I’ve finally finished reading the Bible. That might not be the best thing ever for everyone. But I’d still be talking about it. I signed up for a Bible reading plan this quarter at YouVersion because of a promise I made to read the entire book. Shame on me for being a Christian for 6 years now, and it took me that long to complete God’s Word. So much for a young Christian. 

Anyhow, the first thing I felt after reading the final chapter of the book of Revelation was that, I am so puny. Very. I’m just a dot on an everlasting whiteboard. I don’t think it’s just my feeling though. Somehow, my eyes were open (God’s Word is the truth, and the truth sets you free) to reality’s reality. Everything I’ve heard about God from the moment I became a Christian, is so different from the actual God I’ve finally started knowing. There was so much more to Him that I’ve known and will ever know.

And now that my eyes are open to the truth, I have a big responsibility in front of me. I’ve resolved to take up my own cross and follow Jesus in every way possible. Not an easy choice to make. But now that I know where I’m going, there’s no point turning back. I’d go straight away to this path He has showed me.

Jesus is just beautiful. Gentle as the gentlest but when He rises with His glory, no heart can contain His majesty. Amazing, amazing, amazing. The Lamb, that was slain for all men to be free (including me – and I didn’t mean to rhyme).

I’ve also learned a lot from Paul and Peter, Elijah, Isaiah, Ezekiel and David, these men. Wow. I can only imagine the kind of life they’ve lived. How they walked on the earth, living God’s truth everyday. How I wish I had such faith! But there’s still time. Today is never too late. Thanks to the grace of God, with faith, it’s possible to please Him.

I realized this thing the most. Things of this world are just too little compared to anything that’s of God. I mean, man is just so foolish to boast of anything. God made everything and everything. Oh how great is He!

I had a pretty rough year. But I’m leaving that behind. With this new found truth and love, doors of 2012 are open and there’s just no, nothing can ever separate from the love of God. And because He loves me, His goodness follow me, all the days of my life. His purpose in me, He will fulfill. That’s something I’m holding on to until my very last breath. To live is Christ, to die is gain.

Don’t get left behind friend, but find out for yourself what the truth is. There’s only one truth. Don’t get swayed by what you see with the eyes. Spirit and soul are invisible and yet they make 2/3 of a human’s being. Not everything can be seen by human eyes. But let God’s word open your eyes to the truth that no mere eye can see. You can even just spend 15 minutes a day for the entire 2012 to know the truth. The truth is free and it will set you free.
