God is wonderful and marvelous. He has also been the subject of ridicule of many. I dont know what they are thinking, or whether they know exactly the consequences of their behaviour.
All I know is, God is gracious, and forgiving, He loves me, and has pulled me back to him..
As a teacher, I often have to think ahead, and start preparing for next year, i.e. 2012. And yes, I have thought of my theme song.
I hope this song touches your heart as it did to my. I did not do the animation, its done by one of God's beloved talented child.
Before I end, this is a short story i heard from a sermon.
In
a church, a pastor was preaching. He stopped halfway when he saw an old
man walking in. The pastor invited this old man to say a few words.
"Many years ago," the old man started, "a father, a son and his son's
friend went on a fishing trip. They were caught in a storm, the boat
capsized, and his son and friend fell into the sea. With only one
lifeline, the father had to make a painful decision.
He knows his son is saved, but his friend was not. He shouted to his
son "I love you" but threw the lifeline to his friend, and watched his
own son drowned. This is the Heavenly Father's love for you. He
sacrificed His own Son so that you may be saved, catch the lifeline
tonight." After speaking, the old man sat down.
After the service, a group of teens went up to the old man and said, "We don't believe your story, no father would do that."
The old man calmly said, "I knew you would say that. Well, I am that father, and the pastor is my son's friend..."
