SHOUT BOX!

Tuesday, September 16, 2008

While I was having steamboat for dinner, I saw a crayfish in the pot. But when I flipped it around, what I saw, gave me quite a shock, and then, I felt sad for it. The image of a little scrunched up human-look-a-like crayfish was a reflection of pain, hidden pain. Its tightly shut eyes really depicted suffering.




Everyone has a ‘normal’ and good-looking side, and many times we look at our friends, thinking that they are so complete. They are confident, they smile, they laugh, they joke and take everything easily. They never seem to let their needs and pain surface. We think that they will not want to hear about God because they think that they do not lack anything.

But just like how the crayfish has its flipside, our friends have their sides of hurt and emptiness too. And these can only be healed and filled, by God. Beneath the happy faces, everyone yearns for a perfect love that truly cares for them.

Everyone needs compassion, a love that’s never failing, let mercy fall on me.
Everyone needs forgiveness, a kindness of a Savior, the hope of nations.

People Need The Lord

Everyday they pass me by
I can see it in their eyes
Empty people filled with care
Headed who knows where

On they go through private pain
Living fear to fear
Laughter hides their silent cries
Only Jesus hears

People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door
People need the Lord, people need the Lord
When will we realize people need the Lord

We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right
What would be too great a cost
For sharing Life with one who's lost

Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bear
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share

People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door
People need the Lord, people need the Lord
When will we realize that we must give our lives
For people need the Lord
People need the Lord

Let’s use our time wisely and find opportunities to share our God’s love with our family and friends. =)
