it feels so good to be back with God. i realised the Word has become very important. just a 2 days without having daily devotion caused my mood to change so much ( becoming irritated easily etc.) i can't put to words how irritated, tired i felt. im typical human-only treasure the things one has after losing it.

sunday's daily bread really touched me. i felt God speaking to me.before that, it seemed that God was so far and no where to be found but actually it was my fault. the verse for that day was Revelations 3:20 "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me." Jesus is already standing at the door and knock, yet i thought that He was so far and no where to be found. He is knocking on my door, but what was i doing? i was getting irritated and felt empty. Now i experienced it myself and understand how it feels like to feel empty. I've always heard people saying: "without the Word/God, you will not find joy and will feel empty" and i will just be like "ok.." it's really different when you experience God yourself. it's really different. People around me can tell me lots and lots of things but not have any impact or it's just another head knowledge. Only God's spirit is able to move people.

usually, Rev 3:20 would be used by evangelists, sharing with unbelievers to open their doors, so i thought that explore would talk about us reaching out to our friends etc. but i was wrong! from explore (word for word): "these words are frequently used by evangelists, appealing to unbelievers to open their hearts to Christ. But look again. Jesus is not addressing unbelievers at all, but members of a local church (v14)! Jesus wants to get back inside the lives of Christians who have become 'lukewarm'." i was like.. 0.0 i felt as if the book was written for me, to me! amazing how God speaks isn't it? i thank God for the people who wrote at the Explore sections to share with us.

Open up your doors and let Him in. you'll be amazed by the kind of joy He can give.
