The Heart's Cry

 

"Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." Luke 22:42:

I cry. My heart cries. I know that I am nothing without his will. I know that I can do nothing without his will. I know that I have nothing without his will. My worth is being in the will of God that I am designed for. If I miss his will, I will miss the whole point. If I miss his purpose in my life, nothing makes sense any more.

Your will is what I am just created for. I don't see the meaning of life without it.

The best thing out of the will of God is the worst thing that can happen to me. The worst thing in his will is the best thing that ever happened in my life.

I would rather die for your will than to live without it.

I prefer to be poor in your will than to be rich without it. I would rather choose to look weak in your will than to be strong without it. I would rather be foolish in your will than wise without it.

I prefer to be miserable in your will than to be happy without it. I would rather be an outcast in your will to be accepted without it.

Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked. Psalm 84:10

I would rather be persecuted in your will than to be appreciated without it.

. . . yet not my will, but yours be done. Luke 22:42

ነገር ግን አንተ የምትወደው እንጂ እኔ የምወደው አይሁን የማርቆስ ወንጌል 14:36

 

እግዚአብሔር ግን የታመነ ነው

 

እግዚአብሔር ግን የታመነ ነው

እግዚአብሔር ግን የታመነ ነው፥ ለእናንተም የሚነገረው ቃላችን አዎንና አይደለም አይሆንም። በእኛ ማለት በእኔና በስልዋኖስ በጢሞቴዎስም በመካከላችሁ የተሰበከ የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ አዎንና አይደለም አልነበረም፥ ነገር ግን በእርሱ አዎን ሆኖአል። እግዚአብሔር ለሰጠው የተስፋ ቃል ሁሉ አዎን ማለት በእርሱ ነውና፥ ስለዚህ ለእግዚአብሔር ስለ ክብሩ በእኛ የሚነገረው አሜን በእርሱ ደግሞ ነው። 2ኛ ወደ ቆሮንቶስ ሰዎች 1:18-20

አንዳንድ ጊዜ ሰዎች መፈፀም እንደማይችሉ ቢያውቁ ወይም ባይፈልጉም እንኳን በተለያየ ምክኒያት ተገደው ቃል ይገባሉ፡፡ ወይም ቃል የሚገቡት ቃል ባልገባለት ከዚህ ሰው ጋር ያለኝ ግንኙነት ይበላሻል ብለው ፈርተው ነው፡፡

እፈፅመዋለሁ ብለው ቢሆን ፈቃደኝነቱ ቢኖራቸው እንኳን ሰዎች ፍጥረት ስለሆኑና ውስን ስለሆኑ አንዳነበደ ጊዜ የገቡትን ቃል መፈፀም ያቅታቸዋል፡፡

ሰዎች ሰዎችን አይተው እግዚአብሄርን እንደዚያ ሃሳቡን የሚለዋውጥ አድርገው ያዩታል፡፡ እግዚአብሄር ግን የታመነ ነው፡፡

እግዚአብሄር ቃል ከገባ ይፈፅመዋል፡፡ እግዚአብሄር ቃል ከገባ ፈፅሞታል ማለት ነው፡፡ እግዚአብሄር ቃል ከገባ ፈቃደኝነቱም ሃይሉም አለው፡፡

እግዚአብሔርም፦ እፈጽመው ዘንድ በቃሌ እተጋለሁና መልካም አይተሃል አለኝ። ትንቢተ ኤርምያስ 1፡12

እግዚአብሄር ያሰበውንና ያቀደውን እንዳያደርግ የሚከለክለው ሀይል የለም፡፡

እግዚአብሔር ያሰበውን አደረገ፤ በቀድሞ ዘመን ያዘዘውን ቃል ፈጸመ፤ ሰቆቃው ኤርምያስ 2፡17

በእግዚአብሄር ቃል የተገቡ ነገሮች ሁሉ ተፈፅመዋል፡፡ እግዚአብሄር 100% ቃል የመፈፀም ታሪክ አለው፡፡

እግዚአብሔር ለእስራኤል ቤት ከተናገረው መልካም ነገር ሁሉ ተፈጸመ እንጂ ምንም አልቀረም። መጽሐፈ ኢያሱ ወልደ ነዌ 21፡45

እነሆም፥ ዛሬ የምድርን ሁሉ መንገድ እሄዳለሁ፤ እናንተም እግዚአብሔር ስለ እናንተ ከተናገረው ከመልካም ነገር ሁሉ አንድ ነገር እንዳልቀረ በልባችሁ ሁሉ በነፍሳችሁም ሁሉ እወቁ፤ ሁሉ ደርሶላችኋል፤ ከእርሱም አንድ ነገር አልቀረም። መጽሐፈ ኢያሱ ወልደ ነዌ 23፡14

