I’m so excited about Sunday- because of the weather. Haha. It was a terrible 42degrees yesterday, today might hit 37, but this Sunday, it’s gonna be 15 =)
And believe me, such temperature change is totally possible in Melbourne. I mean, it’s gonna be 24 tomorrow and I can’t wait already.
So anyway, I’m blogging now because I had some random thoughts this morning.
I think I tend to be very critical about myself. Like am I doing the right thing, maybe there’s a better way of doing this. Or after I do something, I would be like OMG, should I have done it. Right meaning, what the world thinks. And I don’t mean the world of unbelievers, even the world of Christians. If you know what I mean.
I mean, it’s good to evaluate and reflect to try and make the best decision. But sometimes, in life, it’s not about making the best decision or the right decision.
Truth is, it’s okay to make mistakes. Just not intentionally.
So I guess I fall under the category of homo sapiens who is overly critical of herself. Sometimes, at least.
Funny thing is, I’m not like that about others. When the people around tell me that they are in some situation that I might coincidentally be in or have been before or just whatever, I am totally cool with it and I don’t judge and get all critical with that person.
I just say what I want to say. And most of the time, they are the “right” things. Right meaning, what God would have said.
It’s as though my heart operates with people and my mind operates with me. If you know what I mean. Kinda weird hey.
And this heart of mine, has been refined by God. In fact, it is refined every single day to love more, to be more compassionate, to correct people with love and that there is no condemnation in Christ.
But this mind of mine is so stuck in human reasoning and logic, stuck in rules and regulations that as Christians, we should be free from! As ps Sam mentioned, that can stop you from operating in the supernatural.
So if only my heart operates with myself as well. Or rather, if my mind will be transformed not by the patterns of the world but by the renewing of the spirit (I hope I got this verse right. Haha. Romans 12:1). Maybe then God’s love will flow into me, not out to others only but to myself. And with that, experience His love in a greater measure.
Truth is, His love is not only for people, it’s for me as well.
And if only we can grasp that concept well enough.
My motto in life (as most people know it) is Love God, Love Life, Love People. Life, meaning our own life.
If we can love God and love ourselves, loving people will be easy. God is perfect and we are the most imperfect people we’ll ever know (if we can look past our ego and pride). Loving people is like in between God and ourselves. Okay, I’m sure you know what I mean, if you can sustain this entry thus far. Haha.
That’s all folks!!
I’m just got up not long ago with this revelation and I thought it was so important that I had to share it with all of you.
PLEASE COMMENT your thoughts and whatnot!
Toodles world!
