just now, after i reached home, i was so tired, i went to sleep..
at around 7, my mum started to wake me up..
my standard reaction is to still lie on bed, and say gimme another 5 mins..
but my mum went out of the room, just as i wanted to close my eyes to rest for a while, she came in again.. she did it like 3 times or so la.. den i was super pissed..
den i said, can u go out first, gimme 5 mins...
den she started scolding me.. i argued back a little, den i rmb the "when you're angry, the things u say will not be right.." so i just listened to her nagging and nagging..
den she started saying "fake christian" bla bla..
everytime my parents will just use this word..
i am so damn sensitive to the word.. when i hear it, i will feel like saying "wtf" and i will cry.. haha.. dun ask me why..
but i tolerated it..
i walked off to the kitchen,
i prayed to god..
wad make her have to right to say fake christian? wad is her definition of christian?
to me, genuine christians are those who have a personal relationship with god..
i started grumbling to god..
why aren't my parents strong christians? why am i not born in a christian family?
god said, it's for u to do some work in them.. like bring them to know christ.. isn't it my honour?
just then, i feel encouraged a little, but i am still angry..
so i took out "the NLT bible promise book" which i bought ytd..
i say, god, tell me wad to do..
so i flipped open a random page, the title is "anger".. woa!, sub-title is"when u're feeling angry at others"..
[ephesians 4:26-27] - "don't sin by letting anger control u" don't let the sun go down while u're still angry, for anger gives a foothold to the devil.
den i was like thinking.. why must the stupid devil poke me, and make me angry.? i wanna be christ-like , i try hard to be christ-like, but why must he stop me time and again.. it's so irritating la..!
den i continued, and flipped open another random page of the book..
this time is forgiveness..
[numbers 14:18] - the lord is slow to anger and failed with unfailing love, forgiving any kind of sin and rebellion
den i started thinking... these are characteristic of jesus.. i must follow......
