Looking Back and Moving Forward

Looking back at what God has done in the past to have confidence that he will still be faithful to His promises in the future even when it might seems uncertain.

"The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;

    he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
⁴⁰ The Lord helps them and delivers them;
    he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,

    because they take refuge in him." (psalm 37:39-40)

2012 in Retrospect

"I trust you God" is easier said than done.

2012 was filled with many moments where God asked me to fall back and trusted that He would took care of me. Often, I (like the girl in the video) found it hard to just trust God.

Feeling like I have to do something to make the situation better.
Feeling like I need to have evidence to prove that God is really faithful and is good.
Forgetting to count His blessings.
Forgetting that regardless of anything, God is still a good God because it is his character.

Being a last year uni student, I was panicking on looking for jobs for when after I finish uni. My uni marks were not great and that made me doubt on whether or not I will get a job later on because the market was and is always competitive. Instead of trusting that God will provide and that everything will work according to his timing and purpose, I shifted my identity to my uni marks and getting a job because those things are more tangible than trusting God.

Hopefully in this new year, I will continue to trust God in His plan and providence (whatever it is) and not forget how gracious He has been and holding on to His promise knowing that I can hold on to him because he is after all my Heavenly DADDY :D:D

Keeping you guys in my prayer too.
