I was planting some sunflower seeds at the Home and I found myself giving some solid advice to the seeds as I place the seed in the soil "Quick die... So as to live again. So die die die!! Quick quick quick!"
In my quiet time this morning, I was encouraged by this statement that I read "God has made his promise to us -- It was ours to claim."
You know, after listening to so many tragic stories or even experience first-hand with the families, I have also come to the point of wondering - what are we fighting for? It is so ever common to feel that "This is my rights so I will do as I please." But think about it, what are our rights? What is my right?
In the biblical sense, isn't it easier, then, to die to ourselves - so that we can see a brighter future? We already have God's promises. So, what exactly are we scared about? Why is it that sometimes, we hesitate for so long? Perhaps, it's because we do not know how to trust - to trust that God CAN give us a brighter future if we let go of our pride and rights now.
Life's too short to 'play' around with my rights too much.
