 We were the reason Saturday, April 3, 2010, 12:02 AM
As little children we would dream of Christmas morn
Of all the gifts and toys we knew we’d find But we never realized a baby born one blessed night Gave us the greatest gift of our lives We were the reason that He gave His life We were the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live As the years went by we learned more about gifts The giving of ourselves and what that means On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain All because of love All because of love I finally found the reason for living It’s in giving every part of my heart to Him (every part to Him) And all that I do every word that I say (you know I’ll be saying) I’ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him (every thing for Him) We are the reason that He gave His life We are the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give (all that he could give all) To show us the reason to live He is the reason to live (don’t you know do you know the reason that he came, oh he came to save us when he gave his life for us) he suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave everything (everything that He had He gave) To show us the reason to live Don’t know how I could thank Jesus all that he had all.. Had service for Good Friday today. Was pretty tired :x Due to yesterday's over-flux of events. Example: Drowning Most people know what Good Friday symbolises. So I shall not elaborate much, because the lyrics of " We were the reason" by Avalon explains the sacrifice that Jesus has made for us. Imagine that amount of love Jesus has for us Will you be willing to be tortured, having a crown of thorns being placed forcefully on your head, carry a cross all the way to the mountain and being humilated in front of so many people? For everyone, I guess the answer is no, even if the world will perish if you don't do so. Once again, it rained at 3 sharp on a Good Friday. This shows how real and true God is. It rains EVERY Good Friday at 3. Because, 2000 years ago, Jesus breathed his last breath at 3. Today's sermon was by Pastor Tony & Tina. Pastor Tony talked about how the Bible from the beginning led to Jesus's crucification. Then at 11, We had a prayer seminar. Went for occasional toilet visits to keep myself awake because for some reason I don't want to sleep but my eyelids are just so heavy ): Coffee works wonders though! At the end, we prayed for an hour, and I didn't realise that the prayer went on for so long! I thought it was just 20 minutes It was a healing prayer. Hmm, had some tears splashing down my cheeks. I think Vivian and Priscilla too. Not sure about JLJM, because she was having a stomachache. Hehe. Pastor Tina prayed for my eczema because I requested for it in a way. It's amazing how she knows the struggles I go through at night. Like having to toss and turn on bed to keep my mind off the itch. I should work hard and stop letting little things get to me and make my emotions go all haywire. It affects my skin in a huge way when I go through an emotional turmoil. But my sufferings as compared to Jesus's, it's really,really,really insignificant. One day, I hope I would know how to really love a person till the point of sacrifice. |
