Reflecting and Scribbling away....

It truly makes u think deeper of life...

Psalm 52:8 says, "But I am like a green olive tree in the house of GOD: I trust in the mercy of GOD for ever and ever."

... At the foot of the CROSS.....

This morning waking up with such a need to blog this post.. Remembering that I wrote on the post about "Judgement"... where the Word of God clearly says that we are not to judge anyone in any circumstances even when we are wronged unfairly. And I mentioned that I have learnt a tip from my experience on how to handle it... not easy but it works because... well, read on...

My spiritual godmother taught me about putting all at the foot of the Cross... During my recent experience and even up till now and I think even for the days to come, the one and only thing I do is to put all those feelings that are not right (meaning, pointing towards judgement and stuff) at the foot of the Cross. It is a constant effort to do that but I find that now, I automatically do it and it becomes abit more natural. The first few times, I had to grit my teeth to do it but God's Grace and Mercy brought me thus far.. and I believe He is bringing me even further still in the days to come.

The next step would be to bless the person or the people. Of course, that is definitely not easy yet it is required of me and it could be done with being obedient to the Lord. It could be done with the need to ask myself, "where is my Focus?". If my focus is on Jesus, then it could be done because He wants me to bless. But if my focus is on my hurts and wounds, then, it couldn't be done. Yet, I know that my focus is on Jesus and so, I could do it for He will give me the Grace to do it. Gritting teeth again initially but gradually, it becomes more natural.. That is what I am experiencing even at this hour.. and I am able to write coz I am seeing it clearer in my own journey at this juncture and also with the teaching at Elijah House.

The key is OBEDIENCE to Him and to His Word. Tough as it can be initially but it becomes easier after few times and in fact, after that, the person who is most blessed is Me.. Wow.. I am feeling so free, more than I could fathom.. And the healing process is much faster than normal.. Amazingly true..

Dying to SELF and putting all at the foot of the CROSS... Lord Jesus is there... so, I am not alone. And no one else would be alone. Why? Because, He is there. Lord Jesus is there...

Be blessed by this song... "At the Foot of the Cross... "....
