Jesus Loves Me

July 11, 2006

Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little one to Him belongs
They are weak but He is strong

Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so…

This is the first praise song that I learned from my grandma when I was little. Back then, I sang it in Hokkien language. To me there are no difference, this song still touch my heart deeply. I still remember that I sang it to everyone that I know once I remember the whole song…to my mom while she is washing dishes at the sink, to my father while he is resting, to my godmother (staying with us that time) who do not know Hokkien language at all…they are all amused by me.

Recently again, this song touch my heart so deep. I am having lots of difficulties with my pregnancy, mainly nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, losing weight, tiredness and sleepless nights…so hubby and me decided to go to Salvation one night to see if there are any sentimental song CDs that can soothe me to sleep. While browsing around, this song is played and I felt tears in my eyes cause it touched me deeply. It is a baby lullabies CD and we bought it. Now every night I listen to it and it really soothe me.

After being sick for more than a month, it really takes away a lot from me and make me a dull person. So, while rotting at home one day and it seems that I cannot take it anymore, this words of prayer from my friend’s wedding video just strike me, "God loves you very much!". I felt a relief immediately and quickly got up to pray, start responding to God…thanking Him for everyone and everything around me. A sense of gladness and comfort just fill me that day.

I really learned now that during times of trials like this, we need to know that God is there, protecting and loving us always. Never give up! and do not be afraid because God is there with us when we are weak.

There are so many favours that I received during this time and I just want to thank all the people that continue to support and encourage me.

A BIG THANK YOU and God bless you all greatly emoticon to:
