So the screw-it week was finally over and i get to have one week of "honeymoon" week! woohoo..
And this weekend is a really special and meaningful weekend. It is Easter weekend! Friday was called "Good Friday" which signifies the crucification (as in hanging on the cross) of Jesus Christ! He died on the cross for the sins of all His creation and risen on the third day. The Father in heaven sends him to cleanse our sins and to forgive us and gave us the oppurtunity to receive Him in our life.
John 3:16
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Everyone in this world have the right to receive him. It is a gift from God to us, to receive salvation. He is there to help us and guide us. He is there to lift up our burden and listen to us. He is our Lord the God who is forever living.
There are 3 loves that we will have in our life. But none of these are greater than God's love.
(1) Parents love - No doubt that parents are the greatest living being in the world that care and loves us with all their heart. But no matter how much they loves us, there is always a day when they have to leave us. Parents love are not eternal.
(2)Love of a spouse - When God created Adam, He made Eve from the bones and fleshes of Adam. That is why there is "men" in "Women" LOL. When a men and women unites, they become one. However, love is patient, love is kind. How many broken relationships has we ever witnesses in our life. Divorces are heard everywhere. Of course, God ask us to love our spouse and to honor God with their relationship. But the point is, it is hard to predict the love of a spouse! LOL
(3) Friends love - Of course friends are a essential part of a person's life. However, friends come and go. Good friend stays with you through hard times while not-so-good friend will not. They wont be there when you need them unless you have something to offer them. That is how this world ( at least majority) has become. Even a good friend wont have eternal life to love you and be with you forever.
God's love is eternal, patient. No doubt that God has wrath. It is because He loves us just like how our parents scold us when we do something wrong. The worst thing to happen is not when God wrath but when God abandon us.
Micah 7:18
Who is a God like You, who pardons iniquity And passes over the rebellious act of the remnant of His possession? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in unchanging love.
Tomorrow is Easter Day. The day when God resurrected from the dead. When he says that He can destroy the temple and build it in 3 days, He actually meant He himself. Amen! God has risen and He is back with the Father in the kingdom of heaven!! Wooohoo! Let us rejoice and have faith in HIm. When we confront Him one day, let Him praises us for being a faithful servant of His. That is the best thing that could ever happen! Amen to the Lord!
When Jesus was put on the cross, there are two other criminals who were hung beside Him. One of them defy Jesus while another, shown faith in Jesus. Because he trust Jesus , even when Jesus was hung on the cross shows how much faith he has for Jesus and therefore, at that moment, HE WAS SAVED!
Luke 23:41-43
23:41 And we rightly so, for we are getting what we deserve for what we did, but this man has done nothing wrong.” 23:42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come in your kingdom.” 23:43 And Jesus said to him, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.”
