the Father's love in 3P's :)
after having frivolously squandered the past weeks in self-pity and depression and along the way liberally spending a crazy lot on good(which actually means awfully calorific and fattening) food i'm trying to get back on track without much success. when i lament about God giving me the same test over and over again and how it's killing me, church mates reply that it's because i never learn. here are a few who can see so clearly from the outside. indeed, i never learn, do i? yet i thank God for these messengers and also for a spirit who tells me that i gotta have a sense of urgency in resolving my issues. yeap so with this same spirit i shall get up and get back.
all this while that i've been turning to food for comfort, though it may seem somehow that i'm mistakenly seeking refuge from the world, yet i sense a gratitude deep within my heart towards God, for always providing me with what He knows will cheer me up. in my case of course, i get to binge on my favourite delights- sweets and pastries and virtually everything you can find at a patisserie. i don't suppose some people can actually afford that which may seem to be a luxury. so YAY praise God. an extra dose of sweetness comes from knowing that even in trying times, God's comforting little nuggets of love are still delivered all the way:) i'd like to think that the privilege of being able to afford yummies are God's way of loving me- according to what i like and what i'm like- God loves us PERSONALLY:)
and for all the times that i've prolly annoyed God with my incessant complains and even accusations(and worse:( ), He's never once picked me up by the scruff of my neck and shook me hard to knock some sense in. no, He's always been generously patient. for we beat on His chest from within the circle of His arms. the Father's love goes this far. God loves us PASSIONATELY:)
then comes the hope that leads me on and sustains my walk- God's promises. i just happened to see one of my favourite verses on the cover of my organiser that i've scrawled on some months ago and conveniently forgot about:(
"You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands."
(isaiah 55:12)
and with God's promises come all strength and sustenance and every goodness in His spirit's power. God loves us POWERFULLY:)
so that's my God with His love in 3P's and actually a whole lot more! but yeah i hope this read will bless you!:) Jesus loves you:)
