This is Dr. Kim Sung Hae, who spoke in my church today. I really really like her a lot:) It's not about the talents she have or her biblical knowledge that impressed me. It's her childlike faith and love for God. Although she doesn't speak fluent English, she still preached, sang and prayed in English. Everytime she finished sharing her point, she would praise God. In the video of her missions all over the world, I see her dancing with joy in praise of the Lord. It's the attitude that counts.
It reminded me of the Psalm of David.
Psalm 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.
Sometimes, I feel contraint by the rules in church.
What's right and wrong? Who's to judge except God.
Many times I can only do what I can.
But is there a choice to not do what I think I can't?
Obligations.
Responsiblity.
Accountability.
Enables us to lie on green pastures?
Where's the liberity in Christ?
I don't desire to be great or even be noticed.
Or even expand my capacity or what so ever.
I just wanna be happy, be myself.
And be with You and those You placed in my life to love and be loved for who I am.
Just dancing and praising You without worries.
So what if I don't dance well.
So what if I don't sing well.
So what if I don't do what others say I ought to do.
So what if I don't meet expectations.
So what if I don't do things I don't like to do even if it's needed.
It's my choice.
And the heart matters more.
Don't you think so?
