Tribulations.
Everyone has their own life problems to deal with.
Hence we will do whatever it takes to make our life more secure.
It could be through gaining more wealth, dating around, own more cars, own more houses, the possibilities is endless.
We need security to feel safe. To feel that I can survive.
However I feel that I always fail to see that the greatest security that we can invest in is our relationship with God.
God is 100% committed to us.
Why can't we be 100% committed back to Him?
Whenever anything bad happened, the first time that get tossed out of the window is our time with God.
And I am guilty of doing that.
The world teaches us that life is a rat race and it is the survival of the fittest.
No one will look out for you.
You only look out for yourself. What is best for your own self interest.
However what is Jesus's two greatest commandment?
1. Love our God with all our heart, mind and soul; and
2. Love our neighbour as we love ourselves
You notice there is no reference to yourselves.
We are not called to be selfish. We are called to be selfless.
Therefore I am ready. I am ready to do whatever it takes to advance God's kingdom.
I need to be obedient to His words, to listen and wait upon Him and let Him lead while I humbly follow.
