Not going to miss You

Psalm 28

David doesnt want God tobe silent, or he would become like one of the men who do not know go and were destroyed. Do you want God to be silent in your life? How would it feel if God doesnt speak to you? That will be terrible to me, cant hear God, it's like, i would be left lost, without hope, without love. Then how would it feel if you call and He will not hear you? When He ignores you? *glurps*

Verse 3-5 talks about the wicked, who are those who do evil, speak well with people, but actually have evil intents in their hearts. In other words, they are hypocrites. How many of us meet people like this? Or even are like that ourselves? God says these people have no regards for God and His work, thus God will tear them down and they would never be built up again.

But those who are willing to be His people, God will be their strength and shepherd. Again, God is not referring to those with strong faith in Him. Our faith may be small.. What God is looking for is willingness and obedience.

And i was reminded of a passage that hit me pretty hard on sun, luke 9:41-44. Jesus wept for Jerusalem because of the condition of the people. They did not receive the peace of God, through Jesus, nor were obedient to Him. They did not recognise the time of God's coming to them. Thus Jesus said they will be destroyed by their enemies. Wah... Are we recognising God when He comes to us? Though He is always with us and waiting for us, though His love and grace are unfailing, if we miss Him coming to us, we will be destroyed! Be it physically, like the people in Jerusalem, by war or attacks, or emotionally, or spiritually. Teared down and cant stand up again. So scary...
"Lord, i pray that we can recognise You coming to us today, so that we will never miss out on Your peace and blessings. Lord, teach me to be true and live a pleasing life to You. My faith may be weak, but i am willing. Amen."
