Watchful over life
A positive outlook in life ought to tone
down our emotions too. We should not force our will over God’s will by being
overly sentimental with some certain plea. We should acquire the strength
needed before dealing with some delicate supplications.
If possible, we should not sacrifice
our healthy outlook in life in exchange for certain concern we try to push God
would do. We should only pray for miracles and mercy but God decides for the
time when to answer our prayer and we ought to respect his will whether he
answers Yes, No or Later.
Our God is the King even over our
life and he is the King over some human desire. It is not healthy to be overly
sentimental or be carried with some unusual crying that may lead you to
depression or related consequences. Our life should be patterned to the life of
Jesus, submissive to the will of the Father, quiet as the lamb on the
slaughter.
Every day is a day-to-day submission
to the Lord uttering our Yes to him like the Fiat or Yes of Mary prior
to her conception of Jesus and the Yes to the will of the Father that the
Christ would die on the cross. We should take care of our health and be
faithful to God while there is still time because when we die, God decides for
our soul.
We should live not as much as to the
expectation of others but more fully because of God’s expectation of us. Our
life is sacred because it is God who gave it to us, and it is for him to take
it. We need to be faithful to Him respecting some occurrences he wants for our
life or other’s life. So when we are laid to rest, God can bring our souls to
heaven.
We should pray that God send someone
to us with regards to what we should do in order to be saved. We should also
learn a lesson every time from those that pass away that we should prepare our
selves anytime and be ready for an unexpected death so that when we give up our
last breath, it would not be so painful to our loved ones.
Every minute is a time of prayer, of
submission to God’s will and of our desire to live longer for a life well spent
is a life worth remembering. It would be then healthy for family and friends to
recall your good deeds and not be heavy over some remorse or regret when we
leave our loved ones grieving so much over our so painful passing away.
Nevertheless, it is the desire of
our family and friends that our soul would be received in the arms of God
through prayers and supplications. But it is always God who has the final word
over our salvation. However, if one has an unlikely death, the family should
still not give up hope for prayer is so powerful and to God nothing is
impossible.
God is always there for us. Though
He sees our destiny as tragic, through a life well offered to Him, he gets
excited over our desire to be saved and day-by-day is happy of our repentance
and renewal that he is convinced to change our destiny. But when we are
destined to be saved, but in the last minute fall away, he is also mournful for
us. That’s why we should be watchful for we know not when would God take our
life.
