I left home today dreading the hour-long journey to church. It has been a while since I have dreaded to go to church for worship, and to experience it now, especially after I have been spiritually refreshed after Ravi Zacharias' sermons came as a surprise to me. Perhaps it was because of the set of midnights I had to work over the past few days, or perhaps I cannot see myself working for too long in Accenture, but nonetheless the inertia to go out was certainly unexpected and unwelcome.

My shoes were soaked by the time I reached church, albeit mildly (mildly soaked, what an oxymoron). The weather further depressed my mood for the day, making me think that I had made a wrong choice going over. But you know, God never fails His people. At the end of today's YF, I was glad I went. What pastor and brother William shared was something which I dearly needed. It was a reminder to always order my life around God, and everything else will fall into place nicely. It was also encouragement to seek Him for strength, regardless if it is spiritual, emotional or physical. I was glad I closed YF with perhaps the most elegant prayer in the group I have done thus far. It was my sincere cry to God for spiritual strength for us (and myself especially) to walk closely with Him, and to order our lives around him first.

God knew. He heard my cry for help over my waning spiritual strength, and He gave me the much needed boost from YF today. What do I need that I can't go to Him for help with? My God is a good God. :) || posted by Kuan Hui
