Obedience and Discipline

So there's just too much to mention how much God is working in the lives of many, including mine. And there will be many many more testimonies, life-changing stories, miraculous signs, God's unending grace and goodness that I'm going to testify and experience. But before I can meet up with that, I've got one big mission to accomplish, that is none other than what the title tells - to obey His words and discipline myself. It may seem easy but it's surely not. However, as God is a gracious God, He gave me 6 months to work on that.

Sometimes when the going gets tedious, I'll just stop and question why I'll have to do what He wants me to do, it looks somewhat boring, unexciting and kinda dull, but He always gently tells me to press on and persevere, the end result will be more than what I can expect. And that He will never fail me to see the things He has promised me to happen. It should be an utterly wonderful privilege to walk in His will and to partner with Him in the big projects. He absolutely deserves my heart, time and effort in the preparation for the good things that are to come. Well I guess even all the sweats and true efforts combined are still incomparable for the many blessings He has favored me. I'm clear that I certainly have nothing to complain and push about.

Yet, to be truthful, it really needs extraordinary faithfulness and commitment to breakthrough the many barriers of exhaustion, tiredness, lassitude, boredom, unwillingness etc. But based on the promise of God, I know I can overcome all these because He has already given me the strength to do so. Though undoubtedly there will be pains and struggles here and there, I am comforted by the truth that His mercies are new for me every morning! By the end of the training, I know will be able to put on the armor of God confidently and live victoriously.

Lord Jesus, thank You for choosing me, thank You for disciplining me because of love. Thank You for this opportunity and training ground You prepare for me. Thank You for Your perfect plans. Thank You for the pains I have to go through because I know I'm going to grow though them. Thank You for giving me Your promise and power that I will overcome all things. Thank You for always being by my side and never forsaking me in my disappointments and the times that I failed and hurt You. Thank You for Your great love that nothing can separate this love for me. And thank You for giving the best for me. I'm grateful. Thank You :)

♥ JESUS LOVES ME!!! ♥
