A Reason to Do Right

                 Job...fears God and shuns evils. - Job 1:8

We do many things because of fear. We pay rent so we won't be evicted. We carry insurance so an illness or accident doesn't wipe us out financially. We drive within the speed limit so we don't get a ticket. And we try not to sin so God won't punish us - at least according to a couple of my friends. "If I ever thought about cheating on my husband," one said,"God would strike me dead!" Another said, "If I ever stole from company, God would take away everything I own.

Is that what the Bible teaches? Is fear of God a valid motive not to sin? Well, It was for Job. Twice our Scripture reading tells us that he feared God and shunned evil (1:1,8). So we can safely assume that there is a connection between fear and right behavior. But we must understand an important distinction. This "fear" is not a superstitious terror of a fickle god who zaps us the instant we do wrong. Rather, it is deep respect and reverence of God's holy character and awesome power. It is a healthy fear, not only of sin's painful consequences but of sinning against the One who loves us and on whom we depends for our very life. And if we love Him, we will not want to offend Him.

Yes, the fear of God is a good reason to do right.
        
                   I love you, Lord, and want to do
                   What's pleasing in Your sight;
                   Help me to fear sin's consequence,
                   So I will do what's right.

                       THE MEASURE OF OUR LOVE FOR GOD IS OUR OBEDIENCE.

 

Missing you........

Today, with your blue lined shirt, you still looks as handsome as I know you. Did I told you how much I have been missing your touch, your smell,your kiss?? No..I didn't because I can't....

Thanks for Thorns

          


To give thanks in every situation is sometimes very difficult. When our bodies are wrecked by pain, or we have just learned that we have a physical problem for which there is no cure, or we have lost our job, or a cherished relationship has been broken, we don't feel grateful. But we can learn to thank God because He gives us strength when we feel weak.

That's why the apostle Paul could say, "I take pleasure in infirmities....in distresses, for Christ's sake." And as believers, we can be grateful that through such experiences God is accomplishing what is best for us. Even though suffering He is working for our good (Rom. 8:28)

Scottish author and preacher George Matheson, who was blind, expressed this prayer : I have thanked Thee a thousand times for my roses, but never once for my "Thorn"...Teach me the glory of my cross; teach me the value of my 'thorn'. Show me that I have climbed to Thee by the path of pain. Show we that my tears have made my rainbows."

As we surrender ourselves to the Lord and remember that He is working in everything to accomplish our ultimate good, we can thank Him even when we are pierced by 'thorns'.

                         We give thanks for everything
                         And say, "Your will be done"
                         For God's at work in everything
                          To make us like His son.

WE LESSEN THE PAIN OF SUFFERING WHEN WE LEARN THE LESSON OF GRATITUDE.

Yes...I've been foolish....I've been childish....I've been naive.....But can I pray for another chance to make things right?

Pretending ....

Is so afraid to be alone,
The quietness of the nite is killing me,
Things that u left behind make me think of u
Places that we have been is leaving me the memories that I can't forgo
I try to forget all these pieces that u left for me, but it only stay with me even closer

I know I have to learn to let go because it just can't be continue
I know I shouldn't keep thinking about you because you are not worthed
Even I keep telling myself "never mind, let it go"
But when I see you again, I just can't pretend nothing ever happen...
