5:34 AM ♥
After the preaching by Daniel Chia, today is the first attempt of waking up at four plus in the morning to do my quiet time. I would say there it is not easy because this is unlike what I would do. But since Jesus could do it, why can’t I? I’m a morning person, so maybe it isn’t as tough as I would think. At least I didn’t doze off or whatever, instead I felt so refreshed. I’m refreshed by God’s words!
I am starting from basis all over again, learning about God words again from the book of Matthew. I gained more insights this time. I never wonder in the past what does it mean by ‘fishers of men’ in Matthew 4:19; but after some search through the net, I finally understand. Being the ‘fishers of men’ would no longer be catching the physical ‘fish’ by ‘souls’ instead. The ‘fishers of men’ would be ‘casting’ the nets of gospel, ‘drawing’ back the blessings of having eternal life. How interesting!
After attending service today, I could finally answer this question “Why did I come to church?” I came to church because I know that God can feel the hole in my heart which I have been trying to fill it by pursuing fame and affluence. I try to make lots of friends, building up my network with people, all because there is this emptiness within me. I thought that all this could fill the empty hole, but I’m wrong. It just makes me sink deeper into the mistake I made.
