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

Thank you God for loving me

Thank you God for giving man, Jesus

With Jesus the salvation plan is born

With the salvation plan in place

Man has hope of going to heaven

Yet nobody ask

While I want to walk away from Him
Then with a smile He offer me a gift
'Come and take this present'

Not knowing what to do
In His smile I see grace,mercy and love
The bible call it the gift of salvation

Thank you for sending your Son to die for us
Thank you God through His death mankind have hope
Thank you for your gift of eternal life
No man deserve this gift
Yet You give without reservation
Giving us sinner another chance to come back to You
