Acts 5:40-41
Today's verse really got me thinking and I just wanted to share it with all of you. This verse is about what are we willing to give up, suffer, or come out of our shell for. What am I really passionate about? Am I really passionate about God and doing everything to serve Him? Would I endure pain and discomfort for Him? In my mind and heart I know that I would but this verse really got me thinking. Of course I can say that I will because I'm not put under any pressure or anything. But when the time comes, will I be as strong and I think I am? These questions that I ask myself really help me strive to be better for Him and to know that I will definitely endure anything for Him. The only thing I want is for Him to see me and say, "Well done." So this verse helps me to push harder to be more passionate for Him and be more like Him everyday. Well, that's it. (:

I agree with you all the way, Bekah! What breaks my heart even more is when I notice in myself that I am willing to suffer pain and discomfort for the sake of so many other things. I'm willing to go to such lengths to make sure that I look good, smart, "nice", but I won't go out of my way to show adoration for the God of the universe? Ouch.
ReplyDeleteBut be encouraged that not only is that "Well done," coming - you already have it! He is already pleased with the offering of your life, and He'll honor that.
