I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live but Christ lives in me. The life I live in this body I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me. Galatians 2:20

Testimony 28/09/05: May Be It Is Playtime

My finger was running through the remote control when my eyes caught the image of cute baby animals in The National Geographic Channel. It was about animal play. A lion cub catches its brother’s back. A baby cheetah bites its sister’s neck. A baby chimp swings a small piece of wood. A young deer slams its antler onto his friend’s.

What playing is all about? It’s about practicing. It is like doing the little things before bigger assignments. It is like the exercise before the exam. It is like the rehearsal before the performance.

A lion would someday catch his meal by first taking hold of the victim’s back. A cheetah would someday suffocate its victim by grabbing its neck. A chimp would have to someday crack open nuts for his food. A deer would someday fight for a female with another male.

How amazing to know that God has made everything for a purpose. And He has allowed anything to happen for a reason too. So if you find yourself getting caught in a situation you don’t expect, or doing something you don’t fully understand, something seems so small and insignificant… well, may be it’s “playtime”.
