Lost Sheep

One of my brother in Christ remind me of acknowledge God in everything that I do. My language of command is not so good, so I ask him of the meaning. It means knowing that God is watch over us and have authority over us all the time. As a christian, we have to know his existence and responsible to him.

What if I don't? It is very different. I try it before. I try it recently. If I do not acknowledge God, I will do everything as I like. God teach me to love my neighbor; I do not think my neighbor is lovely, so I do not bother at all. God teach me not to do bad things; I do all sort of bad things. I cannot tell you what is that, because I want to gain people respect. This is nonsense. According the Jesus standard, (Matthew 5:28) But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. That is so striking when I first read this verse from bible. If I do not having Jesus Christ in mind in my life, my life is a mess. It is just going wrong.

Compare this to having Jesus Christ in mind to guide my life. It is still a mess, but it is adjusting to the right way slowly. For your information, my progress really slow, I hope it does not stop though. I have some different god previously other than Jesus. All those teaching is really the best, but the problem is it is just a condemnation for me. It is like a finger pointing at you saying, “You are not doing this right thing, you are doing bad thing again, again and again! You are a mess!! You are really bad!!!”

Surprisingly, Jesus say the same thing to me too, “You are not doing this right thing, you are doing bad thing again, again and again! You are a mess!! You are really bad!!! But I forgive you and want to bring you eternal life with me.”

I accepted the offer. Some says it is free, but it is going to cost you your life. Is it like a slave? It actually is, but this master is better. He says, (Jeremiah 29:11) For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Mathematically, our life is maximum 100 years, eternal life is infinity. 100 years for infinity year(s). It is quite a good deal. I accepted the offer but not paying the price yet. I want to.
