Sorry that didnt managed to post my devotions yesterday.
Came back quite yesterday because I went to have supper with Terence. Experience is certainly enjoyable with him., and on the other hand, getting to know this special uncle we have, a bit more. :)
As God uses Dad bring us back to where we are to
My first love, is indeed, Him.
Well, without Him, I dunno what is love, not about mentioning what is giving true love to someone I love.
It is indeed by Grace, I was brought back to Him, enjoying His Spirit guiding me along as I work, howevr, thank God for Dad's reminder, one of the tasks, or in fact, I should change it into a habit is to desire for Him more and more. Praying is the thing I always do back in the past, and it's quite long time. On the other hand, this greatest Father that I ever have, is someone who is super interesting, and even to the Ends of the Earth, I cant even find. Time may seems lesser, but the desire for Him is even more, beacuse I am so weak and vunerable, anything can just throw me down.:)
Time maybe limited but it's sufficient.
All after all, I still thank God, for He is always with me.
11We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians, and opened wide our hearts to you. 12We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us. 13As a fair exchange—I speak as to my children—open wide your hearts also.
2 Corinthians 6: 11 to 13.
Hearts seems to be heartened easily, especially the world turns a blind eye to you. Secondary schoolmates do not even bother with you, and yup, hardly anyone understand you. However, I do realised, that is the most important of our lives to make ourselves, not defensive, and in fact weak in all circumstances. we are not from the world, and Our Father in Heaven, has always asked us to have a soft heart. Open our hearts, even people hurt us.
If you don't give or open your hearts to others and even to Him, how much do you expect to let God to work in you? No pain, no gain.
14Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there between Christ and Belial[b]? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people."[c]
17"Therefore come out from them
and be separate, says the Lord.
Touch no unclean thing,
and I will receive you."[d]
18"I will be a Father to you,
and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty."
2 Corinthians 6:14 to 18
So do not be part of them, that is what I learnt. In fact be a social hazard. It's never easy, because it's impossible for you not to gossip about people around, but on the other hand, we speak of others' goodness.
2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2
The match was something special for me to know. How God is teaching His people.
Very interesting.
Loving His people wisely.
Thank God for everything. :D
