Reacting quickly & positively; answering
With time we Grow, we get molded and emerge as strong
characters. But it is with the same time we are found to be procrastinating, sleeping
and wasting on worthless things. How long would we take to respond to our
Lord’s calling.. “Follow Me!” John 21:19.
“Prepare to meet your God” Amos 4:12. If there is no
difference in the lives which we live and that of the others, how can they ever
come to know about our God. One day we will all fly away to meet the Lord in
the air, but does our lives reflect the same. Or do we still live a life, as if
we are going to be here for Generations, building our own kingdom and
increasing our own territories – conformed and anchored to the world. “For
where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” Matt 6:21, says the word
of God. What is the message we leave for others to read from the pattern of our
living?
In John 21, we can see the Lord asking Peter, “Do you love
me..”. He said yes Lord and you know that. Well, his words said so, but his
response in action did not reflect it. Hence, God made it very clear saying, if
you really love me, then Feed my lambs, Take Care of my sheep and Feed my sheep.
You love a God, who is mindful about everyone of us. If we say we love Him,
then He wants us to show His love to our friends and colleagues at workplace.
How can I ever say that I love God and not be mindful about the ones whom He
loves so much.. He loves the whole world... and wants everyone of them to be
saved. Jesus said if you love me, “Follow Me!” John 21:19. As a Good Shepherd
he laid down his lives completely for His loved ones.
What is the response to His knock at your Door,
What is your reply to His question of “Do you love me”,
What answer do we have for millions of people who are taken
to Hell blind-folded just in front of our eyes,
What is the preparedness which we have to meet the Lord..
Only till the time we have the breath we can respond to this
calling...
How can we ever respond after we are dead and gone..
And who is sure of who will last even for the next minute..
If you keep quiet, the stones will cry.... Luke 19:40. Come,
let us respond with no delay to His love by praying for our friends and
colleagues at workplace – Vision 100. “The great day of the LORD
is near— near and coming quickly.” Zephaniah 1:14
“Jesus said... Do you love
me..?... Then .. Follow Me!.” John 21:15-19
