Its has been a month since my last posting!
And yes to be honest I have not really done my QT since!
Shame on me!
But during that time I have still continue to pray and seek God and I did have a spiritual breakthrough!
For the first time in my life I actually sat down with someone and confess all my sins to God but in the presents of another more Spiritually mature man of God!
The experience of scary and yet after that...empowering! I shared about my addictions and weakness and then he gave me advise without condemning me and then we prayed together!
The saying is very true! Confession is indeed good for your soul!
I encourage all those out there who is struggling with a sin or an addiction to
1. Admit you have a problem and cannot help yourself
2. Go find a good christian more mature person (from the same sex) and confess your sins to God in the presents of that person!
3. Get that person to help you be accountable to your problems!
Also I had experience another miracle!
Last weekend I had a gout attack on my leg again!! This was Saturday evening!
I had a clown show which I could not get out already on Sunday and I had no one to help me!
However I prayed earnestly as I could to God asking Him for His mercy and grace!
The next 24 hours instead of getting worst ( like it was suppose to because the gout attack just started) The gout attack actually got better right away and by Mon morning I was completely healed!
So I just want to PRAISE GOD and give HIM all the HONOUR AND GLORY!!
Today I got back to my QT and I am doing this special lent season reading!
Lent season is 40 days before Easter and I think it is especially good if one take this time to abstain from certain things and meditate and ponder and the suffering of Christ during this time!
Then I think Easter will be more meaningful to you (instead of just thinking of Chocolate Easter Bunny!)
My today's reading is on James 1:2-4
Its talks about to consider it pure joy when you face trials of many kind.
I agreed with the writer that as Malaysian Christian, most of us face very light problems when compare to the problems of the rest of this world!
My trials this year (that I can see) is my wedding preparation and buying a house!
I know it is peanuts compare to the things around me! I am aware of it!
That is why I pray for God's mercy everyday and thank Him for the simple things in life like safety to work (and that I even have a job) and good bosses, friends, family and a wonderful fiancee and also good health!
I can only pray that when I do face harder trials in life God will give me the strength to endure it!
AMEN!

I logged on here thinking that my name was somehow linked with spiritual healing. I would have been so pleased to find my maiden name of GOULT actually had devout meaning .... but, no, your spelling of GOUT (which I assume you were suffering from) was misleading.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that He, in his wisdom, cured your leg but do not assume that He is there for every whim and fancy. Lay off the richness of life and you will be healed.
PS. I shall now remove my Google Alert for GOULT.

ReplyDeleteAsk your dear fiancee to help with your gout problem...
God bless you bro as you seek to do what is right before God
