Hello guys! I'm back again!
When you see this... you know it means another SPD sermon.
Well, it's good to reflect, right?
Last Sunday, Pastor Paccer shared about vision.
THE ABILITY OF SEEING.
We're talking about SPIRITUAL VISION here, not just physical vision.
When you think about this... Paul's Conversion, it sounds strange...
God had to close up Saul's physical vision so that Paul may start to see in his opened spiritual vision...
God appeared to Ananias in a vision too.
The main point is here. "Without vision, my people perish." ~Proverbs 29 : 18
It's kinda scary when you don't have a plan of where to go from here, right?
That's what a vision is for. Already, without a mental vision for yourself, you will not improve; what more for a life in Christ without God's vision in our life?
Maybe it's just that vision is a topic close to my heart, that's why I hit so hard on this point alone. Even so, it is very important.
I really agree with the hymn, Be Thou My Vision:
Be Thou My Vision
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.
It's simple, yet so true.
I hope this will keep it simple. I konw you guys out there reading this would have heard this time and again, so I won't stress it. I just pray that this gives you a new insight.
See ya around!
Gideon
