united by grace

funny how KD should mention unity again in menado.
what say you about this?

we are united as the body of Christ and because we have Christ as the head, the body should obey what the head say right? but sometimes, no, many times we don't! how come the body of Christ does not obey its head? It is just not right.

KD shared about how we were created not just as a human-knowing (i don't think such word exists, but let's use it just for the sake of making my point), but human-beings (now u see what i mean...). we should not just know the Word of God, well yeah it's good but not good enough since it doesnt fulfil our purpose of creation, we must be the beings of the Word of God, and that, can be achieved through doing.

it's like playing tennis. first you know the theory. then you have to keep doing it, as in practising, the you can be it, like, for example, roger federer. if you never do it and you give up from the start, you will never be it, like me (i learned how to play tennis once, can never hit the ball, even the ones i throw myself, then i decided that tennis is not for me :D).

lesson learned?
keep on doing and doing and doing until you can be the true body of Christ~
it's not easy and it needs effort, but hey,

"But by the grace of God i am what i am
and His grace to me was not without effect.
No, i worked harder than all of them
yet not i, but the grace of God that was with me"


we have HIS GRACE.
