Here is the lyrics, read it meditatively and start to live a fast-paced yet relaxed daily life.

I
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began
II
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There’s no way to measure
What You’re worth

CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind a stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

A Merry Heart - Proverbs 15:13: Just to share to all of the people in the whole wide world that there is always a benefit out of a truly merry heart. It might be a big question and boggling puzzle how to be merry when there are so many worries and fears in this world. Well, it really needs to be part of your daily system. As commented by Henry Matthew: Harmless mirth is recommended to us, as that which contributes to the health of the body, making men lively and fit for business  making the face to shine and rendering us pleasant one to another.

A cheerful spirit under the government of wisdom and grace, is a great ornament to religion, puts a further lustre upon the beauty of holiness, and makes men the more capable of doing good. Hurtful melancholy is what we are cautioned against, as a great enemy to us, when it has dominion and plays the tyrant. The spirit is broken and becomes unfit for the service of God.

Matthew Henry commentary on Boasting About Tomorrow has been helping me to understand the message of God at Proverbs 27:1 which goes this way “Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thu knowest not what a day may bring forth” (KJV). Sometimes, we tend to depend on what we have now to feel secure about what a day may bring ahead. That means most of the time that we tend to neglect trusting and keeping in touch with the Lord when we are sufficient today.

Well, I like the commentary message of Matthew Henry about boasting on tomorrow as related to the verse Proverbs 27:1. Boast not thyself, no, not of tomorrow, much less of many days or years to come. This does not forbid preparing for tomorrow, but presuming upon tomorrow. We must not put off the great work of conversion, that one thing needful, till tomorrow, as if we were sure of it, but today, while it is called today, hear God’s voice. We know what a day may bring forth, what event maybe in the teeming womb of time. God has wisely kept us in the dark concerning future events, that he may train up up in a dependence upon himself and a continued readiness for every event, Acts i.7.

Proverbs 23:4 “Labour not to be rich, cease from thy own wisdom”
23:5 “Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” (KJV)

Matthew Henry commentary on riches - Proverbs 23:4-5 Some are given to appetite(v.2) others to covetousness. We must endeavour to live comfortably, and provide for our children and families, but we must not seek great things. Be not of those that will be rich, that design it as their highest end,1 Tim.vi.9. What thous hast, or doest, be master of it, and not a slave to it as those that rise up early, sit up late, and eat the bread of carefulness, and all to be rich. The things of this world are a show, a shadow, a sham upon the soul that trusts to them. Wilt thou do a thing so absurd in itself? What thou, a reasonable creature, wilt thou dote upon shadows? Riches are very uncertain things; they make themselves wings and fly away. The wings they fly away upon are of their own making. They have in themselves the principles of corruption. They go irresistibly and irrecoverably, as an eagle towards heaven, that flies strongly, and flies out of sight and out of call (there is no bringing her back); thus do riches leave men in grief and vexation if they set their hearts upon them.

A good name is a theme at the book of Proverbs Chapter 22. The verse 1 states ” A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches and loving favour rather than silver and gold”.
A very scholarly made commentary by Matthew Henry is hereby shared for you: We should be more careful to do that by which we may get and keep a good name than that by which we may raise and increase a great estate. By great riches we may receive the bodily wants of others, but by a good name we may recommend religion to them. To be well beloved, to have an interest in the esteem and affections of all about us; this is better than silver or gold.

The role of the church is not to be ignored these days. The church composed of group of people believing in the Lord Jesus Christ and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ has a great responsibility in the whole world today. Looking at what happened to Haiti recently, believers are but expected to be commissioned to do rescue effort.

The church will not stop working out as it sees people dying without Jesus Christ. The role of the church has to be carried out as it is expected to bring hope, salvation, education and relief to desperate people around the globe. It is time for the church to carry on the truth and power of the Lord and save the world.

Does anyone wisely think that there is Strength in weakness? Yes, this is quite a very real thing in one’s life. We believe that each of us has the so-called limitations or weaknesses. This theme might be relative for not everyone has the same weaknesses. We all have these negativity in our attitude, disposition and appearance but not necessarily the same. Too good that we have been reminded that we do not have to get down and dry because of these weaknesses. The fact is there a powerful strength that can manifest in times and aspects of weakness. Here are some of biblical truth about strength in weakness. Use these bible verses to uplift you when you see weakness in your own self or even in your fellow.
—2 Corinthians 12:9-10 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
—Nehemiah 8:10 Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

Yes, God had provided all through giving us His Son- our Lord Jesus Christ. Receive this very special gift. He is the greatest gift not only this season but on all occasions.

JESUS CHRIST - the greatest and best gift during Christmas and any occasion. Maybe you have been thinking about the best thing you could offer to your loved ones. Of course, you want to give the best to the best. I myself have been used to get burdened every time Christmas comes. I used to have my shopping list a couple of months before the last month of the year. Good thing I have learned that the best gift during yuletide season or any occasion is actually priceless. Thus, I do not have to be worried about the amount of savings that I have to give away neither I am troubled on the time I should give to make purchase.

Yes, actually Jesus Christ is the gift I am always longing to give to all of my loved ones - my family and friends.

Tithing is a principle of giving which has been considered as controversial issue in the christian field. I have read and heard various discourse and disputes about the so-called act of tithing. Some said that it was just being practiced in the old testament of the bible and not in the new testament. Some even reasoned out “Oh! Giving a tenth of the whole of everything that has been earned with so much tears and sweats? Not practical!! Good thing many have been convinced with the biblical validity of this matter. Tithes: the principle that must be searched profoundly and thoroughly so that we will not be led astray and not be despised of the blessings that have been enclosed to this command of God. Yes, I myself actually believe that tithing is an action in obedience to what God is telling us to do. Tithes: The Principle of obedience. That is what I am practically trying to emphasize. Search more about this principle and get wisdom to get more blessings from God above.

One important question every man has in mind is “where will I go after I die?” or better yet,”where will I spend eternity?” Query that must not actually boggle your mind madly but seriously you should really take it into consideration.

For me, one important fact is that we are saved not by works- not by our good works(though these must be a product of having Christ in our heart) but by the grace of God so that no one will boast as said in Ephesians chapter 2; by receiving Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior of our lives through faith.
