Leaded by God


This morning temperature out of my apartment was zero degree. Although this month are autumn , the temperature are very cold. But I have to go to do my job in my company in the cold temperature. I used 3 sheet of blouse to reduce that cold.

My reflection today took from Numbers 9 : 15-23. This chapter told about Israel that leaded by God in the desert. Every one known about compass. It can lead us when we are miss the way. Lately, People used GPS (Global Positioning System) to lead every one where ever we are. That tool can make our activity become simple. Now we are not scare if we go to some place although we do not know the way. And how about Child of God like you and me. Are there GPS of God that lead us every day in our life? Are we scare when we are in the unknown place with different characteristic? If we believe with God way, and we want to be leaded by God, we will not go with wrong way. We have to keep the God words in our life, keep relationship with God every day and read a Bible more and more to known what Jesus want to do in our life. Do not be scare if Jesus near us. God Bless Us.

Wrong Way

Today my reflection took from Exodus 3 : 1-6. The chapter told about Moses that called by God. Moses is a shepherd. When he done his work, he went to the wrong way/street. He went to A God Mountain. He meat God in the desert. As Moses, Henri Dunant went to Paris to meet Napoleon. But because napoleon was not there, he meat Napoleon in the battle field , Italy which not his purpose firstly. He took the wrong way. But in that journey, he known everything about the battle in Italy. Because of that he built red cross to help people in battle field. He built it because he felt, he might to help all people.

Now, we are as Jesus follower, are there anything else in our wrong way which we are be called by God to serve His in this life? Maybe in this life we had all plan or schedule that must be do. That is all right, but if we do some things , out of our schedule, we have not to be panic or frightened. We have to do all things in this life because as Jesus follower where ever we go, Jesus are near us and we certain Bless by God. Amen.

Death

Today i worked in a mountain range. There is very cold. My job always out of doors. In the winter, it is very complicated. But because i came to Japan to work, i received it what ever the situation. My aim is when i come back to my country, i will be better than now.

Today my reflection took from Psalm 90 : 1-12. This chapter told about God become eternal life. Yes, in this world we just have time just 70 years, and if it is over, it is a gift from God. If we think, in that time, what shall we do? for someone that time is very long, but for another one that time is fast. What ever people said, but as Jesus follower, we have to think it. What is the best things that we had to do in this time? Is our life be filled with Jesus ways? The death will come to all people without think he/she rich or poor, old or young, boss or servant, or any things else. But the reason is where will we go after the death? In the sort time, i want to be God servant. Our behavior will be a mirror for all people. We can invite all people to be Jesus follower, and made Her as our eternal life although the death come. The death just the way or transformation of our life become our eternal life. There is no another ways to Heaven. Jesus only. God Bless us.


The important is not when the death come but what we has to do in this life

Opinion

Today I think the temperature in my place is cold now. In a mountain peaks, the snow had fallen. Very cold. This condition is different with condition in my country. In my country, the coldest temperature is 10 degree, but in here, Japan, the coldest is minus 17 degree.

Today my reflection took from Jeremiah 42 : 1-22. 44 : 1-7. The chapters are told about asked some question/opinion/guidelines. As Jeremiah and Israel asked a guidelines to the God, but they did not heard what God suggestion. Firstly they asked some opinion to God, but actually they wanted to do something with their opinion. They did not do the God way.

Sometime we do it in our life. We ask someone,but actually we just want to do our opinion. we just confirm it to someone. But if we ask to God, we can not do it. We has to follow God way as His Answer. It is important i think. In this decades, all people use their thinking, technology, or other information as a way. It lead their with small risk. But actually, their are afraid. Their did not believe it. We just have one person who believed. Only Jesus Way. God Bless Us.


When we ask guide of Lords, be prepared to obey It

Forgiveness

This morning i got headache. I had some problem with my skin, and because of that when i was sleeping, i scratched my skin. Last night i just slept approximately 3 hour. It is be my problem now. Today i did not go to work. I went to clinic skin center. Doctor said that the trouble come from my body in inside. Doctor suggested me to drink some medicine and oil skin to reduce trouble. It is very complicated , if we have some disease when we stay in foreign country.

Today i read a bible as my reflection from Philemon 1 : 8-19. The chapter told about forgiveness. Maybe we dislike to some one if she/he always remind our fault in the past. In the past we had been forgiven by her/his, but when in the future we do another fault, she/he always remind and discuss it. That problem make us be a guilty people forever. We will be confused how to return it. Yes, as a Jesus follower we do not be pessimist. Our sin were be forgot by Jesus 20 century ago. Now, we has to forgive another people and we have to forget it. Forgive and forget and the last is love. I think if we do it, maybe there is no one will be disappointed. Are you agree? God Bless Us.

