baby steps
It all makes sense to me now. Only, I found myself so ignorant at his perfection. God’s plan for man is not something we could predict; I mean we try to predict it by putting him into our own plans but it always fails.
Today, I went over Colossians during my QTs and one thing really struck me hard, again: we are solely created for the praise and glory of God. I know I’ve been through this message tons and tons of times throughout my recollections as a Christian, but it never really struck me harder than today. Honestly, I confess, there are times where I really do want to get recognition for things that I do. I like that feeling of being appreciated. But the problem with this is that, I put in the effort of doing something recognizable for the sake of being praised. I did it for myself, not for God. As I was reading this passage, I couldn’t help but confess to God about how ignorant I am in my life. He deserves everything! I felt so stupid and pitiful. I mean seriously, Jesus was spat on, mocked, beat, and murdered for me. He hung on that cross for each and everyone of us. Do you have any idea how it feels like to hang on a cross with your feet and hands NAILED? He hung there for me, you, and everybody whether they liked it or not. I couldn’t help but repent! God you deserve so much better praise and honor in my life. Forgive me for being so selfish and ignorant. I want to live my life wholly and holy for you. May I be a humble servant Lord.
Honestly, God has been showing me back to basics in my relationship with him. I know its just baby steps but, create in me a new heart Lord, I desire it.
