29 Feb 2016; Eph 1:1-10

29 Feb 2016; Eph 1:1-10

What a wretched man. The last time I blog was a month ago. I started well. Even in my work I started well. My contracts and projects are doing well.

Paul an apostle by the will of God.
In everything that I have or am, it is because of my work, or by my appointment? Am I in the will of God? Or am I trying to crave a piece of work out to prove that I have the skills, means and abilities, to proof something?

Blessed be the Lord and God who has blessed us in every spiritual blessings.
In all I have, it is God who bless. This family, it is the Lord who bless, my work, my children. What else am I not satisfy? Indeed, the intention is for the values of Christ, Godly values to be pass down to the next generation, it is for my unsaved relatives to know God. Even as I interact with my students, let the love of God and the purposes of God be made known in their lives. Use me a vessel., that with the spiritual blessings, use me.

I am reminded that I am the first generation Christian. Just like the way I ask Aunt Yong did she share the gospel and pray with my mom to receive Christ, I am now the vessel, that someday I am accountable for that question. Wow, according to the purpose of His will, that I know Christ first.

In him, we have the redemption - the hope and that made purposes in life meaningful.  This He lavished on us. What is my response?

The power that was poured on us so that we are blessed for and to do all that He purposes. What power in me and what task that I cannot do? In all wisdom and insight...

So that the grace be made know through me to others - as plan so that all things be united in Him.

What am I doing then? That I failed to see that grace and power lavished with all spiritual blessings and yet squandered away time (effort, priority), talents (skills and knowledge) and treasures (material gains, wealth) to run after the tangible things and with a blinded eyes trying to do catch up what the world has achieved!

Pray, Praise, Peruse, Preach - Do the 4Ps in His kingdom.
