So we go to sleep having no guarantee of tomorrow. We set our alarm clocks to wake us up each time. This is what faith is called. Having no perfect knowledge of all things but hoping and knowing that these things will happen.
So today I was lucky enough to wake up late for church and still have the burning desire to go. I took my shower in no rush may I add and got dressed, blow dried my hair and styled it. I guess you can see that I took my time. I left my room at the same time as the service was to start. I journeyed on and I got into a taxi. To my surprise it was playing gospel music.
In between the conversation I was having with the driver, I was lucky enough to get the message in the song. The song went something like this; " God will deliver unto us according to our faith". It got me to think How much is God bound unto me? How can I expect great miracles from Him yet I do not do my part?
I was hurt and I knew that today I did not need to go to church and listen to the speakers but the Lord had delivered His message unto me. I was shocked at my selfishness and shamed to even say I am a daughter of God. He only asks of us (me) to keep His commandments and He will bless us. We go to sleep having asked from Him great things yet to keep His commandment to LOVE ONE ANOTHER, we fail to do that.
Today my lesson did not come in a blue box with a red ribbon, it came with a man who drove a white quantum. God's message is waiting around you wrapped in all different shades. Be willingly to know and ye shall know.
wow... very insightful Tesh... and true as well. if we keep our senses sharp we'll notice that God talks to us in strange places :)
