I'm Secure
Sunday, November 19, 2006
Today morning went to Jo's CG. It’s near my house, just a few blocks away. Thank God for that, I no need to wake up so early.
Still kind of tired, cause it's been so long since I last slept for long time. Still couldn't really recover fully.
Met Kel to go to the cell group together, we reached on the dot. Played some games before the cell group. I was quite fun, really enjoyed the game.
This is the first time I join Jo's cell group, it's really different kind of feeling. From the praise to the offering, felt that everyone is actively participating. Feels that everyone in the cell group really take ownership, and not just waiting for the leader to stir them.
We really spent time worshipping the Lord, really drawing in to His presence. I'm really blessed by the session, God's presence was so strong.
I really love to be in God's presence, I always felt secure with Him. I felt that I can take the whole world for Him. God's love is always unfailing, His love is like a rock, never changing.
IN YOUR HANDSHILLSONG
I'M SO SECURE
YOU'RE HERE WITH ME
YOU STAY THE SAME
YOUR LOVE REMAINS
HERE IN MY HEART
SO CLOSE I BELIEVE
YOU'RE HOLDING ME NOW
IN YOUR HANDS I BELONG
YOU'LL NEVER LET ME GO
YOU GAVE YOUR LIFE
IN YOUR ENDLESS LOVE
YOU SET ME FREE
AND SHOW THE WAY
NOW I AM FOUND
ALL ALONG,
YOU WERE BESIDE ME
EVEN WHEN I COULDN'T TELL
THROUGH THE YEARS
YOU SHOW ME MORE OF YOU
MORE OF YOU
Just find that this song really describe my heart now. Thank you God. I know the Lord is with me. I'm secure in Him.
Many times we sing melodies to the Lord, we sing the word 'forever'. yesterday night I was thinking about this word. What does this word really means? Worshipping God is more than just singing a slow song, praising God is more than just singing a fast song. Praising and worshipping God demands of your life. Out of your heart, from the bottom most of your being, sing out melodies to the Lord. And you meant every single word that you sang.
Yesterday been pondering on this word 'forever'. many people said, 'I will love God forever' but how many really did that? Many will sing that during good days, and when they are in the lowest pit of their lives, they long forgotten about what they promised.
Forever is never ending, there is no destination in 'forever'. forever is like a time line without a stop. How many really commit to that promise to God?
To me, forever means no matter what happens, you will commit to the same decision you've made. Your mind is always fixed on the promise, even when times your feelings does not agree, you will die to the same decision. Even when things seems to have turn the a dead end, you will still stick to the promise and not the problem.
Forever requires all the days of my life, every single breath I take, every thing that I do, I am committed to love the Lord.
Even when times I felt that I'm in total darkness, where my heart could no longer feel, see or hear, I want to stay committed in this statement that I've made; I will love the Lord forever.
It's always easy to say, but no many people really did that. I want to be someone that will be able to run to the finishing line.
I don't want to be like many people that choose to stop and quit. I want to run to the finishing point. I know the road is not smooth, I will get injured, get hurt along the way. But even if it takes my whole life, I want to run to the end. Even when times I don't have strength to run, even it takes all of my being to move forward, I will gladly do it. Cause I want to be committed to the Lord forever.
Even when there are problems that is bigger than me, even if it takes to takes courage and lower down my pride, I want to complete what God called me to do. I have nothing to lose, but everything to gain. I know that if I strengthen my courage and be bold for God, all my life will be blessed. I do not want to be somebody that cannot take up the challenge to serve God with all my heart, all the days of my life. I want to be like Jesus, committed to the end. I want to be like Jesus, whose love is never changing and is overflowing.
God, I want to love You forever.
