We Have a Comforter

Oppression 

"Again I looked and saw all the oppression that was taking place under the sun: I saw the tears of the oppressed- and they have no comforter; power was on the side of their oppressors- and they have no comforter."

 Ecclesiastes 4:1

Ecclesiastes 4, verses 1 through 12, hit me so hard. The first time I read this verse, I thought about the word oppression. Prolonged cruel or unjust treatment. Oppression causes mental pressure, and distress. 

I think about the people around me who do not know Christ, they wake up everyday and face oppression, and I wake up everyday and see their tears, I see them hurting, but what am I doing about it? I WANT them to know Christ, but somehow, I let myself think, "Oh it might be awkward, I don't know what they might think, if I bring up Christ."

Sometimes in our human minds we somehow try to define God, but what we don't understand is that HE defines us! He created this world and everything in it! And yet, I try to put him into my little "God box". 

How can I not share this amazing God with everyone I know!? These people have no comforter! They literally need Jeaus, more than anything else! 

This may sound silly, but if you literally had the cure for cancer. I don't know you are storing it in your refrigerator or something, but if you had it, you would not just let it sit there on the shelf!!! You would share it with everyone who had cancer!!!

If you know Christ, if you have tasted this amazing God, how can you not share? 

We are made to tell others about Christ, we need this community of believers around us, commit to him! 

If you are not chasing God, you are just chasing the wind.

Safe from all the raging storms
Find me in Your loving arms
Free from all my doubt and fears
I have found a haven here

Hallelujah
He is with me
I am not alone

Your Love is sweeter than honey
Your Love is stronger than death
Your Love lifts me of my burdens
Teaches me To dance


Lockstep with my God and King
Move in perfect harmony
Feel the rhythms of His Heart
Know the Joy that He Imparts

Hallelujah
He is with me
I am not alone

Your Love is sweeter than honey
Your Love is stronger than death
Your Love lifts me of my burdens
Teaches me To dance

Your Love is sweeter than honey
Your Love is stronger than death
Your Love lifts me of my burdens
Teaches me To dance
To Dance

I absolutely love this song, his love is sweeter than honey, and it is stronger than death, he teaches me to dance through everything. This song, calms me down, and reminds me how blessed I am. I love it, love it, love it!
