KEEP THOSE RECORDS

WILMA D. DANTES

Every day in our lives we experience many ups and down. We maybe at home or in our work place. Nobody is excuse from meeting the burdens of life. No matter how faithful to God we are still he allows us to go through certain things to test us. God sees how our hearts respond to the many hurdles of life. We treat difficulties as problems and not challenges. Then we develop a vindictive attitude. It is best turn to him and trust God to make the wrong right.

We may not please everybody, some may not treat us well, instead of having a heavy heart towards these people, let us lighter our mood and start counting God’s blessing. Let us not suppress the sad experiences because these will just ruin our hearts and mind. We must understand that we are not working for merely few people but we serve in the name of our Lord. God is keeping good records. He is closely watching our situations and he is going to payback every little deed in ABUNDANCE.

We must not only do good things to be appreciated by our boss otherwise we will not satisfy him or her all the time. Let us do our best and God will do the rest. In doing these things, we allow God to interfere His God’s plans, purposes and blessing in our lives. Our positive attitude will lead us to a life free from complaining and doubting the many circumstances in our lives. Let us learn to WAIT for God’s time not our time, if we do this, His records will say, it’s time for us to advance up the ladder, all the forces of evil cannot hold us down. God will reward us for our faith and goodness.
