Mood: Sigh :(
Music: Chris Tomlin - Come Home Running
Okay for those that don't know, the past few days have been somewhat like shit. It got so bad I broke down in school. It was during a break though, thankfully. Still, crying twice in a day is a clear indication I'm not fine. But through everything, God has remained faithful. Today during CF worship, Jasmine talked about the prodigal son, and it really sounds like me. Like, we run away, but God's always there to welcome us with open arms. When I first read the parable, I thought the father was crazy. But God is full of so much love, he's always waiting there, for us to come back to Him.
And Pastor Joel's message on our personal value. We have value, because we are made in the image of God. And that alone is reason enough to warrant us precious in God's eyes.
I am just holding on to God more tightly than ever. I guess this trial was God's way of bringing me back to him. I asked God many weeks ago to bring me back to him, to play a more significant part in my life. Well, God answers prayers, just not in ways we expect. But I'll just take all these as training in character. So, be careful of what you wish pray for.
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance."
James 1: 2-3
In the chaos in confusion
I know You're sovereign still
In the moment of my weakness
You give me grace to do Your will
None But Jesus by Hillsong
Dear God, I really need you.
