I have been quiet for awhile...as usual busy working. But just to update my blog, I have a few thoughts that are bottled up inside me. There are things that are disturbing me and have been trying to alter my line of thinking. Things are just too trifling to make a ruckus out of it. But I am reminded that a forest fire starts from a small flicker- a careless one too. And whatever it is that is happening in my life, though how little it is, when it is not glorifying God, has to be rectified. Let me also correct that this is not about being holy...but this is about serving a Holy God.
To recall, God does not tolerate even that what we call gray areas. God sees black and white and no in between. God does not consent lukewarm attitudes or behavior. Most importantly, God deserves our best. He gives His best- His precious Jesus Christ. And the rightful response is to worship Him, honor Him with our behavior, our mind, in things we do and how we deal with others.
Because of this conviction, I fell flat on my face and plead God’s forgiveness. Sometimes, I can’t help but act in my old self, I tend to be morose, disparaging and dismal. Exposing myself is certainly not washing my dirty linen. It is with the purpose to encourage anybody who is also on the same boat that they too will not get discourage. We all are God’s work in progress and that though we are not yet perfect, God by His grace will not leave us nor forsake us but He is encouraging all of us to work it out. That by the grace of God we will overcome whatever challenges that may confront us.
So yeah... Let's work out our spiritual muscles.
