Keep moving

Thinking and pondering sometimes can help me and may be some of us to refine our thoughts and decisions. However, at other time it can be a labyrinth for me especially when I am thinking harder than I should or being captivated with worries and anxieties which is in fact unreal and deceptive. I remember once my gentle teacher said to me, "Abandon yourself to Christ.." and now I find that he's saying such a great truth to me.

I have to admit that in many occassions, I will start using my limited logic to deal with the circumstances, trying so hard to figure it out, and then having an uneasy emotional storm. One thing which I realize it that I need to cast out my fear and anxiety to Him who knows perfectly. I need to admit it before the Lord and trust Him in everything. It is for me to ask His mercy and joy to accept all things wheter it's 'pleasant' or 'not pleasant' with the same joy and acceptance and gratitude. It will be a long process to go through, but with the Lord, how can I doubt?

What I need to do is to keep moving... one step at one time... While begging for the Lord's mercy and strength, it is for me to 'come and see' the goodness of the Lord in everything I need to do for the moment; to keep love and do what is true as He commands. There is no joy can compare to the joy of His presence, when He comes closer to us and we come closer to Him. Glory to God!
