Faith Pondering<br />
In Romans 12:1,<br />
Paul used “living<br />
sacrifice” to describe<br />
offering. In<br />
the Old Testament,<br />
many offerings<br />
were dead. In the<br />
New Testament,<br />
God requires living<br />
sacrifices, which<br />
last <strong>for</strong>ever. But<br />
today, many<br />
Brothers and Sisters’<br />
offering are<br />
not firm. Although<br />
they have offered<br />
themselves once,<br />
they don’t serve God everyday. They offered themselves to God in the morning.<br />
At night, they do what they want. They offered themselves to God last month.<br />
Today, they refuse to serve God. This kind of offering is not “living sacrifices”<br />
and is not pleasing God.<br />
Besides, the revival of church depends on every Christian who obey their gifts<br />
given by God and become the good steward of the various grace of God. God<br />
doesn’t create any useless things. God must use you. We need to prepare <strong>for</strong><br />
the eternal reward: As good stewards of God, with one mind, committed to<br />
the great commandment (love God & others) and the great commission (share<br />
the gospel).<br />
Today who is willing to completely offer ourselves to God, serve Him and glorify<br />
Him <strong>for</strong> the rest of our lives?<br />
Please pray and respond to God.
