i can't describe how much joy there is walking close to God. (:
i've realised that when i'm walking close to God, He takes away all my hurt and pain and heals me with His love. then i have so much joy and peace that i'm happy no matter what happens. i can forgive, and i can love and spread His love too.
i can see the power of God working in my life!
and like what preacher lek said on sunday, God can take the most badly bruised reed and change it to be a powerful instrument for Him. (:
awesome isn't it!
DARE TO BE RIGHT
by J. L. Taylor
___________________
dare to be right! dare to be true!
you have a work that no other can do;
do it so bravely, so kindly, so well,
angels will hasten the story to tell.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
you have a work that no other can do.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
other men's failures can never save you;
stand by your conscience, your honour, your faith
stand like a hero, and battle till death.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
love may deny you its sunshine and dew,
let the dew fail, for then showers shall be given,
dew is from earth, but the showers are from heaven.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
God who created you, cares for you too,
treasures the tears that His striving ones shd,
counts and protects every hair of their head.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
cannot omnipotence carry you through?
city and mansion and throne all in sight,
can you not dare to be true and be right?
dare to be right! dare to be true!
keep the great judgement seat always in view;
look at your work as you'll look at it then,
scanned by Jehovah and angels and men.
dare to be right! dare to be true!
prayerfully, lovingly, firmly pursue
the pathway by saint and by seraphim trod,
the pathway that leads to the city of God.
