The Life Of Those Who Do Wrong Were Like The Grass That Will Soon Wither
Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Psalm 37: 1-2, NIV There are instances in life when we envy those who do wrong. We wonder why they receive so many blessings while we are trying to do the right thing and end up receiving little. This kind of feeling is so common nowadays. People focus on the ill-gotten wealth that others acquire, and it seems like there’s no justice for those affected. We can’t help but wonder if God is still moving in the…

When The People Around Us Experience The Consequences Of Our Bad Decisions
“Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.” Jonah 1:12, NIV Jonah was a prophet who once disobeyed God’s instruction.

Listen to the Voice of God and you will Grow
God knows you from the inside out. That’s why you need to consult and listen to Him. Sometimes, when we are too caught up with our problems and pain, we tend to follow our own understanding, thinking that what we have in mind is the right thing. We find solutions and make decisions according to our own judgment, not thinking that God is always sovereign. We treat ourselves as god and stop listening to Him. This is the reason why we experience so many consequences of our bad decisions. We chose our own way instead of acknowledging the instructions of God. Because of this, our ego became a hindrance to…

Growth Happens when you Reflect on the Consequences of your Decisions
There are events in your life that happened because of the decisions that you made. And unless you accept those situations as part of the outcome of your choices, then you won’t grow as a person. You need to acknowledge the results of your actions so that you will know the things that you can change in the future. The lessons may be hard to embrace, but if you keep on denying the things that you did wrong, then you won’t really see any transformation in your life. Be brave enough to admit the consequences of your decisions because that’s one of the best ways for you to be aware…

Do Not Be Tempted To Choose An Immediate Result Over An Eternal Impact
Life will give us a lot of circumstances that will test our hearts. Sometimes, when we are too full of negative things inside, we tend to see our circumstances in a smaller vision.

Why are you doing it in the first place? Are you after of the things that you can get? Or are you trying your best to do the…

And those people will also carry the consequences of your choices. Simply because they can’t leave you alone. Their love for you is just too big that they can’t bear to see you suffer, so they would rather face the outcome of your choices, may it be good or bad, just for them…
