One day, I awoke early in the morning to watch the sunrise. Ah the
beauty of God's creation is beyond description. As I watched, I praised
God for His beautiful work. As I sat there, I felt the Lord's presence
with me.
"Do you love me?"
"Of course, God! You are my Lord and Savior!"
"If you were physically handicapped, would you still love me?"
body and wondered how many things I wouldn't be able to do, the things
that I took for granted.
And I answered, "It would be tough, Lord, but I would still love You."
"If you were blind, would you still love my creation?"
of all the blind people in the world and how many of them still loved
God and His creation.
So I answered, "Its hard to think of it, but I would still love you."
"If you were deaf, would you still listen to my words?
to God's Word is not merely using our ears, but our hearts.
I answered, "It would be tough, but I would still listen to Your word."
"If you were mute, would you still praise My Name?"
to sing from our very heart and soul. It never matters what we sound
like. And praising God is not always with a song, but when we are
persecuted, we give God praise with our words of thanks.
So I answered, "Though I could not physically sing, I would still praise
Your Name.
"Do you really love Me?"
love You because You are the one and true God!"
I thought I had answered well, but...
"THEN WHY DO YOU SIN?"
WHY ONLY IN TIMES OF TROUBLE DO YOU PRAY IN EARNEST?"
"Why only sing at fellowships and retreats? Why seek Me only in
times of worship? Why ask things so selfishly? Why ask things so
unfaithfully?"
news? Why in times of persecution, you cry to others when I offer
My shoulder to cry on? Why make excuses when I give you
opportunities to serve in My Name?"
I have blessed you with talents to serve Me, but you continue to turn away.
I have revealed My Word to you, but you do not gain in knowledge.
I have spoken to you but your ears were closed.
I have shown My blessings to you, but your eyes were turned away.
I have sent you servants, but you sat idly by as they were pushed away.
I have heard your prayers and I have answered them all."
no excuse. What could I say to this? When my heart had cried out and
the tears had flowed, I said,
" Please forgive me Lord. I am unworthy to be Your child."
" That is My Grace, My child."
"Then why do you continue to forgive me? Why do You love me so?"
"Because you are My creation. You are my child. I will never abandon you.
When you cry, I will have compassion and cry with you.
When you shout with joy, I will laugh with you.
When you are down, I will encourage you.
When you fall, I will raise you up.
When you are tired, I will carry you.
I will be with you till the end of days, and I will love you forever."
could I have hurt God as I had done? I asked God,
"How much do You love me?"
bowed down at the feet of Christ, my Savior
And for the first time, I truly prayed.
