seeing is not believing.

Thank you for pulling me up in the nick of time. You know, at times you made me feel that I was alone, neglected and worst, forgotten. When I thought of you and when I called out for you, the thoughts and shoutouts would take a detour back to me. Your ambiguity made me really baffled...too awfully. Maybe you were too busy trying to fix another's problems and mine were too trivial to be ministered. So I tried to not rely on you because I was pretty convinced that I was not worthy of your time nor your effort. However, I consoled myself that one day you would appear in front of me and tell me: "I will always be here for you." You never did but you sent your family to affirm me that you're faithful to me and that you'll never give me up. Still, how was I supposed to trust that you love me when I can't even see you? Nevertheless, your family's assurance did make me feel better. I continued to wait for your arrival, I really needed to see you, I needed to see you to know that you are for real and that you'll stay by my side.

After multiple rounds of tussles, I finally understood your intentions and who you truly are. If you answer my calling, you strengthen my faith in you; if you delay in responding, you make me more patient; and if you don't respond at all, it's only because you believe in me. I now know that, no matter what, you always hear my calling and read my thoughts, I just need to...trust in you. Trust without any doubt.

To others, seeing is believing. To me, believing is seeing. All I need is to have faith in you and you will eventually unveil your good plans for me.


All praises to You, Father God.
