Heyy bloggers and anonymous peeps:)
Well yesterday I had worship team practice (a band that worships and praises God through music). And ohmy:/ much pressure and work the last couple weeks...cause I was annointed the position of leader for worship team and had to prepare a lot spiritually and physically.
Anyways, yesterday during practice we always share the word of God and just how we are in general :)
John Cho(the previous leader that's now graduated, so he only serves as a teacher for us) well he shared the bible verse -
Ezra 7:10
"For Ezra had devoted himself to the study and observance of the Law of the Lord , and to teaching its decrees and laws in Israel."
With this verse he asked us : are we reading the bible? Are we studying like Ezra? Do we know the true meaning behind everything of Easter and Christmas? And are we striving to know God better?
I thought...do I know God enough to be able to show and teach to others..? I felt I lacked many things in many ways but God has still put me up to the seat of being the leader of the team to help others know God...
Then John also said this... Imagine your best friend was at your house. Both of you fell asleep...but only you woke up to realise the house was on fire. Your friend is fast asleep...would you wake up your friend and get out together or would you save yourself and leave them?
At first I said, well of course I would wanna save my friend and myself!
But...what if they can't wake up? What would you do then? Things will be getting hotter...but you wanna save your friend don't you? You would do everything to save them, or run away saving yourself?
This can be compared to our lives. The fire is the world and we are a part of this fire until we die. There's no escaping death. But how can we be saved? Through Christ, the holy One! We as christians can help others to find God but first we must be saved ourselves and need to know God. But things aren't that simple...let me ask you a question;
Are you a Christian?
Do you only say this to sound religious and cool?
Do you know who Christ is?
And the big question; Are you saved?
Are you 100%sure you will enter the kingdom of heaven when you die?
Christians nowadays are the same as everyone. You don't see many 'genuine' christians around. Christian or not, they act the same around similar situations...
Even I do not consider myself a genuine christian...I am sometimes ashamed and do not glorify God in all things I do. I sin and act like others whom are not Christian. I judge others and do things I know I shouldn't ... :( anyways; from yesterdays discussions with other members of the worship team...decided that,
We as christians, and of the worship team should live our lives studying God and glorifying him with all we have. Offering ourselves as living sacrifices like it is written in,
Romans 12:1 NIV
"Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship. "
We should live our lives so people will be like WOW. This person really loves God and is Christian even when they eat or study. Being christians that will glorify him in all things we do,
1 Corinthians 10:31 NIV
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."
Well, so...long post but hope you enjoyed reading a little big part of my life that I enjoy doing. Giving all we have to God:)
Ohh and!!! I wanna share the worship songs that my worship team is going to do tomorrow :) some songs based on the theme that we shared yesterday:)
1) 주님 한 분만으로 (Only one with you Lord)
2) All to you (모두드리리)
3) 밀알 (Single Grain)
4) 오직 주의 사랑에 매여 (Only hold onto God's love)
Yeahhhhh anyways hehe :3
Leading tomorrow for church:)
Have a blessed day everyone!!
Take care and God bless! ♥
