On the Positive Outlook of Serving

There are sometimes that we will feel a bit low when things that you have planned didn't turn up into your expectation. It is easy for us to momentarily resign into disappointment. Yet sometimes if we can be brave to face it and have the mental strength to think positively after some cooling down period, God can get rid of all the negative accusation that stem from Satan and our negative permissism, and make our soul freshed and renewed. Look like a self-help strategy, yet God always want us to trust that He is our only God. Like a parent want his children to be happy in their life, God want us to have His joy and peace in our heart. He will be glad if our soul to be refreshed and free. He will be sadden when our soul was indulged with sorrow and disappointment. So the Lord is our strength, to break us from the bondage of negative thinking.

So this is about our attitude to serve God. It is very easy to feel disappointed when serving Him, especially if we are aiming for perfection. Yet in the end of day, the Lord know what is the best. When we try our best, it's already perfect in God's eye. If God is willing, the impact will be much bigger than what we have imaged according to His timing. Of course, if our sacrifice is not the best for Him, then it is our own problem and we should repent. This raise another issue, why should we have to sacrifice our best to serve Him?... well... maybe God want us to offer like Abel but not Cain , or maybe this is the issue of our outlook towards life. 'I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.'(Gal 2:20)

Maybe our plan of future life, is to live a life that we never regret. Well...pouring our life wholeheartly to God will never be regretted.
