Finding my place in this world

This is a big big world, often if we do not even realise, we may be lost in it.

Where is my place in this world? Where do I belong?

What is the right thing to do? Is it according to my feelings? Or am I bounded by the general rules and ethics of the human law?

Most people are directed by our mindsets, our perspectives, our up bringing, what we learned through experiences and heard from the ones we trust and respect.

Nowadays, there are just too many voices in the world. You hear it when put your headphones on, through the songs you listen to, the programmes that we watch, the media that we were exposed with, the different lies that we believe in.

That is why it is such a privilege to live life in the Spirit. Our lives is no longer being tossed back and forth by various teachings but we can stand firm in our own conviction and stay true to our faith in Christ.

Many people can tell you what is right or wrong, what to believe and what not but ultimately, the Holy Spirit is going to be the One to confirm it through the Word of God. Even as I am writing this now, I know not everyone will understand what I was trying to say. This is the whole point. Unless the Spirit reveals to us, we will not understand the things of God.

"because our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction..." 1 Thes 1:5

It's probably not related but this song came to mind :)
