threading the right way now

Two years after playing with the forbidden, the Lord led me back to His fold. All the temporary fun of togetherness was slowly unseated with emptiness and discontent. As painful as it could ever be, I needed to withstand each fruit of mistake and learn its lessons the very hard way.

As the two respected deacons boosted my spirit to sing once again, I found myself guilty of the wasted time carelessly spent for personal glory. “Do not limit the power of God,” they said. “The blessings and genuine joy ahead of you after threading the right way now are far greater than the pain of separation you are currently going through. Let Him take the lead and follow. Let go of the things that God alone should handle. He knows the very best for you, so pray and trust.”

Bowing my head in shame, I cried out the nip of choosing my own desire over His. I could hear Mom’s voice softly echoing on my ear, “Stop blaming the person; you chose him so lay charges to yourself.” It was not until reality poked me with unfathomable anguish that I finally came to my senses and called it quits.

Looking forward to join the choir in a weeks’ time, I now surrender everything to God even the littlest hurt I still honestly have.
