What I’m saying is that, it’s not just about your good morals, singing and listening to gospel songs, regularly being at that bible study meeting , dressing conservatively or being on that missions trip.
It’s about God being your goal because all the
seasons of struggle, doubt, despair, victory,
defeat and faith are just parts in the whole story. I hope these all makes sense but you are welcome to disagree.
While growing up, I had "role models" - people I wanted to be like and impress so much. I would have done anything to be like them. But if I
had just stopped worrying about that and believed in how unique and special I was. And just enjoyed the inspiration I got from their lives and not worry
about trying too hard to be like them, I would have maybe become even more successful. I'm sure, more than anything, the Lord wants us to just spend time with Him and enjoy what we share and stop trying desperately to impress Him with works or activities.
PS: I have some people to thank for these recent changes.You know yourselves :) Thanks for giving your services as gifts to help support my cause for this blog and my other goals.

Yea, I think monitoring and keeping records of changes in ones life is another great skill/attitude everyone should develop; this helps one in knowing ones pace, enabling you to do more!
ReplyDeleteIbe I appreciate you so much..those supporting you are very fortunate ..
We should enjoy our relationship with God, its something we should be happy about, its a rare privilege.. yes!! ...He choose us ...and made us to be fruitful,...that our joy will be full
Its not ONLY by work/activities trying to please Him base on mans understanding: DO MORE TO ATTRACT HIM.
CONSIDER:
1.WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU?
2.WHAT REALLY MOTIVATES YOU:LOVE FOR GOD OR ACTIVITIES/FUN
3.WHO DO YOU REALLY WANT TO PLEASE?
Wow! Thanks also for those encouraging words. You've made a lot of sense! Got to start pondering on those questions too.
