Why God is my new best friend

He is the most powerful one that he was able to give each one of us talents, skills and attitude, he is the most reliable listener, giver and a creator. But let me tell you why God became my new best friend.

After I graduated from college, me and my best pal transferred from Manila to Subic, Zambales, it was just a quick plan to stay there in a few months to test if we are capable to live on our own. Months have passed and my pal needs to go back to her hometown and I was torn between a decision whether to stay alone, continue to work until I have something in me that my family will be proud of or go home without any accomplishments in my life.

That was the time, I was able to conquer and forget about my doubts, God helped me to move forward and find another job, He never fails to give answers when am feeling doubtful and weary. I enjoy working as a writer in my second job and every night I pray to give thanks for giving me strength to continue my journey in a city that is never been my home town without anyone to depend on.

Year and a half have passed and I felt that I  am no longer happy and satisfied at my second job since it has caused me to lose people I never thought will never leave me for richer or for poorer. I was devastated back then, I was asking God why He let did these things happened to me? One night in my apartment, I was crying over and over again for the things that happened to me and no one is there for me and I realized  God has moved me in ways I cannot imagine.  You want to know what it was?

He showed me the light that will guide me unto my path with right choices and right people, I felt His love when I am no longer connected to the people who hurt me and telling me that I need to be the person that will pass their standards. I told myself from that day on, I will never let anyone changed me into someone that I AM NOT. God and I were able to solve my problem to find a better place to work with people that have good hearts and indeed open-minded ones. Here I am now, working in a new company with my new family at heart.

I thought it was the end of my worries after I found my third job, I have encountered an obstacle that tested me whether to trust Him again or lose my faith in Him. There was a time that I got tired from pushing myself to my limits at work and I have no penny to buy myself a dinner meal even a single coin, I thought it was the first time ever in my entire life that I won’t be able to sleep without any food on my hungry tummy.

Suddenly, my partner was able to go home with a food and a smile on his face and hugged me and said “Today we don’t have to worry about our dinner meal, God is indeed a good provider”.

All these adventures of ours, I have come up with realizations that it’s true, God will never give us obstacles without nurturing us life lessons and will keep us to move forward and love the life you are entitled to borrow.

Until then, I have found my new best friend and it is Him. J
