My Walk with God: Stress.

Just now, I just experienced an extremely stressful situation. It's been so difficult to go through.

I just feel I have way too many expectations for people, that are extremely unnecessary. I ask God for forgiveness from all these expectations I have from others. Because really, everything else WILL disappoint us eventually. No matter what it is. This time, for me, it was because of a friend. I expected from this person to eventually become my best friend later on, and pressured him. However, after doing this, I immediately felt so much guilt. I repented to God, and felt so much peace afterwards.

Anyways, we just need to trust in God in everything He plans for our lives. We cannot rely on ourselves or others anymore. Everything WILL disappoint us. The only thing that won't upset us is Christ Himself. That's all we need. Just God.

Even though the problem may still exist, God is there to guide us through the pains, the sorrows, the stress, and our unhappiness. He's the only one we can rely on.

Verses

It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. (Deuteronomy 31:8)

It's absolutely correct! he will NEVER fail us or forsake us. We don't need to worry anymore. We just need to trust 100% in Him!

The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. (Psalm 9:9-10)

You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. (Psalm 32:7-8)

Praise the Lord! He has given us a place to stay: IN HIM!

It's absolutely wonderful the feeling I have right now. To be in the Spirit, turning to our God. So marvelous!

Currently, I'm listening to "What made you die for me?" by Living Stream Ministry.

What made you die for me?

I was your enemy.

You became a curse for me.

Oh, what a mystery.

My God, you died for me.

You died for me, your enemy.

We were his enemy, but now we can finally be in Him! Praise the Lord!
