Learn, Learn and Learn...

He who ceases to learn ceases to grow.

This is my own dictum learned from lessons of life learned in experiences. I have been so convinced and confirmed that I must be opened to learn and learn and learn; be it physical, psychological or even spiritual, I must learn and learn...

As I have been travelling and meeting different people of different tribes, tongues and traditions, there are many things worth learning. As I observed them, the Lord impressed me on certain matters to learn from them. It enlightened me in many aspects of life, and in many cases educated me. Even in the negative things I observed and learned not to repeat history.

Especially in spiritual matters, I have many things to learn; mostly on the negative side, not to be a part of or repeat the fallen and degraded sytem of Christianity. Even the Christian groups that I used to revere so much because of the strong testimonies of the spiritual leaders or founders, after their demises, they seems to have fallen too low to the extent of dividing up into pieces of independent assemblies. Only if the goal of spirituality is known to them in building up the Body of Christ, things would not have turned to be so ugly. Thank God, the Lord saved me from such system. And may the Lord preserve me purely for His Body.

Since yesterday I had a particular time of fellowship with a brother who strayed away from the Body life and ventured into the mire of religious Christianity for thirteen years and shared openly and frankly all the impurity and mixture in the so called "ministry", I learned not to repeat this negative history. However, there is no guarantee in myself that I would not be the same as such workers. I learn to depend on the Lord, trusting Him in His mercy and grace , to be preserved wholly and holy for the Lord's eternal purpose.

Thank God for the many testimonies, positive and negative, to learn from. Only that God continue to grace me to learn and learn and learn...

Not only in spiritual matters, but in physical things too; in the way we were given hospitality, the care and concern, the love and respect we received from different believers, how they manages their household affair, family relationships between husbands and wives, parent and children, education, job and marriages etc. Even in a down to earth things like household set up, office set up, designs and prints, I captured them on my phone camera. Yes, to study and review, or perhaps to improve from what was learned. I am so glad that I have the heart to learn, and much more, I enjoy learning them.

What a blessing to be able to learn and learn and learn.

Lord, keep my heart open to learn from You through all channels You channelled to me. That I may learn and learn and learn. Even, learn till my last breadth. That I may never cease to learn, and never cease to grow.
