Got a reason for God

noreply@blogger.com (Ranap Sidabutar) — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 08:05:00 +0000

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

(Matthew 11:28)

Got a reason for living again

Got a reason for laughing again

I've got the love of God in my heart

No reason to shy anymore

No reason to die anymore

No reason to cry anymore

I've got the love of God in my Heart

Sunday

I was all alone

Tuesday

I had my sins to a tone

Wednesday

I cried and cried

Thursday

I thought i would die

Friday

I started to pray

Saturday

I read my Biblle all day

But sunday Lord's heaven did part

I've got the love of God in my heart.

   How many times have we been loosing God in our heart? How many times we feel that we are so far away from God? Why have we done that? is it because of something bad happen to us? have you ever felt our heart is empty, frozen, no spirit, no fire, and nothing inside ? Have we felat that we didn't know if we love God?

   Although we got all these conditions, don't you ever think why we still have power to do activities, although inside us was empty? Have you ever been cry in the night, or in the middle of crowded people because you feel lonely?

   We know that sometimes we can hate God, but we can't hide it that we really need Him so much. He, the one that can give us life, breath, warmness, smile, and everything. Everytimes we got angry, we throwed God away from our heart. we through away the source of our spirit, smile, power, and our life. We are dead inside.

   For the people that are hurted, there is always a reason that we got our life back. and the reason is God. He is the source of our life and soul. He do love us although we've betrayed Him for many times. He really want to go inside us, and gives us life, his spirit, so that we can laughing together with Him again.
from the songs above,

   We know that every step of our life, there will be so many problems. so many problems that make us far away from God. But he Promises to stay and wait until we come back to Him, and living inside us, giving us warmness, smile, spirit, life that we can get from noone. He want us to walk with him always to an unless happiness, to His House that He's created personally for us

May God bless us
=)

Bea a winner with faith on God

James 1:1-8

Because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
(james 1:3-4)

But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
(James 1:6)

Have you ever been angry during te rush hours? will you angry when someone cut your turn in a line of queue? or what will you do if suddenly there is an accident happen to you Parents? Or what if somehow you get fired from your company because someone had cheated you? or what if al of bad things like all above suddenly come to you in a row? We could get crazy of course. Living in this world is not as easy as we thought. there is no life without problem. but in this case we must learn how to face it.

In today's bible phrase, we se that the testing of our faith develops our perseverance, then we'll get mature and complete. It tell us that in our life, our faith will be tested for many times in many ways. each time we pass a thes, there will be more coming wait for us. Why God let us so? Why such a good God give us so many problem? No, God will not give us test, but he let the evil to give us the test. But he don't let the demon to give wore than we can. He just want to know if we remain faithful with Him, and love us so much.

Many of us sometimes get impatient and mistaken God. This makes of course the devil happier. that's not what want. He want us always stay with him whatever our condition is. Each time we get tested, it will be easier for us to get angry with God. It that what we should do?? Ablolutely never. never we should dissapoint God. Rely on Him,peace with yourselves. It seems easy right?
but how? ask for wisdom to God. Ask Him with faith not mouth and logic. Trust Him. Fully rely on Him. God didn't promise that this life will not be easy, but he promised to stay and be with us and bee our guardian through stroms, problems in our life. Use our faith to ask for wisdom. And sure we will be able to walk in every conditions in our life if we do it all together with God.

It's not easy to hold our faith tight. But it will be more easier if we surrender our heart and soul to God, and let Him work for us. Keep his promise wwith full of faith and sure he'll give us what he had promied that are perfectness and happines with Him.

God bless us. :-)

God's plan

noreply@blogger.com (Ranap Sidabutar) — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:18:00 +0000

In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.

(proverbs 16:9)

There are so many thoughts of us which surrounded our mind everyday. Think a plan, what the best for our future is, and there are still much more. "God, please be my guide, i can't do it all myself " pray a man. We let God take the opportunity to take our plan, our life, and our future. When we think logiccally, it's imposible or it's will be hard for us to believe that God could give the best to our success. There will be a lot of problem in our life that persuade us that God do nothing.

Here is a flash taken from
donghaeng.net that could be an example to us that it's hard to trust God and to know that He's done so much than we could think.

God as our guide. That is the main purpose of these bible text. We as Human don't know what the best for us. We just know what the best is only with our vision. But God's vision is far away through our vision. His plan is godd for us and it's beyond our thoughts. At first we may be not sure about His work, at beginning we may feel difficult to believe. Every plan has it own step to reach success. With God's plan it may be difficult to trust, to wait, and it makes tired. Our mind in flesh take cover our faith in God. now it much stronger that our Fait. Then we get angry with God. Then de evil take this chance to make us not to believe in our God. Never let these demons take our faith. Don't give him a single chance. Because if you hear demons, it'll be hard to back to God. If we have no faith, how could God give us his unbelieveable plans to us?

Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

(matthew 7:7)

So, so hard you think of your plan for yourselves. Let God determines his way to you. His plan is much more beautiful than your plan. His plan is more promising than our plan. His plan is far beyond our plan.

May God's plans happen to us all.

God bless you.

He stay with us Forever

noreply@blogger.com (Ranap Sidabutar) — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 18:54:00 +0000

And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.

