For a couple weeks, i was in spiritual dryness, even I didn't know how to pray because i went through into exhausted things.
Preaching today is so very good. Taken from 1 Samuel 17...it was about how David lose Goliath which is impossible in human view. What are the lessons that i can take and i can relate with my life now :
1. Everything happened by God permission
Whatever troubles and problems that i went through, it happened by God permission.
My divorce, unanswered prays and other bad things happened because there are purposes in my life. What are those? I am sure those are for my kindness, to make me the better man. To teach me to depend on God in every situation. To trust God when i think there is no way in every problem i come through. Sometimes the bad things that happen in our lives put us direction on the path to the best things that will ever happen to us.
Romans 8:28
When David fought Goliath, David didnt use armament like Goliath used. But, finally David could beat Goliath... See...i need no worry if i am facing the giant. I just need to rely on God to face my 'Goliath'
3. Surrender to God
Maybe It is the hardest thing that i can accept. In my human sense, of course i am glad to take good things in life. But i have to learn that life doesnt always go to plan. Watch this :
Pray of Jesus Christ in Gethsemane
For now, i wish one thing happened in my life. I want to be a wife and a mother. I dont want to be single forever. After my divorce, i have been longing for finding a good man to be my husband and father of my children. Will God gives me second chance to marry again?
If it would not happen can I say : not my will. but Yours, be done... Can I keep worshiping God?

Daniel 3 : 13-18
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand.. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.”
Pray of Jesus Christ in Gethsemane
“Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
