Every time I thought I'd do God a favor, I always regret it later, as a
bad decision, no matter how seemingly honorable or godly the
motive.
For example, when I bought the Mazda, I thought I could do God a favor
by buying the car from the guy, and he would somehow realize that
because I am a Christian, and I am doing him a favor, then he would
somehow thank God. The purchase ended up to be a foolish option
compared to doing a Christian brother a favor and buy a used Lexus from
him.
Looking back, I realize that the real reason for my decision was my fear of potential maintainance cost for a Lexus.
Whatever the case or the reason, now I come to see life as about wisdom
living, of making wise choices rather than somehow doing favors for God.
