luck? or lucky? Blessed
Well.. yes, i can't sleep but more importantly, I've been pondering over the word "luck(y)", well... someone told me not to use it always, as though something else apart from God was causing the event, like not trusting that God isn't in control. In which i replied:

"Blessed, yeah i know... just feels a bit awkward saying it though.. like.. just doesn't seem to match the sentence"(slightly altered for readability)

After giving it a some thought, I was kind of disgusted of my reply. To think that it doesn't seem to match the sentence, sort of actually means that i feel that "luck(y)" FITS my conversation, my daily life, my way of thinking. Shouldn't I be using suitable words as servants of God? for words that we speak and actions we use in our daily life, reflect upon our walk with God and also the image of Christianity. Furthermore, I was wondering why some people seem to be so blessed, for I have seen the grace of God upon them, the gifts and blessings of the true servants in Christ. Maybe they are doing something else that I'm doing different? or wrong?

Perhaps i should further strive to be a better servant of God. "But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me." (1 Corinthians 15:10) That whatever grace of God has blessed upon me, I has use and not just laze around in my own "self-pleas(ing/ed)" world. I pray in hope that God's grace shall be upon me and that he'll preserve me, furthermore that i'll consistently acknowledge the fact that he is the one blessing us in our daily lives.

"The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies." (Psalms41:2)
