I believe that God started to move during the prayer and fasting. I was praying to be closer to Him, since I became inconsistent during the latter part of last year. I was blinded by the world; I was devoured by its ways. I missed the happiness that praising Him brings. The happiness brought by any material thing is nothing compared to the one you feel when you are glorifying His name, knowing that you are secured no matter what. Before 2013 ended, I promised God that I will be more loyal to Him this year. I wanted to be be more desperate for Him. I attended 6:30 prayer meetings at Victory Ortigas for one week. The feeling is so priceless. The pastors anointed us with oil at church today. I was crying while giving Him praise. I felt the Holy Spirit moving. I even got goosebumps. I was so awed that even if I forget Him sometimes, He never does. I know that He is tired of my sins, but still, He continues to love me.
Lord, Thank You for not giving up on me. I have done You wrong for so many times. I turned my back on You, yet You still listened to my prayers. Thank You for sending your Only Son who died on the cross to cleanse our sins. Thank You for the forgiveness. To be closer to You is one of my faith goals. You are starting fulfill it. Thank You for keeping me focused. I promise to do my part, too. I will always hold on to You. In the times when nothing seems right, help me find You. Holy Be Thy Name, Lord. I love you, Father God and Jesus!
Here's to more Christ-centered 2014!
