but then again and again
So, what if i'm lame, and dumb and fat at the same time?
Such characteristics can never change my real worth in the Lord =). A pluses could never add a single hour to my life, rather, enjoying the Lord could add life in every hour with Him. I may agree that death is the great equalizer among all men, highly intellectual or not, drop-dead gorgeous or not, filthy rich or not... But the thing that sets me, and the rest of the believers, apart from the rest of the world is the way we spend life here before meeting the midwife (death) and how we will meet her as well... Nope, we aren't scared of death; for everything is planned out, when it's time for us to die, we die. And death is sweet, for after that, we are a step closer to meeting Him finally! =)
The only thing i'll never want to happen is astraying again... I don't want to experience the Lord's wrath, I'd rather not exist...
I don't care what the world says.. I don't care if they say i look fat or i look ugly or i am dumb, for they don't know the me that's really me. Jesus does. The world sees me as some physical entity and judges me just like the rest of the world. But i don't care, they don't know how to judge, neither do they have the right to determine my worth. They too are judged.
Why let the world tell you who you are, when they themselves don't trully know who they really are. They keep on pointing fingers and they never look at the mirror. They keep on setting standards but they themselves have no firm basis. They let themselves be deceived while deceiving others, and they tend to be short-sighted. They don't see what's beyond, all they see is what their eyes can see and what they want to see. What's with the world? Purely worthless emptiness...
I'm still stuck in the world, but i will not act like them as long as my consciousness could tell so. Yes, in the Spirit's guidance, I won't...
and yeah... the steamboat was good! i ate at my delight, and at the same time tasting how good the Lord is! there were two unbelievers there and it's interesting to witness how people who doesn't know Christ tend to question, and how would God prompt them to do so. It's innate, like it has always been there since the beginning and now it's all coming out. Moreover, it's wonderful how the saints answer them based on the Word, and as well as realizing how much answers an unbelieving heart would want to seek when it's all just there, waiting to be told. I know in time I could help out seeking people like them. In the Lord's time, I can help out the missing children of the Lord. =)
yes all these things will pass away, but the Word of God will never pass away...
it is also not the seen things that are essential but rather the unseen...
the seen seems to come from the unseen, for the unseen existed first before the seen came to life... ¶ 10:19 PM
