I'm dehydrated.. my heart dehydrates as I see my life again and again.. I meant my past.. Why does it hurt so much?? Why does it dry my life so much?? Am I really pursuing my relationship with the Father??
The Past..
Knowing the past doesn't change the future.. Having those thoughts of the past just makes me feel my foolishness, my pains and sorrows.. What's wrong with my past?? I don't even understand my life.. Life's a journey, Life's a choice and Life's a purpose.. The past, the mistakes, the relationships and family makes the whole life so ugly, unpleasing and unacceptable. I live a life of a broken, dysfunctional family.. through sadness and pain.. till I met Jesus.. Till I knew God's dysfunctional family.. it's US.. All the wrongdoings in my life, my thoughts, my actions and my speech brought pain and sorrow at times.. Now, I've decided to leave my past.. Yes, leave my past.. forever..
The Present..
What's next?? Presently, I'm in Republic Polytechnic.. studying Information Technology.. currently year 2.. I'm definitely very involved in school.. I'm in Student Union Executive Committee, Student Ambassadors Management Committee, Cypher Club Representative, MAC IG and Open Source IG.. Besides school commitments, I'm very involved in church work too.. I'm presently helping out in my Poly Cell Group as Worship Co-ordinator; Sec 1 cell as assistant or helper; understudy (guitar) in the music ministry.. Everything seems to be going fine.. but I'm really thirsty.. thirsty.. i need that drip of revival.. that drip of water.. I need to be refreshed and really ask God what's next?? I want to know my purpose, really.. Help me, O Lord!! What's next??
The Future..
Who knows?? He does.. only He knows everything.. as I was playing my guitar, the Holy Spirit seems to inspire me again and again to write songs.. to start afresh.. to be renewed by the power of the Holy Spirit.. to be empowered by God, the Father.. That's my future.. to be led by Him and Him alone.. To lead a purpose driven life.. I was lost and now am found.. I was naked + He clothed me.. I was thirsty + He gave me a drink.. I was weak but now am strong.. Who makes the decision in the end?? it's US.. it's me in this case..
Invitation..
May I ask that if you are hungry, thirsty, lost, disappointed, disillusioned, discouraged, empty, living life with no purpose and more.. why don't you come to God and ask.. Ask for His mercy and grace.. drink from that living water so that you will NEVER be thirsty again.. NEVER again.. if you want and desire for this.. may I invite you to pray this prayer??
Heavenly Father,
I am lost, thirsty, hungry and empty. Father, I want to know you but I don't know how to. Father, I ask for your forgiveness over my sins and may You cleanse me from my sins through the blood of Jesus Christ. Lord, may your mercy and grace be upon me. Lord, teach me to forgive as you have forgiven me as I pray. Father, by the power of the Holy Spirit, guide me and lead me to know you more and Lord, take me out from my past and lead me to my purpose, my purpose driven life. Father, all I need is You and You alone. Father, forgive me and I lift all these in Your name.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen!!
As you finish this prayer, may you be filled with the Holy Spirit and may you excel in your life in whichever path the Lord has lead and guide you. Be Blessed.
In His Love,
Kenny Ong
