*[g0.0D fRi.DaY]*...this week has been one of reflection for me ... about God's love ; Jesus's love for me ... for us ... and it'll just struck me how amazing this love is and how important it is for me now to please Him and love Him ... He's done so much for me ... He actually died for me ... for us ... i mean ... who are we to Him that He should this for us ? He knew us right from the start ... but we didn't even know Him , nor cared about Him ... and yet ... He did so much for us ...
i have so much to say to God ... how much i love Him ... how sorry i am for the times i'd sinned ... let my human nature take control ... and totally disregarded His feelings ... i mean ... though He is God ... He has emotions too ... He feels just as we feel ... He is our everything ... He is the beginning and the end ... He is the lover of my soul ... and my first love ... everyday ... i'm living by His grace ... under His arms of love ... He's so nice to me ... and has blessed me more than i can ever imagined ...
this week i learnt to be gracious ... i wanted to be gracious ... to be like Christ ... and never did i expect Him to test me so fast ... just on the day when i woke up ... suddenly having decided to be gracious for that day ... that afternoon ... my grace was put to the test ... and ... i did it ... i manage to let grace flow from my love for God into my life ... and ... it doesn't matter if the motto was chosen ... what matters is that i did what God wanted me to do ... everything that happened ... where i am ... what has happened to me ... my past , my present and my future ... are all in His hands ... and everything that happens ... God has a reason for it ... everything ... the tests you go through ... are to make you stronger ...
i thank God for all that's happened ... all the good and the bad ... for the pain i've felt is not measurable to the pain He had to go through on the cross .. the pain that i go through is nothing compared to that of Jesus ... and ... for me ... He paid the price at calvary ... all my life ... He's always been there for me ... looking after me ... taking care of me ... loving me ... He has never let me go ... He'll always be with me ... and i'm just looking to the day when i see Him face to face ... and just to bless Him with all i am ...
today ... youth fellowship was very moving ...
the question : " why is good friday good ? especially if Jesus died on this day ... "
well ... it's true that death is never good ... but Jesus died for love ... all He did was for love ... and He did it all for us ... that's what that makes it good ... He died for us so that we can be connected to God again ... that we can enter the gates of heaven and have eternal life ... that's why good friday is good ... that's why today is so important to me ...
i'm contented with all i have ... what more can i ask ? the love that i have is more than enough for me ... i have all i need ... and things that i don't need ... and all things by the blessings of God ...
yup ... that's all for now ...
thank you God ... let my life be an offering to you ... use it for your purpose ... cos ... i am yours ...love,
cheryn ...