(isaiah 46 :4)

How many times have we remember God today? How many times have we thank for God's Kindness in a day? how many times have we pray to God today? how many times we feel that God'd called us today? and how many times we betrayed God today, yesterdey, in thie week, or even
these month?

There are so many Bless we got from Him everyday. Health, Power, Breath, Spirit, a good day, singing bird, fresh air, blooming flowers,and still much more. He bless and stayed with us everytime, everywhere, every second in our life. He is too good for us. He always smile and take care of us altough we don't care or even hate Him. He never betray us. He stay with us always and never left us behind.

He stays in front of us when the dangerous comes. He stays beside us and hold our hand tight to make us feel that we'll never alone. He stays behind us as a pair eye to see the dangerous things which come toward us. He lifted us up when we have no power to walk. He hug us to say that he love us so much. He stay with us everytime. But how is it with us? How many things have we done for Him? just se ourselves in front of the mirror and say what things have we done for him? or let's say how many times have we betrayed him? and compare them. Perhaps we do more the last question. Me too as a writer.

But see in Isaiah 46:4 (And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.) He loves us more than we think, He love us altough we have betrayed him many times. He do love us more than we love Him. He made His promise to take care of us till we leave this world and till we meet Him in the Heaven. It's now just about us if we want to recieve his Bless and Promise to us, or we stay betraying Him and refuse his promises to love and to save us. He's too kind of us. He loves us. He never have a bad idea about us. We should make Him happy too. We should thank Him to, whatever our conditionss are He promised us to help us get through them all. He hold us tight.

now just ask ourselves, Do we love Him?

May God bless you all.

May God give you grace, smile, spirit, and warm in the strom of your life.

He loves you more than you can imagine,

He loves you more than you can think,

He have planned so much more than you could plan in your lifes.

Let's give our heart to Him,

Believe Him, and we'll be brought to happiness.

Thanks God for your thoughts, plans, and promise to us.

Stay in our heart and bring us to Peace that bear from You.

We love you

from your lovely Children,

:-)

Amen

Be Patient, God always have the right time

noreply@blogger.com (Ranap Sidabutar) — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 17:46:00 +0000

(Psalm 37)

Commit your way to the Lord; trust also in Him and He will bring it to pass.
(Psalm 37:5)

A boy pray all day to God, "My lovely God, please give me a job as a engineer, i really want it. I've graduated since 4 years, but I've never got that job." he tried it for many times, but God seems doesn't give him any answer.
A girl pray for hiss Granpa "God, please give my granpa more time to us,.. I don't want him leaving us. I really do love him". After She prayed then her Granpa passed a way.
A Father pray for his Family" God, I was fired today from my company. I've worked for many years there, because i don't want to do corruption with do? how can I feed my Family, How can I be a good leader in my Family, why should this happen to
me? Are You really exist?"

There are so many prays from us, to our God. When something bad happen to us, most of us say "WHY?". If our wish is not done by God, we say "Don't You listen to me?" "Why don't you hear me?" "why don't you give me answers although it is a single short answer?" " Are You really exist?" "Why you leave me?".....

These words make God hurt of course. God do hear our pray all the time. every single word, every single wishes and hope. If there is nothing happen it doesn't mean that God won't listen to us. He do losten to us, but THE ANSWER is not always "yes", But sometimes "not yet , or "It wont be good for you my child, I 've planned much better than than. could you please wait a little??"

We as human sometimes impatient with our pray, we don't see that God answer all of our prays because we always pray for us, we forget to pray for Him.
There are 3 main point here
We must first seek Him, pray for Him, do for Him, after that do and pray for us.
Second we must be patient that He will give us more than we thought at His time, not our time.
Fully rely on Him, keep our faith. Don't loose it. it is the main key. because, if we don't trust him anymore, why would God trust His bless to us. He do really loves us and always plan and give the best for our life. just could you keep your faith on him tight?

Don't worry

noreply@blogger.com (Ranap Sidabutar) — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 15:58:00 +0000

(Matthew 6:25-34)

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:34)

We as a human must have our own experience, it could be good, happy, sad, or bad. Each of these experiences take their own place in our life. Let's us maybe see our bad or sad experience. Sometimes we are tempted to see our past. The past full of anger, hatred, and our unfulfillable wishes we couldn't achieved. Then we say " if that time I could ...". Sometimes we see to much to these unfulfillable wishes. We think as if every door of chance are closed for us. Because we pay to much attention and worry to our future because our past, we don't see that God has opened so many door for us. Because we worry to much of our life, and we are afraid that those bad experience will happen to
us again, then we live our whole life within these fear.

God through Matthew says that we shouldn't worry about what happen to us tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Tomorrow have it's own challenges, problems, that we shouldn't worry about now. It'll come tomorrow. Then why should we think about it now?
Then there are words says each day has enough trouble of it's own.
we shouldn't see to much on our past. We can learn from it. don't worry that those bad things will happen to us again, but because we have already experienced it we can learn how to face it when we must face the same bad things again.

Experiences is always be the best teacher. We learn a lot from mistakes so that we could be true. Use our experiences as a stairs to go to the next level of our life. God has planned the best for us. He want us to be a better person than before. Today is better than yesterday. Just fully rely on Him, our almighty God.

May God be with you
God Bless us all
Amen
