Remembering one's Desire
The world has made us desire for a lot of things. I remember a time when I used to daydream. I imagined myself driving an expensive sports car while going home to my dream house. I was enjoying those moments but then I realized that more than the material desires of my heart, something is still missing. Its a question of what to prioritize if I were to live and pursue a good and better life. None of us knows before hand the exact time of our death but what we do know is that we will all die.
I just thought that i need to ensure to the very best of my ability to have a life and ask God to grant me the grace of salvation. I kind of realized that I was so absorbed with myself that God had no space in my heart. I may have known God by knowing what is right and what is wrong but i had failed to seek God's kingdom. It just came to mind that i must work my way to be closer and have a personal relationship with our God.I knew that time that the kingdom of God is already at work at that very moment of my life.
These memories of how i've known God personally has given me the chance to appreciate the effort given to me by my family, my widowed mom especially my eldest sister in bringing me to the CFC community which became the venue of my faith to the Lord our God. As part of the Music ministry, I witnessed how God's gentle presence comes upon the congregation through the praising and worship songs that we sing while playing the instruments with other members of the music ministry.
Desiring God may not be easy but i may say that it will be worth it. May we constantly desire the Lord our God, for in desiring Him,We reap his Blessings. May God be praised !
May We Desire God in this Sign of times
