Keep Going !

    KEEP GOING. WHEREVER YOU ARE RIGHT NOW.

The more we get older; the more we tend to be confused, but please keep on going. Move forward. Pick up the pieces. Dream again. Believe again. Have faith. Have courage. Things will be alright. Be full of hope. Live. Choose life. Speak blessings. Pray. Travel the world. Love yourself. Be gentle and kind. Fight. Don't give up. Be determined. You are not alone. 

Yes, I am talking to you. Keep going. 

We are in the same boat my friend. We may not be having the same name or struggles in life but I am with you. 

I am having a break from a stressful circular world and I ended up reading the book of Ecclesiastes yesterday. So, I hope that you will find time to read it too. It is life changing.

I want to be honest with you my friend. I do have pending works to do. I have struggles and fears in my heart and my mind is cluttered with so many thoughts, and to do lists to finish. I found myself too busy and haven't done anything. So, I decided to take a break, a sip of coffee, exercise, listen to old hymns, eating chips, staying at my friends house, watching movies, had a massage, sketching designs, played guitar, and here.. writing.. I just miss this moment. I hope you will find time to drop everything and just do the things that you love my friend.

I checked with Dr. Google, what is the mystery of these words, "Keep going", means, this is his answer.

To make an effort to live normally when in difficult situation. Wow. This is so precised!. It is not easy, but we have to make an effort. There might be things that needs to be changed or was changed. There might be people who left, because of the change, but my friend, keep going.

Live with a purpose. As I am writing these right now, I am also talking to myself. Many times, I have been living my life and so excited to what it brings and ended up, standing in the same ground. Everything that I have worked hard for were gone. Why? I do things without wisdom and purpose that comes the Lord. 

And then I crossed to this amazing verse from the book of Ecclesiastes.

Ecclesiastes 2:11 

Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done
    and what I had toiled to achieve,
everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind;
    nothing was gained under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 2:26

To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

These scriptures are just one of the best explanations why we toil and ended up chasing the winds. This is inspired by the Holy Spirit and was written by the King Solomon, the wisest man alive.

What I have grasps from these scriptures is that, we need to work hard and do our best, but we always include God as the center of it. For no matter how hard we work and have money, we don't have the wisdom, knowledge and happiness that comes from the  father, then, everything is just nothing. If you are going to read through the whole book, you will be enlightened on what is the meaning of life. I want you to read it now. Let God speak to your hearts my friend and be transformed by the renewing of your mind through His Word.

In everything give thanks. May it be struggles or you're maybe in the cloud 9 in your life right now. Let us not forget to thank God. In our struggles, we will see miracles and that is one of the moments where we truly seek God. We are so desperate to find the answer and to get out from that specific situation. I can say this, because I was been there my friend. That struggles led me closer to God. That moment was one of the most unforgettable encounter that I had with Jesus. I was so desperate to find rest in His presence as I was so tired racing in this life. He is the only one who changed the way I see life. And of course, let us not forget God in the days of abundance. We thank Him and use that moment to share to others what He has done so that He will be glorified. By this, we will be able to understand life and able to keep our feet on the ground as we reflect God's goodness.

Give. Maybe right now, you are tired of giving everything that you can offer in life my friend. Giving so much love and not getting in return. Giving so much help and not acknowledged. Giving so much time and ended up being left. Don't be too tired to give. There is always more in giving than receiving. You may not see it right now, but time will come, you will reap what you sow..But always keep something for yourself. Love yourself. Give yourself the best that you can  in this life as well. Live a balance life my friend. Give it to those whom God told you to give.

Forgive. My friend, I know it is hard. I was there before, but eventually I did it! I get over it!Please give yourself a favor, release all the negative energy and hatred in your heart. It is too consuming. Don't let circumstances or people take away your joy. your peace. your freedom. your life. Don't. It is your life to live, you have a choice, and  you have the right to be happy. Forgive as fast as you can. Not by our own strength, but by His grace, we can forgive.

In every battle in life. Pray. 

Life has its own season. Be Patient.

God has the answer. Seek God.

Love is everywhere. Start with yourself.

There is no impossible with God. Trust Him.

God can make a crooked path straight. Surrender.

SEEK GOD. LIVE WELL. It will come to pass. Keep Going, my friend.
