TOTD, June 19-21

Formed for Goodness

In the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans, He did mention about this:

19One of you will say to me: "Then why does God still blame us? For who resists his will?" 20But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? "Shall what is formed say to him who formed it, 'Why did you make me like this?

--- Romans 9:19-20

We know that He formed us. He’s the potter and we’re the clay. It’s up to HIM---and not us--- to be formed according to His will. So, let’s not mumble or complain, but accept His plans for us. Believe that we are formed for goodness in this world. (-fon-)

God’s Voice

For those who listen and concentrate on Him, will definitely hear that His voice thunders in many marvellous ways. Like what Job said:

God's voice thunders in marvelous ways;
he does great things beyond our understanding.

--- Job 37:5

Have we listened to His voice? Have we got nearer to Him? (-fon-)

Choose

Every moment is a moment of choice. We need to choose between doing good or bad, loving or hating, being kind or being evil. And eventually, we need to show His goodness to this world by choosing His instruction rather than anything else.

If we need to choose, choose the good ones. Choose something that will show this world that we’re His wonderful disciples. (-fon-)

Choose my instruction instead of silver,
knowledge rather than choice gold,

--- Proverbs 8:10
