The saying everyone does what's right in his own eyes takes sway..
But .. Jesus said I will never leave you nor forsake you...
Getting perspective is everything.
Maybe you're saying, like I'm prone to, "God, you can do this better than me, maybe someone better should?"
Does God make mistakes?
Maybe Jesus has asked you to do things, and you didn't feel worthy, yet. You can do them.
I'll tell you. He is pleased with the service.
It is nothing compared to your following him...your faith is still true.
Know, that following him has not come without a hard cost or price... He is still with us.
What he has done... All of it.. if even one thing for you, you realized as such... then.
It would be enough.
Our own Deyanu...
"It would be enough."
"Dayenu" is a Hebrew song traditionally sung during the Passover Seder, meaning "it would have been enough". The song lists numerous miracles God performed for the Israelites during the Exodus, with the refrain "Dayenu" after each one, signifying that even if only that single miracle had occurred, it would have been sufficient.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Meaning:
"Dayenu" translates to "it would have been enough" or "it would have sufficed".
Purpose:
The song expresses gratitude for the many miracles and acts of divine intervention during the Israelites' liberation from slavery in Egypt.
Structure:
Dayenu is a 15-stanza poem, each stanza recounting a different stage of the Israelites' journey from Egypt to the giving of the Torah and the building of the Temple.
Refrain:
After each stanza, the refrain "Dayenu" is sung, emphasizing that even if only that particular event had occurred, it would have been enough to express gratitude.
Passover Seder:
Dayenu is a central part of the Passover Seder, a ritual meal where the story of the Exodus is recounted.
Beyond the Song:
The concept of "Dayenu" encourages a mindset of contentment and gratitude, reminding us to appreciate the gifts and blessings we have received, even if they are not everything we desire.
I guess I'm expressing as best I can, "Want to be a part of the greatest movement on earth. He made you to be so and is present in your daily life...
Most likely more than 15 times, should you ever recall."