Be Careful

This morning rain fall in my apartment. I thing the rain often fall in the autumn. Because of that and sometime in the daylight weather is very hot, the leaf become fallen. I do not understand about this condition, in my country (Indonesia) only have 2 season (rain season and dry season).

Today my reflection took from Galatians 1 : 6-10. This chapter told about Gospel of Christ that preached with another gospel. Yes, in this decades we have to be careful. Someone can offer to us a gospel contrary to and different from that which we accepted before. If we never know about the bible and never read it, maybe we can be trapped. Remember, the Gospel not come from man, preacher or angel, but It come from God. We as a God follower must be careful and keep our faith with read a Bible continuously and keep our way in the Jesus way.
Amen





The Holy Scripture was the only standard of the truth of the our faith

Awry

My place began cold in the morning. I think this year winter will come fast. In autumn my mountain in front of my apartment is beautiful. The color of the leaf is became changed. Motley of leaf are mingled in that mountain. Japanese call it "koyo". Very beautiful.

Today my reflection took from Exodus 14 : 9 - 14. The chapter told about the
exceedingly frightened of Israel when Egyptians chase them. Sometime we are awry when big problem came to us. We do not knew how to solve that problem. In the other word when we want to do something but it is wrong conversely when we run from that problem, it is wrong too. long time ago Japanese choose suicide as a short way. But we as Jesus follower will not do that. we believe that Jesus can do anything. Nothing impossible in Jesus, is not it?

Big problem can be happen all in our life. In our family, in our activity, in our job. But as Moses said "
Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show to you to day". That you be strong after hear that?I hope we can try this step.
  1. The first step is "not be fear". The fear can not solve the problem.
  2. Stand still in faith of Jesus. Sometime people choose the short way to solve that problem without thinking firstly.
  3. We have to surrender our life and our self to Jesus. We can solve that problem alone. We only say it with our pray to Jesus. Because there is not other way.



The Lord opened the way when the way is dark

Sympathy

In this morning I woke up at 4.00 am, whereas I slept at 00.30 am. I think because of to much consumpt coffee, my eyes become awaken. It is not good for my body, isn`t it? Caffein is important, but if we consumpt to much, it will make bad effect.

Today my reflection is be taken from Luke chapter 18 : 9-14. It tell about sympathy. Sometime we was happy on the person`s that has a difficulty. We say " it is luck not happen to me". But Jesus Said "I tell you, this man went down to his house justified
rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted (luke 18 : 14). There is no ones in this world perfect. We all sinner. We can`t life alone. We need everyone who support us when we are weak.

We as a Jesus follower must be bright in the complicated world. Many people outside need our sympathy. We have to support a weak people that have difficulty. They don`t understand how to solve their problem. In that time, we can introduce Jesus as a salvationist. Only Jesus can solve our problem. we are child of God. We are belong to him. We just bring our self to near Him. God Bless Us all the time.
Amen


God be merciful to me a sinner

Problems

Last night I slept at 11.5o pm. Because of that, when I woke up in the morning, my eyes still heavy. But That was not a reason to canceled my discipline to read a Bible and contemplate The God Words. This morning I read a verses about problem (took from Job 42 : 1-6).

Like a job, we sometime blamed God if some problems came to our life. We were be angry, disappointed, and we were be weak. But if we truly read Job 42 : 2, " I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from thee" I believe that God can do it in my life. It is not easy to keep it. We must have faith to say Amen. Because The God Words is Amen and He promised " There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." (1 Corinthians 10 :13). That Words is wonderful and give powerful to me. And if temptation come to me,I will keep smile because Jesus in near me. Smile......

Respond to the temptation with FAITH will bring us more close to the LORD

Pray For Child

In the morning I woke up at 6.00 am. This is my usual time to read a bible before I go to work. I don`t know, why the other people can`t do this simple behavior. Yes, sometime I am bored, sometime my spirit weak. But I can`t descsribe about my experience, after I spared my time to read a Bible and pray a lot of things in my life, quickly somethings happened.My burden and my heavy laden become refresh. Because of that, I try best to bring nearer to God every day and keep read a Bible although my spirit some time down.

Today, my reflection tell about "Pray to Child" (Mark 7 : 24-30). Hehe.. I am still single. I don`t have any one yet. But I belive that we have to pray to our parent firstly, afterwards when sometime we getting married and have a kids, we must pray to them. Pray everything in their life, their society, and the important things is they keep Jesus as their Savior all the time and always keep God Words. Keep Praying.
God Blessed Us.