እግዚአብሄር የተናገረው መፈፀም ብቻ አይደለም የተናገረው አይዘገይም ሁሉም በጊዜው ይሆናል፡፡  

ስለዚህ በላቸው፦ ጌታ እግዚአብሔር እንዲህ ይላል፦ የምናገረው ቃል ይፈጸማል እንጂ ከቃሌ ሁሉ ደግሞ የሚዘገይ የለም፥ ይላል እግዚአብሔር፡፡ ትንቢተ ሕዝቅኤል 12፡28

ከእኛ የሚጠበቀው አሜን ብሎ ማመን ብቻ ነው፡፡

ከጌታ፤ የተነገረላት ቃል ይፈጸማልና ያመነች ብፅዕት ናት። የሉቃስ ወንጌል 1፡45

Singleness is a Blessing

 

Singleness is a Blessing
Classifying establishment according to marital status is false teaching. And one of the problems of society is treating the single as a second class citizen. We have to stand with the truth. We can only survive standing with the truth and not against it.
For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. 2 Corinthians 13:8
Singleness isn’t incompleteness. Singleness isn’t a lower grade of life.
Singleness isn’t just a stage of waiting to be married. It is a special stage on its own. Singleness has an important place in human development. There are some things that can only be done by singles not married.
As marriage has its unique opportunities and challenges, so is singleness. It takes grace to fulfill God’s plane of singleness, and it takes grace to fulfill the purpose of God in marriage.
Singleness isn’t synonymous of incompleteness.
A person can be married and incomplete as much as a single can be incomplete. A person can be married and completed as much as a single can be completed. The completeness does not come either by being single or married.
Completeness comes by understanding self and knowing how to live with it. It is an understanding of self and knowing how to relate with others.
Dr. Myles Munroe in his book Single Married Divorced explains that Adam was single and complete before he got married. Adam was not desperate to be complete by Eve. Instead, Adam got married because he was complete and had something to give. Eve got married because she was complete and had something to offer to the marriage. Adam and eve were complete and got married because of that not towards completion.
He further explains that marriage doesn’t make one complete.
One isn’t married to completion. Actually completeness is the most important qualification of marriage.
One must know how to live with himself before he lives with another person in love. One must know how to understand, respect, and love himself before he understands respects, and love others.
One must know how to be a son and a daughter of God. He or She must know how to receive from God. The person must know how to believe God. One must know how to hear from God. A person must know how to relate to his or her father God.
One must be complete before he or she gets married. Marriage isn’t a union of two incomplete people trying to complete each other. Marriage is the union of two complete people.
Not only completeness is the most important requirement, but the effectiveness of the marriage is also directly proportional to the completeness of the individuals.
He must leave his father and mother to be complete in him-self before he unites with his wife in a meaningful and fruitful way.
That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh. Genesis 2:24
Even after one gets married he or she must keep their "singleness". They both must keep their completeness. An unhealthy dependence on each other is a sign of lack of boundary and a cause of abuse.
What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not; 1 Corinthians 7:29

The Art of Love

 

The Art of Love

Love is the art of understanding and identifying ourselves with them.

Love is identifying self with the loved person in understanding; Love isn't about you but the loved one. Love is accepting the friend unconditionally; Love takes to open our minds to different people. It takes amusement about how different and wonderful the other creation of God is. Love always trusts.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:7

If we put everyone in the same category and judge them in the same way, we are incapable of loving others. We need to understand everyone as if we have never known human beings. It takes a customized approach of understanding towards every one of them. We can't judge everyone in a "one size fits all" approach.

