initiation.

This is something i've been thinking about the entire week. It's been bugging me, so i have to write.

Sometimes, I think we just need to look beyond ourselves a little. We may be busy with whatever we may have, and most of the time, we use them conveniently as excuses to sit back and do nothing. We just watch on. Afterall, someone else would do it for us. We're always waiting, waiting for someone else to do something. Unless we are asked to, we try not to even do anything at all. We have no problems taking initiation in one aspect though, to slip into our comfort zone and move according to our flesh.

What does it mean to repent? what does it mean to be convicted? There needs to be action, afterall it all speaks louder than words. It's easy for us to be temporarily inspired to do something after hearing a conversation with our leaders, but it takes persistency and consistency to actually do it, for a long time. Let's not be matchsticks that barely burn for a while and then turns into ashes, never to be used again.

I don't think it requires much intellect in this. I mean, seriously, we serve a great God. Ideas, inspirations and creativity that comes from Him. Why can't we allow the Holy Spirit to speak to us and do something that will touch others' hearts? you know, after He speaks to us for some time, and we refuse to move, some day He might just forget about even speaking to us.

Don't always be waiting. it's time to start something.

Don't make me feel like i'm doing things on my own. I need support too, show me you care, if at all.

Elison.
