James 3:9-10 (New International Version)9With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. 10Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be.
I guess that's where it is so obvious, guard my mouth, the words I say, will they edify God? Sometimes I get so pissed that things just come out of my mouth. Hahaha. But other times, I use this mouth to sing songs to Jesus, and pray for people. I don't know how I do it. Was on the bus yesterday. Suddenly thought of this thing. Y'know the rescue hammer thing? (Those which you smash on the window of the bus in case of anything, so you can escape). Yeah. I was looking at it, and suddenly this thought came. "Imagine something tragic happened, and I was escaping, crawling out with my bag (inside my laptop and all). And what if a man wanted to get out, but then my bag (cuz of it's weight), was like about a person like that, and the only way he could go out was that if I sacrificed and left my bag behind instead." After which, thoughts really came. Lol. I am not kidding. Like, Okay imagine the man got out, I would expect him to be grateful, hello, I left my precious thing behind just for him. And imagine, instead of being grateful, he goes and screws up his life. Gets into prison, and all. Would I regret "saving" him? Would I wish that he'd be dead, instead of my laptop? Things I learnt: 1) We are like that man in my thoughts. God sent Jesus to die for us, how many times have we actually screwed up our lives and worst, run away from God? All we need to do is just come back to Him. 2) Before deciding to sacrifice my laptop and bag, I bargained with this thoughts, and told myself, "how about just leave my bag and my laptop I bring? I can even sacrifice my charger" I guess many times God ask to sacrifice something precious, and we all bargain... Like okay, I'll sacrifice this, but not this. But I guess He wants all. Dno.HMMMMM... :) |
