Perfect Trust

There is only one thing God wants of us, and that is our unconditional surrender.
How are we going to get the life that has no lust, no self-interest, no sensitiveness to pokes, the love that is not provoked, that thinketh no evil, that is always kind? The only way is by allowing not a bit of the old life to be left; but only simple perfect trust in God, such trust that we no longer want God's blessings, but only want Himself. Have we come to the place where God can withdraw His blessings and it does not affect our trust in Him?

Recently, someone who knows me very well told me how weak and feeble my faith was in God..when I expressed my concerns and burdens in my heart. It really got me to look back at myself once again..not because of my misbelief about my faith, but because it actually warned me to stop sinning against God. What a blessing to know that God uses different people in life to speak to me.
I went to bed around 9pm last night... felt like I achieved something so great this morning. It was probably the earliest time I ever went to sleep after high school. I still dragged myself to get ready to go to work ...it's defninitely harder waking up in chilly weather like these days. Had a long weekend away from home and busy day at church. Uncomfortable wedding...long distance driving in rain..and flat tire ...although, I only watched all the work to be done...I mentally stressed out. I almost wanted to blame someone else for my flat tire since I hardly ever drive around...but then I should have taken initiative to take a good care of my own car if I knew of the problem. I was so grateful to God for bringing me home safely once again.
