DEAD;
Experience- it's how we all learn, isn't it? It's sort of like a wake-up call. If God doesn't drop these suprise 'experiences' along your way, you may end up deeper in the pit. It may be too late when you realise it yourself. God gave you 'experiences' to get you back on the right track. I know it isn't easy. You're not the only one who goes through these stuff. EVERYONE goes through it too, you're not alone. I know it's hard to accept some things, but hey, there's absolutely NOTHING we can do, other than to pray and ask GOD for the strength to go through it. Like what I said, it may not seem like the best but God KNOWS it's the BEST. I read a book recently and it has fired me up for GOD. In the past, I really relied on my own strength. Studies, friendships, the choices I make, and the list goes on. Handling the latest friendship problem has REALLY REALLY worn me out. It was then that I realised that I've been relying on my own strength way TOO much. Even as I'm typing this, I'm asking God to lead me to say the stuff that He wants to say to you. Yeah, I'm pretty shocked that I'm relying on Him so much. But it's surely is a good change from the normal. I feel more relaxed. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I know I'm making progress. It's YOUR choice whether you let HIM take control. Your choice whether you want HIM to take the wheel.

"Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
~Matthew 11:28-30

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
~Philippians 4:6-7

You might want to memorise it. It'll may come in handy on a 'rainy' day. And then, I'm going to challenge you to really think about what it says. It doesn't just say to simply pray. It says to make supplications, which means to really beat on God's door. And then it also says to thank God. And I've come to believe that means we need to thank Him even before we see the answers to our prayers. Yes, I know I'm not perfect at totally trusting God. Even if it doesn't turn out the way we hoped it would, let's trust God that He's doing it for OUR good and He only wants what's BEST for us. I, too, need to learn this.
