God is my help. No one can condemn me if he does not do so. I must have confidence in God and not in Man. I pray that I have the strength to believe and trust him.

Lent is coming to an end. What have I done? Good question. I have not done anything. This lent is very different from the ones that I have in Singapore. I felt so close to God in observing myself and get myself involve in Lent activities but now in Hong Kong, as I am still trying to get myself settled down and searching for a community, I felt this Lent is wasted for me. Let me use this remaining time of Lent to truly reflect on Lent and let God take center stage.

At the favourable time I will answer you,
on the day of salvation I will help you.

 

I always ask when but I never like to give a time. I always felt giving someone a timeline is such a commitment to make. I felt that by giving a time mean that I have to stick to it and will feel bad if I do not meet it.  This could be the same what God is telling me. It is not so much about him not being able to meet it but it is about the timing. What is a favorable time? We have to trust the lord that he will give to us what is best for us when the time come. I got this following from Facebook which I felt suit how I feel now.

 

 

Me: God, can I ask You a question?
God: Sure
Me: Promise You won't get mad
God: I promise
Me: Why did You let so much stuff happen to me today?
God: What do u mean?
Me: Well, I woke up late
God: Yes
Me: My car took forever to start
God: Okay
Me: at lunch they made my sandwich wrong & I had to wait
God: Huummm
Me: On the way home, my phone went DEAD, just as I picked up a call
God: All right

Me: And on top of it all off, when I got home ~I just want to soak my feet in my new foot massager & relax. BUT it wouldn't work!!! Nothing went right today! Why did You do that?
God: Let me see, the death angel was at your bed this morning & I had to send one
of My Angels to battle him for your life. I let you sleep through that

Me (humbled): OH

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that would have hit you if you were on the road.

Me: (ashamed)

God: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick & I didn't want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work.

Me (embarrassed):Okay

God: Your phone went dead bcuz the person that was calling was going to give false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let you talk to them so you would be covered.

Me (softly): I see God

God: Oh and that foot massager, it had a shortage that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in the dark.

Me: I'm Sorry God

God: Don't be sorry, just learn to Trust Me.... in All things , the Good & the bad.

Me: I will trust You.

God: And don't doubt that My plan for your day is Always Better than your plan.

Me: I won't God. And let me just tell you God, Thank You for Everything today.

God: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I Love looking after My Children...

It was things like this. What have Jesus done? His water is medicinal. Are we then craving for this water? In our faith. Are we then allowing this water to heal us. We always use the term "dry season" to describe the time when we feel that God is far away. When is anything dry, it mean lack if water. This is then so true about our faith, when we do not feel God, we feel dry. I am undergoing such a stage now, my faith is so dry. The readings do not speak to me as much anymore. I pray that God show me a way that I can continue to administer to others and to myself.

Do we believe the God is our savior. If we do, why then are we doubting him after we pray to him. Have we forgotten the miracles that he have perform in our life. Then why do we still doubt. Think about how long we waited or how long we took to see and realize that miracle.

How much do I Love myself, God and those around me? This is a tough question as I do not know the answer. Am I being good and forgiving to myself as I am to others and am I good to God? I pray that in this Lent am I able to find an answer to this.

What is preventing us from accepting someone that is close to us as better for us. Especially in things that we took a longtime to learn or master. Today reading remind us again that we should always stay open and willing to listen. Just last night, I had some argument over some housework with my wife. Some of her words make me feel very bad and so are mine. Jesus have already warn us about this and can we learn and practice it.
