Verse of the day:
Romans 12:1-2
1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God - this is true worship.
2 Do not conform 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.
As I just ponder upon this verse, I notice that we will not be able to test and approve God's will, no matter how good, pleasing and perfect it is...until we are transformed by the renewing of our minds.
Living a life by offering my body as a living sacrifice..to give up all that comes natural to me in order to please God as an act of true worship..it is indeed the toughest thing to do.
But I am learning..and am still learning with a lot of help.
From mentors like Gordon and soon Ps. Reynold for spiritual leadership mentoring..I think it will really help..I hope.
Anyway, it's really tempting when you get something you least expect.
You feel like jumping on the bandwagon but you have to hold yourself back and examine the situation before proceeding...
Well, I'm at that situation now.
It's really tempting..but I have this inner me telling me to hold on and examine.
Well, once again I can only submit it to Him.
He is after all my source of strength and wisdom and everything that is within me.
Ok lah, just felt like venting out some of my inner feelings.
Never too good to keep them in too long:)
Till the time comes again for me to update this blog, nites!
