you know, a lot of people say they believe in God and yet their life doesn't reflect it. How sad huh? You know what's more devastating than that??? It's people who say they love Jesus Christ and yet, they are not willing to get out of their comfort zone to reach out to the people around them. Jesus said you love me when you love my people. He ask Peter three times if Peter love Him. Each time, Peter said I do. And Jesus replied the first with "feed my lambs", the second "tend my sheeps", and the third with "feed my sheep".
I know the Lord has been cultivating my heart, mind and soul to reflect more and more like him. Ever since I asked God to help me see with His eyes and love with His love two years ago, i wasn't prepare for the full intensity of the answer to that prayer. Everyday the Lord reveals the full propensity of sin and the destruction it brings layer by layer. It came to the point that i was literally breaking inside. I began to perceive sin the way He viewed it. i hate sin. But what really broke me was when He began to show me how His people allowed things in their life to crowd Him out. when i say break, i really mean break. i cried. tears that i was not used to shedding came rolling down at the thought of how we give the adversary the upper hand by not making Jesus first in our lives.
(sigh) this is serious but it is 1:38am and i have to wake up 6:00am in the morning. i will continue some more. goodnight for now
