.: 1st June Devotion :.
Hi Girls...
Did not manage to write my devotion this morning.. Since I had to reach NIE by 9am.. So initially thought need to reach at 830am so left house really early. Am dead tired now.. Furthermore the talks I had today was like not very helpful. On well.. haha it will be another 4 days of such talks.. Haha... Anyway thankfully for my friend who will be giving me a lift down to NIE for the next few days, I am intending to bless her with the bottle of water which I got from GDOP, together with my 100K blessing card! Pray along with me that there will be open opportunities.
How was the GDOP for you all? Do take time to share for those who went. I dont believe it is just a short time of coming together and pray. As I sand the song "We speak to Nations" I felt a tug of sadness in my heart. It had been something I have not experienced for some time.
I guess over the pass week, I have been constantly asking God to allow me to understand the youths of today, their likes, why they behave in certain ways, how then can I connect with them? Haha maybe some of you can help me with this by allowing me to understand the way you all think better! Haha...
Acts 2: 38
Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call."
40With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." 41Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.
I felt God was telling me just that from these verses as I read through Acts 2 again. He wanted me to warn those who are lost, those who are living in sin, those who know God yet are not walking right in the eyes of God. Not only to warn them but to plead with them to save themselves from this corrupt generation and to get them to repent and be baptize.
I guess in a way I do lost that zeal to really bring down things which are wrong, and in a way have been compromising God's standards. If I do not be the one who warn and plead, then who will? God promised with those who accepted this message, comes along with it many more salvations!
Maybe God is also calling some of you to move out to warn and plead, ot maybe to repent and save yourselves.
I want to claim that as we work through our lives, as we allow God to use us, thousands will be added, salvations will come!
God Bless
Ju Lee :P
