He wins

Firstly, I want to clarify the italicised statement I made in the post below. I suppose it's reckless of me to loosely proclaim my beliefs based on the assumption that people get what I mean.

So, disobedience...
Knowing that God's grace and mercies are new every morning shouldn't be an avenue for us to do 'what we want to because it makes us feel good'. We shouldn't indulge in doing 'what we want' because it only satisfies us temporarily(the operative word here is temporary). We know too that no matter what we do, only God can fill that emptiness which so many of us feel.

Who are we that God should so love us, right? Dah la we're so undeserving, want to abuse His love for us some more. Disobedience will also render us unusable by God, which is quite a sad thing actually. There are of course exceptions to the general rule because no one can truly understand the mind of God.

I have strayed from God, very subtly and it has brought me to where I am today. I've been compromising my values and my principles. It saddens me that this has happened but what distresses me the most is that I am okay with my current state even though I extremely dislike the person I've turned into.

This relationship.. I seriously believed that I would also 'make room' for it to blossom although acutely aware of what the Bible says. Then, the day came when I was confronted with the issue of 'our faith'. I explained, reasoned, answered, clarified, justified, rationalised but to no avail. The whole episode troubled me deeply.

And then it hit me...
I'd never compromise God! (even though I thought I would)

So, when love and faith collide, FAITH PREVAILS! =D

And I'm very glad that it is so too for this would mean that no matter what my spiritual state is, God still very much resides in my heart. Of course this doesn't mean I'm not going to get back on the 'correct track' and run the 'correct race' la.
