Make My Life A Sacrifice
My family's here on holiday. So I went with them out to the Mornington Peninsular on Wednesday. Tuesday we went to Mt. Dandenong. Tomorrow they are going shopping I think. Hmm.. dunno what to do with them for the rest of the 4 days they will be here. Let them just have a bit of R&R lah. I think that's the best. Melbourne is only this big. Plus they are driving my Noah. The poor guy! They are all too used to driving auto cars that driving a manual car is a feat to them already. Hmmm, probably go to the city on Saturday. To VicMart and all. Sunday can go St. Kilda. Then Monday, arghhh...I really dunno. Maybe to Healesville or something like that.
Got my results today. I passed. Thought I would get a better grade. Need to see my actual breakdown of marks.
Umm.. what else.. food for thought lah k...
Sometimes we need to be unpopular if we want to do things right for God.
It means being the tall poppy in the garden, it may mean sticking out like a sore thumb.
The ways of God are not the ways of the world.
This is what the LORD Almighty says:
"Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you;
they fill you with false hopes.
They speak visions from their own minds,
not from the mouth of the LORD .
They keep saying to those who despise me,
'The LORD says: You will have peace.'
And to all who follow the stubbornness of their hearts
they say, 'No harm will come to you.'
But which of them has stood in the council of the LORD
to see or to hear his word?
Who has listened and heard his word?
See, the storm of the LORD
will burst out in wrath,
a whirlwind swirling down
on the heads of the wicked.
The anger of the LORD will not turn back
until he fully accomplishes
the purposes of his heart.
In days to come
you will understand it clearly.
I did not send these prophets,
yet they have run with their message;
I did not speak to them,
yet they have prophesied.
But if they had stood in my council,
they would have proclaimed my words to my people
and would have turned them from their evil ways
and from their evil deeds.
"Am I only a God nearby,"
declares the LORD ,
"and not a God far away?
~ Jeremiah 23:16-23
It's not easy to follow God.. it really isn't
