An encouraging day for God :)

Indeed for me, it's a good friday. :) Im so encouraged by God today. Today's CBSI was really really good. Thank You Father. Heeeee.So the question that got me thinking really really indept was-- Do you think Jesus is calling you to follow Him? It's not about you wanting to follow Jesus but Jesus wanting you to follow Him. What I answered was a no because I didn't felt and couldn't think of any incident knowing about Jesus calling for me to follow Him. Yes, in a few ways if I must be very careful or precised of the things I read or did. But I thought of directly.. & nope, nothing came to my mind & I just thought it was just because I wanted to follow Jesus. I chose to and not Jesus wanting it. I don't know cos' in a way, yes Jesus wants me to follow. But.. I don't know how to explain but really.. thanks to Pastor Ky who got me to think about it seriously. & the thing is.. We have to seek Jesus before finding Jesus asking us to follow Him. Because when we seek, we will find. & I might not have been seeking carefully or sincerely.. that gets me to think again--my faith and earnest desire for God.
Another great thing that happen to me was...MY MOM. :D We started talking and I shared about my views of some of her thinking and i think it did started to get her to think about it too. & the best part of it was.. she knew how much faith she is giving to God and she knows she isnt doing herbest. She wants to become better. :) & im so encouraged and happy to hear of that. Really.. :D It just makes my heart feel so warm and filled. I won't disclose what we discussed but Im really happy. Heeeeeeee. Thank God for that.
One more thing is.. does anyone ever really think about the part where God said about serving two masters--Money and God? Because from alot of people's thoughts, they feel that money is important. Money is important in many ways like, without money you won't have the things you want now, you won't have the luxury of having air-con during your sleep and you won't even have love for some people.. Money seems to be everything.. right? Many people are getting more and more materialistic these days. & I do not blame them because it's really a step away to that. But giving to God everything you have and thanking Him for having them is another difficult way to serve Him because to think of it, can you really give it all to God? & the good thing is that, you have already thought of it. The thought of thinking whether you can give it all to God for it is highly commendable. But we should try to do our best to please Him. :) Jiayou people, for we're never perfect in anyone's eyes but God Himself. Hehe. Hope it's a good thing for you to think about.
& something that is really not being encouraging is my dad. But.. I'll leave things to God. Hope that he will become better with God's aid. :) Sometimes, my emotions are really really hard to control because of lots of things but still, I wanna thank God for it's a challenge for me. So take care everybody. Poly is starting for me soon and orientation is this coming wed-fri. There's also a one day camp and the best thing is, I have so many friends that are accompanying me. :D Qiann, Cia and Evan. Heeeee. Ciaossssssss pppllllll~~
