today's thoughts
as i was listening to darrell giving thanks to God during gtf's praying & sharing session, my heart was filled with gratefulness to God. just abt 2 months ago, i was so disheartened when my bro said that it's so hard to trust God & he finds it useless to ask God for help. but today, m so glad tt darrell has seen God's power. darrell shared tt he was so desperate when he prayed & asked tt God would just let him get into a jc. but he thanked God tt God didn't only let him get into a jc, but also gave him choices. praise the Lord for being so real to my l'il bro. i pray that no matter wat, darrell's faith in the Lord will not waiver...
as darrell & i were walking home today, we passed 2 wakes gng on. the first one was really grand. this person prolly knew many ppl when he was alive. he had close to 20 wreaths lined along the sidewalk. but the other guy's funeral was a really simple one. barely 5 wreaths, and well, just really simple. darrell was talking abt them & amidst our l'il conversation, he mentioned "and sadly, these are non-christians". as we walked on, i tot to myself...yeah...one guy may have had a funeral much more grand than the other...but when they meet their Maker, won't they still face the same Judgement? aren't they both already in a place full of eternal sufferings & treated the same way?
sigh. i just really pray that those loved ones around me would come to know the Lord soon. i know for sure tt God is merciful, but He will not wait forever. but when the Gate closes, it will be forever.
"have you any room for Jesus, He who bore your load of sin?
as He knocks and asks admission, sinner, will you let Him in?
as He knocks and asks admission, sinner, will you let Him in?
room for pleasure, room for business- but for Christ the Crucified,
not a place that He can enter, in the heart for which He died?
have you any room for Jesus, as in grace He calls again?
o today is time accepted, tomorrow you may call in vain.
room and time now give to Jesus, soon will pass God's day of grace;
soon your heart left cold and silent, and your Saviour's pleading cease.
room for Jesus, King of glory! hasten now, His Word obey;
swing the heart's door widely open, bid Him enter...WHILE YOU MAY."
