great to know that people like Charlemagne contributed a lot to the
preservation of the Roman Church, and especially for the expansion of
the gospel to the invading German tribes. I'm glad to know that
God has used even this kind of people to fulfill His ecclesiastical
plan. “Iconoclastic Controversy” which means “image-
destroying” is another new thing to me and it is really good if
this continued to the life of all people before. If there’s just
nothing that changed within the churches which corrupted the mind of
those people then probably there would be no worship of images
nowadays.
I
remember when I was still very young my whole family planned for an
out of town trip for some special ceremony they said. We went then
to a place and a certain church where known to have different kind
and names of images which they believed are divine. This made me
remember of my Lola and other relatives. Should I just wait and do
nothing for them to hear about the true Living God? I felt guilty
just to think and believe that God has His perfect time to change my
family and relatives but I’m actually doing nothing. I’m so
blessed that I already have Jesus Christ in my life as my Lord and
Savior but I need to share this blessing to the rest of my family,
relatives and other people too. Not sharing this blessing is an act
of selfishness and I feel sorry to the Lord for not doing this to
them. I should do this before everything is too late for them to
hear and know Jesus especially for my Lola who’s getting older and
weaker now.-----:’( Please help me Lord to reach and patiently
share to them the Gospel like how You patiently love me. I know You
have a very special plan for them.
Praying
for them is the best thing that I can do as of this time. I should
always think that God loves them so much and they also have the right
to encounter Jesus and experience His love. I must find ways to
communicate with them and stay connected so I can have a chance to
share Jesus to them anytime. I must not give up instead I must
patiently do this because this is what God wants me to do. I must
sacrifice myself because I already have experienced God’s
sacrificial love for me. Though its hard I know but I must endure
through the help of the Lord, by His mercy and grace things will
happen. Nothings is impossible to God I truly believe that.
