God prompted me two verses today, in prayermeet and caregroup respectively.
PM: Isaiah 40: 29-31
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Sometimes we do God's work, do until don't know who are we doing for.
Our spiritual life become a tiring one for us, if you think that people do not understand,
think again, God does. He knew that youths grow tired, but God said: those who hope in the LORD, their strength will be renew.
if we put our hope in the Lord, He will bring us through the problems.
and the rewards are ENORMOUS :D
tired? turn to God and He will surely renew your strength :D
CG: Matthew 13: 3-8, 18-23
[v3-v8]
Then he told them many things in parables, saying: "A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.
[v18-v23]
"Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path. The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away. The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful. But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."
firstly, sorry if these verse seems too wordy,
ok, let me start, we are singing a pure heart in caregroup.
and in my mind, i reminded about The Parable of the Sower.
after i read the verse, Holy Spirit prompted me strongly,
He says: Some of their hearts are not like the good soil,
because if they want a pure heart,
a heart that follows hard,
a heart that beats compassion,
a heart that pleases God,
their heart must be like the good soil, with good nutrients, [i.e the WOG]
no point doing all God's work without realising that our heart is not what God wants.
cos we will soon do things because our leader ask us to do etc.
if you want a pure heart, a heart with good soil,
pray to God and read His word.
