With regards to my previous post, i'm glad to say that things are alright for now. And through this eventful thing, God brought me back to what he wanted us to do in this year of Sabbath.
1. Remembrance and Reliance upon the Lord. - when things were getting out of hand, i just had to rely and remember that God is always with me.
2.Restoring and Rebuilding relationships.- my relationship with aloysius can only be restored in Christ.
3.Rest and Re-creation of the land. - i'm sure GOD will show this to me when i start my attachment in Feb. How do i find rest in the midst of my busy schedule and how do i re-create my students..
God is revealing everything and his plan for me for this year,at this point of time. When i first read of these 3 points, i couldnt find any connection with them. But God is revealing his plans for me, and i thank God for that . It's really important to start the year off by spending time with GOD.. *aloy.. we shall plan for a solitude soon..
i just feel so blessed suddenly. i just finished watching the online sermon for last week i know it's super late to do so.. heh but better late than never. it's difficult for me to attend service but i'm just glad that church has this online viewing that i'm able to listen to GOD speak to me through the sermon even w/o attending service. What pastor say is so apt of how i am feeling. He did not say this but i interpreted it this way. Everything is not important because "GOD is our sufficiency". this is also the theology of Sabbath. Pastor gave us 3 things to remember in this year of sabbath that is
1. Draw near to God
2. Get right with God
3. Stand up for God
Setting aside time for morning devotion has always been a struggle for me. but i thank God that i've kept to doing it but...... sometimes in a rush. coz morning i wake up at 730 then i've got till 810 to catch my bus. that's why i read through the word of GOD in a rush at times. My house aint a conducive place to do my morning devotion either. but i thank God each time for the chance to do so.. just by watching one sermon and i feel that God is really speaking to me. in so many areas of my life. Areas that i've yet to surrender to him. Areas that i still think that i can control and do it my way. i thank God for this sermon that i've woken up and from now onwards, i will set aside time to seek GOD because only he is sufficient.
