My Faith Is Vividly Clear

God is so good, all the time


I am never a religious person. I was born and raised by my parents in an Iglesia Ni Cristo way, but i studied on a catholic school for almost 15 years (1992-2007), i can lead an entire rosary and even know every line in a catholic prayer.
Iglesia Ni Cristo has different beliefs --- we don't see Jesus as the God the Father, He is the Son of God but He is not God himself.
I don't believe (personally) on the Holy Trinity : as stated in a catholics as One Father, One Son, and One Holy Spirit, because as far as i understood it, they are different.
I was in an argument earlier today as i finished taking breakfast, he was my nanay's friend and he was saying that knowing the divine trinity is a basic tool, i agree, but i departed and went to sleep as i stated: "i believe that we need not have to know everything, because that would be very impossible, all we need to know is a little bit of almost everything, and besides, its not my church who will save me, its my faith."
anyway, i just want to make it clear that i have nothing against catholics, INC and any other sects, what matter is that, we learn to respect each other faith, beliefs because that is our own prerogative.
i didn't wrote this to bring confusion among others --- i have other things in mind.
when i stated that God is good, i am talking generally. as whole. God of who ever believes in Him, God as the ultimate creator of Heaven and earth, God as what is written on Genesis, the Alpha and the Omega. the beginning and the end.
when i stated God is good, i mean every single word i uttered. what is good about God is that He listens. He answers prayers and He don't give hardships to people when He himself knows that the person cannot tolerate the suffering. sometimes we are tested on how strong our faith to God is, and how much we cling on to Him and only Him in the midst of everything.
there are only few times in our life that we remember God, its when we are suffering and experiencing pain, but we seldom remember Him if we are in good health and alive and active.
this is what i learned. and im talking about this because this is what i noticed with my self.
but God really is so good, for i can attest to that. there are times when i cannot control the mixed emotions that i feel. the multiple problem and the out of control events in life, and all i do is pray deeply and ask Him to take everything and i declare that He take everything from my shoulder and take away all my sufferings.
He truly is a miraculous God for i noticed, that most often than not, my problems are slowly becoming handy and answers are readily available.
my faith become stronger now as i wrote this. my faith becomes vivid clear---
i hope at some point, some will read this and realize that theres a need for him to change a little bit of his/her faith. and never put things on a "ill that tomorrow" basis, for we do not know when tomorrow ends.
