I had an amusing time at the lunch cluster cell meeting with the ladies at Tanjong Pagar this afternoon as we discussed about John 19 & 20 and some personal encounters and experiences. A topic cropped up about the story of Mary Magdalene at the tomb weeping, so caught up with her grieve, and did not recognize the existence and presence of Jesus with her. Sometimes, we are like Mary too – caught up with our personal agendas even when the Lord is close to us. We need to make a deliberate effort to recognize God’s presence, power and provision that is always available for us.
We shared that we needed to develop intimacy and dependence on God alone (as an individual) because even as a couple, you may be on one flesh physically, but our faith cannot be shared. It is a personal decision that we have to make and a personal walk with the Lord that we need to cultivate. Therefore, it is a good reminder to TASTE for ourselves, and see that the Lord is good. Ps 34:8.
