What's it like to suffer and wait till you DIE?

So, I spent my almost my whole afternoon listening to Lydia Paul's message. Almost every part of the message spoke to met . There was this part she talked bout the lepers , how they suffered and all. It's not the main point of the whole message, but just to think of the sufferings they go through everyday. It made me cry just to think of it.

Imagine how much pain they go through EVERYDAY, with so little chance of being CURED. What bout those in the poor countries? WHAT IF they dont have anyone to foot their medical bills? There's NOTHING they can do, But to sit around and suffer from THAT EXCRUCIATING PAIN, just waiting to DIE. Is it fair to them , you ask? What did they do wrong to deserve this kind of pain? I'm sure NOT everyone deserved it. All those ikcy lepromatous germs just so happened to spread to them. it's not like they WANTED to suffer from this sickness, right?

But WHAT ABOUT YOU? You have a perfectly HEALTHY BODY, with every part working , alive, and going. BUT




WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DEVOTING YOURSELF/LIFE TO?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You have,

MORE THAN YOU NEED AND  IT'S JUST NOT ENOUGH AND YOU WANT MORE!

I dare you to deny that you’ve complaint bout life. I know I have.

WHILE,They don’t have,

● EVERYTHING YOU HAVE. OR , EVERYTHING THEY EVEN NEED.

And they just wanna wake up, clinging on to a HOPE for a better life.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHEN YOU COULD ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING,

You flush it all away when you give in to your desires.

You spent time on worthless things

when you could reach out to a thousand others,

All you do is " I WANT THIS!" and demand it to be done.

You eat royal meals that would last them a day or two.

You pay at least RM30 per month on your phone ,

You pay at least RM88 per month for the Internet service,

You spent money of the stuff you DON'T actually  NEED,

and you say you can't afford to give.

HELLO? They're practically LIVING in HELL , while you're living this luxurious life!

All they want is  ,

●just to LIVE a SIMPLE, healthy life ( Even THAT, they can’t get. They have to go through all the sufferings they didn’t intend to )

● snap a finger and say “ I NEED THIS!!”
( but it often doesn't work for them either )

● just to have PROPER MEALS and sufficient nutrients EVERYDAY.

● stuff you already have, eg. Shelter, clothes, food, family, friends, LOVE.

● to experience how is it like to be LOVED. To be cared for.

● YOUR attention!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Life is uncertain , anything could happen.
You might just end up in their shoes.
Wonder what happens next?

THINK. SACRIFICE. 

WHAT CAN I GIVE INSTEAD OF WHAT WOULD I RECEIVE?

Instead of being selfish and storing up everything for yourself, learn to give. Take it as a challenge to Go out of your comfort zone to make someone else feel comfortable and valuable. WALK THE TALK, Our words are important, but our actions carry more weight than our words.






I tell you the truth , whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine , you did for me. Matthew 25:31-46.

IT DOESN’T HURT TO GIVE, and certainly you won’t regret.
No matter what we have or do,
if we have not love then we have nothing and WE ARE NOTHING.

"Break my heart for what breaks yours"
Yesh, It certainly breaks HIS heart to hear the cries of the lost.
"Show me how to love like you, have loved me"
I couldn't stand it but to shed tears when I was watching the video.It really HIT ME HARD AGAIN, and I seriously heard, AND FELT , the cries of the lost.

But so WHAT? You can't just sit around waiting for GREATER THINGS to happen? You gotta STEP OUT FROM YOUR COMFORT ZONE, TAKE THAT STEP OF FAITH , AND
DO SOMETHING TO MAKE IT HAPPEN! :)
