Complete rest

Alas! Time for a complete rest in bed.. Either I'm too fed up with my office work or just simply too fed up with life. So, caught the flu bug and eventually, took an mc to rest. Anyway, it's not about life that I'm too fed up.. Just being annoyed and tired with work, that's all. Nevertheless, Daddy God has been gracious to keep me going. Waking up every morning is considered a blessing. However, what to expect of the day, really gotta depend on our Abba Father.

Praise be to God for His faithfulness and love that He has never failed to supply. His Grace is always more than sufficient. I thank Daddy God for a person who wrote this comment "Jesus DID die for you but where in the Bible do you see him promising you lots of money? Who in the Bible became RICH by following God? Was Jesus a rich man?"

It really brings me even closer to Daddy God by knowing how much more He loved me and how the verses start to come forth to allow me to realise that my Creator Jesus is the richest of all. My heart started to burn up when the Holy Spirit began to tell me how Jesus had turn water (which is quite tasteless) into the best wine on earth. Wine speaks of wealth in the household. Wealthy families are able to afford the best wine. Anyway, I remember having to taste the best wine from Germany which is so smooth and fragrant.

In this context, water seems to signify a very plain and simple life while wine signifies the best of all things on earth with a truly awesome taste and texture. Life is actually like wine. It's full of taste and texture. The longer you let the wine stays in the wooden barrel for fermentation and preservation, the fragrant the wine can get. Likewise, the longer we allow ourselves to indulge in the living Word of God, the better the life is.

Praise be to Daddy God! Life without Jesus is definitely a drag and pain. With Jesus, He dwells inside me. Wherever I go, I know He's always with me. Whenever I'm down, He's always there to lift my heart with joy and gladness and most importantly, the peace within. Whenever I face a challenge, He's always there to carry me on His Shoulders. His Hands are indeed bigger than mine. My hands are too small to hold anything. Only His Hands are greater and stronger.

Well, I'm going to have a complete rest at home. Though I have my dreaded flu, I won't complain coz I rather stay home to rest than to go back office to work. Anyway, I'm still the righteousness of God in Christ. Not by my efforts and behavior, I still have my right standing with God through my Lord Jesus. This is my birth right and I will not want to be like Jacob's brother Esau who sold his birth rights to Jacob. Selling his birth rights is equivalent to renouncing his relationship with Jesus. Once bought by the blood of Jesus, nothing can take me away from Him. Nothing on this earth can undo what Daddy God had already done for us, that is, to purchase us with the blood of His Beloved Son, Jesus.
