Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. -Isaiah 40:28(NLT)
EVERLASTING GOD
A poem and essay by ILMA
Look around you and you’ll be amazed at God’s creation
He made all things on this earth for your consumption
Give praise and thanksgiving for an everlasting God
Never forget to worship him and always bring him laud.
The Lord is faithful; he never grows weak or weary
God forgives and never ceases to love unconditionally
He is there when we are joyful or during our adversities
Believe that he is eternal; he gives all believers victory.

Do you ever grow weak or weary? Like me, I am sure you experience ups and downs in your life. It can be very challenging to constantly be bombarded with much choices and noise around us in this very chaotic world. We need to pursue peace at all cost and receive God’s rest daily. This is the only way we can be guaranteed that we will experience peace. God created us in his image and I am sure he wants us to focus on him so that we don’t experience weakness or weariness. He is everlasting and we can only come close to his perpetual character if we regularly connect with him. He promises eternal life to all those who believe in him.

He feels pity for the weak and the needy, and he will rescue them, He will redeem them from oppression and violence, for their lives are precious to him. – Psalm 72:13-14(NLT)
FOR THE WEAK AND NEEDY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you struggling with a weakness in your life?
Find solace in knowing you’ll be rescued by Christ
Have your needs stayed unmet by your loved ones?
You will only feel complete when you seek God’s Son.
The Lord will redeem you from violence and oppression
Only through him, will you be freed and find salvation
You are the apple of his eyes and is very precious to him
Rejoice and be glad that you will be rescued from sin.
________________________________________
Our world caters more to the strong and marginalize the weak and the needy. In some underdeveloped countries, needs are minimized and forgotten. In faced paced places, nobody even cares if someone else is in need. The important thing for them is to work hard for their money and power. To each his own has become the norm and nobody goes out of their way to find out how they can help someone out.
In Jesus’ time, he always had time for the weak and the needy and those who were mistreated or judged by the public. He feels pity for them and he promised that he will rescue them because they are precious to him.
PRAYER
Lord, show me how to extend compassion to the weak and needy.
REFLECTION
Why does God have a special place in his heart for the weak and needy?

Brothers and sisters, we urge you to warn those who are lazy. Encourage those who are timid. Take tender care of those who are weak. Be patient with everyone.
-1 Thessalonians 5:14 (NLT)
ENCOURAGEMENT AND PATIENCE
A poem and essay by ILMA
When you are encouraging to one another
It builds up the whole body of believers
Urge those who are lazy to begin taking a step
Encourage the timid to start asking for help.
Take very tender care of those who are vulnerable
They are very fragile and are very susceptible
Have patience with everyone as God is with you
You’re like a light that brings others to be renewed.
________________________________________
Imagine a world without encouragement and patience? Many people will be judging and putting down each other. They will probably lose their temper and start physically or verbally fight each other. Life can seem meaningless to a discouraged person. Constant lack of encouragement can make all our hard work futile and lead to isolation, depression or even suicide.
The bible instructs us to have patience and be encouraging to live in complete harmony with each other in Romans 1AS 5:5. It shows that God himself possess this attributes. Paul tells us in 1 Thessalonians 5:14 that we give extra encouragement to the lazy, timid and weak. Accepting their weaknesses and being a light to them in darkness can lead them to Christ and built up the church.
PRAYER
Lord, help those who are weak and discouraged.
REFLECTION
What can encouragement and patience bring to your life?
