Let's Honor Him

It has been awhile since Jon's last post. He must be tired. He must be troubled. He must be in deep thoughts. He is awaiting for someone. He is waiting on the Lord...

Indeed it has been almost 1 month since his last post. A lot of things has gone by. A lot of things to comment, yet something is withholding him back. He knows whatever he says there will definitely be a "ripple-effect" affecting everyone around him. So instead of speaking, he listens. Then he pray. Then he seek for answers. And he manages to find peace. All in 2 verses like these:

Philippians 3:7-9 (NLT)
"I once thought all these things are important, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done. Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I may have Christ and become one with him."

Romans 14:7-9 (MSG)
"None of us are permitted to insist on our own way in these matters. Its God we are answerable to - all the way from life to death and everything in between - not each other. That's why Jesus lived and died and then lived again: so that he could be our Master across the entire range of life and death, and free us from the petty tyrannies of each other."
