It's all about His love Part 1

Since last week, Ive been thinking about and singing Hillsong's "Power of Your love" in my quiet time. I am still singing, because I can't live without it.

" Lord I come to You
Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the grace
That I found in You.
And Lord I've come to know
The weaknesses I see in me
Will be stripped away
By the power of Your love.
Hold me close
Let Your love surround me
Bring me near
Draw me to Your side.
And as I wait
I'll rise up like the eagle
And I will soar with You
Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love.
Lord unveil my eyes
Let me see You face to face
The knowledge of Your love
As You live in me.
Lord renew my mind
As Your will unfolds in my eyes
In living every day
by the power of Your love."


The next day, someone in class asked me , " Win Nie, can I ask you something?"
"Yes? What is it ?" I said.

"Can you teach me how to be patient?" (At times, I feel like I'm a teacher going to school , rather than a student, seriously.)

I laughed her questions off, thinking how I should reply to her. She asked again, "Win Nie, can you teach me how to be patient in all situations ? "

"Have you heard someone says Love is patient , love is kind...?" I gave her the reply.

"Oh! Don't talk to me about love ! " came her reply.

"You ask me how to be patient what , and that's what I meant:when you love others more than you love yourself, you'll learn how to be patient." I gave her my answer.

Amazingly, the next day in class while we were still painting, she came with her question again. It's very interesting.

"Win Nie, can I ask you something?"

"Yeah ? " I said

"Do you know this song Power of Your love?"

My heart brightens up, "YEs ! Of course !I know! Lord I come to you, let my heart be changed......."

" no no Please don't sing it now. " somehow she was very reactive to it.

Then we began to talk about other Christian songs. It's interesting, because she has heard some of it during her school days. Later on, she requested if I would have the CD for Power of Your love as she would like to listen to it .

Till today, I wonder if the "Power of Your love" song has inspired her in any ways. But I'm glad she asked.

In the mean time, I would continue to sing this song forever !

1 Corinthians 13:3-5
3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. 4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
