1 John 1:5-10

These verses are simple yet heavy.

The message I got?:

Walk the Talk! Don't just say without actually doing something about it, you're only trying to fool those around you & yourself. The all-knowing Father can see & know. For make ourselves examples of God & preach by our actions. Let us not be hypocrites, but do it for His sake.

I hope that in everything I say, think & do, I do it for His sake. I hope that I would infuse God in every aspect of my life, so much so that praying & talkimg about him is a norm for me & it'll come naturally.

Ephesians 4:25 - 5:2

How apt that I should have missed yesterday's reading & read it today instead. For today, I received troubling news, news which troubled my heart,stirred my emotions & sparked the hurt within me.

Yet once again, God tells me let it all go away from me that I should be cleansed of such turmoil. That I should not speak of others in anger or negativity no matter how I feel. And for once, I can finally say, I needed to hear that to close.

No more will I go back, but now lead a new renewed life. God has put me on this path for a reason, and for His sake, I should live it fully. Come what may my Lord, use me as your instrument. I am worthy to be called a child of God & I am thankful & I am proud!

Long Time Coming

Hey,

so i heard the news today
its good its great
cant say i didnt see it coming
just didn't expect it so soon
please dont make the same mistake
keep in mind my very words
karma will always have its way
i may have "lost"as was "claimed"
but in truth i gain all
dont worry i wont go back
nor would i barter my love
i couldnt i wouldnt
im not as heartless
thanks for my dream fulfilled
i want nothing more
i can now move on
nothing but a distant memory
how i feel will never change
but how i react will never be the same
so go ahead and move on
here's wishing all the best
wishing blessings of happiness

as for me
i couldnt be happier as i am now
im in love truly madly deeply
and i know its forever
thanks thanks and thanks
im eternally grateful

I've got Him
I've got her
I've got them
I need no one else

Sincerely,
Bliss

Luke 15:11-32

This parable of the prodigal son never fails to touch my heart or tug on my heart strings. I've studied this parable, seared into my memory for Bible Knowledge in school last time. It truly is such a fascinating passage (at least to me) because of all its hidden meanings & messages.

How it truly reflects my life & how no matter how lowly I think of myself, God is ever forgiving & never cease to welcome me back.

I love the unfinished sentence. I love the father waiting for the son on the horizon, running ever so eagerly to meet him. I love the extravagance, as though truly quite a "miracle" that the son "died" & lived again, seemingly impossible. I love the significance of the asking for his share of the property, as though regarding the father dead (as it was custom last time), how much it mustve hurt yet the father welcomes the son again.

Reminds me of the countless times I've hurt God or taken Him for granted & yet everytime I run back to Him, He's waiting there for me for always. Or reminds me of the countless times I've hurt my parents yet they still continue to love me & be there for me. I am truly very much blessed to be able to experience all these moments with God, family & friends & loved ones.

I love my God & I'm proud to be His!
