It all began...

One night, I had a dream, I saw myself so confused and crushed about what's been happening in my life, I tried looking for my relatives and friends and asked for help. They stayed and made me happy but only for a moment. I ran to places to find rest but all I got into was more heavy load. I tried to do the things I liked but only to find out they made me more miserable and distressed. I bought all the things which made me feel secured but later on I realized I had purchased nothing. When I did everything I could, used every bit of knowledge I have and gave all the strength which was left in me...I just saw myself even more helpless, drained, bitter, miserable, unhappy and alone...
When I woke up, I came to realize the dream I just had was exactly what was happening in my life. That was the moment I decided to let go of every fear and doubt inside me, surrendered everything to the One Most High, let Him lead my life and submit to His perfect plan. Although life around me was still almost the same - bamboozling and hostile; relatives and friends come and go; so many burdensome loads; not all things work out well - and yet it's so DIFFERENT. With God, though I'm alone, I'm alone with Him and never feel lonely; when I'm confused, He enlightens me; when I'm drained and weak, He strengthens me; when I'm afraid, He holds me; when I stumble and fall, He carries me; and when I get lost, He leads me the way.
I wanted to share this wonderful experience I have for knowing God and how good and wonderful He is. Aside from making others know Him through my actions and works, I'd also like to share Him through my thoughts and feelings and one way to do this is write them for others to read. I may never have the chance to do something for you, at least, I (and many others who would post here) would be able to touch you in ways no "hand" could ever do the same way.
