Life is going well and we continue to understand what it means to serve God with our whole lives. I was very touched this past Sunday with what the pastor of our church had said. He talked about not throwing time away on fruitless things. He spoke also on prayer and the fact that we need to pray and something will happen. Before we leave the house each morning pray that God will use you. Then look for those opportunties to be used. So often it is extremely scary to pray that prayer because what if God takes us out of our comfort zone?!? Amazing things can happen outside our comfort zone. If we truely want to be used by God to do His work we need to be asking Him to show us.
Another verse that I had underlined from a while ago and once again is becoming real is found in Luke 3:9, "Kapak sudah tersedia pada akar pohon dan setiap pohon yang tidak menghasilkan buah yang baik, akan ditebang dan dibuang ke dalam api." Wow! If I am not producing good fruit, I will be thrown into the fire. Powerful verse! Am I producing good fruit? How can I tell? Lord use me this week to produce good fruit. Amen
