Do not worry
Alone at night, wondering about the nature
The wind blow, the moon shining
All look calm and peaceful
No fear or anxiety, everything is in harmony with the night
But in my heart I fear, with the wind I worry
For no man is able to predict the future
With so many uncertainty that can happen
Many things can happen and yet it is out of my control
Many questions but do not have enough answers
In the quiet night all is calm except me
I worry about my career, my welfare, my family, my relationship and my future
But in the midst of all this worry a small voice speak to me
“What are you worrying and why?”
“I worry that I sleep tonight and tomorrow I may not wake up?”
“Well if you worry, do you still need to sleep?”
“Yes, because if I do not sleep I cannot function as human?”
“Well so you still need to sleep at night.”
“Yes.” I answer
“Then why do you worry?”
Interesting question but I do not have the answer.
Jesus provide me with the answer and comfort knowing that He care for me
For this is what He says
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life not more important than food and the body more important than the clothes? Look at the birds of the air, they do not sow or reap or store away in the barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?”
Matthew Chapter 7 Verse 25-27
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Matthew Chapter 7 Verse 34
The word and the flesh
In the beginning was the word
And the word was with God
The word become flesh
And made His dwelling among us
And on this special day
John the Baptist cries out to many
‘Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world’
‘I have seen and I testify that this is the Son of God’
Jesus, the word walk among man
And He says ‘Follow Me’
To people like fisherman and commoner
And in Him they become the fisher of man
With Him they roam among the land
Great miracle You give among the people
Yet great sorrow You see
For they change Your Father’s house into a market place
You answer those who question Your authority
‘Destroy this temple and I will rise it again 3 days’
But the temple He talks about is not the one in Jerusalem
And nobody understand until He is resurrected from the grave
On the cross the flesh cry out
‘Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing’
In all agony He forgive
In death He give out hope
The flesh become the word once again
And He will remain with his reader until the end of time
For he promise in his very own word
‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.
Therefore go and make disciple of all nation,
Baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
And teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
And I surely I am with you always,
To the very end of the age.’ Amen

We are the reason
Son of God
Leave His authority in heaven
To walk on earth
For a little while
To see and feel
How His creation live
And to bring salvation plan
To us His enemy
To whom He love and care
But sadly
We didn't accept Him
And we cry
We laugh,we scorn
We insult and we kill
The one whom He send
We are the reason
All this happen
But we do not know
For like a blind man
Walking in circles
Light has shine
Yet we prefer darkness
We are the reason
Christ die
An immmortal become mortal
An immortal choose to give up immortality
To be a baby born in a manger
Among animal not man
To die for a race of useless people
And receive no appreaciation for it
But rather condemnation, sneer and shame
Why a God who have no beginning and end die?
Why a God who created all thing die for his creation?
Why God is immortal give up immortality?
Many question ask but God only give one
He love us
Because of love an immortal die
Because of love he give up all that he has in heaven
Because of love he suffer in pain, shame and agony
Because of love man is given eternal life
God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
The one who send Jesus to die
Who love us more than man can tell
And as from the mouth of Abraham
When Isaac ask his father 'Where is the lamb?'
