i was with ian and chris last night and one of them suddenly popped a very random but interesting question. He said, "what if all three of us suddenly decided to stop serving in church today?"
made me think really long and hard about it (like three seconds. HEY!! IT'S LONG K!) and i realised something FANTASTIC.
you know what?
it's not gonna make a single difference(:
it was almost as if God said,"you think what. you very zai izzit. do you honestly think that I, God of the universe, need you, little joash, to run my church?" i don't know why, but it's almost funny and very relieving(:
within 6 months, probably no one is gonna miss us, because this is His church. not some lousy human organisation that relies on men. God's Church. and if for some reason we have to stop, it's not gonna make a difference because God's gonna make sure that everything still runs fine because he sure doesn't need us. it's comforting to know that! =)
but end of the day, it doesn't mean we can all quit now. we're still gonna serve his Church because we need to be obedient. and the bible also says that those who do not do the good he knows he ought to do, sins. so i'm gonna obey my God and keep serving faithfully. yet there's no stress cos i know that nothing truly relies on me, that ultimately it's God who's at work in people's lives! (: neat!
on another note, i was once again reminded that this world is always going fail me (us). that nothing and no one is truly reliable. and we are like little waves tossed around in the rough sea of life. no matter what people say, we're always going to be disappointed. there's only one Rock. and that rock is our God(:
He's always there, lovingly drawing us to himself. and that if we are only willing to trust Him, He will take us through our difficult circumstances and bring us out stronger and safe in His arms. (: how amazing!!
my God rocks. =)
