Today, a thought just hit me while i was in the toilet. I realised that i havent been the least bit obedient to God. I mean yes, i do have a desire to know him more and have a deeper relationship with Him but all that ive learnt during my daily devotions just slip out of my mind the next day, tucked away somewhere in my brain, or even disappear completely and in goes something new. it seems almost like im in a different world when i do my qt and when im doing my usual work and all. but NO, that's not supposed to be the case. I really hope i can do something abt it.

thinking more abt it, i think its really abt stepping out of my own comfort zone and a test of whether im willing to go an extra mile for God. It's hard. very. But how's your faith going to grow if it's not being tested. See how God works here? awesome isnt it. GOD SPEAKS.

1 John 3:18-24 (New Living Translation)

18 Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions. 19 Our actions will show that we belong to the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before God. 20 Even if we feel guilty, God is greater than our feelings, and he knows everything.

21 Dear friends, if we don’t feel guilty, we can come to God with bold confidence. 22 And we will receive from him whatever we ask because we obey him and do the things that please him.

23 And this is his commandment: We must believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he commanded us. 24 Those who obey God’s commandments remain in fellowship with him, and he with them. And we know he lives in us because the Spirit he gave us lives in us.

Belief and love flourish together, because when we believe in Jesus, we have the power and the motivation to love like He does. "One another" even includes those that are hard to love. God loves us even though we're not always easy to love, so we should love those who arent easy to love either. Lets love because we believe in Jesus(:
