Entry: i wish you Jesus Thursday, September 14, 2006



Where might you be going this fine day, my friend?
Off along an aimless road that soon must end,
Chasing an illusive dream that shines to fair;
But when found isn't there.

I can understand your weary sigh, my friend
There but for the grace of God go I, my friend
Come, and let Him lead you to your journey's end
Oh, come along and walk with Him.

If without the grace of God, your life should end
And before the face of God you stand, my friend
What would your illusive dream avail you then?
So, come along and walk with Him.

These past few days have been extremely.. what? I can't place a word to it. Tumultous? Memorable? Earth-shaking? I don't really know. But 3 events over the past 3 days, all running consecutively, have managed to awaken something in me. Death has never been something I really had to deal with, I mean yeah I know we all will die some day and yeah I know I will wake up in heaven after I die, but it has never struck so close before. And it's when stuff like that happens, you realise it could happen to anyone.

I read Grace Zhang's blog on Tuesday. I admire so much her courage and her passion for Christ. But then I pretty much chucked it aside after reading, without thinking too much about it. Then Wednesday night came, and this morning, and now I've really started to think properly about it all. What am I doing for Christ? How many are the lost that I have lifted/ How many are the chained I've helped to free/ I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus/ When He has done so much for me? If I were to die today, would I be prepared to face God? And if my friend were to die in sin today, would I regret not telling him/her about God?

I could wish you joy and peace
To last the whole life long
I could wish you sunshine
Or a cheerful little song
Or wish you all the happiness
That this life could bring
But I wish you Jesus
More than anything

I could wish you leaves of gold
And may your path be smooth
I could wish you treasures
Or that all your dreams come true
And I could wish you paradise
That everyday be spring
But I wish you Jesus
More than anything

Cos when I wish you Jesus
I wish you everything.
