Everything in life belongs to God
Tuesday, August 22nd, 2006Opps… yes, i am back to blog after a tiny break of absence. People are wondering why don’t i log on to msn anymore.. ehm… oh well… i have my reasons.. haha..
Ps 24:1 "The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it"
I was reading this verse before going to bed and it dawn upon me something. Everything i have in my life now belongs to God. The bed i am sleeping on, the pjs i am wearing and even the Bible i am reading belongs to not me, but the Lord. I am just a steward of His possessions. In natural circumstances, you won’t ask someone who cannot be trusted or irresponsible in nature to take care of ur things. However, God entrust us with His stuff because He have faith and trust in us even though we are imperfect.
In my lifetime, i borrowed alot of stuff from my parents, tons of it!! Never once did they reject me everytime i wanted to borrow something from them even though the thought of me wrecking their things is 50-50. When i first got my license, i drove my mum’s car alot and though i must admit, the scratches on her car are mostly because of my wrecklessness but never did she once screamed at me or ban me from driving her car. I think that this is love. It is not abt the possession but the character of the person being entrusted for responsibility being moulded. Just like God!! He entrusts us and believe that even when we fail, He will still trust us to take care of His possessions.
As such, we all have the responsibility to be responsible. Learn how to take good care of our stuff, our talents, even our own bodies. Remember, it is not yours but the Lord’s. Thats why the Bible says that we must prepare ourselves and come to Him as glorious beings when He comes back one day. I don’t want to be sloppy when He shows up. Time to clean up that room of yours matey!
