Have you ever spent to much time focusing on the things that really don't matter. Yesterday, I found myself extremely senstive and frustrated. Why? you ask, because I was focusing on things that in the grand scheme of things don't matter. I realize my heart wasn't the least bit set and focused on Jesus. The people, things and circumstance around me were too much of my concern. So this morning as I woke up I could really see how far I was from the feet of Jesus. I could see how He wasn't the benificary of my actions. So what do I do now, I must first do a 180 from the way I behaved before. But most definatley I must be faithful to preaching the gospel to me, Jameika. I need to hear of the perfect, spotless, blameless life that Jesus Christ lived and how He gave that all up for the sake of me who would have my back turned away from Him. He die a horrible death and bore my sin and the sins of the world on His back. All so I would be back in the right standing with my Daddy in heaven. When I hear that message it replenishes me of the joy that can only be found in Jesus. No performance, no amount of service, no exact number of times to share the Gospel. Nothing but the work of Jesus Christ that pays the penalty. That is joy more than anything else I can indulge in. So, in the grand scheme of thing I only need to be about the things that are only fitting for the King. Not the things that indulge and please the old me but the things that displays the best of the work that has been done in me. So may my feet be on the pavement seeking to bring glory to the King.In the grand scheme of thing this life that I now live is not about me. I must think about life in Jesus....that deines the Grand Scheme of Things.
Amen..Amen
