1st lesson in growing deep
"What if one day you find your prayers are no longer answered, petitions no longer granted, will God still be God of your life?"
It jolted me right to the core and caused me to pause for a long time. I found new meaning to "I am saved" and the song thats goes on to say the most beautiful blessing I ever had in life is to know Jesus.
But i held my breathe at the thought of my God, at least to me, no longer answer me. Then i realised deep in me.... i have become self-centred, it has become all about me.
Tough lesson #1. Sobering truths i have had in one sitting tonight. Truths that are supposingly freeing but i guess i need time as usual to digest them, one by one; reminding myself daily of them one by one, so that they will be inscripted upon my heart and my mind.

Reminds me of this verse in Dan 3:
If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us from your hand, O king. But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up
