Scripture:
1 Corinthians 15:10 "But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me didn't prove vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me."
Observation:
Everyday I wonder if I am living up to fullest of God's gift and what he has envisioned me to be? We buy life insurance to protect the future of our family, but what about the life of eternity with God? Where do we buy that kind of insurance? Once we buy that insurance, we forget about God and how he has transformed us. Being in this world in the flesh we are we forget that gift he has given us. He died on the cross to give us that life insurance of eternal life. Think about it, job, be able to wake up next day is all done through grace of God, isn't that gift he gave us to transform this world with fresh start? As day goes by as minding my own business, there is small voice behind my head saying "Don't forget about me" then I turn on my K-Love radio station and reflect on me and score myself of my walk with God being able to fulfil the contracts of the life insurance I signed up for. To measure if it is to the expectation to fulfil that eternal life, then I wonder have I transformed to meet that expectation? (I guess I have more question regarding this scripture then observation)
Application:
I need to gear my heart to listen to that voice behind my head. I cannot e timid about who I am and my beliefs, I was chosen for reason. God had died in a cross and raised in 3 days for reason. Need to celebrate daily of his resurrection, without the presence of God I am not who I am today, would not exist in this world. Need to take baby steps of daily to transform this world into his world.
Prayer:
Magnificent God mold me to be the person you want me to be. I do not want to forget a bit of the terms and condition of that life insurance I have signed with you for the eternal life in Heaven with you. Help me to cleanse my heart - I may find courage to love and forgive those who speak deceitful lies of my family. You are a healer and you know what we are thinking before we process the thought. Bring your love and grace and pour onto me and my family that we continue to seek your standards always and forever.
