Growing wise

It takes a pretty long time for one to grow and be wise.

Unless someone takes the trouble to teach you wisdom. Otherwise, the journey is tedious. Nevertheless, even if someone teaches you, it may not mean much until one got "bitten" by an experience. Yes, it is quite unfortunate that most need a painful experience to learn the word, "wisdom".

In fact, many do not even know "what on earth they are doing here".

The truth is, when God brings us into this world for His pleasure.

Yes, we are supposed to be His delight. Obviously, sin has separated us from Him. Therefore, we need Jesus, to bridge the gap between "man and God". Tell me, who else but Jesus mentioned that the penalty of sin is death? And that God sent His Son, Jesus, to save the world from their sins?

As such, if you will think simply and logically, it makes very good sense for us to receive the forgiveness of our sins. Once we admit our flaws and realise our need for a Saviour, it sets us free from a meaningless life.

It is rather pathetic if the sole purpose of living is to grow, attend kindergarten, primary, secondary, jc, poly, ite, and the university, go to the army, find a job and a wife, marry, have children, do a little community service, show kindness, go on tours, visit countries, pick up a hobby to hang out with a bunch of buddies who are not true friends, buy a car, house, property, jet, diamond, gold, silver, build a castle to show your wealth... and in the end still feeling empty inside.

So, what are you waiting for?

He is just beside you waiting for a response from you. It costs you nothing to simply receive. But, it costs God everything He has. It is written, "For God so loved the world that He gave His Only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16

It's Sunday! Jesus is alive! forevermore!

God bless you who are reading this!