Abraham answer ' God will provide'
The shepherd I never know..... until now
In the darkest path I walk
In dangerous way I run
Running no way and no way to go
Like a stray lamb with no home to return
In fear and anger, in sadness and anxiety
In hopelessness and shame
Until the day You come into my world
You give me a place to rest my wary body
You give me a light to show my path
You give me strength to face everyday
From a defenceless lamb on an altar
You have provided me a shepard to guide all my day
Just like in the great book say
'I am good shepherd'
The good shepherd lays down His life for the sheep
The Immortal become mortal and die
So that today man may live again
In the sheep pen of God in heaven
All pain,grief,sadness and death is taken away
Replace with love,mercy and grace
You my Lord are the good shepherd who love your sheep
you claim in truth
' I am the gate for the sheep'
For which provide security from thief and robber
From death and destruction
Because of love
You give yourself for the sheep
Even to the point of death
In you all sheep has a place to rest
In you all sheep know peace
For they know they have You
A good shepherd who care for them

The greatest love story ever told
This story start somewhere 2000 ago
In a very simple manner but in all His greatness
As man become more evil
And as evil control more souls
In the darkest time of humanity
A flash of ray shine through from heaven
Salvation from God for mankind is given
Born into the world in a lowly manger
Accompany only by animal rather than man
It is such a shame that the only Son of God is given
And man do not know of it until later
This boy king is born with nothing but love
To love and save what is His
He can be the mightiest of all conquerors
He can be the wisest of all sages
He can be the most powerful of all gods
But He choose to be a baby born in the family of a carpenter
Display his life, his wisdom and love
For all to see, for all to follow
Baptized by John Baptist
Approved by God himself
For from heaven above He says
' This is My Son whom I love with Him I am pleased'
To mark a beginning of another journey
A journey that eventually lead Him to death
Wherever He goes, His work tell His story
Wherever He walk,His path is followed
He become the Saviour of the world
On the mount He gave a sermon
Which till today man still read and follow
Which till today it is guideline to life
Yet His teaching fall on many deaf ear
Even thought he perform many great miracle for them to see
He heal the sick and let the lame walk
The blind He restore their sight
The paralyse is back on their feet
And as a Father looking out for His child
He come to look for the lost,confused and sick
For He want to save them all
For like the great book say
'Only a sick need a doctor'
He has the power to still the wind and calm the storm
The fiercest of demon He tame
Leper He transform and cure
The 5000 He feed
Miracle so generously He perform for His people
With parable He give His wisdom and thought
And with those who are sick in mind, in emotion and in life
He provided healing to make them whole again
With the jealousy of man reaching the maximun level
With the popularity of Jesus Christ ever high
Evil control the mind of man whom we know as the betrayer of christ
And into the hand of evil Christ is hand over
But on the night before, Jesus call all his disciple together in the upper room
Where He instituted 'The Last Supper'
To remember Him till He return
After 2000 years of the first supper night
Follower all around the world hope today will be the last
For when it is Christ promised He will return
Through on the cruel and lonely trip
Jesus walk alone with no defence
Is led to meet the authority of the day
But no sin can be found
Yet He is crucified on the cross
For all mankind for all time for sin
By the man of the day
Many thought all thing is lost
But on the 3rd day
He rise from the dead
In life he bring hope
In death he bring life
For He has kick hell's door
and death made non lethal
For Christ has given eternal life for all
All to receive, for all to grab
After his death, He rise
After His rise, He ascend to heaven
promising to return
The day when He has prepare a place in heaven for us
but before His ascendion
He gave one command
'Go into the world,bring the gospel and make disciple'
And He gave the greatest of all promise
' I will be with you till the end of the age' Amen
Soldier's March
Left, right,left,right
That is how the soldier march forward
With no fear and no question
For the order is already given
Forward to deal with all the obstacle
No retreat only victory
Brave,courageous and forward looking
Leaving behind his family, his country marching towards the enemy
Carrying with him his shield with his left
A sword on his right
Helmet on his head, breastplate on his body
Marching with pride in the eye
Standing side by side with other
Come christian soldier, come march like them
Marching like the roman legionaire of the old
Conquering everything that is on their ways
In their time roman empire rule the western world
Nobody can stand in their way
All powerful, all pride and all cruelty
Raising the sword to strike
Raising the shield to protect not only himself but the one next to him
Back to back protecting and fighting along the way
Brotherhood is form through suffering and pain
Come christian soldier, come march like them
Riding like the mongol of the old
Come crashing through any barrier not even the fortress of stone
Smashing all the way from the east to west
Even the battle harden warrior of russia fear when they heard about the mongol
Riding hard on the horse and their sword in the hand
Fast,furious and bloodly
Come christian soldier, come march like them
Moving into a battlefield like never before
Protecting one's homeland and everything it's own
Running away into the jungle,crawling place where no man will go
Hiding and fighting in place where no man think of
Climbing treetop, hiding under the ground
Fighting with the lowest of weapon but with the biggest heart
Fighting not only for country, home, land but for survival
Fight on christian soldier, come march like those who is before you
Soldier of roman legionaire fighting and win most of the known western world
Soldier of mongol who rule many known land of it's time the most fear
Soldier of vietnam on both side fighting for the most precious thing life
As we christian soldier fighting for the ultimate prize soul of man
March on step by step as furious as the wild horse of highland
March on stepby step as powerful as the legionaire of roman
March on stepby step as cunning as the soldier of fortune
For we are fighting as war not we have seen
We are fighting a war destiny in bible a war not of our own
A war for all mankind for all eternity
