Hits. And misses.

There have been plenty of times when things just don't go the way we wished they had happened. Tangible stuff, and intangible ones. It's as easy to misplace trust in someone as it is hard. Feeling hurt is becoming nothing more than a mere state of mind. The pace in which things move around us, we can never keep up with it.

Sometimes I wonder how it will be like if I could just live in a world of my own, I don't have to talk to people, I don't have to be concerned about what others are concerned about. That isn't any good either. Thoughts of being alone is unchartered territory, somewhere I do not wish to dwell for I am made to be relational.

Picking up from lessons I have learnt and moving on, I have resolved that it is pointless to put absolute trust in another person. I thought I trusted someone I knew well, but it was never trust at all. I am now full of doubt and skeptical with whatever is said, tainted with my perception of whom I've lost my trust to. It might grow into something malicious, or tables might just turn. It is beyond my control. I do not know what is going to come.

God has never failed. He has not failed and he will never fail. He is who I trust, He is who I have absolute faith in. You can beg to differ by all means, but you will not even shake me because I have my feet firmly planted. I will not move, I will just trust and pray.

I have met new people who are supportive and encouraging. God has placed me in a community of Christians in the midst of a mission field. Hand in hand we will put on the full armour of God and head out, not fearing because of our hopes in Christ. Can I trust those I fight alongside with? At the current stage, yes. We all start out trusting others till that trust is breached. The road is tough, but those who are in Christ are unbeatable.
