Sounds of my Writings: In Weakness

It’s ok, weakness is just a sign of our humanity. You and I don’t have to always be strong. It is what makes you and I vulnerable and in need of comfort.

There is hope in the midnight hours, knowing that a new day is dawning. Leaves come and leaves go, and just like the seasons; new memories, new flowers, laughter, and hope will spring up in us again. Let us endure, for joy does come in the morning!

Hope again, let it be said “all is well with my soul”. Psalms 30:8-12 10 Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me; Lord, be my help.” 11 You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, 12 that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent. Lord my God, I will praise you forever.

Sounds of my Writings: False Worship

Music was never designed to entertain the ears of man but rather to minister to the heart of God. One of the greatest and most precious acts that will be performed by the angelic hosts and saints alike is the ultimate expression of eternal worship.

Too many times, without realizing, we attempt to entertain and/or participate into sing-alongs that are designed to percolate crowds. Horizontal "kumbayas” can not substitute for the maximum expression of vertical worship. Minister to God and God will minister to you!

Be real, be sincere and God will hear and answer you! Luke 7:31-32 31Jesus went on to say, “To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? What are they like? 32They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other: “ ‘We played the pipe for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not cry.’

Sounds of my Writings: Beauty in Chaos

Look around you, see all the moving parts? It just seems like so many times in life things are spinning out of control.

Some of the religious sectors may say “that this is not good”, others may say “it’s the enemy of your souls”. But, if you look close enough you will find that in the midst of all that chaos, there is a master carpenter who is in control. He is orchestrating all the moving parts that you are unaware of.

My beautiful wife always says that whenever I start a building project everything looks “messy, out of order, and chaotic”. She would even question embarking into the “unknown”. But, to the one who has a vision, to the master architect, and to the master-builder it all makes sense.”

God is that way. There is beauty in your chaos, just look closer and trust the process. He is at work!

Jeremiah 29:11-14

11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the Lord, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.”
