Trying to be a Light unto the world.

Words

Sunday, June 8, 2008

Words are very important and strong.
God created the Earth with words, "let there be light, and there was light"
So every word that comes out of our mouth, lets use to pull someone up and not to pull someone down.

Simple words like, fool, idiot, loser, etc... can pull someone down.
Some of you may think, must get use to it mah, next time grow up will have this kind of things in the world.
Yes that is true but lets not follow the ways of this world!
Some people come to Church for healing, and imagine if someone comes up and cast down words of discouragement upon that person, how do you think that person will feel?

Friends are the reason why people backslide and why people come to Christ.
Lets go there and be a friend and help those hurt ones!

I remember Pastor Joyce once said that if we hurt others its like hurting God.
something like that..

In whatever we do, lets know our limits although at time we may go too far but lets try our best to know our limits to a joke, etc...

I'm not trying to shoot anyone here, but as a friend or a brother in Christ, I want to create this awareness to you guys out there.

This song has helped me quite alot. Do check out the lyrics and listen to the song :)

Oh,what I would do to have
the kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is,
And he's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name
and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh, what I would do
to have the kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant
with just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound
of a thousand warriors
shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out
my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
time and time again
"Boy you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
the voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

but the stone was just the right size
to put the giant on the ground
and the waves they don't seem so high
from on top of them looking down
i will soar with the wings of eagles
when i stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
singing over me

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says do not be afraid
And the voice of truth says this is for my glory
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe)
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the voice of truth
I will listen and believe
'Cause Jesus you are the voice of truth
And I will listen to you.. oh you are
