Something Worth to Give Up : Comfort Zones

It's been a long time that I didn't visit my blog. Honestly, I really have a hard time, thinking on what should I wrote here on a daily basis. I want to share all of my experiences that God has been doing in my life; on how great He is and on how awesome His plans is.

Well, to kick it off, I would like to share one thing that God has been teaching me this past few months: to give up and step out of my comfort zone. I know that most of you know how hard it is to get out to a place wherein you already knew the flow and the interior of the system? I think a good illustration here is leaving your place in order to move to another place. I remember a scene in a certain animation film wherein the protagonist take a turnaround on his house (and lift the house with so many balloons! Just kidding XD ). 

Why do we have hard time of letting go things? Because we learn to love them and we have been very comfortable to this things that we find it hard to let it go. But sometimes, we didn't notice that these things hinders us in making God put all His plans unto us. The problem as well is we make plans out of accordance of what He wants.

Most of us have doubts and fears if they thought of getting out of their comfort zone. But God said that we should trust Him and don't depend on what we understand; that it is His will that we should take. Proverbs 3: 5 says " Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding (emphasis mine)". Isn't it wonderful to put all your trust in God? And he said not just to trust him partially, but to trust in him "with all of our heart". 

That's God's promise to us. How are we able to trust Him? He answered it in the following verse. Verse 6 says "Seek his will in all you do and He will show you which path to take." In order to trust God, seek his will, not your own will. 

God wanted us to be more dependent on him, not on the comforts on this world. This fallen world taught us to worries on matter which is temporal such as  security, job, pleasure and a lot to mention.

Let's have a STEP OF FAITH and get out of our box. If we stay inside, we are limitation God's power and provision on us. Let's learn to take a risk and trust Him. I'm sure he will lead you to a much better place that even you wouldn't expect.

Trust God. I'm sure it's worth  to give it all to Him.

Movie Review: God's Not Dead

"But the LORD is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth quakes, And the nations cannot endure His indignation."
 Jeremiah 10:10

3.8 out of 5

This movie got my interest because of my friend who was craving (yes, craving is the word) to watch this movie. She really jumped high out of extreme happiness when we had finished watching the film (though on the entire film, she don't stop blabbing and talking a lot which made me to focus more on the movie). But I'm really glad she pushed me to watch this film.

This is actually a good movie, showing the great importance of how we should be concrete to our faith to our Lord and how He was really a living God.

I won't write any spoilers here, just my insights about the film.

It shows that God will still prevail and those who stand firm, holding on to their faith and trust in God will show great changes on those who surrounds them; that God uses our difficulties and endeavors in life as an advantage for us to know Him more and genuinely in our hearts.

It really shows what a faithful servant can do when he obeyed our Great God by not forsaking Him. 

It shows big importance on how God will move despite on the persecutions every believer was facing up too.

However (yes, I have that too), many of you might ask why only at the rate of 3? Why not 5? I don't know, though they show that big revelation, I think there is still something missing though. Maybe a great elaboration of the plot will do.

Still, I will surely recommend this film to everyone out there facing persecution and standing firm for the Lord's glorification.

I'm Sorry

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. - Romans 12: 1 (KJV)

I never felt this empty before. SIN is really a big hindrance to pursue the righteous track. 

Just a short reminder guys, don't be deceived by this world.  

Uncontrollable Delight : Start of My Life Changing Experiences

Hi there guys!

I know that it’s been a long time since I’ve updated my posts here. Almost been a year, right? And that year was so memorable and very life changing. How could that be?

I’ve seen and experienced many things: happiness, pain, sufferings, persecution, love… FORGIVENESS. Why giving emphasis to the last word? For I know I was being forgiven. By whom? Our great GOD.

I’m quite overwhelmed now and can’t contain myself.

I’ll surely update my post here regularly, sharing my experiences with our Great Creator and Heavenly Father who never fails to always display His power on my life and to the life of the people that surrounds me.

May God Bless each and every one of you.

My Life in the Media World

BUSY.

That's my word in these past few weeks. I've been missing reading my TBR books due to my work. And though that's my only source of entertainment here (yeah, not kidding), I'm kind of enjoying my job.

I've finished Bachelor of Science in Broadcasting and being already in this field was such a big honor. Honestly, there's a great competition out there before you'd land in this job. And I'm proud and happy about it.

Unlike what other people think, our salary wasn't that big. But we enjoyed the job due to our passion and love for it.

But (yes, there's a 'but'...), it truly ate most of your time. Sometimes, it's very tiresome and stressful. And the factor that your far from your love ones to share your woes was also there.

I'm really not good in expressing my thoughts in writing. I'm more of a verbal-type of person.

But there's one thing that I loved the most (and I think it's quite obvious to what my blog is about), BOOKS!

I love reading, and I miss it so much *sniffs*.

I just post here to share my woes and concerns in a different way.

And I'll surely find a way to get my time fix.

A.S.A.P.
