| | every now and then, there comes a point where we wonder: "wat's the point?"
sometimes it's life. sometimes it's work. basically, we're lost. everything's meaningless - ever get that? kat and I have this conversation aplenty.
I think Yeng hit it on the nail with her latest post - tt we forget the essence of Matt 6:33 "But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you."
SEEK FIRST. The greatest joy this life can ever give is a close walk with God. But no, I'd rather indulge in other things - but security of money, a "good" life a.k.a. nice house, good enough car, money to give kids good education. I mean, at my age, who doesn't think about these things?
But then, my good friend SW has been sharing on how work's eating his life away. And then you stop again, why do we bother piling in the hours. Sigh. I believe this is a lifelong wrestle. Necessary?
ADDED UNTO YOU. I guess when you seek God, you'd obtain a happiness that all the other 'goodies' no matter how pathetic or lavish, will merely come as supplements or bonuses. We wouldn't thrive on them nor suffer in their absence, knowing full well that we are whole in God.
This, is what we've come to know. But as we drone on day after day, it's obvious we never learn.
we're not very different from those 'stupid' Israelties back then. |
