-Lent season...

its the season of retreat, a season of conversion,
its the time to reflect and the time to act...


well, its the Lent season now.
so, i wish to all of my fellow Christians friends,
have a meaningful and enlighten Lent.
let's welcome it with the spirit to grow anew and better.
fast if you may, be it foods, words, thoughts or deeds.
its the time to give deep thoughts of our own sins and repent of it.

and already i've been tested with few patient wrecking events.
it was really though that i really feel like i'm going through a though 40 days.
and so far i manage to control my feelings and emotions.
not to be caught up by it and immerse myself with those matters.
i'm not those seriously pious people.
just a simple dude with a hectic life who somehow at one point finding it difficult to cope it all.

but i'm thanking God.
i believe when i ask for strength, He gives me all these hardship,
so i'll be strong,
when i ask for wisdom, He gives me all these problems,
so i'll be wiser,
when i ask for love, He gives me people to care of,
so i'll be loving,
when i ask for blessings, He gives me unfortunate event,
so i'll turn it out to blessings.

and all these are not even easy, sometimes i found myself almost giving in,
as a mere mortal who has such a complex emotions and attitudes,
i sometimes fall, wondering if i'll ever get up once more,
its not easy to take everything with optimism, no, its not,
its easier to take out our anger and hatred and throw it around,
yeah, its much easier.

and in the midst of my almost self defeat, i yearn for my God,
and He's not abandaning me,
He once said its not easy to walk His path,
but He'll be with me, guiding me all along the way,
no matter how hard life would be, He'll be there,
never will He let me go, never will He walks away,
thats what my faith says to me all this while.

and now its up to myself, and you too,
to put our trust in God,
and let Him take care of everything,
coz He knows sometimes its too much for us too handle.

and now in Jesus's name i pray,
i'll be made strong, wiser, loving and blessed,
to carry my own cross and to endure whatever come as it may,
Amen.

Alas your post is out & again I'm 1st to comment! ha2.

I am attracted to the poem (correct me if I'm wrong) in para 3. Kinda deep in meaning but really thoughtful to be grasped.

Again, it's not us ok... (wondering why the sudden enthusiasm commenting at my site... something must be rotten in Denmark)

Nway, since somebody had said out the prayer, I believed God's willing! gd day.

You're truly blessed if you're able to overcome a lot more upcoming temptations and obstacles.Face all of them faithfully,not emotionally as the action of overcoming things in this Lenten Season is dead if no faith along with.Wish you the best for all.
