for the longest time, i've been very troubled. the sins were piling up, prayers felt half-hearted, i had become worldly. instead of 'fessing up, i buried myself in work. i found i couldn't pray anymore because guilt filled my heart each time i tried. at some point, when i did try, i heard nothing - His voice was gone. i thought, for one moment, that i had lost Him forever.

easter sunday is a special day for Christians because this day, we celebrate His resurrection - His triumph over sin, death and evil. for me, easter sunday is also the day i found my way back to Him after five dark, long months. this was the day i heard His voice again, and felt his warm embrace i've needed for so long.

after all this time, after all i had done, He still loves me.


verse for the day:
for i am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. [romans 3:38,39]
