Feeling very vexed and confused recently... There're many temptations out there waving at me, wanting me to stumble and fall... Unfruitfulness in my spiritual life and my group, bgr-temptation and people around me speaking about the attractive things of the world. This is reality, in fact, it's more than reality itself...
All these things makes me wanna give up...
Whenever I look back at my life, I see shadows of darkness and the shades of light. It has been a couple of years since I've been a Christian and I'm not letting anything to stop me from serving Him, but things don't go the way you want it to be, or do they? Familiarity breeds content but I really want to be a new Christian everyday, with new zeal and child-like heart, but it seems hard. I don't wanna be too "complicated" or "sophisticated" to serve Him just because I've been serving Him all these while. Sometimes it feels that I'm far from Him, really far that I can hardly see Him.
101 things are out there telling me to fall, but I withstand all those with Christ's help. Because I know that once I fall, it's hard for me to pick myself up. I shall strive on and not give up, I shall persevere on and not capitulate...
Pray for me please...
Eilton, temptations are all over us but is a matter of choice whether do you want to fall or not. Is so tough to tell yourself NO when everything seems so attrating on earth. Well, as a christian i face my struggles everyday too! But i am always reminded that wanting to be MAD(Making a Difference) for God, there is a high price to pay! Is easy to say, but remember your prayer alone conquer the struggles you have.
*Eilton and God make the MAJORITY and the rest are MINORITY!
Will pray for you, that God will always be your strength in all that you do!
When God is far, guess who had moved! Remember the story called Footprints?!
"No temptations has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it!" 1 Corinthians 10:13
Jesus loves Eilton and Eilton is God's beloved!

Eilton. although i may not know you very well but wanna encourage you to continue to rely on Jesus. Jesus is the centre of everything remember? Life may be tough, but life with jesus is tough yet fun... Knowing God is such a great thing, i never regretted. have you? God works in the way that you may not understand, well... Lift it up to him then, since he is God.
