There is a purpose in life.

There was a tragedy I experienced in my life very recently. Well, I don't think it's necessarily considered a tragedy, but it was just enough to make my blood freeze. My heart was cold and pounding, and my mentality was full of rage and disgust. I wanted revenge, bad.


But then I realized: Is God testing me? I mean, it has been a long while since I kept up with His word and I have had for a short while disbelieved the existence of God. I thought this tragedy happened because God was punishing me for going my separate ways from Him, AND his attempt for me to go closer to Him. That was the best conclusion I could ever think of as to why this horrible event happened to me. And of course, the fact my enemies were so bored, they wanted to destroy my life even more 5 months after I ignored them.

I began to pray. It was a little awkward considering the fact that I haven't prayed in a very, very long time. Heck, I don't even remember the last time I even prayed. Silly me. I started reaching out to certain people with whom I rarely kept in touch with - the people that I knew were better for me as opposed to the individuals I have been hanging out with for a long time.

I thank God for them. They understood me better, the prayed for me and we shared productive conversations and did productive activities. They even helped me with what I was currently going through. And I just think – why did I not hang out with them all this time I knew their existence in my life? I shall forbid myself from hanging out with the others since it had caused me to enter the bad side of life. Oh, boy was that side of life full of darkness.


Long story short:

Renewing my fellowship with God made me feel empowered. I feel healthier than ever before. All it takes is just a little faith and to let God lead the way through life. Ask for His guidance and for His will and your life will be led with His presence.



Okay, I don’t want to go all “bible-hugging” on all of you, but this is really how I feel. I am reading the bible more and engaging myself more with my church. This is based on my personal experience, and I think God’s will to cause a tragedy in my life in order to make me go closer to Him is working. Does that make sense?



Don’t hate. Relate. ;-)
