my letter to a sister

Last night, at the small group fellowship, we sang the
song 主这样的爱。 I don't know if you still
remember the lyrics of this song.

主这样的爱，象那灿烂晨光，照亮我康庄大道。主这样的爱，象那习习晚风，轻拂着朦胧树梢。他珍贵又温柔稳妥，有耶稣就满足快活。主这样的爱, 使我激动澎湃，因这爱竟临到我。

I remember this was your favorite song when you were
in RI attending the Friday night fellowship. This
song reminded me of you! How wonderful it is for
someone to be able to find rest in the LORD. No
matter what, God loves you! When you are in despair,
call out to His name, and the LORD will comfort you.
It is never too late to turn back to God. At this
Christmas season, I hope you will find love and warmth
in your heart!

Remember the story of Jonah? This was his prayer when
he was at the stomach of the big fish.

1 From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the LORD his
God. 2 He said:
"In my distress I called to the LORD,
and he answered me.
From the depths of the grave [a] I called for
help,
and you listened to my cry.
3 You hurled me into the deep,
into the very heart of the seas,
and the currents swirled about me;
all your waves and breakers
swept over me.

4 I said, 'I have been banished
from your sight;
yet I will look again
toward your holy temple.'

5 The engulfing waters threatened me, [b]
the deep surrounded me;
seaweed was wrapped around my head.

6 To the roots of the mountains I sank down;
the earth beneath barred me in forever.
But you brought my life up from the pit,
O LORD my God.

7 "When my life was ebbing away,
I remembered you, LORD,
and my prayer rose to you,
to your holy temple.

8 "Those who cling to worthless idols
forfeit the grace that could be theirs.

9 But I, with a song of thanksgiving,
will sacrifice to you.
What I have vowed I will make good.
Salvation comes from the LORD."

10 And the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited
Jonah onto dry land.

Pray Jonah's prayer, and may the LORD give you peace,
joy and strength.

I will continue praying for you till one day we may be
called sisters in the LORD again.
