Prayer Feb 3, 2008
Dear God,
It's been so long since we last "formally" talked to one another. In the previous months I basically only threw questions at you at random. Perhaps while I was walking. Perhaps while I was taking a bus. Perhaps while I suddenly got up. You know the deep sorrow or turbulence in me. Just trying to mingle the fact that You are indeed the source of true love and the fact that indeed I suffer greatly brought me immense distress. With whom can I share such dreadful feeling, something much worse than losing my mother? It is such solitude let me empathize how you once felt when you were on earth---thinking your Father has abandoned you in your horrible suffering.
Nonetheless, I am thankful for all the little exchanges with different people through different channels. Even more thankful for letting me thoroughly understand the limitation of rationality. Also thank you for seeing the incompatibility between Christians and the world. I hope the road I have gone through could be the blessing of others. Please help me capitalize my experience in order to serve others in the way that fits your will.
Please help me focus on acting your will rather than looking at the consequences or outcome, doing which had greatly stumbled me. Please strengthen my faith so that I could see beyond all the imperfections of the world and be a blessing of this daunting place. Please accept my questioning nature for I will surely throw more questions at you. I will never understand why there are so much sufferings on earth. Perhaps it is where Christian come into utility.
Please take away all my burdens and make me realize that there only this much I can do. Make me your faithful servant, for that is the source of real joy and peace albeit there might be pain and tears.
You know I love you and that's why I was so deeply hurt. Please mold me into something that fits your will.
Good night and see you.
Your son,
Sam
