Pointless

 

 

During my quiet time, the Lord taught me to take satisfaction in resting from job completion. In view of God’s work, the Lord rested on the seventh day from His creation in the past six days of labor (Genesis 2:1-3, 15-20, NIV). The Lord reminded me “Let your work be MY WORK,” and do not be anxious about anything but in everything present your requests to God with thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6, NIV). With prayer in my life, I thank God for giving me the peace of the Lord and to be thankful for every blessing that He has given me, to be less anxious about anything that goes within me today.

In my life, this prompts me to invest my work to God’s work for Him + trusting God to provide me with finances along the way (Ecclesiastes 2:21). For I see how becoming large inheritors has ruined us as children of God or of our parents spiritually and morally through inheriting estate assets of wealth where the subject of properties are debatable issues between couples and families in their living households today.

Lets pray for resolve of conflicts in families today!

Don’t work in vain!

 

 

As I was reflecting upon Psalm 127:1 (NIV), I see how the Lord teaches the Psalmist to wait until He has given guidance for one to move ahead in conscious dependence on Him. By this, the Lord is reminding me that my security ultimately lies in Him. Indeed the Lord spoke to me saying, “Let my presence fall upon your life”. This encourages me to pray for His divine presence to be among the things, work and social life that I am doing in service to the Lord. I am drawn to the fact how the disciples were commanded by the Lord to preach the gospel to the whole creation (Mark 16:15, NIV).

As an individual Church, I am thankful that Christ has set a purpose in me to preach the gospel to pre-believers and enfold them (abled-bodied & PwDs) into the Church. As how Christ did the Father’s business in the redemptive work of mankind, so I have a part of this redemptive work of evangelizing and sharing the gospel with pre-believers today (John 5:17, NIV);

Let’s build a House of God as we labour the work for Him so that everything goes back to the Lord.

Foot-wash

As I did my today’s meditation, I pondered upon how the disciple Simon Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, do you wash my feet? .... You shall never...
