Tired Already?


“Tired for Doing Good”

“Don’t get tired of doing what is good. Don’t get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time.”
-Galatians 6:9

Sometimes, doing what is good and pleasing to God may seem tiring, even boring and less adventurous. Or maybe you are doing it for so long that it seems so ordinary. No matter what kind of person you are, there will come a time that temptations will come. You will experience great curiosity on things you weren’t doing before. May it be for better or for worse. Sometimes, we feel that we are doing everything good yet no one even bother to thank and appreciate us. Discouraging isn’t it?

During these times, let us go back to the beginning of everything, the cross. On that Cross, where so much love was given just for us. For us, sinners, wrong doers, impure, hard headed, boastful. Jesus never got tired on carrying that cross, because it’s the will of the Father for His people, because it was needed to be done for us to be saved. Love so great and so much was given to us but we still have the guts to get tired of pleasing our Lord. Shame on us!

Let us stay in love with the Lord who first loved us. Let us give the highest praises and devotion that rightly belongs to Him. Let us continue to serve Him and do His will in our lives which is doing what is good. Because that’s the only way we can bring back the love He has for us. If it seemed unappreciated, don’t look at the people around you. It doesn’t matter. Because the Lord sees everything you are doing and someday, at the appropriate time, you will reap everything you sow, a harvest of eternal blessings. God bless you more!

Loving your Enemy

Matthew 5:43-44 43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. The first step to love our enemies is to pray for them. Jesus said, ‘pray for those who persecute you.’ If we pray for our enemies, something mysterious happens inside us. It is like pouring icy cold water to your sizzling emotions. When we continue to pray goodness for our enemies everyday, one day you’ll realize that your anger has gone. And once we have removed our anger, we can start doing good things for them such as: Forgiving and forgetting about their sins against us. Forgiveness is an act of the will of the heart. And Christian forgiveness means that when we forgive, we also forget. Love keeps no record of wrongs. Reaching out to them. We do not just forgive our enemies, we also take steps to be closer to them. Real forgiveness demands restoration of relationship. Just like how Go...

Worry

Worry makes us do things against God's plan. We try to disobey the Lord because we think that He's not doing anything. When we worry, it lessens our TRUST in God and we question His ability to keep what He says. And then we try to solve our problems on our own. We are leaning on our own understanding. We do what we think will be the solution. And the result will always be worse. Do not worry and trust God. Do not feel insecure because even though sometimes we don't see and feel God's actions in our problems, knowing that the Lord is with us is already the highest security we can have. He'll do something, just obey, wait and see.

Boredom

It's something you do when you're bored. Plus I believe, a girl can never be completely beautiful when she doesn't know how to be ugly. Hurray!
