Move it! Move it!

"Do not ask the Lord to guide your footsteps if you're not willing to move your feet."

Read this from Joon Lang’s email the other day and this phase really captured my attention.

We are at times very silly ler.. Dun you think so? We ask for this we ask for that but then we are not willing to suffer for it? Expect other ppl to suffer for the blessings we want for ourselves.

Eg: Lord bless me financially! (yet you expect to do everything the same and get an increase in you allowances.)
Lord give me good health! (yet you drink, smoke and take drugs.)

We request for God to move and yet we do all things the same? We sometimes even promise God that we would change (so bless us first) but never did so even after God answered our prayer. Why did God even put up with us? Alamak.. Thank God we are not God.. coz when we put ourselves in His shoe.. We dun want to forgive ourselves!.. Human beings are so… so… disappointing! Susah susah sakit kepala..

Some of us even pray for blessing and increase in Faith yet do not want to go through it ourselves. How can we experience God like that? Would you ask your mom to prepare orange juice and then ur brother drink it and you can say “oh the orange is sweet lar!”. Even if you can say it because your brother testify to it, how would you really know how sweet is sweet? What does it taste like? Is it different from the sweetness from an apple? How sweet is sweet??? YOU DUN KNOW..

So experience it yourself.

God is so gracious and full of love. We can’t imagine how much He put up with our stubbornness and spoiled attitude. He is so patient and full of mercy we can’t imagine! We always disappoint him and yet He still embraced us with arms open wide and with a heart full of love.

So don’t take things for granted! When we ask for God’s guidance, move it!
