Life Lesson About Clarity

Craving clarity, we attempt to eliminate the risk of trusting God. Fear of the unknown path stretching ahead of us destroys childlike trust in the Father’s active goodness and unrestricted love.      - Ruthless Trust by Brennan Manning




“We ourselves have known and put our trust in God’s love toward ourselves.” (1 John 4:16).

Clarity VS Trust

When the brilliant ethicist John Kavanaugh went to work for 3 months at “the house of the dying” in Calcutta, he was seeking a clear answer as to how best to spend the rest of his life. On the first morning there he met Mother Teresa. She asked, “And what can I do for you?” Kavanaugh asked her to pray for him.
“What do you want me to pray for?” she asked. He voiced the request that he had borne thousands of miles from the United States. “Pray that I have clarity.”
She said firmly, “No, I will not do that.” When he asked her why, she said, “Clarity is the last thing you are clinging to and must let go of.” When Kavanaugh commented that she always seemed to have the clarity he longed for, she laughed and said, “I have never had clarity; what I have always had is trust. So I will pray that you will trust God.”

God of The Second Chance

When I failed, He’d come up to me with a big smile on his face and say, “I believe in you. You can do better. Take the exam again.” God is the God of the second chance. And the third chance. And the fourth chance… (Bo Sanchez)

My part and His part

It's been a month since I heard He spoke to me and now I've seen the wonders of His work. He really does what He said.He never stops working. All I need to do is do my part and He will do His part.

FORGIVENESS DECLARATION

I forgive myself for liking you so much,

And I forgive you for not liking me enough.

I forgive myself for missing you so bad,

And I forgive you for being cold.

I forgive myself for so many efforts I’ve done,

And I forgive you for giving up the relationship easily.

I forgive myself for raising you up so high,

And I forgive you for bringing me down so low.

I forgive myself for the butterflies in my stomach, for not hearing my brain,

and for the tears I’ve shed…

And I forgive you for making me feel like a fool.

I forgive myself for giving you everything I had,

And I forgive you for making me feel like a loser.

I forgive myself for moving so slow,

And I forgive you for changing so fast.

I forgive myself for being so pathetic,

And I forgive you for being indifferent.

I forgive myself for not being able to let go,

And I forgive you for never had to latch on.

I forgive myself for always remember the memories we had,

And I forgive you for forgetting so fast.

I forgive myself for having dreams and hope in you,

And I forgive you for crushing it.

And now I have done dealing with myself and you.

I forgive because I want to let go of the hurt.
