Was chatting with Brendy as she rant about her university life about pile of homework, taking babysteps to climb up the ladder of knowledge. Giving her an analogy of teaching a baby how to run. But how will a baby run, if he isn't taught how to take the 1st step? if the baby manage to run, what if he want to stop, he can't because he don't know how to even slow down, he might fall too, and he don't know how to get up after he fell down. likewise, as i chat this with her, i reflected on myself, with my walk with God. I have to take these babysteps too. I need to learn how to walk, how to get up when i fall, before i learn how to run. And not only learning them, i have to constantly do them. Why would i want to learn walking when i don't walk frequently. if i run just like that, i will just fall because i didn't know how to run properly and don't know how to stop. i need to build strong foundations, prayers, QT, mediating, reading the bible, are the babysteps, the walking, the getting up once you fell. So when i run, i will be able to evangelize properly; even as there are troubles, and i fell, i know how i can get back up.
The Wise and Foolish Builders
24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Matthew &:24-27

ReplyDeleteYes i understand what you meant~ I have been extra cautious nowadays when talking or in situations with girls~ What seems alright on the outside doesn't mean alright at the inside.
