His love

In Shepherd’s meeting…meetings where all the Shephers gathers. Haha..It’s also known as Cell leaders’ meeting. One of the leader was sharing about how much God loves us. It is not something our human mind or logic can ever understand. We might think we are not worth His love, but He says He loves us and period. We can never understand how great God’s love is for us. Not now, tomorrow or days to come. We can understand what we know today, how great it is now, but there is so much more!

Our value, our worth is not what we can determine. Our creator determined how much we are worth and we are priceless to Him. God himself would come down and die for us so that we can be restored to Him.

It is like a carpenter, who made a beautiful chair. Everyone is amazed at it. Day in and out, people will walk by it and praise the chair and the carpenter because of the beautiful handwork. Many days passed and people started to forget about the chair and how once it was so grand. Til one day, the people decided to burn it because it has become simply just an unwanted piece of wood. But the carpenter stepped out and said, ” do not burn the chair, burn me instead, keep the chair”. The chair is so much of value to the carpenter that he would die for it.

The love of God is so much more….He knew our value, our worth, that He choose to come and die for us…to give us a freedom, to save us from the fire, to give us victory in life!

When I think about it, I just cant stop thanking and praising God because of His great love. If you have not experience it today, or ever, just ask because God said, Ask and it shall be given, seek and you shall find! Today’s sustenance is only enough for today. For tomorrow, you will need to seek God for more. And everyday should be better than the day before!

Spending time with God, reading the word is food to your spirit. It is like us eating, we dont just eat once a week, right? We eat everyday because we will be hungry. And if we dont eat, we’ll be malnutrition and start to become anorexic. The same thing with our spritual life. We need to read the word everyday, pray and spend time in God’s presence. We do not just eat one meal a day to last us a whole day? Or once a week to last us for a week.
