Christ is risen! It's a political claim as much as it is a theological one. We are called to faith and to follow, to personal transformation and transformation of the world. The love of God triumphs over the violence of this world. Yes to justice, no to empire. Christ is risen indeed! [captions coming soon]
Go take refuge in Christ
When you wish to run and hide away
And never see again the light of day.
Go take refuge in Christ.
He is your hiding place.
In Him you'll find strength, identity, and grace.
Go take refuge in Christ.
No other refuge will suffice.
Go take refuge in Christ.
He remains enough.
Okay so, there’s a lot going through my mind rn. Don’t even know if I’ll make this post public. I wanted my next post to be about India but I haven’t had the mood to write about that so here.
So firstly, I’m still doing the Bible in 90 days challenge, and I’m now reading Job. In Job, basically (God allows) Satan takes away all of what Job has to see if he will sin against God.
In Job 1:21, it says:
“Naked I came from my motherʼs womb, and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.” (NIV)
Before reading Job, I went on GotQuestions.org (THIS IS AMAZING, BTW), to actually read about what Job is about. One thing that really stood out to me is that it said (under “Purpose of Writing” the book) : “Suffering may sometimes be allowed in our lives to purify, test, teach or strengthen the soul. God remains enough, deserves and requests our love and praise in all circumstances of life.”
Secondly, I’m on duty this week, and I’ve been asked by Sam since like Monday to choose a song. And usually, I find it quite easy to choose songs (through past experiences), I just play a bunch of songs and if they speak to me, I choose it. But this week, I’ve felt totally uninterested to even begin listening to music or (in a way, discouraged?) to find a song. But today, as I was debating, I remembered Job, and I wanted to incorporate it into the song I chose (and for some reason, Christ is Enough was not my first choice. Tbh, the song literally JUST popped into my head. LOL) but yea so I decided on Ever Be (mainly due to impulse and nerve cos Sam was asking) but then I went on YouTube to listen to it again, and I kinda almost cried?? Maybe it was the visuals or just the way she sang it, idk it was weird lol. And if ANYONE knows me, you’d know that I don’t cry when I watch movies and stuff, but yet I’m an emotional person. Idk where I’m going with this but YAH OK BYE PLS WATCH THIS AND CRY WITH ME.

My heart may feel heavy but Christ remains my hope
Christ IS enough
