Had a little bit of headache today and went to the hospital for check up.I was directed to sit and wait to see the doctor and happened to sit near a lady, she looked a bit older than her age (I found that out after having a small conversation)and was sobbing,bitterly cursing God.
Her brother had just died of bacterial meningitis,for those that know this kind of sickness do understand that it is a dangerous one and the signs that come with it are ones that anyone would automatically take for granted.Back to my main point of writing this.......
She expounded to me how much she had prayed and asked to give her brother a second chance at life, he had died silently,no chance to say his last goodbyes,wishes or confessions.But God had not said a word or reacted to her prayer. I felt this lady’s pain, because I have been down
the same road. I know how tough it is but I didn’t know how to pile words perfect enough for her comfort. I listened silently while she talked and all I managed to do was ask for her number at the time.Went home and I thought of sharing this with anyone that cares to listen.
Many times we tend to lose focus on the most important things. Like expressing love..receiving it and giving it back,asking for forgiveness to those we’ve hurt and forgiving people that have hurt us,we forget to do good and focus more on ourselves than what God really wants us to
do. We keep so many secrets that may endanger other lives because we obviously don’t know when we are going to run out of time. But most importantly we forget to give our lives to God. We forget to confess and ask for forgiveness from the Creator, and by the time we do it is too
late.We tend to ask God for the things we want to have expecting to receive exactly just that,forgetting that He is a supreme God who knows what is best for and what we exactly need at the time,we forget that sometimes we ask what we do not deserve or what we cannot keep.
