O Glorious Divine Love

Ct 2:14
"Pomba minha, que andas pelas fendas dos penhascos, no esconderijo das rochas escarpadas, mostra-me o rosto, faze-me ouvir a tua voz, porque a tua voz é doce, e o teu rosto, amável."

Cântico dos cânticos 2:14 - Pomba minha

Come and rejoice with me, come and rejoice!
Lift up your voice now and come and rejoice!
In my distress I called out to the Lord
He answered me and delivered my soul.
From lying lips and from a tongue of deceit I'm free.
Can I enough rejoice? 
So come, come rejoice! Rejoice with me!

Come and rejoice with me, come and rejoice!
Lift up your voice now and come and rejoice!
No more a sojourner in vanity,
No more a wanderer religiously.
We've been brought back to Christ and to His economy.
Can we enough rejoice?
So come, come rejoice! Rejoice with me!

Let us go up unto the house of the Lord our God 
And let us give thanks to His name.
Our feet are now within your gates, O Jerusalem,
We're standing, we're thanking,
We're praying, we're praising,
Yes, praise ye the Lord!
Praise ye the Lord!

Come and rejoice with me, come and rejoice!
Lift up your voice now and come and rejoice!
Our eyes are lifted up unto the hills
The Lord, our Keeper, for all that He wills.
No one can snatch us out, from now to eternity.
Can we enough rejoice?
So come, come rejoice! Rejoice with me!

come and rejoice with me!

Dearest Lord, You’ve Called Us Here - Song

To the brothers and sisters who are in the service. 

There comes a time that while we are enjoying doing the ordained way of the God, keeping in touch of preaching the gospel, taking care of the new ones, and other services in the church, the world in some way will destruct us with some thorns and thistles (anxious thoughts especially of the future ahead of us) that may possibly choke us and put us down. But the Lord Jesus knows what are the things in our mind that leads us to anxiety. When such time comes, He will comfort and shepherd us. "I am your great provider"- this is His promise that will not meant to be broken. This is the shepherding from GOD.

Some time in our service, the burden will become heavier and harder, which causes us to be somewhat discouraged just like of what Elijah had experienced. But at the time that we realized that we are not alone, we will be encouraged again to continue the work that the Lord had bestowed upon us. We have the saints as our companion who will sympathize in our condition. They will lift us up and help us to fight the battle in front of us. The enemy will not prevail if we remain being "with those"! This is the shepherding from the SAINTS.

For us to go on in our spiritual service, we need these 2 kinds of shepherding- VERTICAL shepherding (from God) and HORIZONTAL shepherding (from the SAINTS). This is our STRENGTH in our service.

We are being SHEPHERDED in order for us to SHEPHERD others in a genuine way. This is our MIGHT.

Title: SHEPHERDED TO SHEPHERD 

1
In our days of serving
Along the path observing
Thorns and thistles comes along the way
Some time the world is calling
"I'm here for you, still waiting"
But the Lord will speak to us and say

"How are you my brother?
I know the world will bother.
Man, be reminded what are My promises."

Let go and let God
Let His will decide
"I am" the great, great Shepherd will provide.
His flock, your delight
Your enjoyment- fight
Shepherded to shepherd- 'tis our might

2
In our days of serving
Along the path observing
Toils and burdens comes along the way
The enemy is waving
To stop us what we're doing
But someone will come to us and say

"How are you my sister?
I know the work feels harder.
Hey, be reminded I'm here with you- be still."

"I'm here by your side
In good times or bad
I am your friend, companion- sympathize
Alone? you are not.
You're companionized"
Shepherded to shepherd- 'tis our might.

Shepherded To Shepherd

Inspired by RS's talk on healthy diet.
A thank you to JC!

Here are the words:
Don't want to shorten your course
Or reduce your time on earth
Don’t want to be so careless
with what you put in your mouth
Want to be kept for His purpose
Then dare not risk your health

Beware of evil whites
White sugar, bread, and rice
But white meat is better than red
The leanest ones, to be precise
And when there's too much salt
you should come to a halt

Watch out for those fried foods
And other processed foods
Which includes
That burger you love to choose
Though it is not a sin, we
say no to poultry skin
Especially, fried chicken skin

(Cause those fats,
Will clog the arteries,
Build up plaques,
And lead to heart attacks
I don’t think you want that)

Avoid those sugary drinks
Which are the worst to quench any thirst, when
on the brink of dehydration
What is the best for consumption, you know
is that delicious, satisfying, pleasant, and heavenly H2O

Don’t say, maybe not today
Don’t wait for another day
Start now, the habits will stay
What do you say? Okay?
