“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:5-8 TNIV

Lord, are You testing my faith? Are You really trying to sharpen it? Forgive me for me all my sins. Forgive me Lord. This is the time that I need to be faithful. To be more obedient to You. Thank You Lord. Amen.

" O our God, won’t you stop them? We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help.”
-2 Chronicles 20:12 NLT-

Lord, this is also my appeal to You. We are under attack by the enemy, trying to destroy us but Lord, by Your grace, we will not budge. Honestly, I really don't know what to do. Really, I don't know. Should I stay or should I go?

Father, what do we do? Please give me wisdom. I really don't know what to do now. Please help me. Amen.

" But you will not even need to fight. Take your positions; then stand still and watch the LORD’s victory. He is with you, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out against them tomorrow, for the LORD is with you!” -2 Chronicles 20:17 NLT-

Lord, this is Your answer. That we don't have to fight. That all we need to do is to stand still and watch as You work in my life. As You work in our lives. This is Your fight. All we need to do is just be still. Just be still.

Father, next year, I already declared that I would be leaving my workplace. Is it wise for me to do or I am just being impulsive again?

I don't want my emotions to dominate me. Father, please give me wisdom. I appeal to You. Father, I don't want to leave my family especially my mother. I love my mother but I have my own wings. Father, may I just take my mother with me and my siblings as well?

Anyway, it is not something for me to worry about. There are still many things that will happen in my life. Whatever You will send my way, I will gladly and wholeheartedly accept. For now, I will just be still and really be still. Amen.

"Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path."
-Psalm 119:105, NLT-

I need guidance from You Father especially now that I am faced with a dilemma. Lord, it is not about religion right? It is not about the church a person goes to or denomination one belongs to but it is our relationship with You that matters.

Father, I cannot judge him right away that he is an "unbeliever." I still yet to know the condition of his heart and the way he sees and looks at You. His relationship with You of course, that's all that matters.

Father, I am not to going to be legalistic about things. Just guide me, guide us. I will just be still and know that You are God.

Father, he is a good man, a good person. His attitude and unassuming ways are like breath of fresh air from what I had encountered from those other guys before. Though he could be demanding sometimes. Maybe, he is just demanding. I am still yet to know him and to really get to know him.

Father, I appreciated it when he was so thoughtful enough to look for me and ask about me from our common friends. It was so sweet of him. Father, honestly, I really like him. But You have Your ways. I cannot do anything. But I will just be still. I will be still.

This is the time that I am going to be more faithful. And be just more faithful and obedient as I go through this season of my life. Just help me. Help me with what I am going through.

Father, I will rely on Your words and promises. Just guide me. And help me to do the right thing.

Father, help me as I go through this journey. Help me. I trust in You. Father.
