This is a very nice verse I heard from a song. And I really feel it when I sing it with my eyes closed.
Whenever I drive to Selayang for work, and I listen to this song I really taste the love of God as I admire His creation. Living in PJ is different because I won’t be able to see as many mountains blanket over the earth as I traveled on the long peaceful super highway.
In some of the mornings I will see white cloudy mist covering the mountains and sometimes they are very green on a sunny morning. Sometimes the mountains are hazy too. They so beautiful, they are same mountains yet look different every day.
This is the time I have peace and communion with God before I start my work. In life we hear too much noise and so much of suggestion or maybe listening too much of my own flesh – I am bored, tired, busy, stess….EWW! Get off me you ugly words. Yes, often we fail to listen to what is eternal and GOOD. So, my morning boost from the heavenly touch really melts my heart and quenches my thirsty soul.
I remembered Rick Warren once told in one of his book that God created us as a human being that longs for perfection and eternity. No matter how we run or hide against our design, we can never escape, for God has created us in His image. We are always looking for the best ways and things or perfections with our partners, at home or our work and even our boss or ourselves. Have you wondered? I did.
Let us just listen to that small voice. Refreshing our vision. Realigning the goal of our life. What is life all about? Where are you heading with your partner, family, activities, money or even career? What is my reasoning?
“As the heavens are higher than the earth, So are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than yours. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return to it without watering the earth and make it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for eater, so is my word goes out from my mouth will not return empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:8-11)
And then the Lord says;
“You will go out in joy and he led forth in peace, the mountains and hills will burst into songs before you and the trees of the field will clap their hands…” (v.12)
May the Lord bless our every move – success and failure is not important, but the purpose and will for our life. In the midst the ups and downs of my life, heaven is still my home.
