The power of faith is truly indescribable. How many wars have been fought just for the sake of faith alone? Yet I cannot understand one thing. God created us and chose us as children of God to spread the gospel not to destroy people for the sake of enforcing it. Why? Why do people die for a cause that is unknown?

The gospel spreads through our hearts and our actions, by learning and presenting ourselves to be more Christ-like, we touch other lives. Why fight? Why did the Crusades take place which lead to killing and more killing? Killing another human makes you a murderer, does it not? How can you call yourself an acolyte of Christian faith if we've killed another a believer or not? Fighting to what cause?

The world is fighting now, not for a cause i understand. Terrorists bomb, countries retaliate by destroying the innocent. How many lives lost? How much do Man have to fight before they realise all this is aimless and uncalled for? Yet no one realises that a problem remains unsolved. What about people who are poor and uncared of in developing countries? They could be saved if you channeled all the money and efforts in war to this cause. Like Black eyed pea's "Where is the love?" pleads, Father help us from above.

Lord, you are El shaddai, help this world that you've created and work through your children Lord.

I can't say how many times in this week, i've cried out to you and you've answered and truly i can say that your are Jehovah Jireh, our provider =) My patience was unchecked yet you didn't let me go, my anger let loose, yet you held on to my peace.

Thank you, Lord for coming into my life. For without you, i can't imagine what life would be like.
