To be a servant of god is to be the master of your life ...

We never want to bow down to anyone do we ? ... Do we ever let go of our opinion, our position or simply our pride in any argument ?

Most issues that arise from relationships is due to the fact that no one wishes to surrender to another. What most people forget is that the relationship is more valuable than proving whether you are right or wrong in an argument.

Let it be your parents, brothers / sisters, girlfriend / boyfriend or even a colleague. Sometimes, you've got to walk away for the sake of the relationship.

Its not accepting defeat ... its called surrendering ... and it starts from within. If we can't surrender our egos, how are we suppposed to surrender our will to that of our God ? Once you start living life the way that god planned for you ( not your plan mind you ) ... You will slowly realise that god's plan is actually the best one for you.

Lets face it ... He knows what he is supposed to be doing. Creating this world that we live in ... creation of a human being , the most complicated creation to date ... the giving of life ... science hasn't even scratched the surface of how miraculous this world is.

So ... god created us ... we all believe that he is the wisest of all ... then why on earth do we think that we can live this life on our own ? ... How do we even try to understand or let alone solve the problems / challenges that are thrown at us every single day ? ... Its a simple truth that we have forgotten ... but the fact of it is that if you turn to god .. if you let the spirit guide you ... if you ask Jesus to hold your hand through this journey of life ... its going to be that much better. Problems will no longer be problems ... but even if they exist, you will still be able to hold your head high.

Today's scripture says ... "If one of you wants to be great, he must be the servant of the rest: and if one of you wants to be first, he must be your slave-Like the son of man, who did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life to redeem many people" ... The whole point of this is to be humble. We always want to be the best, the greatest, to be better than the rest .... but thats not what its all about ... its about being humaine ... about caring for one another ... taking the time to help someone ... If god took the time to send his own son to save us from sin ... A son who was executed in the most brutal way possible so that our sins would be paid in full .... we as a generation who has received such grace are a bunch of ungrateful followers ...

I have been caught up with the temptations of the world ... my life has been spent in search of luxury most of my years ... but one incident which shook my life, saved me ... brought me back to the arms of Jesus ... He turned my world upside down just to say that he needs me ... and to show that i need him in my life ...

Do you want Jesus in your life ? ... He is already there with you ... just accept him with a smile !!!

God Bless You All !!! ... Have a Blessed Day !
