The heart of worship

How God loves me

Sunnie Wei — Wed, 26 May 2010 14:52:03 +0000

I did not expect my life can be a blessing for so many ones in Daniels until today’s farewell party.

I did not know so many people love me and care about me until they told me..

I did not know I am able to touch so many lives until I saw their tears…

I did not know how much I am loved until I saw the cross…

It is time say goodbye to all my friends in Brisbane…my tears are with me because I love them so much..and will miss you them so much…it is God taught me what love is through the cross; it is God taught me what joy is through His people in Daniels and Hope Church Brisbane; it is God reminded me again at the end of the day people will appreciate me because I share gospel to them…

I asked the Lord, is it a burden to give, to love and to sacrifice; the Lord answered: my yoke is a light. Ialways ask God to check my heart attitude and motive in doing what I am doing; whether it is for my own glory or His glory? But all in all, when our God is glorified, I am most satisfied; which is enough!

Lord reminds me Psalm139 these days:

¹ O LORD, you have searched me
and you know me.

² You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.

³ You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.

⁴ Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD.

⁵ You hem me in—behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.

⁶ Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.

⁷ Where can I go from your Spirit?
Where can I flee from your presence?

⁸ If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, ^[a] you are there.

⁹ If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
if I settle on the far side of the sea,

¹⁰ even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

¹¹ If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”

¹² even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

¹³ For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

¹⁴ I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

¹⁶ your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me
were written in your book
before one of them came to be.

¹⁷ How precious to ^[b] me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!

¹⁸ Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you.

¹⁹ If only you would slay the wicked, O God!
Away from me, you bloodthirsty men!

²⁰ They speak of you with evil intent;
your adversaries misuse your name.

²¹ Do I not hate those who hate you, O LORD,
and abhor those who rise up against you?

²² I have nothing but hatred for them;
I count them my enemies.

²³ Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.

²⁴ See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting.

I love it and know my Lord cares me and loves me more than I can imagine.

It has been raining for last week..

It is a season of changing and refreshing…

God seems drawing me back to some old memories…

However, I will move forward toward the destiny that He calls me to be.

Kiss the rain..

And I am still Sunnie

Yes, 2010 fall in love with Christ

Sunnie Wei — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 14:37:20 +0000

I am just amazed how fast the time it is from my last entry until now. Apart from the break down of the home internet, I guess I became busier than before, also might prefer to writing the diary in the notebook rather than blogging.

But truly God is in my life in 2009, regardless the struggles and confusions. The Lord my God is taking care of me all the way. Day after day, I knew my God more, fell in love with Him more and desired to stay in His presence more than doing other stuff. I love this feeling and will keep falling in love with my Lord-Jesus Christ.

As one of my diary entries written for the Lord-Jesus Christ after doing the quiet time a few days ago:

Love is a feeling that you just want to stay with this person,

A belonging that you know you belong to Him and He belongs to you,

Love is you know He cares about you and never forsakes you;

Love is a song in your heart which You only want to sing for Him.

It is sunlight which will lighten your heart for the whole day,

It is a rainbow brings hope and joy after the storm;

It is beautiful fallen leaves covered on the ground;

It is a smile that people give to you and offer a help when you are in need.

Love is a beautiful name and my Heavenly Father has demostrated all of them in my life. It is so precious and so real and I know He loves me deeply, deeply fall in love with me.

Love encourages me, strengthens me and matures me. It is a love that I can’t find anywhere except in Jesus Christ alone and He is my lover forever and ever!

It is just a begining..and Yes, 2010 will be a year that continues my love story with Christ…

I am in

Sunnie Wei — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 13:20:43 +0000

Don’t tell me what and how,

Don’t ask me why and when,

I just want to say I am IN..

I am in God’s house,

I am under God’s hands,

I will pursue His perfect plan in my life,

I have given myself and let Him make me fly,

I will fight a good fight in my life,

Never turn back, Never!!

I say again, I AM IN!!!

Far or Close

Sunnie Wei — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 12:51:32 +0000

Another time,

Another day,

I am writing from my bottom of heart.

I stand far away and look at what God is doing in my life,

I draw closer to Him, when I surrender all.

He speaks, He rebukes, He guides and He loves,

He is faithful as He reminded me again and again.

While, my heart is crying because when I draw closer to Him,

I am far away from my family back in China.

I asked, I questioned, I doubted..

At the end, I trust…

If that is His will in my life..

LET IT BE DONE..

How much more I can bear?

Sunnie Wei — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 05:27:19 +0000

Just finished the driving test…unfortunately, I failed the test..Sigh..I believe God is really doing something in my life..I have no job around 3 months, even just wanna pass my driving test during this free time, I failed..Many times, my driving instructor warns me you should do this otherwise you will fail it straight away. I was listening and scared about this word “failure”. It is a word, nobody wants to hear, me either. I never want to be a failure person, instead, I want to be on top. I was very discouraged and upset about the failure of the driving test, but somehow I can rejoice again because I know all the negative thoughts are from Satan rather than God. I picked up myself again.

