I woke up this morning with the story of David and Bethseeba. I do not know what that means, but immediately I understand that a idle mind is dangerous. What's your plan for me Lord?
I am concern about the streams of income and about II. How will the training go?
How long do I have to wonder? I know there are things God wants to deal with me that are not complete, before I can enter the land. Am I prepared for these ...
John 12
Judas commented that Mary should not be using the expensive nard and annointed the feet of Jesus.
Mary on the other hand served Jesus and decided that it was all worth to use the expensive nard on Jesus' feet.
How do we deal with money? Judas see that is is wasteful while Mary found it all worth.
Judas said that these could be use for the poor, while Mary use it for her Lord.
Jesus commented that the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.
A spirit of covet and envy is in me when I see that giving is wasteful. Instead like the rest of the world, we should accumulate assest for ourself. People are earning more and doing well than me, why am I so left out?
Ugly feeling and bad sentiment. I am concern about balancing accounts..
How will I react to the blessings on the day the Lord give them to me? There is something to know and learn here.
Jesus have not blessed or give Mary the nard, but Mary use them for the Lord whom she loved.
Judas was in charge of the money bag and yet he used to help himself to what was put it.
What was not bless but given. What was not receive but taken.
I should not be expecting a blessings before I give and even before I receive I should learn to give.
The worse is that I felt that I am so much worse off and I should take and receive more so that I can be better off.
What a person am I?...
I pray that the Lord will provide me with enough that I may not steal. I pray that I will learn to receive blessings and acknowledge it is the Lord who has bless. I have seen that by my own strength, I have failed, failed badly. There is no point accumulating assest for my own ego, so that the day of great rewards, I will not let pride take over me, but know clearly it is the work of my God. I shall eat You eat the fruit of vineyards and olive orchards that you did not plant. I will have the blessings but it is not for my glory. I pray that I will learn when to bless the kingdom of God and when to bless the poor. I pray that I will give to the poor because it is good and the world may know that I have a good heart. All purpose is for God's glory. Amen.
