HIDE AND SEEK
It is perceived that God is playing hide and seek with humanity as men have been constantly seeking God but couldn't be found. God cannot be found by the terms of seeking men.
It was actually men who has been playing hide and seek with God as God has been constantly seeking men but many couldn't be found. Many do not want to be found by the terms of the God who seeks.
CONFESSION
Confession is part and parcel of the Christian life. If Christians really practice the private confession of their sins to God and experience forgiveness, it will naturally lead to the practice of the public confession of their forgiveness in God. It is suspected that why there is a lacking in the public confession of forgiveness in God may got to do with going through the motion of private confession of sins without experiencing forgiveness in God.
FIRST LOVE
Petra
Words by bob hartman
Based on revelation 2:9, 1 john 4:19, song of solomon 2:4
Sometimes I feel I'm pulled in so many wrong directions
Sometimes I feel the world seducing my affections
It's not that I don't know the way
It's just a heart that's prone to stray
But with my weaknesses admitted
You will keep all that i've committed
So I commit my heart to You my First Love
First Love, First Love my soul longs after You
First Love, First Love I want my heart to stay so true
Because You first loved me
Jesus You will always be
You will always be my First Love
It's taken me some time to try to comprehend
A Love that doesn't change
A Love without an end
A Love that keeps forgiving
A Love of sacrifice and giving
I delight myself in You my First Love
If I ever lack endurance
I remember Your assurance
That Your only banner over me is Love
If my heart begins to waiver woo me back my loving Saviour
Woo me back till I return to my First Love
FOUND AND LOST
As the reality that many were onced lost but now found in Christ, it is also true that many were onced found in Christ but now lost.
IDOLISED
When a Christian is idolised in the church, the sin can be corrected with the Word of God.
When a Christian is idolised by the non-Christian public masses in the Idol competition, how can the sin be corrected by that Christian?
THANK YOU
When a Christian had rendered his/her service in God's community, let it be said, “I/We thank God for your service in.....” knowing well that God is acknowledged indefinitely rather than “I/We thank you for ...” not knowing whether God will be fully acknowledged unless the person is mature to reply, “Thank God”.