At the same time, I asked God how much more you want to test me. I started to think about the prophecy words that some leader gave to me during the Sub-district Advance that God gave the JOY to me as my strength so I can use it to bring JOY and HOPE to other people. I am so grateful that God gave me all the JOY and postive thoughts always. Looking at my past, my life seems alright and I got all the things that I want and achieve, everything goes well; it is so easy to be joyful when things are going well. However, God is challenging me even my world fall, can I still find joy in Him and do I still trust in Him & love Him wholeheartedly. Day by day, I realise somehow my happiness rely on my circumstance-my good result in study, my good paid job or other stuff.

I question God how much more I can bear. I have nothing left..nothing except Jesus Christ. It seems I become more and more passive about my life and future day after day. But I believe that when I start to surrender my life to Him, He will lift me up! My prayer is my JOY will ONLY find in Jesus Christ-my salvation and eternal life, which will make me overflow with JOY!

I am poor and weak all I have is yours-every single breath…Lord, here I am..thanks for all the brokenesses, whatever You want to do in this life. Just do it… I will choose to be joyful in YOU and for YOU only. Even if my world will fall, above all, I live for YOUR glory.

silent Sunday morning

Sunnie Wei — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 02:16:31 +0000

Silence…it is only the rain this morning…

Quiet…it is the sound that God is speaking…

The rain outside is so beautiful and pure like pearls…

It is a Sunday morning that I can see such a great view…

I asked God, are you happy or sad this morning?

Are you expecting all the people on this earth could go to church and worship you? I believe you want to have followship with everyone on this earth, I believe you want everyone to experience your great love, I believe when you see those people fighting, struggling or worshipping other idols your heart is crying and hurt…

Lord, one day…one day…I believe the people on the earth will come to church and worship you on Sunday…don’t be upset, Lord…your children on the earth are doing your work…

For the glory of your name-Michelle Tumes

God You keep us without failing
As You watch us from above
In our comings and our goings
Sheltered by Your precious love
In the pouring rain of mercy
Comes the grace by which we’re saved
For the glory of Your Name
For the glory of Your Name

You have touched our lives forever
Can we be the same again
May our hearts be ever faithful
Ever faithful as a friend
Let us live that we may serve You
Overflowing with Your praise
For the glory of Your Name
For the glory of Your Name

We behold the man of sorrows
Hanging there upon a cross
Where we wounded One so holy
Yet these wounds are life to us
For the blood You shed was perfect
And Your finished work remains
For the glory of Your Name
For the glory of Your Name

Now we life our eyes to heaven
See You seated on the throne
Still rejoicing in Your promise
This is where our hope is found
For we know that You are coming
Every tongue will sing Your fame
For the glory of Your Name
For the glory of Your Name

This is song very nice melody with the peaceful piano. I fell in love with this song in the first place when I heard from Florence’s alarm sound:P during OC in Melbourne.

As time goes by…

Sunnie Wei — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 10:52:45 +0000

It is a season that God teaches how to love people around me…

Never thought that I will be deep in love some friends and treat some group of people as my family. I appreciate Hope Brisbane Christian Church especially Daniels (my chrisitan fellowship group) taught me how to love my brothers and sisters in Christ, how to treat them as my own families.

Looking back to my younger ages in school, university back to China, I had a few closed friends. However, I never ever feel such a closed friendship with them and treat them as my own family members because I didn’t know what LOVE is. We were closed but since we had our own life goals, believe, interest ect, we couldn’t be closed as a family. Maybe that is my own problem since I didn’t have the security in friendship. Because I always thought everyone has their own life and people are all like the passengers, come and go…I don’t want to give my all to them because I am afraid I will be hurt when they are leaving or I am leaving. So I always reserved my love or care for my friends. However, I missed out the great friendship that I may have through giving or receiving.

As time goes by…I am in Daniel 2 group more than 2 years. The thing I learnt more and more is having the true friendship with one another especially the great relationship as brothers and sisters in Christ. God makes me see how lovely my different brothers and sisters in Daniels are especially in Daniel2; different people have different personalities, strength and weaknesses, but we love one another as who they are. That is the way to love people…we just simply love them not matter who they are and what they are doing as God loves all of us even we are still sinners.

As time goes by…I understand more about God’s love for my life

As time goes by…I am able to share my love with others

As time goes by…I could find joy in God even it is in small things.

As time goes by…I am so grateful that I have such a wonderful family in Brisbane, Australia.

my first prayer book

Sunnie Wei — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 13:20:56 +0000

Today, I just finished my first prayer book called by Dutch Sheets. I spent around half year to finish this book. Humm, such an interesting reading process, I really praise God during this half year. At the begining, I felt the book is so boring book and could not understand what the book talks about, until now, I am able to understand it and discover the value of prayer. Praise God for teaching me how to pray and interceed for others, at the same time, growing my burden to interceed for others.

Thank Lord, let me know the power of prayer!!
