Firstly, yaysome for off duty again this week. And today, our dear Senior Pastor Richard Toh and his wife Pat Shum is here to teach today. This week's topic is "The Lord is Compassionate."
Remember that despite the prophet's plea to convince the Israelites to turn from their evil ways, they still won't listen and was brought to exile to the land they don't know. Well, God is angry with his people, but he always never forget His covenant with Abraham and his love to the people. So, sending them to a land far far away =/= He hates them forever. "For anger and sorrow lasts for the night, but joy and happiness lasts forever."
It goes roughly the same with parents. They may be angry with their kids for wrong doing, yet they never forget their love and ever-growing (NOT lasting) relationship with their kids. For things may go "physically" cold at first, but somewhere, deep inside their hearts, their love for one another is still here.
For reference, Isaiah 54 is good for you. =P
That's all for this week.
