Today I've learned a lot from this Sunday service.
-Trying and training
Faith is not about trying things that God told us to do, is not trying what God wants with us, but its about training to be what God wants us to be. The pastor take a an example of a Marathon Athlete, we all can have the will of becoming one, and with a strong will and faith inside of us, all of us can try to run the marathon and finish it. But if we train hard, we can be even better than only trying. Trying will only bring how far we can go, but training will bring us to where we want it to be. Becoming a God's people is not trying to be like Jesus, but to train ourself so that we can be like Jesus.
-Knowing Him and learning Him
One thing that we can do to become like HIM is not learning HIM, but knowing HIM. The pastor take an example, if he(the pastor) send a letter to one of us, and start reading and learning the content of the letter by learning the meaning of the pastor's name and looking the meaning of each word in the dictionary or in a encyclopedia, in the end we will feel tired and knowing nothing about the content. But what we need to do is to read, and experience HIM in our live. So its about knowing HIM and invite HIM in our live
-Busyness and hurry
our live is full with work, study and all things that makes us to be in a hurry in all things. Sometimes in our spiritual live, we all feel the same, we all doing things that we think that is what God whats us to do. We need to have our quite time and have quality times with HIM. We can all be busy but still we can have quality time, but we cannot be in a hurry but have a quality time. Therefore be busy and not be hurry.
(PS: I just realize, does the word business comes from the word "busy-ness"???)
