October story

October is almost done & soon it will be Christmas.

Time flies.  Looking back to year 2017, what had I done for God & others? There are some goals that I yet to achieve,  but the last couple days make me thinking.

What IMPACT and CONTRIBUTION am I making to others from my life?  Am I doing good to others,  lifting up the dignity of others through my work?  Am I making other people's lives better through my work? Who am I working and living for?

Today's devotion teaches me about sibling love. Sometimes,  I dont feel much love from them as much as I expected. However,  is that what am I living for?  Did God asked me to be loved first and love others in return?

The answer is no. God asked me to love God first and love others like I love my self second. And it's not easy. It's not easy because I am so used with the consumerism mindset. I demand others to perform because they have the label "brother" or "sister".

Living for Christ also means put others above my self (in a healthy boundaries level).  In times when I feel not loving others as much,  help me to love graciously because of You.  Enable me to love others like You do.

Thank you Jesus.
