2 Chronicles 15:15
"And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about."
When I am weak, He is strong and He is the only One whom I can hold on and lean on to. Never had I been so lost before, yet He is still there. And the Lord promised to all who answer Him that if we are willing to seek Him with our whole desire, we will find Him waiting for us and He will give us rest. That's the rest that I'm seeking, that's the rest which I desire most. Nobody can hold me closer than He does, and nobody is able to sustain the secrets that I have, except Him alone. And to this God I pledged my life on the day of my Confirmation, and to this God shall I be bound forever. It's tough to remember His love at times, but He waits ever so patiently for me to return to Him. And that's what made my relationship with Him so different, so wonderful.
Yet, I sometimes falter. Sometimes, emotions of the world overwhelms my tiny space in the heart and I lost focus of Him. Like Peter, I sink when I get distracted by my surroundings. Like Peter, I forget to fix my eyes on Jesus. Like Peter, I want to cry out loud, "Lord Jesus, save me!" and I know He will save me because His unending and unfailing love for me. I hurt Him endless times, yet He still saves. He's the only Hope and Light of the world whom I can trust to do wonders in this wretched life of mine. From a pile of dust, He mold me into who I am today. When I become unappreciative and worship some other non-gods, He waits patiently for me to return, calling me in ways that no other human would ever do. He nudges me gently and patiently. And through His Word, I see His promise of eternal salvation, His promise of eternal rest, His promise of never-ending love. And through His Word, He tells me gently that He's still there no matter what occurs in life. Through the storms, He is there. Through the flood, He's still there. He is the Alpha and the Omega... The Beginning and the End... He, is the Lord, my God, my Saviour.
Human relationships may fail, human relationships may end, but His relationship with us will never fade. Trust in the Lord, your God, for He alone is the sovereign Lord.
O Lord, have mercy on me, a sinner! Amen!
