God’s Words Will Never Pass Away

God’s Words are forever up to date. It’s amazing to think that the words that have been there for more than 2000 years are still up to date until today.

Like what it’s written in Matthew 24:35, heaven and earth will pass away, but God’s words will never pass away. His Words will be an important weapon for us to deal with our daily life. (-fon-)

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
--- Matthew 24:35



Finding Light in His Words

Have you ever experienced a total black out? It’s when you can’t see anything for just a moment and then you begin to search for a torch, a candle, or even your mobile phone just to help you see temporarily until the light comes back again.

It’s uneasy to be in the darkness, you might feel hate it, dislike it so much. But, as I’ve experienced many cases of black outs in Indonesia, I don’t think it’s easy to avoid it.

What if our life is in the darkness? Will we feel uneasy, dislike it as well?
But the good news is we can find our light in Him, through His Words. No matter how dark our life is right now, His Words will be a lamp unto our feet, and a light unto our path. The Words are important and powerful. Never underestimate the power of the Words. (-fon-)

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
--- Psalm 119:105



I Will Sing of Your Love

Today, if you feel depressed and frustrated with your life, just try to sing a little bit of God’s love. Try to sing His goodness, try to praise Him with all your heart.

I know, it’s not easy. Especially when you’re so disappointed with your present condition. Then you might ask, “How could I praise God in this kind of situation?”

Well, praising God doesn’t limit us to do one thing. It might have a lot of options to do so. You can sing, you can write a love letter, or you can pray in an intimate conversation with Him, telling Him all your worries, as well as thanking Him for all the good things in your life. There must be something good to praise, there must be something beautiful to sing in front of Him today. Just look a little bit further into your life, you’ll be amazed of so many love from Him that you’ve missed. (-fon-)

But I will sing of your strength,
in the morning I will sing of your love;
for you are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
--- Psalm 59:16
