Why choose to have faith?


A friend of mine told me that having faith doesn’t change your situations, it only change how you look at your own circumstances in a more positive and hopeful way.  Having faith makes your heart and mind go into flow of unknown with confidence and belief that it will lead you to the truth and happiness of life.

Way back then, I hardly forget how I learned about faith in God.  I was been into depression for like 2 months, it was hard because neither I tell nor show it to my friends and my family about my condition, I kept it to myself.  I can’t sleep and can’t eat well, I was so nervous and thought like I’m going to die, I even think about committing a suicide, but one thing that I remember (since I grown up in a quite religious family) to pray though I doubt God’s existence. I pray so hard and cried so much…I beg for His help and ask Him why things happen and I even swear to Him that it would be the last time that I’m going to pray and I will commit a suicide, but after crying for like an hour, I fall asleep.  That was the first time that I able to sleep for 6 straight hours in two months.  I really feel so good  and it was like my worries is not that scary anymore, I feel so refresh and I just can’t explain how I feel that time, I was so happy, even though my problems is not gone, but I feel stronger and confident and that time I know God exist.  If it wasn’t for Him, I won’t be here anymore.  I do believe in God and I do believe in Jesus Christ.

Faith lives in our heart while fear dwells in our mind.  God choose to live in our heart because it is in our heart where love resides and it is His love where we are created.

May Jesus Christ touch your heart to love and live each day with love to yourself and to others, have faith because He loves you so much.

Random thoughts and images


There are those moments when I want to write but idea seems to be elusive and when good things come to my mind I am about to sleep, and there are those times when I search for some things that I really need and couldn't to find it but when I don’t need it anymore it immediately showed up.   Those situations makes me realized that everything happens for a reason and things come in the right time.  I learned that when things went wrong all I need to do is be still and go on with the flow and trust God for he works his plan.  There was a time, way back then, when I was still studying, I got a failure examination in my statistics.  And I can’t believe on why it happens when I study a lot, pray to God and give my best. I cried the whole night because I can’t accept the truth and worry about my parent’s reactions when they found out, then on the following day my dean called me to come to his office, I felt depressed, but surprised when He told me that he make mistakes on checking my test paper and in fact I got a higher score and I was like wow! I waste my time crying when in fact I should be happy.

Well anyway, have you ever understand the reason behind all those bad things that happens to your life?  Do you ask yourself or God why it happens?  When things don't come my way, I used to look back my past experiences and how I get through with it and that’s how I get my strength to face my troubles and mistakes.  I always told myself that it’s just a bad day and tomorrow or soon it will be different just like before.

Anyway, at this time my photos and quotes are random thoughts and I hope somehow I inspire you to live, love and enjoy life.  I am always praying that you may have enough courage and strength to face the day.  Thanks for reading my Blog.
