Lesson about God: Precision

Precision in Details, with sense.

Exodus 25, 26
it's pretty amazing to see how God gave exact details to the things he'd like to see it done. I wonder if the people back then would make mistakes, careless or sloppy, in the process of building the things as required. How would they be 'punished' or expected to fix the mistakes?

Having thought all these, if we human beings are created in the image of God, wouldn't it make perfect sense that we are designed to do things with precision. When we like certain food for eg. We'll like it done in a certain way, served a certain manner and presented in a certain way..

The problem in us, is drawing the limit (in being sensical) and the actions we take when realizing that our requirements don't go as planned.

Knowing it's a human problem with a godly design, I realize the need to be precise, as part of the design, yet understand the human limitations in consistency. I have yet to come to terms with laziness though. Is it the bi-product of our productivity and efficiency? Because laziness do have a direct impact with the desire to being precise...

Learning about how to be a good person

"No good man ever lived long, and no good man ever lived a good life."
- By all the bad man in the world.. :)

Do we all agree with this statement?

I had a hang-out session with my group of friends and they were all chatting about how they were mistreated at work by nasty colleagues and whenever they try to do something good, something bad always try to get in the way to affect them. Is that something similar in your life?

So the question is, will you stay 'good' or be 'bad' so that you won't be taken advantage of...

I reckon that we live in a cruel world. In this world, we learn to live life the hard-way. We have to work hard to earn money, and in doing so, every meal we have on our table is hard-earned. Does it pay well then to be a good man?

I am not trying to be negative, however, it is a real question to all of us who desires to do what is good and yet find it so difficult to live a life like one.

Even Jesus had to go to the cross and die for our sin as a sin-less man....
