Trust & Obey

This song was sang during prayer meeting tonight.
The first stanza goes like this:

"When we walk with the Lord
in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey"

While singing that song, I was reminded about Paul's letter to Timothy. When he was first brought before the judge, he was alone. Everyone abandoned him. Yet Jesus was with him, giving him the strength and ability to go through the situations. He was also rescued from 'certain' death. Having cling onto His word, it will be the light unto our paths.

This song goes simple yet contains such truth about Christian life.
To trust is to put your faith in something/someone in reliance.
To obey means to follow instructions and comply.

Suddenly, as it is being revealed that there is a drawing near of hearts, all my weaknesses seem to surface, to appear, made known to me. It's like God's light coming nearer and it reveals even the cobwebs in corners of the house.

It's actually a good thing. You know? :)

And so the journey begins, the journey of trust and obeying. A lot more goes behind those 2 words. Yet I know it is going to be exciting and as fun as it gets, I will daily fight until I learn the way the generals fought.

Ajay! Byahshah!
