Hunger...Thirst...

 One day, while traveling from work to home, I felt so hungry and thirsty. I am also not feeling very well that time. What I did was, I went to a fast food and ate breakfast for a while. But it wasn't enought. I still feel cold and lost. I feel so empty. I decided to reflect on what happened to me.

Then, I found myself searching for an answer. Lately, I've been asking God, "How may I know You better? Deeper? more intimate? when the people around me cannot sustain my spiritual need? When they can't help me fire up my faith?"

I know. I know. That I shouldn't depend my faith on my surroundings. But the bible says in
 I Thessalonians 5:11, "Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing." And I think, that's where I was lacking. I don't have a group that encourage me. I don't have a group that tells me that's everything gonna be fine. I don't have a group that prays for me and prays with me. I don't have a group that continualy talks to me and ask me how I was. It saddens me.

Though I manage to have my daily devotion. I pray and keep laying to God my heartaches, I know I still need some people to be with me and worship God together. I actually miss that feeling.

Right now, I am happy. That I know I am no longer just another Christian but I am growing by the Grace of God and it is a great thing that happened to me. I found myself longing for more of God. I found myself thirsty for God's Word.

Now, I am praying for God's guidance in my personal decisions and I am praying to have a deeper and more intimate relationship with God. I hope you could pray for me too. :)
