Art of Living #36





Åґ☂ ◎ḟ ʟ☤√ḯη❡ #36 : "He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end." (Eccl 3:11).
Ѧ℘☺﹩☂◎łḯ¢ €ϰ℘øüηḓ : I remember since my childhood I have always searched for real purpose and meaning in life. By the grace of God since my childhood days I have been taught about Jesus and how I as a sinner has caused his death. When as a young child of 8, 9...years when I was shown the picture of how people killed Jesus, I became so angry against the offenders that I wanted to beat them black and blue. But then when I told my Dad of how bad I felt for Jesus who was mercilessly killed by the bullies and evil men, he told me that actually it was not just the bad men but we too in our natural state as a sinner had unknowingly joined them in killing Jesus.
I was really convicted at that time and ever since knew that something in me is in rebellion to God who is full of love towards me all the time. Tears oozed out of my eyes the next time I saw those people killing Jesus, as I knew I was part of the offender who indirectly did it. This time I did not want to hate and beat these offenders but looked at the mercy of God shown to me and I wanted the same to happen to all the people who were part of the killing of Jesus.

What made me to look with a different eyes the same evil persons who killed Jesus? It is the understanding of the eternal view that was told to me, which I understood till it sank in to the depth of the recesses of my heart. True my dear friends, God has put eternity in our hearts. Until we touch in to that eternal view of God that is revealed through Jesus, no man on earth can ever grasp the reality of the work of God that He has done because of His everlasting mercy and love towards us all. While we were yet sinners Christ died for us and now it is up to us to delve deep in to that eternal reality and know the deep things of God through Jesus Christ our Lord. The deep things of God are the eternal things that God would love to reveal to us through His Holy Spirit if we are hungry enough to seek God while we are yet alive on this earth (Isa 55:6; Ecc 11:6-7; 1 Cor 2:9-10). Once we touch eterntiy tangibly through our spirit-man, we will be able to grasp the beginning to end of the world because it is not just a theory but the personality of God who holds it altogether and says, "I am ...the beginning and the end." (Rev 21:6). This is the reason the great French Mathematician, Philosopher and Physicist named as Blaise Pascal who lived during 1623-1662 A.D. beautifully said, “There is a God shaped vacuum in the heart of every man which cannot be filled by any created thing, but only by God, the Creator, made known through Jesus.”

So what is your pursuit in life? If you are in a rat race like the worldly people who think that they can fill that God shaped vacuum with woman/man, money or power, you deseve to be miserable as much as any other foolish person in this world system which has blinded them from knowing the purpose and meaning in this short pilgrimage on earth named as "life". When the true purpose of life and its meaning is found, life becomes abundant in all areas of living. This is the reason Jesus said, "... I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." (John 10:10). If you want to learn the art of living life more abundantly, lose yourself in God and you will find yourself more abundantly in all areas of life. When you allow God to enjoy yourself, God will allow you to enjoy Him in Himself. WHEN YOU DENY YOURSELF THE RIGHT TO ENJOY YOURSELF AND SACRIFICIALLY ALLOW GOD TO CONTROL YOUR SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY BY INVITING HIM TO LIVE HIS LIFE, GOD ALLOWS HIS HEAVENLY ABUNDANT LIFE TO BE ENJOYED BY YOU ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. He has made us beautifully in His Time so that we may find eternity which is hidden in our hearts, that we may also live life abundantly by knowing the beginning and the end purpose of God and find true meaning in our life. I have found my purpose, have you? (I invite you to read my Testimony to fully know how I have found my purpose, here is the link : http://apostolicrevelation.blogspot.com/2008/07/my-testimony.html).
