yea, been pretty busy/lazy in posting the past few days, can already feel the holiday mood coming over me. My biggest concern or worry in the holidays is me wasting time, soo gotta make sure i minimize that this time.
Php 3
12 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
i remember that in the last spiritual encounter, this whole thing on pressing on and seeking God were of high importance. Example, in the alter calls, a lot of it was just us responding to the call, and while up at the alter, we sought after God and really had to press in into His presence. I remember sessions where the alter calls would be really long, and if your not focused, you could easily be distracted or just give up totally on the thing that you were praying for. Many times when there's this great message that's being preached, or something that God is revealing to us through His word, many times what we initially see is just tip of the iceberg, and we will only be able to see or understand the full picture when we press into God and really like how Jacob wrestled with the angel and refuse to give up until you receive what you set out to achieve. I strongly believe that many times, you will only receive what you are really desperate for, and that our faith is seen best in desperate situations. One question that i normally ask myself is how badly do i want it?
For this upcoming spiritual encounter, im sure everyone would go having expectations and desires, and prayers to be met and answered. But then, we/i have to check and first see how badly we really want it..
Where i am now? and where am i supposed to be?
