i slept early last night for the tiresome work and the problems i had and is having with regards to myself. and then woke up to see others still awake. and then finally woke up at 4 am and do my assignments in one of my subject. things are so different now. i see my body as offered to sinful nature. indulging into its unglorigying desires. i had seen this body and this life fail a lot of times. others were affected because of my sinfulness and inability to overcome temptation and run from it. i have a lot of problems, and there are still responsibilities that is given to me. somehow, i could not deny that i wanted to be a child again. without problems, without struggles (different struggles).. and so i went to my fortress, my stronghold where i find relief and understanding,. and also discipline. i go to my God. HE is really near and is calling me. and so i went up and read the Bible. 1 Corinthians 15:42-49 is the verse. i shared it here. and there is a story behind it also.. as i pondered upon the verse, i understand now that this body is really of dust. sown in corruption, in weakness, in dust. but God is raising it in power. the second man, JESUS CHRIST, was here 2008 years ago to prove to all that HE loves me. i am suffering and struggling with this life and self i have,. i don't like what happened to me when i was a kid. there's a lot of regrets and desires. there's a lot. and so i longed for the Second coming. when the Lord will come, and then He will save me. i am not worthy, but i believe in Him. and so, even though i have the likeness of the first Adam, sooner i will have the likeness of the second Adam, JESUS CHRIST. it is a lifelong process though.. my body is really sown in weakness, but sooner also, it will be raised in power. and surely it has already been raised too.. praise the LORD!
