As what I have mentioned in my previous article, I will be featuring Love.
Love is the outmost need of humanity. It is a foundation on how we live and how God loves us. It is the ultimate satisfaction that I found in Christianity.
Do you know that the highest form of compassion can only be found in Christianity?
Before, I had confusion when I joined born again Christian church. By the way I was a former Roman Catholic.
As my relationship to God grows, I discover more how He loved me despite of my weaknesses and failures in Life and by His Grace I am saved.
This is true enough as Ephesian 2:8-10 says, “8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”
That verse is enough proof that no church or person could be ever saved you but only God that is through Lord Jesus Christ who is seated at the right hand of the Father.
I always put into my mind this message from my Life Coach – “God loves you… more than the devil hates you”. By the way, my coach consultation is free and I believe he is given by God to me.
From there, I started to read Bible and ask God’s guidance with the help of the Holy Spirit. I had some confusion, doubts and anxiety attacks. Despite of these emotions, I remain focus because I believe that Spiritual wellness is the highest need of human and God is with me.
According to Dr. Ang Yong Guan, the top four (4) aspects of one self are as follows, Spiritual as the highest followed by Emotional then Physical and last is Social. We need to have clear spiritual beliefs, be it religious or non-religious (e.g. artistic pursuits such as art, music, singing, and dancing etc.).
How does the Bible accurate? Whether you believe it or not, there is a God who created Earth. I will show you on my succeeding articles the proof how amazing God is. And if you are in doubt of Jesus Christ, I advise you to read the Gospel (Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John) many times so that it will sink in to your spirit. There are also evidences that reading the Gospel can heal sickness.
Remember if you have no appetite you still eat food right? So even you do not have interest reading the bible, I encourage you to read until such time you your faith becomes better.
Faith comes from Hearing and Hearing of the word of God. If you don’t have audible Bible just keep on reading and reading.
In my life, it really transforms me. Even when I experienced sickness I just utter a prayer and I am healed right after my prayer.
Sorry for being diverting this article on my belief. I just need to mention something how I was transformed of the Bible and how God loves me and the whole humanity. I am thankful also to my current church, New Creation Church, here in Singapore where I found God’s love.
Let’s go back to Faith, Hope and Love. 1 Corinthians 13:13 says “13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is LOVE.”
What strike me and meditate on the mentioned verse is how deep and important how love is. And remember I told you that the highest form of compassion can only be found in Christianity? It is Agape.
Agape according to Wikipedia is the highest form of love, charity; the love of God for man and of man for God.
Here is my explanation among the three. Faith is a trust into something or someone you didn’t see. But it is crucial. Why? Faith and Hope as long as we are human can be compromised. I experienced all this things that is why I am telling you this. During my down moment of my life battle, I haven’t feel God, but God shows His way to me that he is real and He loves me despite of my unbelief and painful life. Below is a screen of the message sent by someone to me.
Don’t you know that I tried all positive thinking and read self-help books but I failed? I tried to read some life blogs also but it’s just a temporary solution. And still I am not changing.
With God’s love to me, I am delivered to all hang ups in my old life. Though my journey of transformation is not yet completed but I am now dwelling on God’s promise in the Bible and sticking on His perfect Love. The reason why I trust and love Him is because he first loves us.
Below are the promises of God not only for me but for us because it is written in the Bible and it is what I always playing in my mind.
- 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. – Jeremiah 29:11.”
- For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. – John 3:16
The Bible is a word of God. God is omnipotent. God does not lie. Bible is our source of daily living.
For you who is reading this article and want to be Jesus as your personal and Saviour I encourage you to find a nearest Bible-based Church. It is worth finding Jesus in the right Church.
As my experience I visited three churches. Let God speaks to you and my prayer is may He guide you in your journey as He guide me during my tough times. I love myself now more than ever.
I am motivated now to my life purpose. I tried to find happiness in different places and all aspects of my life here on Earth, but I failed. But now that I found Jesus, I am living in freedom because I know my destination and that is in Heaven.
My prayer and hope that you can find His perfect love in the right church in his perfect time!
