Lord, let us follow You.

"I will follow" -Chris Tomlin

Where you go, I'll go
Where you stay, I'll stay
When you move, I'll move
I will follow...

All your ways are good
All your ways are sure
I will trust in you alone
Higher than my side
High above my life
I will trust in you alone

Where you go, I'll go
Where you stay, I'll stay
When you move, I'll move
I will follow you
Who you love, I'll love
How you serve I'll serve
If this life I lose, I will follow you
I will follow you

Light unto the world
Light unto my life
I will live for you alone
You're the one I seek
Knowing I will find
All I need in you alone, in you alone

In you there's life everlasting
In you there's freedom for my soul
In you there joy, unending joy
and I will follow


It's often that not only myself alone struggle, but I forget to realize that we all struggle daily.

Some days, I can honestly say that I really do feel alone in how I live my life and how I struggle with my faith.
What I feel and actually do is completely different in certain moments.
As in, I'll pray to God about whatever, but is there moments I actually act it out? Yes and no.
I feel that once I go through a hard time, I tend to get so...'scared' of what it is then and is to come because I am unsure.
That feeling of being unsure is something that really eats at me.
I wouldn't say that I don't know how, but I do struggle to trust in the fact that I am where I am for a reason in the eyes of God despite it may not be clear to me.
I know that it doesn't have to be clear to me where I am at with my life because it's all clear to God where He wants, has, and will do for me.
I trust that God's ways are the ways to life. I trust in God.

But, I sometimes wonder that when I say, "I trust in the Lord." Do I really trust in the Lord?
Am I giving Him myself wholeheartedly?
Am I trusting Him with everything that I've got in my heart and life so that He may be glorified?

If I am not, then I want to. I want to do all that I can do to be what the Lord has created me to be for the glory of Him.

What I want is people to realize, God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
We are a called people who are always being qualified for the works of the Lord daily.

I am realizing that whatever all that it is that I am going through, these moments I will cherish all the more because they're for the glory of God.
These moments are the moments where God is building me up to be qualified because He has called me out of darkness.

He has called you out of darkness. He has called you into His perfect light.
How easy is it to say this, but to really trust in it!

I pray that all that we say in the Gospel of Christ when sharing all that we know of Christ is not only about reaching out in His name, but being able to apply all of the content to our lives daily in the act of Christ and love for Him.



I realize that all that all I experience is for the glory of God because He had it planned so that I may learn.

God wants me to learn and gain so much in His eyes. God would never put anything in our pathways to harm us. He only wants what is best.



This is what faith can do...
It brings me to share openly with all of you and my Lord what I struggle through and what it is that brings upon these thoughts.


Only a daily basis, I usually have tons of subjects that I want to blog about with my faith and how God is working...

It's hard to find time. God understands.

All I can also say is that,

How we follow Christ, is out of our lively acts, not just talk.
Act it all out. Don't be afraid. God knows your heart and that's all that matters.

Praying that we would have the courage to openly discuss our issues so we may help encourage one another in the faith and know
that what we experience is to help us realize God knows and none of us are alone.

We aren't alone in the faith and in God's eyes.

Acts 11:23

23 When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts.


I encourage you with a challenge,
To act out in faith.
To encourage one another in the faith.
To share all what's on your heart with God and one another, so that you may be healed and renewed.

Follow the Lord your God for He is good!

Praying for you all.

PS. I know my writing is somewhat scattered in this, but I believe you'll get the jist of it.

In the journey of light and dark,

<3 Mak
