Reformating My Heart

This blog is almost reaching its first year and as my first entry said:

"All endings are also beginnings..."

Almost a year ago, I experienced my first life-turning experience.
Almost everyone in church knew me or at least sees me. I regularly attend devotions and was very active in my ministry. Everyone thought I was spiritually healthy. But in reality, I was spiritually dead. I did church work just because I got used to it. But my heart was far from God. I was a hypocrite and that is why God had to give me a little spanking. He had to let me fall down so I had no where else to look but up and notice the hand He kept on reaching out for me to take. It was not that easy because I had to let go of a lot of things when I accepted His hand to get me out of the little mess I made. Taking His hand means leaving my old lifestyle behind. No more hypocracy. I had to reformat my heart. God is now my new OS.

"...we just don't know it at that time."

We may not know what God's plans for us is but know that He knows what's best for us. I will not say that I'm living a perfect life now. My system still sometimes experiences some hang-ups, viruses and bugs but God always troubleshoots and takes care of me through Anti-virus programs like fellowhips, devotions and ministry.

"All endings are also beginnings, we just dont know it at that time."

Lesson learned: LISTEN

When you hear God knocking at your heart, don't pretend to be deaf. Don't wait for Him to stop knocking because when He does, you realize that you've already fallen too deep.

God wants to help you but you too have to do your part.

Seek God.
