heart is deceitful and do not like something good and holy. We hate light but love darkness, we have
no compassion and by ourself, there is no way that we can be good. We died with our sin and there
is no way we can come to goodness by ourself, it is simply that we are dead, a dead people can not
wake up by him or herself.
My fren said that i had no dream of boy girl relationship already. Yes, i am, just let it be, if I am
going to be single for the rest of my life. My focus now is very difference. I want to equip myself and
i want to know God more. I want to be a mature and strong spiritually lady, so that i can help the
unfortunate. Let them know that God is good.
Today is labour day and it is a holiday. Thanks God for all the good things but when i get to know
others are still suffering at the other part of the world, yes, i feel down, i do not understand their
suffering and i do not understand God's ways and God's plans....
" Thou art my hope in the day of evil." — Jeremiah xvii. 17.
The path of the Christian is not always bright with t'lMg sunshine ; he has his seasons of darkness and of storm. True, it is written in God's Word, " Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace ; " and it is a great truth, that religion is calculated to give a man happiness below as well as bliss above ; 'but experience tells us that if the course of the just be " as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day," yet some times that light is eclipsed. At certain periods clouds cover the believer's sun, and he walks in darkness and sees no light. There are many who have rejoiced in the presence of God for a season ; they have basked in the sunshine in the earlier stages of their Christian career ; they have walked along the " green pastures" by the side of the " still waters," but suddenly they find the glorious sky is clouded ; instead of the land of Goshen, they have to tread the sandy desert ; in the place of sweet waters, they find troubled streams, bitter to their taste, and they say, " Surely, if I were a child of God, this would not happen." Oh ! say not so, thou who art walking in darkness. The best of God's saints must drink the wormwood ; the dearest of His children must bear the cross. No Christian has enjoyed perpetual prosperity ; no believer can always keep his harp from the willows. Per haps the Lord allotted you at first a smooth and unclouded path, because you were weak and timid. He tempered the wind to the shorn lamb ; but now that you are stronger in the spiritual life, you must enter upon the riper and rougher experience of God's full-grown children. We need winds and tempests to exercise our faith, to tear off the rotten bough of self-dependence, and to root us more firmly in Christ. The day of evil reveals to us the value of our glorious hope.
