The response of man

Was too carried away in life, so much so that I've not really much time to blog nowadays. Blogging to me isn't an avenue where I vent my frustrations on, not a place where I rant on my life, but I hope that this blog will be used for God's glory, where I can boast of Christ's blessing to the people around me :)

I've a great time at St John's Island during National Day, and God indeed taught me many lessons even in that short time there. Talks with Ian always pays off with me always the party who benefits from the talks, indeed thank God for this dear brother. I also witnessed people who broke down, needing the Lord's Spirit and the Spirit was moving! Thank God for everything and my God is just so awesome and gracious! :)

I would like to quote a verse in the Bible that has blessed my heart this week.

Psalms 27:8 - When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.

This is a Psalm of David, and it is split into 2 parts, with the psalmist's faith from V. 1-6 and his desire towards God, and expectation from him from V. 7-14.

I was impressed and blessed by this verse because I know that the Lord is constantly wanting us to seek his face. So much so that he sent his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins, so much so that we all can be reconciled with God himself! Isn't that a wonderful thought?

I see 2 responses in this verse from a man's perspective. We can choose to obey, or to ignore God. I love David because he simply said " Thy face, Lord, will I seek" which means that it can be done since David himself chose to obey God in this. It isn't hard at all, and when we trust God, he said he will shower blessings upon us, for faith cometh by hearing, and hearing from the Word of God.

So the question is, what will your respond be today?

May the good Lord use this to encourage your heart! :)
