如果小小的事情不能感动我们,那大大的事情我们只会把它当成理所当然。
Truly Lord, You are a God of details.
Every aspect of our lives is very important to You because we stray in the smallest things, we take for granted the great efforts of others, we take least notice of the least among us.
We see the grand things, we desire spectacular sights, we covet the seemingly greener pasture of others.
We really have the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life.
Being in Christ these 9 years, I try to look deep into myself.
I observe others with my limited knowledge of You and Your Word.
None of us is not found guilty of harbouring these self-centered thoughts and acting on them.
Praise be to You Lord that when we come to You in the face of our shortcomings and weaknesses, You cut away these undesirable parts of us, smooth the rough edges, cleanse us of our filth to enable us to go about each day.
You seem like a nagging Father for we are Your children with wandering hearts.
All You want is for us to follow You in all holiness and righteousness.
Those You love, You chasten.
We, Your sons and daughters, will and should appreciate Your every rebuke, chastening and discipline.
Our Abba Father, all You have in store for us is good.
Just that at our level, we cannot see Your goodness until we reach out and asked to be lifted up to Your level to see what You are seeing, to feel what You are feeling, to do what You are doing!
You want to give us ALL of You.
And so let us be faithful in all that You have given us.
Nothing, no one, is small or unimportant in the eyes of our Lord.
He is a God of details.
