"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.' - Prov 3:5-6

i'm confused, scared & i feel trapped. but i trust You.

'... we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulations produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope.' - Rom 5:3-4

'Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.' - Rom 5:5

-----------------------------------------

renew that love, Lord. the love for people, & the ability to forgive.

i will forgive, because You forgive / forgave me. i will remember that forgiveness is a GIFT, not a reward.

take away the disappointments, as disappointments breeds resentment & leads to bitterness.

take away my pride, i want to stop judging & start loving.

-----------------------------------------

i was looking through my favourite random verses. i actually saw Rom 5:5 before i saw Rom 5:3-4. now it all makes sense..... it's true when they say, things happen for a reason.

im glad i kept all the sermons.. all my bible study books. & the book where i wrote all my favourite verses.

'faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of God.'

it IS true.
