I Still Believe

Title: I Still Believe
Scripture:
Proverbs 16:1
The plans of the mind belong to mortals, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.

Proverbs 16:9
The human mind plans the way,
    but the Lord directs the steps.

Hello, how have you been? Kumusta?

Tonight, I unexpectedly watched a movie and its title is I Still Believe. This movie is based on the true story of an American singer and his faithful wife who died of cancer. I can relate to the movie because in the last two months my sister passed away because of her heart and skin disease. 

Just like how the married couple in the movie keep their faith in God so as our family, until my sister's last breath, prayed for healing and God's will.

My sister was in great pain. I saw her and it hurt me so much. I prayed to God. I prayed to God to heal my sister, I asked for a miracle. God has extended my sister's life for a week. 
But not a single word did she say she's going to die. She said , "laban lang tiwala lang."

When we pray it doesn't mean that it is going to happen the way we want it to be. We can say everything to God, we can tell him all. BUT, the answer is up to God, what He wants and wills.

When the will of God prevails, we need to accept it even when we don't understand it, even when it is a matter of life and death.

God is good, God is faithful, God is true to his words and promises, God has the best plan for all of us.

God gives us life on earth to experience the seasons of life ( in comfort and in pain) and he is always there for us. Life is about experiencing God's greatness in different ways. Death may seem the end but it's the time we can fully be with God through our faith in Jesus Christ.

We can trust God even when we can't see
Even when we can't see, let's still believe. And that's Faith.

"Suffering does not destroy faith, it refines it."
"God is worth trusting even when we can't see.'' (Melissa Henning-Camp)
