So this is what God is trying to say to me tonight. :D I was so troubled about my shortcomings and failures lately. I can’t even think the right thing to make myself better. I became out-focused on God. But this time God helped me to fix my eyes on Him again. God’s message for today is about Revelations 2. Our preacher delivered it so well and it really struck me and led me to repentance. XD
Revelations 2 is a letter to the church of Ephesus. God commended this church for their hardwork, perseverance and wisdom in God’s word. But one thing God is holding up against them is that this church lost their focus on God, their first love. We can say that this church is almost perfect and maybe everyone wants to be in this kind of church. But God pointed out that He is more concern on what we do to Him not in what we do for Him. Sometimes we’re too focus on how we can invite people and how to contribute in the growth and development of our church. But it’s good that we do these things. However, God wants us to focus on Him, rely on His power and be fully dependent on what He can do.
I was backreading on godsradicaldaughter’s blog (awesome blog! :D) and it seemed God put a spark in my heart. He started putting a fire inside me and it’s like God is calling me higher to serve Him. Honestly, lately my view of God’s love is very narrow (sorry God for this…), so I decided to focus on God’s word. I want to understand more His love for us…I want to know Him more. :)
I felt very blessed tonight especially because of this scripture, “I am the Lord your God, I am holding your hand, so don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.” —Isaiah 41:13.
I am the Lord your God. Be still and know that He is God. Wow! very uplifting. We often forgot that we are serving a big God, the creator of Heavens and earth. He is our God, we are His.
I am holding your hand. What a great words coming from our Lord. :D God is holding our hands. We may let go but God is faithfully holding us until the very end.
So don’t be afraid.I am here to help you.I sometimes feel insecure and small whenever I see someone who is better when it comes to everything. -.- Being a student, I really want to share my faith to my friends and classmates. I am not going to school to prove something— I want to share JESUS to them. But I’m afraid of what they may think or say about me. But God wants us to take courage. :D “My child, don’t be afraid. I am here to help you.” -Your Dad, Almighty God
There is only one man we should please—- God. He loves every bit of you. :)
Father, keep the fire burning inside me. I want to know you more. I want to see more of You Lord. May this life you gave me bring glory to You. Help me to share Your love to other people. You own my life and my heart. All I know this time is that I am not worthy of everything you gave me. But you made me worthy because You died for me. I will bring praise, I will rejoice, I will declare. You are my victory and You are here.
In Christ,
Me
Whew, >.< summer class was finally over! :D totoong bakasyon na talaga. :) ang gusto ko lang naman sa bakasyon na to ay maging fruitful ako :D at syempre magrow as a person at yung knowledge ko about God. Gusto ko pa talaga syang makilala ng lubusan. Gusto kong malaman ang walang hanggan nyang pagmamahal satin. :D At syempre I’ll spend my time reading His words. Kaya lang hindrance talaga ang tumblr, twitter at fb. Di ko na namamalayan ang time. Wasted. -.- Kaya ngayon goodbye muna ulit sa mga bagay na ito. :) I cannot serve two masters at the same time. XD
I’ll take another leap of faith. :) Sabi nga don’t settle on the same spirituality.
“If I’m not pointing people to Jesus then I’m wasting my life.” Aaron Gillespie. Super nastruck lang ako sa nabasa kong ito. Grabe itong si Aaron Gillespie. Ang tindi ng conviction. :D Nakakacall higher. :D
Ngayon, gusto ko talaga mainlove pa lalo kay God. I want to focus on Him and to be dependent in His power. :)
“What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ” - Philippians 3:8
