It's quite funny how over the course of this week and the weeks before, I've been asking God really fundamental questions about life. Questions like : What am I here for? What is my purpose in everyday living? They seem to be pretty prominent in my thoughts recently.
I've come to a point where I wonder about my purpose in existence, and the meaning and relation to God in the daily activities that I do.
Ever since leaving my old church, I've been serving way much less than before. And in this period of rest, minimal ministry stuff, it seemed as if God was stripping it down and allowing me to rediscover.
I just had zone meeting on Friday and the eyes of my heart popped out when Newson said this, " Everyone will ask three basic questions in their life. One, "Who am I?" Two, " What am I doing?" And three, "Why am I doing?" It's quite cool how sometimes, when God speaks to you, He really hammers the nail at the exact spot.
If I could sum up what I go out of the sharing, it would be the word 'relationship'.
I wondered why I couldn't see it. It was as if on Friday night, my blind eyes were open ( Bob Mendelsohn shared about the blind man today =) and I suddenly understood.
Learning to make christianity a relationship and not a job. =) It's not about performance!
And so I've decided to rediscover my relationship with God. It's like a second honeymoon, for a lack of a better expression. =P
