finishing the battle.. obeying the commander

I’m tired. My heart is gradually tearing apart. I don’t want to question why because I know the answer. Life involves solving puzzles and problems. But it's not all about sufferings. It's about whom we run to as we go through the trials and walk through the fire.

I just want to rest for a while. Anyhow, sometimes, the warrior is a child. Sometimes, we need to cry. Nonetheless, crying does not signify fear or weakness. We are human, we need it. The battle is still on, I just need to lay down my armour and take a break for just a little while.

Even though something seems to be crashing my heart now, my flesh is crying out: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear..” I believe, just like what He said to Joshua, the successor of Moses, God also wants me to take courage and be strong. My Lord is with me always. My hope is in the Lord. He will not leave me nor forsake me. My God is faithful. He loves me. No man can ever harm me.

Whatever problem it is that I am having right now, I am taking courage and leaning only to God. I know God wants me to feel uncomfortable right now because He wants me to run to Him for comfort. I will run to Him- No matter how long, no matter how far, no matter how tiring, no matter how hard, and no matter how foolish I may look in front of people, I will always run to my Lord. I will finish the battle, and obey my commander.

God is good all the time. Amen.
