come to the Father

as i listen to this song...

Before the world begin
you were on His mind
and every tears you cry
is precious in His eyes

because of His great love
He gave his only Son
and every thing was done
so that you will come

nothing you can do
could make Him loves you more
nothing that you done
could make Him close the door
because of His great love
He gave his only Son
everything was done
so you would come

come to the Father
though your gift is small
broken heart
broken lives
He will take them all

the power of the Word
the power of His blood
and everything was done so you would come

i still remember
we young people sing this song
during the christmas gathering
in order to ask the lost sheep come back to God

listen to the lyrics
and think about what the ODB said today:
"Blessed are the poor in spirit"
in God's perspective,
those who are poor in spirit are very blessed people
wondering why?
why God says suffering is good?

here are 4 reason:
(1) it helps us realise our ugent need for redemption
(2) it helps us experience our dependence on God and our interdepence with one another
(3) it helps us distinguish between necessities and luxuries
(4) it helps us respond to the call of the gospel because we may have become so desperate that we cry out to God

it is correct!
because only those who are sick, who need a doctor
same as
those who are poor in spirit, who need God and receive the good news

the poor, the hungry, the mourners, and those who suffer are blessed because their lack of self-sufficiency is obvious to them every day. they must turn somewhere for strength
in the other hand
people who are rich, successful and beautiful may go through life relying on their natural gifts.

but

people who are needy, dependent and dissatisfied with life are ore likely to welcome God's free gift of love....

so i thank God
for giving me suffering...
for let me become a poor girl...
for din making me a successful girl...
