Too Great and Too Wide

I am thinking why "A" thing suppose to happen in my life?

Why God put me in "B" situation?

And why God choose me to be in "C" condition?

I believe most of us have ever asked those kind of question in your life.

I personally ever asked these questions to God in my confusion in the reality of life.

I am trying and trying to comprehend what God wants me to be? what is His bright and the hopeful purpose as He said in Isaiah?

But I am finally realize, I am too limited to comprehend His thought and purposes in my life, so I will never know exactly what it id until He who the first one reveals it to me.

Our God is too great and too wide to be comprehended by our mind and our soul.

In fact, we are human who fall in sin. We want everything make sense and God's answer supposes to be beneficial answers for us. We are selfish. Whether you realize it or not, even when we keep our faith to God is just because we hope we could get something more from Him.

The answers is so simple, and is just one answer; it's all about HIM. Why I say this? Because He is our creator, without Him we will never exist. He has already died in the cross just because of us who is sinned. could you pay for His salvation? Nope, you never and ever can pay it off. so do you think we have a right to ask God more for our selfish wishes such as I want an happiness so I have to married, I have to get in in "A" university, get a lot of money, etc?? we can ask that. it is a normal thing but you have to ask your self, what is it for. is it for the glory of God and effectiveness for His plan in our life, or just for your own happiness and satisfaction?

Nothing eternal in this life. Don't let this worldly things make you replace His place with other things. God can gives it to you easily if He wants it, but because He loves us so much, He knows what are the things that is good for us. Sometimes, the things that we think is good for us, it doesn't necessary good in God's measurement.

to come to this point, it takes time. I take for 4 years to come to this point. is not an easy process to go through but it help me a lot to see God as the only God I can depend on, I trust and I believe in. and I also finally understand what paul means by "Life is Christ, and Die is gain", and also Philipians 1:20-24.

Wish this could become a blessing for all of you.

First of all, I am so thankful to God for His grace and blessing for these 17 years which make me can experience Him more deeply in my daily life. Day by day as I am getting older, I am yearning to have an intimate relationship with Him. For me, the greatest happiness that could not buy in this world is the intimate relationship with Him.

He teach me a lot of things that sometimes I couldn't understand what He was trying to say? but Finally I learn so much things, they are:

1. the only one you can depend on, you can trust, you can put you hope, is only God.

2. Bearing the cross is the act of our faith toward Him. It's not easy but He will give us a strength to go through the bearing cross. Sometimes, because of our selfishness we tend to query with Him power.

3. I learned the ultimate love and fulfillment that I only can get is through Jesus Christ.

4. Nothing can replace the truth of the Gospel
