Daily Prompt

What are you good at?

Everyone has something they are good at, and likewise, something they are bad in.  While counting your good, you must not ignore your bad – having the ability to change from bad to good is itself a good thing.

Everything works for the good of mankind: doctors treat patients, and patients pay doctors; farmers produce food to feed people, and people support farmers by buying their produce; parents bring up their children and expect to be looked after in return one day.   Like these roles, my good also serves a purpose for the good of others.

I recognise my good and bad sides.  My GOOD stands for:

Godly, Obedient to God, Observant of divine signs, and Devoted to serving the Lord Jesus Christ faithfully and honestly.  Faithfulness and honesty – both are the cornerstones for building good things (Luke 16:10).  May the Lord see me live out my “GOOD” as I follow Him.

The area in which I need to grow is my tolerance towards scheming people – for example, a false preacher on stage, or a believer pursuing their own glory rather than the Lord’s.  I could be slower to anger, more willing to pray for them, and keener to offer my advice.

To sum up my good and bad: I endeavour to strive for inward renewal day by day, and whatever I do, I do it for the glory of God.  Living with this conviction in my heart is itself a good thing to count.
