Today is sunday and I got a great blessing from the sermon from ICF church in wageningen, the Netherlands.
Ps Dick was preaching about change. From the scripture of Romans 12:1-2 we are told to be changed in mind.
One of the point we need to change is the attitude to bring ourself as a living sacrifice.
Normally sacrifice is always "dead", "burnt", etc. But "living sacrifice" is like what Christ has done.
When we give away our possession and make Jesus as our top possession, then our life will also become living sacrifice.
Sex, Power, and Money are something good. There is nothing wrong with it. But, when we do not want to give them away by using them only according to the bible then they will corrupt our heart and becoming idols.
Idols will give you meaning and determination in your life and at the end it is completely empty.
Only when we position Jesus in the correct place in our heart then we could experience the "quality of life" God has designed for us.
Many people still have thinking that God is Person who always looking around at people and when they have a good time He is trying to stop them.
Of course this is wrong. God has plan for us. His plan is abundant, content, perfect and peaceful.
I want to learn to give away everything to be able to live as what bible says.
Starting with simple thing of course. To give something that will bless others with my money. To be faithfully offering tites and so on.
Refreshing my commitment to do those things is very meaningful and I feel joy in my heart.
God bless you.
