If there's no desire to please God, you can't please God
no matter how much moral obligations you fulfil as a religious person
instead, one may most likely incur the wrath of God

I read this article which puts it this way
Our readiness or our reluctancy to meditate upon the wrath of God becomes a sure test of how our hearts’ really stand affected toward Him. If we do not truly rejoice in God, for what He is in Himself, and that because of all the perfections which are eternally resident in Him, then how dwelleth the love of God in us? Each of us needs to be most prayerfully on his guard against devising an image of God in our thoughts which is patterned after our own evil inclinations.
The answer
Shane Barnard

I've tried more of me
and I've come up dry
trading You for things
things that go away

my happiness is found in less
of me and more of You
my happiness is found in less
of me and more of You

i have found the answer is
to love You and be loved by You alone
alright! alright! alright!

You crucify me and the world to me
and i will only boast in You
alright! alright! alright!

I'm so satisfied
at the thought of You
growing up in me
covering everything

my happiness is found in less
of me and more of You
my happiness is found in less
of me and more of You

You are, You are (loved by me)
You are, You are (You're loved by me)
You are, You are (You're loved by me)
You are, You are, You are

has Jesus become an accessory?

a name that appears alongside your family and friends
when you give thanks in good times
a name that you remember in troubled times

but a name that has no place in your life in between

like an expensive piece of jewellery
that only sees light during a special function or in your Sunday best
and then sits in the cupboard for the rest of the year

has God become an uncle agony?
that when after friends fail to meet that need
or added pain to what you seek

and then you turn to God
like a toilet bowl for relief

and flush down your anxiety
doesn't matter where it will end up to be

it's not your problem
it's the toilet bowl's

right?

has God become an accessory?

to God
are people your accessories?

like a lost ear ring
that you won't bother to look for it?
cause you can make another better one?

when it has a chip
you eagerly seek to mend it

no matter how many times it has pricked your finger tips
you won't go "damn ear ring"

no matter how ugly it looks compared to your glory
you love it

you defended and redeemed an insignificant me
with your life

yes, you love me
that you breathed life into me
that I am not some stupid ear ring
but in your glorious image

that doesn't make me an accessory
it goes to show how precious and dear I mean to you

and yet,
time and again
we treat you ike a lifeless God
like an accessory

I wonder how long your patience will last
when your wrath will fall

so God, teach me each day
how to live as you have intended me to be
not to worship you as something I've made believe

but God, reveal yourself clearly and accurately to me
so that I may live

Mao, are you adding your alias into your i.c.?

Will you sign your marriage cert like this? ;-)
The most important thing is not that you know Jesus
but that Jesus knows you


Matthew 7:21
"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
concerned about our attitudes towards God than the fear of men

the person who loves you most is the one who tells you the most truths
