When i chance upon this name on the net, it just simply caught my eye cos the name is so meaningful; using the gift that God has given. And it really inspired me to turn my dreams into reality and by using what God has given me to acheive my destiny! Believe that a new enocunter will bring on a whole new life, and i am prepared to do greater things for God in future even though i may face difficulties.
Learnt a very impt attitude called meekness yesterday whicgh i feel that it is a must have attitude if we want to build on a closer and deeper relationship with each other. Simply, meekness does not mean weakling, and lack of personality, opinion or self esteem.
1. Meekness is the attitude of humility
2. Meekness is esteeming others better than yourself
3. Meekeness is the absence of the spirit of retaliation
4. Meekness is the presence of self-control
5. Meekness is total trust in the Lord
6. Meekness is demonstrated by serving others
7. Meekness is submission to God's will.
And what deeply impacted me is that meekenss means the absence of retaliation. At times, when we face a conflict with even our best friends, we tend to aruge or so call retaliate just to make sure that our own views or points are correct. Yet, even when sometimes we are correct, but if we do not exercise self-control and ended up in argument, that is when relationships will experiece a crack. What pst Kong said yest that touches me most is that i need to forgo some of my rights and hold my emotions in check at times and when i do that, God will defense me and the truth will come to light. As such, when we face conflicts at times, we shld really ask ourselves isit really worth breaking a relationship that could be build upon for years just to make sure we are always right all the time??
Only when we learn to self control, we learn how to be meek and we shall achieve our destiny:D
A new journey of greatness is coming......=)
