God’s love for you
He has given up all that he had for you and me. His kingdom, His greatness, His throne, and even His life on that cross. So we may have an everlasting life.
What are you willing to give up for Him?

Destination Unknown
Today, I took my family on a short road trip. While cruising along the motorway… My dad asked me where I was taking them. I wanted to keep it a surprise so I was very reluctant to give even a slight hint.
My dad being the type of man he is was very persistent in knowing where we were heading. He asked me repeatedly in so many different forms. At last, he even gave me some ideal spots of where he would take us to if he was planning this trip. I kept strong and didn’t speak a word.
I was thinking how similar this is with God and us. When He is taking us on a life journey… We don’t want surprises. We want to know everything. We want to prepare ourselves mentally. You see… I knew where I was taking them would be a great place. That It would surpass their expectations. All they had to do was sit and enjoy the sceneries along the way.
They all were so consumed up in knowing the destination that they missed so many beautiful sceneries and experiences that I enjoyed while driving. That’s how we are like sometimes. We get so carried away with where we are going that we forget to enjoy the wonderful experiences along the way.
We need to trust our wonderful savior and just enjoy the experiences He takes us through. Sometimes we go through the mountains where life feels really good and sometimes we will go through valleys where giving up seems to be the only way. Sometimes the road is rough and the other times its smooth.
Just remember that at the end of the day…God knows where you need to be. He knows your destination and he’ll get you there safe and sound. So just chillax and relax.

What do you see?
Just a couple of days ago, we had a wonderful family who came over to our place for dinner. They have a sweet little daughter named Vinnie and we loved playing with her.
Topic came up about construction and Dad asked me to show this couple some photos of a construction site taken while constructing a dream house.
This little girl got curious and leaned over to see the laptop screen. She couldn’t see it clearly. So I showed her personally what we showed her parents. While I was doing so… Her parents praised of the builders and architects involved. They were impressed with how it was coming along.
The little girl looked at these photos of construction pillars & building structures and said to me something I’ll probably never forget. She said, “It’s…broken!”
While pondering on this… I think this is how we can be sometimes. Here is God (Architect and a Builder) trying to construct something beautiful that others can benefit from and we (children) think we’re just broken structures. I think we need understand and see it from the architect’s perspective to really appreciate the ‘work in progress’ .
Until we do that…We can never walk tall and proud of our saviors work in us because we realize not who we truly are. That we are the workmanship of God.
We need to grow up. We need to become the sons of God. I think we’ve been His children for too long now. Don’t you think?
