Verse 1Think about it. When was the last time you left the world to it's own, and entered a time of praising the wonderful name of the Lord, meditating on the Bible, or even prayer?
There is no height or depth
Neither life nor death
That can take me from all that I find
Here now in Your glory Lord
Verse 2
No other powers or love
The things of now or to come
There's nothing on earth in this life
That could ever separate us Lord
Pre-Chorus
Your love is never ending
To Your hands we surrender
Where all our sins are washed away
Your grace beyond reason
Has paid for our freedom
We're made alive in You
Chorus
We run to Your throne
Where we belong
Every heart will sing
That Jesus is lord
Casting all else aside
For the joy of our Christ
Let Your glory fall
Our hearts are filled with Your fire
How about worship? I'm quite surprised to find the secular definition of worship, according to Wiktionary matches what we should do:
worship (uncountable)
1. The devotion accorded to a deity or to a sacred object
What is devotion, then? Devotion is dedication. So, how can we accord our dedication to God?
Do you live a “peculiar” Chrisitan life, a life that calls attention to Christ alone? Is your life so distinct and remarkable that others look at you and see Christ himself reflected? Or have you allowed yourself to be worn down by consumerism, empty religiousity, and everyday routine?I think I shall stop here, as I see no purpose going further.
Tomorrow is National Day. I only have one question. When was the last time you honoured your country, people? When was the last time you actually sang along to the national anthem, the last time you really stood straight, the last time you attended a National Day celebration? As you live in this country, even though you don't like the ruling government, remember, we are born into this nation for a purpose.
Jeremiah 29:7 - Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper (NIV)I forgot who quoted this bible verse, I think it was my pastor. This is the response of the Lord to those, to pray for Babylon, even though Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon was the one who looted them (0r something). So, shouldn't we seek the peace and prosperity of the city, which the Lord has sent us to by sheer non-coincidence?
we were born here for a purpose, AMEN. and yea, pastor quoted the worse. "we will find peace if there is peace" pastor said something like dat. can't recall where's it from. [don't expect me too.]
