For whoever will save his life shall lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. Mark 8:35

The world wants your best, but God wants your all.

many times.. we fail to give, unable to see the full picture, we were afraid to lost control of whats happening around us.

Man : God i want you to be in control of my life.
God : give me all your money.
(Man gives all his money)
God : what do u still have?
Man : You took all my money! all i have is my house and...
God : Give me your house
(man hand over the house)
Man : what abt my wife and daughter? how am i suppose to feed them?
God : give me your wife and daughter
(man hands over his wife and daughter)
Man : what are u doing? now i'm all alone and i can only sleep in my car!
God : you have a car??
(man hands over his car)
Man : look.. you took my everything. now all i have left is me myself!
God : thats right, i want YOU...

why do we complaints when God took away some small little things in our life?
things like benefits or even blessings from people.
some of our possession which might be important to us, but even more so to other peple.

that abt the poor? will our heart turn cold when we saw a begger on the street who have not been eating for days?
Will i give? or will i ignore...

Be a giver, not a taker.
