I think it's time I breath some life into this blog,it's pretty dead.Thus,I'm sure Joys won't mind me doing one or two updates now.Firstly,I will begin by posting up a pretty powerful prayer Pastor Rick Warren made in a service during a Hillsong conference.Here it goes.......
Today,I'm stepping across the line.I'm tired of waffling and I'm finished of wavering.I've made my choice.The verdict is in and my decision is irrevocable.I'm going God's way.There's no turning back now.I will live the rest of my life serving God's purpose with God's people on God's planet for God's glory.I will use my life to celebrate His presence,cultivate His character,participate in His family,demonstrate His love and communicate His word.
Since my past has been forgiven and I have a purpose for living and a home awaiting for me in heaven,thus I refuse to waste any more time or energy on shallow living,petty thinking,trivial talking,thoughtless doing,useless regretting,hurtful resenting or faithless worrying.Instead,I will magnify God,grow to maturity,serve in ministry and fulfill my mission in the membership of His family.
Because this life is preparation for the next,I will value worship over wealth,we over me,character over comfort,service over status and people over possessions,position and pleasures.I know what matters most and I'll give it all I've got.I'll do my best I can with what I have for Jesus Christ today.
I won't be captivated by culture,manipulated by critics,motivated by praise,frustrated by problems,debilitated by temptation or intimidated by the devil.I'll keep running my race with my eyes on the goal and not the sidelines or those running beside me.
When times get tough and I get tired,I won't back up,back off,back down,back out or backslide.I'll just keep moving forward by God's grace.I'm spirit-led,purpose-driven and mission-focused,so I cannot be bought,I will not be compromised and I shall not quit until I finish the race.
I'm a trophy of God's amazing grace,so I will be gracious to everyone,grateful for everyday and generous with everything that God entrusts to me.
To my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ,I say,"However,Whenever,Wherever and Whatever You ask me to do,my answer in advance is yes!"Wherever You lead and whatever the cost,I'm ready.Anytime,Anywhere,Anyway.Whatever it takes Lord!Whatever it takes! I want to be used by You in such a way that on that final day I'd hear you say,"Well done,thou good and faithful one.Come on in and let the eternal party begin!"Amen.
