I attend a night service. The preacher shares about the importance of prayer through the power of the Holy Spirit. Altar call welcomes everyone to receive God’s help and blessing. Thus I respond to the altar call for God’s help in my life. In my heart, I ask the Lord for forgiveness upon me. Someone doctored my resume so that the government can give me grant. The course teacher mentioned his company needs help. I respond that I would like to be part of the project. However, after I attend the 3 days course, he forgets his promise. I don’t want to get into trouble with the law. I ask the Lord for discernment and wisdom. I will not believe into people’s empty promises of job opportunities. This happened outside of Japan.

Thanks for reading my poetry and hope this poetry minister and bless you.

Your God Jar

For those who have many problems.

Source of Inspiration

Put it in your God Jar
forget it
it’s not your problem
anymore.

Don’t take it out
and look at it again
worry some more
just write the problem down
put it in your God Jar
and forget it.

It’s God’s Miracle.

Wallowing in Worry

Source of Inspiration

Oh, how we love to wallow in worry
fretting over this or that
refusing to turn to God
who promises peace.

What masters of complaint
have we become
critical, judgmental
never satisfied.

Our Lord promises us
peace, joy, life abundant
if we but follow
Him in sweet surrender.
The choice is ours.

What does the Bible mean by “dying to self”?

Self to die? How? Read Michael’s articles.

altruistico

The concept of “dying to self” is found throughout the New Testament. It expresses the true essence of the Christian life, in which we take up our cross and follow Christ. Dying to self is part of being born again; the old self dies and the new self comes to life (John 3:3–7). Not only are Christians born again when we come to salvation, but we also continue dying to self as part of the process of sanctification. As such, dying to self is both a one-time event and a lifelong process.

Jesus spoke repeatedly to His disciples about taking up their cross (an instrument of death) and following Him. He made it clear that if any would follow Him, they must deny themselves, which means giving up their lives—spiritually, symbolically, and even physically, if necessary. This was a prerequisite for being a follower of Christ, who proclaimed…

Where do our hearts are caught in between?
Love of relationship or love of mammon?

Matthew 6:32-34 (KJV)
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

I realized that I’m in a difficult period of my life phase in mental and financial issues. The news of widows in financial dire scared me off. The current job I did doesn’t pay much. It will not be enough per month if my husband loses his job. Though his pay isn’t that high, it is still enough to pay for our daily expenses. Everyday, I bring it to prayer with thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6). But I’m still struggling in my ministry, family and work commitments. I begin to wonder do I set own expectations too high. But I don’t want to compromise it because I want to hear the praises from Jesus (Matthew 25:21) at the end of my life. Thanks for reading my poetry and hope this poetry minister and bless you.
