Scripture:
Ecclesiastes 8: 12 & 13 "Although a sinner does evil a hundred times and may lengthen his life, still I know that it will be well for those who fear God, who fear Him openly. But it will not be well for the evil man and he will not lengthen his days like a shadow, because he does not fear God. "
Observation:
Now do I really fear what God is capable. King Solomon speak of the fearing God. He recognizes that we are all sinner in God's eye. We sin without knowing. Because we are sinner we live our lives fill with sin, no matter how hard we try to discipline our self. But as long as we live our lives, if we have the correct purpose in our heart, not for the sake of self indulgence or self greed, but to live for God and to make my relationship right with out, we are forgiven by the sacrifice of God's one and only son. But it is not just words that make it true, but what is in our heart. If our heart is unsure and we indulges to benefit own self and yet say we believe, then this is not really fearing God. For those who have the heart for God, our lives will be joyous and spirited with his love though we are sinner. But for those who is lost and no matter how much you try to amend the sins, if you heart is to indulge in your self and evil, God will not indulge in his joy with you. Rather the lives of those will be harsh and will never be fulfilling at the end.
Application:
How amazing is our God, even with my tribulation with my family and my parents. These are the testimony of God, the miracle and how fair he is. My aunts and uncles and cousin may hurt my parent and my family with their words but they are probably never fulfil with what they have. As for us, though we are hurt we indulging in the glory of God, and the blessing we have. I need to extend my peace in my heart, and refuge in God, for healing and forgiveness. I may not deliver evil onto those lost souls. Rather find love and comfort in God. I need to relinquish everything onto God. I have no self control over anything, the future is unknown except God. Learn to have faith that God will deliver and provide. Try not to control and live a life without God, but live a life with God and I will find so much comfort and peace.
Prayer:
Father I am a sinner, sinner with so many flaws. Father God, let my self controlling and indulgence be refocus onto you. May my life be redirected to priority you. Father you have sacrifice your one and only son to wash my transgression. Father God, thank you for the cross and abundance of gift that cannot be measured. Father our life (my family) life is blessed with your glory and your love. Through the struggles and pain, we have you who love us and provide for us regardless. Father God, continue to heal our families heart and mold our heart to be better servant, to love those who are lost and who have hurt us. Father God, help us to find indulgence in you, not our day to day goals. Let our lives to be serve and glorify your name. In your name I pray amen.
