How many times now,
we learn, we see, we feel, we know
But we've not yet done.
James 2:18 : "But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do."
Knowing and realising isnt enough.
Proverbs 3:5-6 : "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight"
because I know, but I dont do. Thats why I cannot rely. Jeremy said last night to a couple of us, "It is because YOU have THE SPIRIT in you, thats why you struggle with sin." I think its comforting to know that Christianity isnt all peaches and creams. That it is not a faith we follow, but a relationship. That when we contend with sin, we're really contending against what we know would make God sad. Like in every relationships on Earth. Regardless of circumstances we dont want to let the other side of the relationship feel sad. Which is why we contend with ourselves not to sin, so God would not feel sad.
Thanks Joshua, for talking to me last night about the concept of pre-destined prayer. About it not being something which you prayer knowing that the answer is right behind the door, deciding. That it is about praying, for the things we want, that we truly want because it pleases Him. That the misconception that Prayer is something to ask for what you want, is true and false in 2 contexts. Thank you anyway.
On a side note Bchem was good! Thank you Dr Srivani and all my lecture mates for helping me understand all those plots stuff whatever things! hahahaha 2 more papers, INAC, goodness.
