God is God, man is man

I used to say I thank God that I received Him in my life. But I have come to experience that it is Him who first formed me, understood me and loved me. I have nothing to offer Him that deserves His unfailing protection and hedge around me. All I can offer is my love and obedience to His will, the fear of the Lord saving my life every moment. It's not a feeling. It's an experience. It's an experience backed up by His Word!

I have seen much to see how much I have been saved from. I have tasted much to know how much I have been bestowed. Much is given, much is required. There are reasons why I have so much, so little to the world but so much to Him and me.

Throughout all these, I have not wavered. 
I could not sing and praise at times. 
All I could was stare at the words, devouring them deep into my soul. 
Man's words, ya, they do comfort but they come with very limited understanding, no matter how empathetic that person is or tries hard to be. 
That's why God is God and man is man.

I pray all my life even till the day I meet Him, I will treasure Him. 
No matter what happens, Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever!

Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your generous Spirit.
Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall be converted to You. (Psalm 51)
