"God does not withold any good thing from those that follow him. If God witholds something from you, it means that its not good for you"

A statement that i heard during sunday's sermon that got me thinking. the words are not exact..its jus paraphrased as far as i remember it..but the gist of the meaning is all dere.. when i heard this statement it jus seemed to instantly answer some qns that i had in my head at that time...all the things that i want and feel that i can handle but do not get is due to the fact that it isnt good for me. by my own judgement i feel that its within my control and its wont affect me negatively.. but u know.. God always knows best and has our best interests at heart. so ill jus have to accept that and move on. its quite amazing how this one statement could really bring enlightenment to some burning thoughts in my mind. its jus human nature i guess, to yearn for new experiences... but there is a time for everything and if it just isnt time yet.. things will be witheld from you... so as difficult as it is..and as much as it is my natural tendency to want to take control of my life.. im constantly reminded through a variety of ways that the best path for me to take will be to be surrendered to God's timing...

everyone has their own battles in life...something like their fatal flaws... things that always cause them to stumble...i guess its really impt to identify the areas in your life where u are weak. morally your conviction, conscience and resolve can be very strong in some areas.. however in the areas where u are weak, ur conviction, conscience and resolve can be close to non-existent.. ive experienced and realised all of this for myself. and it has helped me to guard myself better.. but having said that.. i aint really succesfull 100% of the time...but there is progress and dats good...sumhow i realise dat im wired in such a way that i constantly seek progress in everythin. i dun like things to be stagnated..and in a way that adds excitement to life... my life at least..
