Hello everyone, I hope that everything is well! I’m deeply grateful to God to share with you a new piece of music named “Sarah”. The music is about those who feel late and left behind in life, especially women.
The title of the piece refers to Sarah, the wife of Abraham. Sarah was a deep believer in God, and also profoundly faithful to her husband. Sarah had a strong desire: to have a child. As time passed by, she started to age, losing the ability to produce offspring, and nothing seemed to come to her, while she believed. However, despite the doubts she had, she held on, believing God can operate in her life. And God — in His profound faithfulness — did. Very late, in her postmenopausal phase, she had a child named “Isaac”.
You can be in a similar place. You might be in your 30s, 40s, 50s and above. You might want to have a husband, or children, or something else and nothing seems to change in your life. Keep on believing in God. Don’t let social pressure make you think that your time has passed. Let those evil thoughts get lost. God’s got you, keep on believing and progressing with Him. In the waiting time, be active in progressing with God.
I encourage you to be completely obsessed with the thought of pleasing Christ, and developing a noble character. This new character will tremendously help you to smoothly handle the desire you have in your heart. Again, be completely immersed with God. Understand what He desire for you. Talk to Him all the time, and read or listen to the Bible as often as possible. If you want to progress in your Biblical femininity, I have written a few articles here, here, here and here
Don’t let your doubts push you into your old life and habits. Sarah also had doubts, and because of pressure, and her love towards Abraham, she allowed her husband to sleep with one of her servants named “Hagar” to give Abraham a child. It was one big mistake that caused much pain and suffering. So God says, don’t waver because of doubts. God’s got you.
For those who feel not pretty enough: there is one very powerful passage in Sarah’s story. Sarah, in her 60’s seemed to be extremely attractive. The King of Egypt’s officials saw her in the city, and instantly were impacted by her beauty. They decided to bring her to the King. When Pharaoh saw her, he did not hesitate to take her as his wife (of course he did not know that she was already married to Abraham). It is strange because kings would likely be inclined to take young women as wives, and Sarah blew him away. So keep taking care of yourself, both physically and spiritually. God is the One that can make you intensely pretty to the eyes of everyone and full of grace, especially to your husband, if you desire one. But believe in your heart. Don’t doubt.
There was a famine in the land. Abram went to Egypt to stay awhile because the famine was severe. When he was about to enter Egypt, Abram said to his wife Sarai, “I know that you’re a beautiful woman. When the Egyptians see you, they’ll say, ‘This is his wife!’ Then they’ll kill me but let you live. Please say that you’re my sister. Then everything will be alright for me, and because of you I will live.”
When Abram arrived in Egypt, the Egyptians saw how very beautiful his wife was. When Pharaoh’s officials saw her, they raved about her to Pharaoh, so Sarai was taken to Pharaoh’s palace. Everything went well for Abram because of her, and he was given sheep, cattle, donkeys, male and female slaves, and camels.
However, the Lord struck Pharaoh and his household with terrible plagues because of Sarai, Abram’s wife. Then Pharaoh called for Abram. “What have you done to me?” he asked. “Why didn’t you tell me that she’s your wife? Why did you say, ‘She’s my sister’ and allow me to take her for my wife? Here’s your wife! Take her and go!” Pharaoh gave his men orders concerning Abram. They sent Abram away with his wife and everything that he had.
Book of Genesis, chapter 12:10-20.
If you are not a believer in Jesus yet, you are also called by God to become one and to follow His ways! If you want to give your heart to Jesus :
HOW TO BECOME A BIBLICAL CHRISTIAN
God designed a universal and exclusive way to believe in Him. Jesus Christ says that God is Holy and Just. It other terms, God cannot tolerate evil and will punish it completely one day. The main and big issue, is that — you and I — already have accumulated a great deal of evil since we reached the age of responsibility, consciously or unconsciously. Therefore, we will be judged one day for our mistakes and sins. Have we ever lie, cheat, steal, hate etc? We will have to respond to God for it one day. Will we be found guilty or righteous, in front of such a Holy God? We will be found guilty and ready to be sent to perdition, hell. None can escape. God’s Holiness is too high and perfect to bypass.
However, Jesus-Christ says that God is also Love. God loves you so much, that He created a way to avoid you any judgement, and punishment. He doesn’t want you, to pay for any of the sin you have committed. So God Himself became a human being, through the Persona of Jesus-Christ. He then lived the morally perfect life we should all have lived. He committed no evil, not even once. Then, instead of punishing you for your sins and mistakes, God punished Himself. How did He do it? When Jesus was tortured and put on The Cross, He absorbed in His Body, all the possible evil you and I have committed. All of your sins were absorbed into Himself. When Jesus died, your sins died in His Body as well. When He resurrected from the dead, He proved who He claimed to be : God Almighty.
Now, God says that, if you believe from your heart, that Jesus Christ died and resurrected for you, you will be saved. What does it mean? Your relationship with God is established. You have Eternal life. You won’t have to go to Judgement day. Your past is no longer exists. All of your sins have been destroyed and canceled. The old you has passed away. You are a new creature, with a new heart, new desires, new goals with God and for God. If you want to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and don’t know what to say, I hope this little prayer will be helpful :
"Dear Jesus, I have heard about you, but I don't know you personally. I believe that you love me and that you died and resurected for me, to save me, so that I can be forever with you. Please, come into my heart, and lead me to you, reveal yourself to me so that I can be certain of you, I ask this in Jesus Name. Amen."
Now you are a saved person. If your faith is sincere, you will notice changes after changes in your life and in your heart. God is working through you. I encourage you to read one of the four biographies of Jesus in the Bible. Matthew, Mark, Luke or John, and get familiar with your Savior! God bless you!
