wow... it's really the tearing down process, tearing down the strongholds, the me me me me me, so that You can come in, so that we can become more like You.
This is not about me, but all about You.
Ended last last week feeling demoralised, discouraged. Started last week feeling traces of it... God knew it all. Came into service on friday, and so timely the BOTT sermon we watched was related to fighting against discouragement. Last week, somehow or another, I was directed to this verse.
Hebrews 12:1-3 "[1]Therefore we also, since we are surrounded y so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,[2] looking nto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set efore Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.[3] For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls."
There is a God lor! Don't tell me it's coincedence. I don't believe in it. If He had died for us, gave us the VICTORY from even seemingly 'small' things like discouragement, then how can I even allow myself to dwell in that kind of state, when I already got the VICTORY?
Definitely NOT going to stay in that and allow it to overpower me and wait for people to come and comfort me and move only when I feel encouraged.
David encouraged himself in the LORD. If there's no one to encourage me, I'm going to encourage myself!
The 6 of us finally had a chance whereby all 6 are present so that we can share/talk/update one another.
Lily said this: She considers herself right now, being in a courtship with God, and if she places thoughts on other guys, it would be considered unfaithfulness unto Him.
This really made alot of sense. Plus we just came out of Sis Barb's sermon about Choosing God's Best. =)
hoooohh... THIS IS SO EXCITING! THIS IS SO EXCITING!!! =DDD God is doing something, and we have a choice to be a part of it or not! =)
finalllyyyy... I want to sayyy...
ohhh you slothfulness. YOU ARE SO COMING DOWN.
