That night, the pastor was teaching about sacrifices to put on the altar,

It sounded a bit unrealistic because I had no house, no money, no car,

So I decided that he wasn't talking to me so far,

But little did I know that I was already on the Lord’s radar.



After a moment, I heard the Lord’s voice telling me:

"Your love for this man is all you have, put your heart on the altar.

Do you want to keep hurting and multiply the scars?

I know your heartbreak, I saw your sorrow and your tears,

I know letting him go is one of your greatest fears,

But trust Me, it's not worth it.

Let me set you free.

Let me give you peace.

I'll take away all of it.

Let Me rescue you.

Let Me make you new.

Let Me take your pain away, and give you a clean slate."



It had been more than 2 years now...

2 years since a heartbreak that kept on breaking my heart,

2 years of lingering and regretting us being apart,

2 years of suffering, hoping one day we'd be back together,

2 years since I started questioning the meaning of "forever".

I had already tried everything to break the covenant,

To rebuke every piece of our souls that were tied,

Prayed, praised, fasted, nothing else had worked,

There was always that glimpse of hope that was dormant.

I tried with my own strength until my brain fried,

But I always ended up back to square one, hurt.



So I took the leap of faith,

and trusted God.

I didn't look back, I knew it couldn't go bad.

I prayed, I let it go, and God provided.

He did exactly what He said,

His name is exalted!

Oh! The sweet peace I gained.

Alleluia! Alleluia!

Let's sing Alleluia.

Alleluia! Alleluia!

Let's sing Magnificat.



Fast forward to 3 years now,

I'm in my bed, writing this down,

Free like never before,

Redeemed to my core,

Right now all can think is "Wow",

God gave me back my crown.

I remember that day when the boss of my boss told him that I didn't know how to receive props. She had congratulated me on my excellent work and I didn't know how to answer, I laughed awkwardly, mumbled, said ''thank you'' and quickly changed the subject.


The reason why it's hard to accept congratulations is quite simple, they are nor mine, they are God's. Everything that I am and everything that I do is through Christ who gives me the strength. I'm only a creature, a vessel, without God I'm nothing. You might find it extreme and you probably want to ask me:" What about when you were not saved?" Well, I was still God's creature, living and being able to do everything just because He decided so. The only difference is that I was blind and I thought the world owed the '' thanks '' to me.


Let me give you an example : Imagine that a robot performs really well, and instead of giving a medal to the creator, you hand it out to the machine. I think you understand now, it would be kind of crazy right all? That's exactly how it is for me. All praise, all thanks and all glory goes to God.

“Do not store up for yourselves [material] treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart [your wishes, your desires; that on which your life centers] will be also.”

Mathew 6.19-21 AMP


Our life is more about what we can’t see with our physical eyes than what we can see. Since we all are three-part beings: Spirit, soul, and body, we have to acknowledge if we only focus on our bodily parts we lose 90% of who we are.


Our treasure is Him. Not our material possessions. Not our relationships. Not even our church.

Our treasure is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Each time, we look for somewhere else for our happiness, we sign for our never-ending pursuit that still leave us empty. What is certain, God did not create the good things on this earth to be our eternal support.

Christ is the river that satisfies us. Do you believe it?


Thus says the Lord:

My love for you is never-ending. You are precious and loved. Don’t be skeptical. And receive only. I promise you my life and I did not fail that promise. My love, come and reside in me and I'll reside in you. May you be at peace and know I am the Lord.



Prayer:

Oh Lord Jesus, there is no one else like You . We desire You more than anything. May You  be the bread we eat every day, the drink we drink, the One we run first when we need help. Let Your  light shine upon us. We don’t want to be thirsty, and unsatisfied anymore. Jesus, let You be our lover and the King of our hearts. Your lovingkindness, oh Lord, is the precious gold that our life is depending on. We love and praise You, not only today but for all eternity. Amen.
