My fever came back again... so I just kept on sleeping and sleeping...

While I'm at home, I decided to spend more time reading the Bible and articles that are being used by my church for morning prayer meetings. The first topic for this chapter is "Walking in the Holy Spirit." I was reminded of many things and there's this one analogy that left the deepest impression in my heart. So I'd like to share it with everyone:

Let's think about the traffic signal light at intersections...

Green means "go" and it's similar to how our flesh commands us to go ahead and do things base on our feelings. Whether it is good or bad, we just kept on going because it feels good.

Yellow means "caution" and "slow down." It's similar to our soul as those of us who are more in touch with our emotions can exercise certain amount of control to be cautious and slow down our pace.

And Red is similar to our spirit because it tells us to "stop" and wait for God's signal.

Walking in the Holy Spirit signifies that we've learned to stop as if though we saw the Red light. And it is usually when we stop then can we see God waiting for us at the red light. He's there to give us directions. Still, the final decision rests with where our heart is.

So here's the challenge: are we willing to surrender our thoughts, emotions, and personal will to God in order to gain the wisdom to stop, listen, and discern within His guidance for our decisions? We are, then, walking in the Holy Spirit. Or we can still choose our self will and do what pleases us.

剛剛又發燒了,所以就一直睡一直睡...
趁今天在家,讀了很多聖經和書,是現在教會早禱會用的材料
第一單元的主題是:行在聖靈中
其中這一段對我做了個提醒...和大家分享分享

想想馬路上的紅綠燈,
綠燈就像是你的身體,對所有感覺不錯的事都拼命喊"衝衝衝!!"也不管是好或是壞.
黃燈就像你的魂,比較謹慎,讓你放慢速度,檢視一下你的想法和感受.
而紅燈就像你的靈,因為它會說:"停!注意聽主的指示"

行在聖靈中代表你學會停下來,就像看到紅燈一樣
而主往往就在那裡等候著,要指示你當行的道路.
但是真正做決定的乃在於你的心

你願不願意讓你的心思,情感,意志與神相連
使你停下來,注意聽,分辨一下,
然後再照祂所說的作決定,選擇行在聖靈中?
還是你要隨己意而行,選擇隨心所欲?
