We normally change the system's default settings, para maging comfortable tayo sa gaming experience and computer work natin. To satisfy our needs, and make life easier...nga ba?
Tayong mga tao, we have our default settings din. Yes, really. Mag-biblical history tayo. Book of Genesis. God created man in His own image and likeness. Kahugis (image), at kawangis (likeness). We are created sinless, pero limited. 'Yun nga lang, dahil sa ahas na 'yon, lagot na. Naging punish-able ang tao. That's when the devil change the man's default settings into his pleasurable settings.
But God doesn't want His creation to perish 'til death, dahil aside from He is just, He is also loving. Kaya He sent His beloved Son, Jesus, our Lord and Savior to take us away from sin's bondage. How? By His stripes, nail pierced hands, and by His blood. Shortly, by His death and resurrection.
When we learn to accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and letting Him take control of our life, our old self (wicked self) has also died with His death. And our new life (the righteous, default self) has resurrected with Him. Kaya nga "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The OLD HAS PASSED AWAY; BEHOLD, THE NEW HAS COME." | 2 Corinthians 5:17 ESVIllustrating this by video games and computer settings, when we choose to click restore defaults, we will go back to the original settings. Now, when we choose to accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we're not just restored and default, but NEW. NEW as in BAGO.
So..I'll leave you with a question: Do you choose to Restore New Defaults and let God turn the knobs of our life settings, or still living on the earth and striving to walk on our own ways?
May God's wisdom and Spirit be on you to help you decide on the calling of God. Amen.
