I have decided to follow Jesus

This is my retake on the famous hymn "I have decided to follow Jesus"

[Intro]

I have decided to follow Jesus (2)
No turning back (2)

[Verse]

In his presence, my soul is filled with glory (2)
His blood has been my greatest gain (2)

[Chorus]

I have decided to follow Jesus (2)
No turning back ( 2 )

[Verse]

Now my eyes does behold his beauty (2)
For the promise has now been fulfilled (2)

[Chorus]

I have decided to follow Jesus (2)
No turning back ( 2 )

[Verse]

Now we sing in Jubilation
Now we raise a song of praise
Christ our Lord is now alive,
Hallelujah, God be praised.

[Chorus]

I have decided to follow Jesus (2)
No turning back ( 2 )

[Outro]

When we shall hear the trumpet call,
We shall be transformed;
Christ shall descent on the clouds above,
We shall see the radiant Son

There he shows his beauty to me,
I will find myself complete;
Now let the church in Jubilation,
Rise their hand and now proclaim

Death your sting is no more painful,
Sin no longer one with me;
God in whom we trust is faithful
In his grace, now I live.

The Nativity - by Gari Melchers

This could be my first ever critique of art that I have ever written and that is because it is only recently art has captured my interest as much as this work. This write up is made both in English and German as I want to practice my German. 'The Nativity' by Gari Melchers. I am not an art expert and my critique is from a layman's point of view, but bear with me. I have tried reading some information about the art and the culture behind it and I have my two favourite blog posts about the same work and yes, I have shamelessly copied some of their thoughts. Woebegone but Hopeful and other is by Lisa VO . Julius Garibaldi Melchers (August 11, 1860 – November 30, 1932) was an American artist. He was one of the leading American proponents of naturalism.

2 Kings 5 | Part 2 | Naaman and the Offense of the cross

This section of the story in 2 Kings chapter 5 focuses on Naaman. We know that Naaman was the commander in chief of the armies of Syria and possibly the right hand man as he was incharge of strategic, political and warfare and security. This was a very prestigious role that Naaman had earned. Some Jewish Rabbis say that his ruthlessness and his power resulted in God punishing Naaman with Tzaraat which is translated as Leprosy. For the sake of these notes, I would consider the word Leprosy. Naaman was powerful and wise. In fact, it was God who had blessed him from the start. The verse says that Naaman was a powerful and influential man valued by the king greatly. His victory was a gift from God to Aram. Why would God bless a foreign nation to attack the Israelites? In Deuteronomy chapter 28, Moses tells the people that God would make the enemies of Israel punish the people of God if they are disobedient. Jehoram, the then king of Israel was the son of Ahab. Ahab and his wife Jezebel le

Unlike the letter of James, this book is written to a Jewish / Gentile Christians who are scattered across various provinces that are outside their ideal world. In the last two weeks we have been looking at what it means to live as people who love God. Today and the weeks to follow, we will look at how this is meant to be worked out as people living among other nations.
