It has been awhile ever since my last update by blogging stuffs, due to own personality problem and yes, I am back to blogging.
Topic and things I want to share this time is the Gospel of Matthew Chapter 6:33. But I will give a brief introduction about it.
In the beginning, Jesus is telling us a way and attitude we should have when we helping the others in their need. Yet there are 2 types of people in this example, a man that wants the world what he had done and a man which does not want the world know what he had done. But why Lord Jesus said that these 2 men had received their rewards? It is because they had receive what they demanded for. The first man, he intend to let the whole world know that what he had done because he wants to be famous, having good fame, reputation and honor by the people around him. When he tries to show-off, yes, people will give him hand of claws and praise for his good works. All the glory goes to the person and left nothing for God. The passage did not said the man pleases God, but only saying he get his reward in full. The reward is the fulfillment of his own desires.
Then come into the second man. The man that willing to help secretly and not willing to let others know, this is a very good attitude before the Lord. Because this man knows that everything of what he owned is from God, God provided his needs and then only he had the sufficient to bless the others. Therefore, this man is actually a smart man with full of wisdom. He chose to give the glory to God secretly and then from the passage we could read that Jesus said, Father from heaven will sees and reward us! This reward is abundant, this reward is the Crown of Life!
(I will skip the middle part)
Then come into the problem and aspects that people will face in nowadays. Worries. Worries is basically not an issue or problem that occur only in nowadays. Try to think, 2000 years ago Jesus Christ already told His people not to worry for things yet to come, as He is in charge of everything and gain the full authority, yet no one listens. Until now, 2010, still Christ Jesus is telling us not to worry anything! Why? Why is God so persistently telling us not to worry? Because God is reign! God is true! There is a very good parable from Jesus. From the passage we can see that He said even the birds of the air, God also feeds them. Imagine that God did not say He had a father and son relationship with the animals, God did not said that the birds on the air is His children, but God told us that we are His children! Many people just don't understand, they carries plenty of problems and worries on their shoulder until they are too heavy and started to cry out loud or tired then backslide. This is not a situation that God wants to see! God wants His children to live in abundant and peacefulness! A child of God should live in a supernatural way of living, which is everything provided by God Himself and worry nothing! As God is great! Since we have a relationship with God, God is surely will provide our needs!
Then not to worry, what we could do? This is the interesting part. We can seek for His kingdom and His righteousness! (Matt 6:33) Once we seek for His kingdom and His righteousness, God will tell you 1 thing for sure, "My child, you had make the right decision.". God will bless you abundantly in an awesome way which you can never expect!
But how to seek for His kingdom and His righteousness?? You may ask. Well this is rather simple. What had contained in God's kingdom? Love, the answer is Love. We must have Love in our life and in our spirit. By showing love to the others and care for others' need by not letting the world know. If we had done something good, and we intend to tell the world, we are not doing something good and it doesn't please God at all. If we could serve very good, if we could shepherd very well, and without love, we done absolute nothing. (1 Corinthians 13:1-3). Therefore Love is the main key for us to seek for His kingdom! How about His righteousness? What is that? God is righteous, God is faithful, God is fair. You must know where you should stand when thing happens. You must understand what God likes and dislike. Therefore we must live as a faithful person before the Lord and let God bless us abundantly with what we want. But first, we had to seek for His kingdom and His righteousness!
