Meaning of being "together"

Sometimes it's so easy to just hide our true feelings from our friends and to show a calendar face, pretending that nothing's wrong. But aren't we deceiving ourselves by doing that? It just gets harder to turn back afterwards.

Don't forget that we can seek solace in God, because only He can see our hearts within and give us peace. We as humans are flawed, we aren't perfect, but that doesn't mean that we cannot rely on God to sustain us.

Many a time, people will tend to rely on themselves to solve their problems. Sometimes it works, but most of the time, it doesn't. It just resurfaces and return to taunt you again. But that isn't true with God in the centre of our lives. He is, afterall, the almighty. What can He not do? Therefore we should, like what Paul said in Philippians.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7

People may fail you, but God will never fail us.

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."
John 14:27

for the time when water hits.

We have God, who is able, and will transcend all our troubles. That is, if we are willing to commit them all to Him. =)
