Chanuka Erdita (whom I follow on Twitter) writes in God Bless This Broken Road

I was sitting down on my chair deeply reflecting of what was going on in my life. The temptation to throw my rants of complain to God was there. But I chose to stand up and let my thoughts and feeling knelt down before me. By the grace of God, my freewill chose to praise His goodness and gave thanks for His neverending blessings. From the point of view of the world, everything in my life is messed up currently. My wife is going through a stage 4 cancer, my own company is still not able to cover all of the family expenses, I need to take on double-jobs while running the company, my grandma whom I love so much passed away on the same weekend and she is half a globe away from me on the other side of the world.

My spirit was crying to God and I knew He was listening. His arms are outstreched to keep me from falling. I want to please God but I keep finding ways in making him sad through my sins. But I keep running towards Him no matter what. I made a decision a long time ago that there was no one else that could take His place in my heart…

Please pray for Chanuka, his wife and family, but more so, pray that we as Christians exhibit this level of faith in our lives.
