A message for my friend...

I don't know if you read my blog. I think I gave you a link to this blog before, but I don't think you ever come here. Not that I expect you to visit, but I just have a little message for you.

I know that you're probably going through a very tough time right now. I can see that you're in a dilemma, confused of what to do. You want to follow what your heart wants, what your heart needs.. but at the same time, you're afraid of what might happen, the consequences.

Often you come to me for comfort. You'd call me whenever you feel like crying or when you feel like being lost. However, you never find the answers or advices that you want from me. When you come to me to talk about things, I seem to never have the perfect answer that you're looking for.

You know that I've never been in the same situation as you before. I have no certain experience that can back up what I'm gonna say to you. But, all I know is that.. whenever I have problems and I don't know what to do or where to go, I go and find God. I talk to God, you know, like a real conversation. I pray to God, and tell Him my problems... and really I can feel that I find comfort when I do this. So, all those times when you call me or when you come to my room crying, I really want to tell you that you should pray. I have no other answers because I've done this all my life. I have no past experience where God was not involved in my problems, because I always come to Him the second those problems come. This is also what my parents taught me since I was little. So, really.. I have no other answer for you.. but pray..

I was listening to this song last night, and the lyrics have put this burden in my heart to tell you. But, I don't know how to tell you. You seem to have a different belief about God. You seem to have your own belief about things. You take many different things, here and there, and you just take what makes sense to you. I hope that someday (soon), I can tell you this good news.

Anyway, below is the lyric to the song.

One Thing I Know
by Selah

Something in your eyes I see
reminds me of what used to be
when I was uncertain of the truth.
Sleepless nights that turn to days;
alone inside an endless maze;
counting on someone to see me through.

If there's one thing I know,
you are never left alone
'cause you can always call on Jesus's name.
If there's one thing I pray,
it's Jesus helps you find a way
to make a change and listen to your heart.
God will take away your pain
if you choose to let it go.
If there's one thing I know.

How can I convince your heart?
His light can find you in the dark
and only He can make your blind eye see.
For if we speak of lost things found,
of lives that have been turned around;
Then tell me who knows better, child, than me?

I would never stake my life on any lesser things
than the cross of Christ where He gave His life to end my suffering.
