New insights! Actually not exactly new, but it somewhat struck me.
It is for freedom that christ has set you free. Stand firm,then, do not let yourself be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. (Gal 5:1)
Man! its true. I shall not let my thoughts rule me. But I shall rule over my thoughts. I cant believe it, Im making myself a slave to my thoughts?! Gosh. That's bad. But i will grow. Thoughts are just mere thoughts that are created by me. I shall not think soo much useless stuff and read more of God's word. It will cleanse my perspective on things. Furthermore, His thoughts are not my thoughts, neither his ways my ways.
And i came upon this verse: if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other. (Gal 5:15)
Scary eh? It doesn't just apply in church context. As a friend, we need to know what's our limit towards jokes. Preferably dun go overboard. Likewise as for church, sometimes when we work too closely, there are times that we are sure to have conflicts, but we need to slove it in a biblical and logical way. Not shouting and saying things that you know will regret in the long run. Cos the wound at the heart will remain a scar forever. Anyway, practical point is: dun speak without thinking through the words. :)
Its rather late now. I think I shall sleep. Heh. goodnight!
