true worshipper

today pastor ronald preach to us quite alot on things which can be referred to our life examples. as a christian, we gave God the legitimacy to our lives; every single part of it. what is the most humble position to express God's sovereignty? its actually simply lying down flat on the ground. phui see told me this once before, that pastor david lim would also worship God in such position. i thnk its not only humbling yourself to God but also showing to the world that He is sovereign and that He is everything that we ever needed.

what exactly is Jesus's purpose of coming down to this earth? His purpose is not exactly to die on the cross to save us but to fulfill God's purpose. His sole and most singnificant motivation is God and nothing else. and the purpose of us worshipping God is because of God's mercy and not because sometimes we can feel His presence or when God answers our prayers. we worship because of Jesus. in the past, i was quite concern about whether i can feel God or not. but today i feel that i am wrong, cause what if one day God were to take everything from me including His presence? then does that mean that i shouldn't worship the Lord? wrong attitude!!! SO OUR MOTIVATION SHOULD BE ON GOD TOO!!! also, pst ronald preach to us about what we look, see and watch. we as christians must be aware and careful of the things that we are looking, for the day that we were born-again, is the day which we have given every part of our body to God, our eyes. and i think i need to reflect about my life regarding this.. cause sometimes i will tend to be drawn to horror movies even though i am scared of them. so i should stop doing that!!! also the way we dress shouldn't be so scandily, as if the ultimate motive is to attract attention from the guys. hmmm sadly to say, some people around me, christians, aren't really appropriately dressed. they wore really short mini-skirts. our body belongs to God. it is an instrument of righteousness and its the temple of God too so we should really protect it!
YOUR EXTERNAL ACTIONS AND APPEARANCE REFLECT WHETHER YOU TRULY LOVE JESUS IN YOUR HEART!

when God tells us to do something, we shouldn't be arguing with Him or complaining that we NEED or HAVE to do it. but because we love Jesus, it is something which we would WANT to do! and because of this word and the incident about kelly which has been bothering me encourages me to go to the altar and seek God's forgiveness. i felt really happy and overjoyed after that! wah it really takes me quite alot of courage to go up there! haha it kinda brings me back to the past in bethel days, when going up to the altar seems like the trend. wah i really want to revisit there back again!!! i miss bethel and the people there!! huifang, xinyi, amanda and aretha! =) oh ya.. then the moment abi sat beside me, i just keep crying for no reason i guess.. haha.. and thks to phui and rachael who prayed for me! they were awesome! =) thk God for this two angels in my region; co-cm and rl.. =)

hmmm elo told me today that ya just have this calling about evangelism, but i dont think that is my calling so i really struggled with it when it comes to even start sharing. but because of this i am willing to go it all out for God again! a TRUE WORSHIPPER will do all that! =)

YOUR FEELING VS WILL OF GOD
if you obey God, sometimes you might feel pain.
but if you don't, the consequences you face might feel even more painful.
