Treasure each other

By Daughter Of Sarah -
A song I feel every one should listen to. Incredibly moving lyrics.

I feel that in today's society, too many people allow the "D word" creep up into their vocab.

It is Ian's and my firm believe that for a marriage to work, the word "Divorce" must not even exist in the vocab. It cannot be considered a solution or an option to fall into. We have never included that word in our dictionary before - even when we paktor-ed (dated).

It is also our belief that a marriage takes two to clap in unison and three to have a marriage that cannot be broken (Christ being the third party)- hence the title of this blog.

A marriage is something you stand by - it is not a contract but a covenant - a promise to treasure each other, to forgive each other even when it is hard to, to love each other even in the middle of a fight, and a promise to grow old together.

There is a part of the song below that says "Love is not a fight, but it is worth fighting for." How true.




Love is not a place
to come and go as we please
It's a house we enter in
then commit to never leave

So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
Work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees

Love is a shelter
in a raging storm
Love is peace
in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave;
May God send angels to guard the door
No, Love is not a fight
but its something worth fighting for

To some love is a word
that they can fall into.
But when they're falling out
keeping that word is hard to do

Love is a shelter
in a raging storm
Love is peace
in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave;
May God send angels to guard the door
No, Love is not a fight
but its something worth fighting for

Love will come to save us
If we'll only call
He will ask nothing from us
but demand we give our all

Love is a shelter
in a raging storm
Love is peace
in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave;
May God send angels to guard the door
No, Love is not a fight
but its something worth fighting for.

Cause I Will Fight For You
Would You Fight For Me
It's Worth Fighting For.

    Thanks for posting this up. :)

    Yet, love is wisdom too. And it is wisdom... or vision... that only God can provide because it is in spite of all things else that we see with our flesh eyes. I read somewhere that, contrary to the cliche, "love is blind", love is also seeing something that others do not.

    Yet sometimes, wise love can be painful too...

Sermon 31/08/2008 - Pastor Lian (NCC)

By -
Pastor Lian has been in NCC for 20 years!! Joke- There was this really old obese lady who was so fat she had serious heart problem. One day she had heart attack and brought her to hospital and she died on op table. She came face to face with God and said sheepishly I guess my time is up… and God said no you are still young you are only 50 plus and you are a NCCer - u can live till 120 years. She woke up and told the doctor and told the doc she just want to have something else done. So she had an extreme makeover. It took a few mths and as she stepped out of the hospital, a car knocked her down and she died - God was as surprised to see her as she was to be back there. Just then, the angels sheepishly admitted - they could not recognise her. Lol. ---------------------------------------------------------- From young, Pastor Prince has always said - "God said", "God can" - he has always possessed a good opinion of God. 14 years from moving to The Rock location - 2 x 7 ...

What the Anointing Oil is & Prayer for the Anointing Oil

By -
Pastor Prince from New Creation Church has recently called upon the church members to use the Anointing Oil to bless every area of our lives. He had gone to Tiberius Church in Indonesia and seen how the anointing oil has made a difference to the Christians there. The senior pastor of Tiberius Church, Pastor Yesaya Pariadji, had been led by the Father to get his church to use the anointing oil radically. He had a vision of a biblical quotation when he was still not yet a Christian - he had no idea what it was. When he became a pastor, he finally understood what it meant. He felt very led to get his church to use anointing oil so they went ahead and used it; their testimonials are plentiful and amazing. Pastor Prince being a huge believer in Sola Scriptura, decided to discern further, pray about this and read up on the scriptural references on Anointing Oil before telling us to use it. He believes in doing things biblically - meaning we can be radical in our faith (for example our churc...

You have Comeback Power - Joel Osteen (Transcript) Pt 1

By Daughter Of Sarah -
I like to start with something funny - I heard about this pastor, he decided to skip church one Sunday and go play golf. He told his assistant he wasn't feeling well and he drove to another city's gold course there so no one would recognise him. He teed off at the first hole. All of a sudden a huge gust of wind caught his ball, carried it an extra hundred yard and blew it right into the hole for a 421 yard hole-in-one. The angel looked at God and asked, "What didcha do that for?" God smiled and said, "Who's he gonna tell?" Alright. Hold up your bible. Say it like you mean it - “This is my bible I am what it says I am, I have what it says I have, I can do what it says I can do. Today I will be taught the Word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus’s name.” God bless you. I want to talk to you today about how you have Comeback power. We all face situations that seem like they could bury us - the...
