Reflection

I'm reading Exodus 17 right now, behind time from my scheduled one-year Bible-reading plan.

I came across this part which says how the Israelites grumbled & asked Moses for water when they lack. They failed to trust in God & His promises despite all the signs & miracles done previously (like the manna incident in the previous chapter).

I was reflecting a while ago. I thought, I'm just like the Israelites right now. When it seems to be lacking something in my life; certain changes, I will ask God why like this & like that. Yet, I fail to reflect on God's goodness in my life so far.

Forgive me, Lord, for failing to remember Your mercy & Your goodness in my life. Help me, Lord, for I am imperfect. Thank You for breaking me so I can be whole. May I walk each second with Your covering, with reflections of Your grace in my life for they are sufficient for me. And when I'm weak, Lord, You are my strength.

"I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing i've made it
When it's all about You
It's all about You, Jesus"
