by your own because at the end of the day, it is 'He' who will finish all of it. You have your own purpose in life, do not waste it for something you can't actually control. Do not be afraid to start again, do not afraid to ask for another chance, He is waiting for you! Do not take Him out of the picture and always walk with Him until you see that life is so wonderful.
