[01-01-2017] One More Year

Nowadays, I got used to my life with all the gadgets and appliances that make life more convenient than ever. Everywhere I go I always have my techies with me because I want to – not because I need to. It seems like I am not truly living if I do not have all these with me.

If I reach to my bag, I can have access to a lot of things like face powder, lipstick, gums, keys, especially money. These things make my life really stable and fun but I do not worship these things because they are meant to be used and not to be loved.

Some people forget about the more important things in life like going to Church. They spend more time facing the computer and surfing the internet for the whole day. They prefer reading scandalous magazines or watching pornography than reading the Bible. They tend to spend more time with their friends while drinking, than being at home with the family and doing a devotional.

A lot of things tend to get our attention away from God and allowing the devil to overcome us. We allow ourselves to be controlled by our manly desires and our technological advancement that we forget our own God who truly created us.

God is the maker of heaven and earth. From the book of Genesis, we can read a truly wonderful art exhibition where we get to meet the real artist from the very beginning until now.

Yes, we can continue to have all of our gadgets and money to make our life more convenient, but life is not forget the one true Maker of us all and all that we have now. Without him, we are nothing. We will not have this earth where we live without him. We are not living if he did not create us.


May we worship our God this year and give our 2017 to Him only.
