On Trials and Testings
I hang on to Him in despair, in anxiety, in tears, and He said, "I love you and care for you. I know you. And I cry with you too."
But he never reveals what the outcome will be in the things that grieved me.
And certainly nothing about whether it may turn out in a way I, humanly, have hoped for, or desired, or even think was the best from all things considered. For really I do not know what is the best outcome. Only He knows.
Rather He spoke to me in my spirit that he will strengthen me, make me strong and resilient, that I may be able to bear whatever the outcome may be.
And God moves mightily in the unseen world: in the physical world, at all places and times, which I cannot see nor possibly imagined or know; in the unseen unknowable hearts of men and in their minds; and in the world of spirits and angels.
All the pieces can fall in place in an instance, in an utterance. What we do now, in faith, is to collect, prepare and treasure the pieces, which for the moment can be inexplicable or incomprehensible, even painful and despairing.
And we can have faith for God is faithful.

No offense, even though you speak from the heart, I find your writings here very depressing.
And it's very Christian and God focussed. I was thinking you will be writing things similar to those that you send me, like the chair analogy and what is sex.
Well I can write those stuff, but that's not the intention in this particualr blog, which is to record whatever I have heard God spoke, ie His personal revelations to me. For how else can you know that God is a living God, except that he be alive, like you and me. And how else can I know that you exists as a living person, having not seen you at all, but only from the thigns we write and say to each other. So the same it will be for God. And this blog is to record the things that God says to me.
As to the depressing things. It is only seemingly so, or at least to me. Perhaps you like to elaborate why you say it is depressing? Did it evoked depression in you or you feel I am depressed?
