REFLECTION LETTER October 2006
Month of October- Used to study for exams and wait anxiously for my results. And I want to really thank God for helping me to get to the next year. “You reap what you sow”J
I have noticed a change in myself which is really not that good. It’s like it’s a start of a new life when the holidays come, I know…… It sounds a little off but for the past week I totally wasted it all away. I could not remember what I did last week and yeah, and so wasted it.
Galatians 5:13
For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
Jude 1:4
For certain persons have crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
Its talking about God’s grace, Its already by God’s grace that I am still alive and well, but I still chose to waste it all away.
Remedy – Always be aware of God in my life
e.g Set goals for the week and write it down in a journal
I remember what I said on the last reflection letter which had to do with the emoness. Well I talked about it with Peng and God spoke to me through him. I was like I didn’t see any I would say good in carrying on living because of the state of man, how sinful we are. But I knew my purpose and it was simply to Trust and Obey God, but still isn’t it so selfish of me to even have this thought, not to share the Gospel to my friends and my loved ones, and just wanting to call it quits after what Christ had done on the cross for me? I thought this feeling would keep coming back no matter what but one night I prayed that God would help me get this “thing” of my back. And amazingly the next morning I felt totally better, I don’t really know how to say this but yeah. And the feeling has not come back ever since. PRAISE GOD!
Prayer – That I will use every opportunity that God has gives me to Share about Him.
The next has to do with salvation. For the past few years I have been a judgmental, like lets say this guy has done a lot of bad stuff, his attitude totally off, I would deem him as “unworthy of salvation” BUT who am I to decide! All of us were still sinners
Galatians 5:19-21
19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, (strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, 21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But God still chose to save us, so who am I to decide, who am I to judge.
Galatians 5:1
Walk by the Spirit
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
