Tough life vs. Unfair life. Blogging on the go again. Today i heard a great sermon from pastor as always. its about Job. :) Pst talked about how unfairness is present in reality and we got to face the facts. there is a purpose in unfairness, just as how there is a purpose in a tough life. a tough life makes us stronger, but when u face unfairness and still can praise God in spite of that, you become BROKEN towards God. that is like one level above becoming strong. :) I rmb a question asked by one of my besties when we were young. she asked why is life unfair. her mum told her "life is never fair". i still rmb this because of her mum's unique response. and now, i know why life is never fair. like finally! hahaha. so much wisdom in aunty's reply. I felt today's sermon spoke to me extensively. Its one level to be blameless, but another level to be broken towards God. i rmb the time when i was blameless...i had been blameless and i experienced Job chapter1. But now, im moving towards brokenness (perfection in Christ). amen! Sometimes, there is no explanation to offer when u ask why this or that is happening. life is unfair. but God never puts us thru tribulations for nothing, or worse, impose a sadistic nature towards His creation. some ppl think God being God, can do anything and everything including doing evil stuff to humans. lol. if u really really know God, tts furthest from the truth. Job 23:10 have been staring at me all these while even before pst preached abt it today. haha. its my notebook tt i use for recording notes at cg and svc. :) i feel God speaking to me. I just want to say, im thankful to Him for assuring me in ways like this (hearing a sermon that is tailor made for me it seems almost). though im facing challenges and struggles alone (its an individual battle), im never really alone. i have never been alone for God is with me, and dust i was formed, in the form of dust i shall leave... Pst said one thing absolutely right. if we believe God is our source of everything and tt we r really just His stewards, we will nv have a problem with giving to God and His kingdom. because everything is essentially loaned to us - our wealth, assets, talents, 4 limbs and every organ on us, our friends, our influence, .... Oh God is good. Im in the best church God wants me to be in. Im walking the path He is leading me on. Thats all i ask for! :) Labels: contemplative, revelation 3:13 PM
