Go Deeper Into A Gospel-Directed Life
As gospel enters into our lives, it is like a yeast, working through our knowledge on all things, sensibility and will such that we can start seeing all conditions of our lives with a kingdom purpose, even the slightest matter of our lives such as eating, sleeping and talking to others. When Holy Spirit convicts us through the gospel we hear, transformation takes places from our inside, affecting everything on the outside. However, Satan is a thief that is always stealing the joy and assurance we have in God, so that we will remain disillusioned by the big and daunting things before us. But Jesus said "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Therefore, do not be deceived and continue to hold onto the truth even a little bit! Even when we have faith as small as a mustard seed, God will move mountains according to the truth we believe in. Instead of lingering in our own powerlessness, look upon the finished work on the Cross now and see how God has been helping you to this very day. Let it drive you into deep prayers and submit to the leading of God today. “To what will you look for help if you will not look to that which is stronger than yourself?” - C.S Lewis

Battling Inferiority, Indifference, Lack of Zeal
In this fast-paced society and highly demanding era, we are trapped in a system, both knowingly and unknowingly. What is this system? At first thoughts, this system seems to sound like laws and institutions. Yet if we inquire further, this system is in fact a godless and man-centric mindset, which very quickly develops into a disbelieving culture. As believers of God, we can be easily immobilized by such a systemic culture. We involuntarily subscribe to a certain way of thinking in this system of ours, be it with regards to merits, successes, achievements, problem-solving skills, etc. Such a system hurts the human soul and makes it grow cold. Consider, what happens to the fallouts of this system? They are constantly battling with inferiority (about self), indifference (about life), and lack of zeal (to do what ought to be done). May God open our eyes to this reality so that we can be sensitive to the needs of this era, and with that, relate the Gospel powerfully and relevantly.
