Walk of Faith

Indeed a walk of faith as I grow in my walk with God. It is not just walking on flat, open ground, but it is coming to the point where it really felt like it is walking on a tight rope that is suspended across the valleys, and any im-balance or wrong move, will cause one to fall off. It is coming to the point where there is nothing to rely on, but only God alone. I don't really know how it feels to walk on a tight rope, I will imagine it to be really mind-boggling, that it will need one filled with faith and courage to say that they will walk on it. Personally, i think it seems crazy to even think about getting on it. I think it is safer to go sky-diving than to walk on that tight rope :)


When we look at our walk with God, I don't know whether you have experience it, but it seems like when we get comfortable with God, God will keep bringing you to until you reach a place where you realise that there is no other securities in your life, that you are left with Him alone.

That's where I see my walk of faith has come to the point of testing once again.

Fighting the different battles, and plus fighting and overcoming self-esteem, and self confidence, has been a constant challenge to realise that my security doesn't lie in my achievements, and in my goodness, or skills, but my security lies in God alone. I guess I am at times faced with the dilemma of to go on or to let it all go. Of course, I know that God desires us to keep going on, but with a "wrong intent" desire, I cry out for Jesus to come back. I laugh at it when I look at my own heart, but yet, I cry when I reflect more into it. There is one prayer that I make every other day............."God, help me to hold on, and not let go. That my confidence is placed in You alone; Even though everything may pass away, but Your Word will never return void, and I want to press on until I see the will of God fulfilled."

I do not know if you ever go through those times of dilemma.......but if you do, just as this verse as challenged me to stay on in God, I pray that it will be a blessing to you as well.
