God writes a lot of comedy... the trouble is, he's stuck with so many bad actors who don't know how to play funny. - Garrison Keillor

neverending temptations

It has been almost two months now since the Armour Up Camp I attended last June. I have learnt so much and have been praying with rosary almost everyday. But there's always something that will distract me from doing so. 


The temptations is getting stronger. The more I pray, the stronger it gets. 

I know I have to face these in order to be a good follower of Jesus. I fell into the 'traps' for so many times now and I'm getting sick of it. I don't wanna waste my life to keep falling into these 'traps'. I tried to persevere and pray. Persevere and pray do help me in my everyday life. They help me in seeing the beautiful and wonderful side of others, the surroundings and also myself. I was never my old self again. Pray is my way to talk to Jesus, to God. It brings peace in my heart and mind. A sort of meditation. When I recall during my life last year, I was never in peace. I was never at ease. I talked shits all the time. I watched things I wasn't supposed to. I done things I'm not proud of. It wasn't something major though but still I felt tainted. I kept wanting things. Things I wouldn't need anyways. I hardly spent my time praying and doubted my faith. What I've experienced at the camp had really opened my eyes, my ears and my mouth. 


I saw incredible things, heard of beautiful things and talked in tongue language praising God. 


Things keep getting better after that but with a catch. The catch is those temptations. But all in all, life has been pretty good lately.
