I personally am going through something that's very sad and indeed very heavy. A burden that everyone is carrying or definitely carried before. It's not an easy duty to follow the 5th commandment as it is written in Exodus 20. Everything you do is in vain except you follow all the commandments in the book.
Things has not been easy for me especially during this raya break. Where problems are becoming more and more prominent, problems which i never even thought it would exist. I confess that my heart is growing cold especially during these few days, and it simply breaks my heart. Even as it is written seek first His kingdom and his righteousness, and all the others shall be added unto you. I felt even discouraged when the more i tried to seek the Lord, the more problems arise as i began to neglect things that are important around me.
What Uncle William shared the other day just came into my mind.
'Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.'
Matthew 11:28-30
I guess this is where obedience comes in. It's not about how long you worship, or how many tears you've shed during worship, it's not about how convicting your prayers are or how many bible verses you can quote correctly. It's simple and straight forward.
BE OBEDIENT AND FOLLOW.
As i was just chilling with my hostel mates and listening to my mp3. I believe The Lord reminded me of his power, and indeed I'm not in the position to question His sovereignty. God says, ' Wait, Watch, and Behold as i part the sea.'
Trust in the Lord that He WILL bring you through. It might not be in a pleasant way and it might be in a way that you'd never even expect it to be. Just be quiet, be still, and watch.
'If my heart has grown cold, there Your love will unfold,
as You open my eyes to the work of Your hands.'
