My Days with Christ Jesus

Day 60

March 01, 2015

Psalm 8:4 "What is man, that thou art mindful of Him? The son of man, that thou visitest him?"

Have you ever ask that same question David asked?

Have you gone at the point of your faith where you ask, 'Why is God doing this?' about His grace, the salvation He brought to us, and about the love He confess on the cross. And what does He want to get from doing all these. At some point i did ask such question... And it all boils down, in Who our God is...in who He is.

But if you didn't ask the same question as David, in some point of your life on earth then there's something wrong with you...with your spiritual life that is. And that is another story you need to fix and fast. You need to go and get to know God and hear His Word to have faith. And by understanding it fully, you can then read this... I read once in a book that God is a God centered God... Ofcourse it is not to be compared with the saying, a man centered man - worldly speaking it can be said, selfishness/selfcentered. It can never be compared, why? Because man is an imperfect being and God is perfect.

I learn thru that book and writer, Pastor Piper, and have believe in it also, that God is indeed a God centered God because apart from Him are all unworthy/unrighteous/hell leading traits... Because God in Himself is goodness, hope, peace, joy, love and life itself just to name a few.

If God wasn't who He was, we wouldn't have been here today learning about His Word. We wouldn't have asked that question in the verse in the first place.

In 'who He is' alone is worthy to be praise... Him alone is worthy to be glorified, the rest about what God did are just extra.

We are so blessed to have had a God like our God. I hope & pray we all realise that fact.

God saved us not just because we are created in His image and likeness and that He loves us, rather He did it for Himself... For His glory... And that just who He is! He is love, peace, joy, goodness, the salvation and the love. I know this is somewhat hard to comprehend at some point. But at the end of the day its all about God...about Jesus and in who He is.

Life is not about us, its about the One who created life... The Giver of life.

To God be the glory!
