ok this topic, is kind of coming from the 'ranting' i did.. on 'Is belief enough?' topic... and i was mainly talking to myself there.. so please don't get offended... but yes.. i was saying that i really want to do something for God, i want to devote my life totally for God, and i Want to do something NOW however, is it wrong to want this?.. because we are to be patient, so we have to wait, but does that mean i have to wait for God to tell me to help others... whic in essence would slow things up... (if you get my drift..) i know there is the whole thing about God being behind us, and we need his strength and courage, and knowledge on how to do things... but .... I find myself thinking that i am not doing anything good... i look at my life and say.. where are these deeds... yet, do we have to wait for God to help us? just some thinklings of mine... would appreciate any help/replies =] |

youre not suffering a lack of patience.. youre suffering passion and excitment which is good to have! there has to be a reason for that, to have it welling up inside you! you'll do amazing things for God, you just gotta remember that He has it all planned out and you just gotta ride with it!
and never ever underestimate the smallest gesture or the tiniest thing you do for Him; it may seem tiny to you but on a global and spiritual stage its huge

its reali gdgd that uve got such a zeal and a passion for God and that u wnt to do sumthin! n i dnr wanna be the 'parent like' person bt a few words of advice... Isaiah 40 v 31 "but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings as eagels, they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint." so its great that u wnna do sumthin, but jus spend sum time in prayer and over the Bible and wait for God's call and guidance. Better to wait and then step forward in the will of God with all that zeal uve got, than to go without God and get lost along the way without His guidance. Psalm 37 v 4-5 "Delight thyself also in the LORD and he shall give thee the desires if thine heart. (v5) "Commit thy way unto the LORD trust also in him and he shall bring it to pass." I think these verses jus further urge us to take it to the Lord first and foremost. Luke 24 v 49 "And behold I send the promis eof my Father upon you but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until ye be endued with power from on high." Acts 1 v 12 "Then returned they unto Jerusalem..." Acts 1 v 14 "these all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication..." Acts 2 v 1 "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come they were all with one accord in one place." (ref. to prayer again here) Acts 2 v 2-4 "And suddenly there came a sound from heaven...(v4)and they were all filled with the holy ghost..." We're all aware of the result of this day, 3000 souls added! I hope the above shows that basically wait upon God, wait for the guiding of the Holy Spirit, their will be a sound from heaven (perhaps not as dramatic as was here bt stilll God answers!) and you efforts will not be in vain if you go in the will of God!! Hope tis helps!!! Continue in you fervour and zeal and passion but wait upon the Spirits guiding...im sure the disciples were bursting to go forth and tell everyone what they had seen, but they waited for the HOly SPirits guidance! |
