Podcast Ingrids Song: I want to love you more Jesus
When your hand put your hands in his hand, when you see his loving face, which sort of feeling rise
The idea with this part of the text is, that Jesus walkes beside me. I only can put my hand in someones hand who is beside me, not above, not behind, not far away. Jesus is near me and in situations which are frightening me, I take spiritually his hand.
When my daughter was at the dentists, I took her hand and said, when it hurts , press my hand. We can do the same with Jesus, press his hand, claim to him and cry with him, when something goes hard in our life.
When the text talks about Jesus loving face, means I can see him with my spiritual eyes. He is looking the whole time at me and prays for me at the fathers throne in heaven. When I am in his presence, I can look at him with my spiritual eyes and have a relationship full of love with him.
When you look at the stars in a dark night, when you miss someone deeply, what will you do in your life?
The text talks about how I think at Jesus in a starry night. When I look at the stars, I think that universe is gigantic and there is a creatorwhich is even more gigantic as the universe. I think that the happiness of our lifes is not here on earth, but on the other side, in the eternal life, that we get as a gift if we are following Jesus faithfully here on earth. And the people I have missed alreadyare there on the other side and I will meet them one day once again.
If without the passion from Jesus. If life without goals and destination. What will happen to you?
The good question is, what are we living for, without the passion for Jesus and goals and destinations. One christian writer said: You created us for you and our heart is inquiet until we have found you.
There is an emptyroom in our heart that only God can fill. This is, why Jesus said: those who drinks from me will never thirst and those who eat from me will never starve.
Without Jesus we are running around, searching for amusements and a lot of things. But when we have Jesus, we can calm down. Our life gets a purpose and a meaning, even not everything is easy.
Currently AI Chatgpt is the high light topic. Future AI will replace more than 50% jobs. Face such situation, if Jesus can’t tell us what to do. Will humans still believe in his love and praise for him?
The text says: I want to love you more Jesus, not only because you bless me.
Sometimes people behave like cats: When they want something from God, they come and make a superholy face. When they have got what they want, they run away and goon with the life without him.
We shall come to God in times where there is no blessing, too.
The scripture says: Seek ye first the kingdom of God and you will get the rest. This is a great promise. But it works only if we seek the kingdom of God and not the blessings of God.
So let us begin to pray for the daily bread and seek the kingdom of God by reading the bible or talking about him, as we do here and than we can confide in his promise that he will add what we need.
As a young lady, I am feeling quite anxiety when I must think about future roads.I also want to say like sister. ”I give thanks to you” But I feel I’m not deserved such love from him. Pls say some words to today’s youngers. Just encourage them if you could create a tale that evoked that sort of destiny.
The only thing I can say to you is to testify, that it is the truth what I have given you as an answer for your questions:
I lived once a time with difficult economic situation, too. But I went on seeking God, writing music and praise for him and I never starved. I don t remember how, but friends came to my house and asked me to work something for them – paid work – so I had every day for to buy some rice and in my garden I had so many avocados that I even could share with someone and a few time later, economic situation was better.
Even if we are christians and believe, the tests of faith will come and God wants to see our reaction: He wants us to confide and be faithful and Jesus said to Peter: The devil claims that you all are tested.
So if we go through a difficult period, it is better to believe more and not loose hope than to cast away the faith and return to a life without Jesus.
The only word of encouragement I have is, to testify that I have experienced that the words of the bible are the truth and that life goes well if we put them in practise.
