Day 118

Haha, am I allowed to go back to an old day? =P Oh well.

Hrm, how shall I do this? Well, this actually was the first devotion I did in Meet the Bible. And wow, I was a bit shocked. It was kind of like a stupid scared shocked, like, "Woah, how did He know?" But he knows everything so, haha. Yea, lately I've been feeling that God isn't with me anymore (I won't go into details) but when I read this, I had a sudden flashback to July 6th, 2008. Undetailed bad things were happening for a while then and I guess I just broke down and started crying in my room. I felt that no one was there for me.
Then, after my crying episode, I went to turn off my light and right there next to my bed was a little booklet/book that was titled somewhere along the lines of, "Cry Out to HIM". And you know what? I didn't put it there. I hadn't touched that book since I received it about a year ago. How it got there, I really don't know. But I think it was God's way of trying to comfort and talk to me. I was simply amazed.
So after that, I cried some more, but not out of sadness, but more of joy, I then prayed to God, apologizing and telling Him I was stupid to ever think that he would leave me.
"God is always with us. He's always focused on us, always thinking about us, always aware of what we're doing, thinking, and feeling." That was the first thing I read for this devotion. So, uhm, yup. Okay then. Sorry for the shortness. =P
