Well, better late than never, they say. So, though late, here I go again. I just gained some insight into life that I would like to share with y’all. So a couple of days back, as I sat at office trying hard to work without any motivation, I decided to listen to some music to clear up my muddled head. So I put on my favourite online radio station, and guess what, the song that plays is “Our God” by Chris Tomlin. Now this is one of the many songs that I had only heard for the first time at church and today I am going to tell you how that song changed the way I perceived my life. Before I start, here is a link to the song:

For the past few days, I think I have been having the usual self doubts, fueled by the words of people who mouth off whatever random thoughts passes their mind. I am sure we all have a couple of people in our life who are always ready to point out our shortcomings. But why is it that we, who know and believe that there is a God that loves us beyond measures, fail to understand that our God loves every single thing about us and would never let any harm come to us.

Every single time when faced with a situation where I feel that I am not able to face or overcome it, I fail to realize that if I could just believe and ask my God to help me, that situation would not look so scary anymore. Anyways, same was the case that day, and when I actually listened to the song, I realised how silly I was to worry. Again, here are the lines that got me thinking:

It’s just these two lines that made me realise that when we know our God is for us, there is nothing that could ever stop us and if we believe that our God is with us, there is no one who can stand against us.

So the next time you worry about something silly like

• Why am I not good enough? Am I not putting in enough effort?
• Why is my hard work not recognized? Is giving up on my principles the only way to grow?
• How will I manage a family? I don’t earn enough.
• What if it rains? How will I ride home?
• Am I smart enough for this?
• Will I ever learn the skills required for this job?
• Why can’t I look like her/him?

Ok, honestly, these are just random things that I am sure all of us fear and I am sure there are many doubts and speculations that run through all your minds. But the idea and gist of what I am trying to say is, that whenever these thoughts creep into your mind, just pray and surrender your worries to God knowing that He would find a way to relieve you of all your worries, because…

Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!

Well I am pretty sure that this is indisputable! Good day/night and hope my words have made sense to some.
