last saturday during worship, Ps Ron asked all of us, "what would you say to God now?"i suppose many would tell God how much they love and adore Him, how much they thank Him and are grateful for Him in their lives. for me, i know i cannot stand before God and lie. i wished at that point i can tell God how much i love Him because i really do. i wished i can tell God how thankful i am for Him in my life because He has been so good to me. I wished i can tell God how much i know He loves me because i know He does. wanna make a guess what i told God?as i whispered my honest answer, tears streamed down my cheeks. i felt so ashamed that i actually thought God didn't care and didn't love me anymore. even though i didn't say it, i actually felt that God had abandoned me. and at the altar where i knew i couldn't lie, i only whispered and managed one word to God. "Sorry."i've neglected misunderstood the ONE person who matters most. :( :( :(How could i've believed that the Lord doesn't love me anymore?How could i've believed that i couldn't hear God anymore?"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. " -1 John 4: 7-12shall we count the number of times the word "love" appeared in the above verses?Jesus loves me this i know, for the bible tells me so! (and every sunday school kid will tell us so!)The Lord has heard me, and i've heard the Lord.