The true color of love isn't known in the "Valentine's Day" atmosphere. Love isn't known in the day of "bed of roses"

If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength! Proverbs 24:10

Love is tested when the receiver of your love are at their lowest. It is tested when the friend needs you the more than you need them. Love is tested when the loved is moody. Love is tested when the loved looks not happy in anything at all. Love is tested when the loved doesn't see your benefit. It is tested when the loved think they are fine without you. Love is tested when your presence looks a hindrance instead of a blessing. Love is tested when you don't feel like talking to a friend but you have to do it to avoid a communication gap. Your love is tested when you don't feel welcomed but it is the right thing to do to be around. It is tested when you feel like giving everything and receiving nothing. Love is tested when you don't see hope in the friendship and contemplating giving up. It is tested when you have to overlook the mistake of the loved one once again. Love is tested when the loved one complained instead of being grateful. Love is tested when the loved one suspects your intention to be impure. It is tested when your friend doesn't understand where you are coming from and understands the same thing differently. It is tested when you have to wait longer than you expect.

There is a season of sowing and there is also a season of reaping.

No one is strong in every area of life. Every weakness has incredible strength behind it. I have never seen a strong person without unexpected weaknesses. We enjoy an area of the person’s life, gift, and talent and bear with the other area. Weakness is the call of covering it to enjoy the strength. It takes wisdom to overlook the person’s weakness and not be discouraged by it. It takes wisdom to see to the strength beyond the weakness. It takes wisdom to have patience in the season of weakness to enjoy the time of strength.

Love is the most rewarding investment. It works every time. Love doesn't fail.

Love never fails 1 Corinthians 13:8

Love has a 100% success rate. The dumbest persons on earth can know when they see one. The most ignorant will recognize it. Love is original. Love is not made counterfeit.

Love comes only from God. It is the greatest undeniable testimony. When people see the love they can't help but praise the Lord who is the source of Love. When people see the love in us, they will definitely be encouraged to love others including us. One of the most important human needs is to feel safe. When people see our love for them, they will feel safe and will be comfortable to give themselves to us to others more.

It takes the love of God poured into our hearts to enable us to accept one of his wonderful creatures as they are. It takes to support them at their level without changing them. It takes to add value to them without criticizing them for who they are. It takes bringing the best out of them by refusing to be distracted by the negative. Help them to be the best they can. It takes to accept them without comparing them with someone different from them. It takes to focus on what you bring to the relationship instead of what you get from it. It takes to focus on your responsibility to the relationship instead of on the benefit out of it. It takes to go the extra mile to meet them when you feel they have to come and apologize. It takes to take responsibility for what you would have done better when the relationship goes wrong instead of the "it is all the friend's fault" approach. It takes sincerely asking "did I contribute anything to the problem?" It takes continual learning and promising to be a better person.

LOVE IS POSSIBLE

 

LOVE IS POSSIBLE 

Love is developed in wisdom and understanding boundaries.

And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, Philippians 1:9

People sometimes complain about the reality of love, when they don't understand the boundary side of it. They even doubt that true love is actually possible. The person who doesn't understand boundary and when to stop will soon give up and can not be effective in loving others.

God also has boundaries in loving us. He doesn't give us everything on the first day of our relationship with him.

 God himself expects . He only gives us as much as we are faithful to him from time to time.

Jesus replied, "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. John 14:23

To really grow in loving others, you have to know when to say no and when to say yes.

The holiest person who lives on earth had his life principles including the principle of setting boundaries.

Even the love of Jesus has boundaries. Jesus wasn't easy-going. Jesus was not pressurized to do something he was not willing to do. Jesus had all the freedom to say yes or no depending on his conviction. Jesus had all the freedom to say yes or no depending on his conviction.

Jesus, knowing that they intended to come and make him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by himself. John 6:15

Our lord Jesus Christ taught the disciples to have boundaries in loving and serving others without which they don't survive in loving others.

"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces. Matthew 7:6

Love isn't loosing yourself. It is finding yourself and reaching out others as much as possible.

You don't love others at the cost of loving yourself. True love isn't loving others abusing yourself in the process.

Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers. 1 Timothy 4:16

Love is giving to others. Even in giving there is boundary. It is only what you give cheerfully is a true giving. Giving under compulsion is mere religious activity. Giving without independence isn't true Christianity.

Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7

Even the famous love and compassion story of the bible teaches us about boundary. The Samaritan did everything he could to the person, and he was not willing to stay longer with the person longer. Instead, he went on to his business promising he would cover any extra expenses when he comes back. That is love and boundary. Luke 10:25-37

Setting boundary isn't the opposite of love but the understanding and one of the packages of it. Love is developed in understanding boundary principles.

That is the reason the Bible admonish us to be matured in mind.

Brothers and sisters, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults. 1 Corinthians 14:20

It isnt easy but it is possible.
