WHAT IS YOUR STORY TO TELL?

Friday self-reflection mode on this morning. Haha.Oh happy Friday by the way! (long weekend ahead!) yay.

What is your story to tell?

There are many different stories we hear in our life. We hear stories from the media about the latest happenings around us. We also hear stories from parents/grandparents about their past and younger days. Of course there are also stories about gossips of people around us, from friends and colleagues.

Many stories we hear in our lives, we have forgotten. 

But some always stay in our hearts. 

The woman who gave up her alabaster flask. 
Something that is precious to her for God... that costly fragrant oil. 
Everyone thought it was a crazy thing to do, but God was touched by her action. 
(Matthew 26:6-13)

It is said in v13 that, “wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her.”
God wants our stories to be heard.


So while I was in that reflecting zone, I was wondering-
If my life is a movie/story, is it exciting? 
Do I have a story worth watching/ telling? Or is there anything to be told?
Maybe it is a good story, maybe it's exciting. But does it enrich? Or is it just entertaining?
If it is just entertaining, it might be forgotten over time.

The woman with the alabaster flask story is of eternal.
What she has done is- His story. 

What is yours?

Let my lifesong sing to You.
