REFLECTION LETTER June 2006Oh man, holidays are over!!!!
The major things that happen this month were LCS retreat, which was really fun. Frankly I was quite shocked when I saw the timetable because almost ¾ of the day was spent on sessions or sermons, because I thought it was going to be fun 24/7 and just a little bit of worship. So I went there with that mentality, but God being gracious thought me in Ezekiel 17:22-24 that true worship happens everyday, so it is not only in the retreat or Sunday that we come to become more “spiritual”, but it must be continuous.
I also learnt about significance and security in Luke 19:1-10 which is about this short man named Zaccheus, he was a tax collector who put his significance in his riches and his security in his status who then later dropped everything and placed his significance and security in following Christ.
I had a dream some nights ago that one important person in my life died (I won’t say who) so I was just really lost and didn’t know what to do next. So it’s really important to place your significance and security in God because I placed it in my friends and SnP which won’t stay long cause we are all limited. So be sure where you put your significance and security in, because if it’s gone, what is going to happen?
I also recently talked to one of my friends whose girlfriend broke up with him and he is now really lost, but he said something which really made me think. “He didn’t dare to face his girlfriend because he is now the total opposite of what she wants”. I thought about my relationship with God, in my current state would I dare face God? I don’t want to be what God doesn’t want me to be but I still can’t give up some things for Him, is it because I don’t treasure my relationship with Him? I hope not.
So my resolution for next month would be to place my significance in following God and my security in where He will take me. My greatest challenge yet is to really drop everything depend on Him e.g. I include God in most aspects of my life except when at home (which I must work on), which is the continuous of God’s presence in my life.
Ezekiel 17:24
All the trees of the field will know that i the Lord bring down the tall tree and make the low tree grow tall. I dry up the green tree and make the dry tree flourish.
Do I have the willingness to flourish? – allow God to work in my life (everything)
