... if the world hates you....

God has listened and answered to my prayer. He strengthens me, encourages me. I’m not alone because God is with me all the time! What He took away from me is those belong to the world, because I am not of the world but of the truth, of God!

At first I didn’t understand what’s His ‘big plan’ on me. I was confused, frustrated and I was upset. I prayed to Lord, and I’ve spent a lot of times being all alone with my Lord. He knows my weaknesses, so He spoke to me and He consoled me. He opened my eyes to let me see what is valuable and meaningful in life! He removed those destructive.

I feel thankful now because without their discarding, I think I still live in miserable. Now I spend a lot of good times with my family. I bring my lovely niece to church. I share and I learn God’s word with my family and friends. There are many many good things which is sooo meaningful! I was neglected and I hope it wasn’t too late now!

Thank God for not leaving me, but live with me all the time. God is mercy, God is faithful. I confess my sins, and He forgives me. Thank God that I’m not afraid and not worry about those people who gathering against me. God is on my side. In Him I trust, and I will not be afraid. What can a mere human being do to me? (Psalm 57:11)
