"No temptation has over taken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. but when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so you can endure it." - I Corinthians 10:13

Hi! Im Emalin Ricka Y. Banayat, and for me, I am one of His child. And whatever happens I know He wont let me down.
I've experienced a lot of problems.. personal problems, about family, my friends, even at school, and on my own self.. Every time I'm having difficulties I'm just going to bend my knees and pray to Him then all of a sudden I'm going to feel the relief that I'm longing for.. its just like I already have the solution for my problems.. like I already have the answers that I'd seek for.
Let me share a story from my past life..
I had this past relationship, the wrong one, I guess. It came to the point when me and my family had a conflict just because of it. I lost my position in church.. I lost my parent's, specially my mom's trust, I lost my sibling's respect.. I even lost myself. What I only have is Him.. what I only have is the rights to worship Him.. I cried a lot, every night, every morning, even in the afternoon whenever I eat my meal or even when I go to the bathroom.. that's how broke I am.. that's how I was hurt.. so much.. that's how I'm lost..

I faked up all of my happiness, I acted fine and alright in front of many people, I acted strong in front of my family.. but I guess things are just not right.. things became more complicated.. became more worst.. I became more stoned heart.
I tried finding myself.. I tried being strong and smart on my decision making in life, I tried fixing myself on my own.. I tried being contented on my family and on my true friends, I tried putting all my focus on my studies, and also on worshiping Him.. I became smarter and a bit tougher than I am before. I learned how to stand on my own, not to depend my happiness on other's hand that's not permanent in my life.. and I'm thanking Him because of that.. I'm thanking Him for making me strong.. I'm thanking Him for having my lessons learned.
For me, everything will be easy specially when you have Him in your life.. maybe you'll be facing some difficulties and challenges in life but He wont give you problems that you cant endure.. and most of all, He wont give you things that you wont learn from it. Because in this life, test comes first before the lesson.

I really love you blog Ems! :) How you share your story, how you showed a part of your life in this blog. Your experiences in life was really heartbreaking and I feel you. Haha But it was all worth it, because you got to know God and I agree to what your last statement that you may face problems and difficulties in life but God will not give you this if you can't do it. So stay strong with God. :)
