The Lord place upon my heart to read the book of Proverbs during this season!!! And Oh my goodness...only then did I realised that I had never read the whole proverbs before....usually it's in bits and pieces...so anyway..here it is...turn your bible to Proverbs 3:1-4 *haha...like in cell group meeting right*
Emmanuel my dear son often reminds me of favour that he finds. The chinese term meaning "ren yuan"! And I always wonder...hmmm...why is it that when others see him, most of the time...even strangers.....straight away...they take a liking to him....! As I seek deeper and read the word of the Lord...I finally understood.
A baby is very simple minded....and a baby is very "real"! So when a baby is happy, he will laugh, giggle and smile.....but when a baby is upset, the baby will cry & scream....a baby doesn't know how to "hide" things......a baby is very true to his / her feelings! And I was so reminded that often times........I complain and say God...why this why that....why why why.........and the bible says "let love and faithfulness never leave you" but how often times, that when I complain, I don't show love and am not "faithful" to that person that I complain about....and more importantly...I am not faithful to God....cos He knows everything....so everything that happens, He is in control! And when I complain......I'm actually in a way lamenting and blaming the Lord for what happens...
What truth this is........that we don't just have to have FLAVOUR along life's journey...but FAVOUR along life's journey.
Today, do you feel that things are not going your way and there's no favour with God & man? Then today, come before the Lord, repent and remember to keep all His commandmants upon your heart! Tie it around your neck and never let it leave you!
