People need the Lord

Not exactly the 1st entry I had in mind for 2009, but I have to write this:

"People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize that we must give our lives,
for people need the Lord."

This song came me to my mind while I was listening to the radio this morning. The DJs were talking about the few headlines from CNN today, mainly on wars and mishaps. Than he goes on to ask the listeners to sms on what would make them happy for the new year.

At the start of the year I think most people still missed the point of what they want in life. People always talk about being happy but we know at the end of it happiness alone can't save us. People need the Lord.

Even as a Christian I am not always happy, even the bible says so too, and we are actually informed to be ready for trials or, in layman terms, for more unhappiness. But I am deeply grateful that I have the Lord Jesus, who at the end of broken dreams He's the open door.

New year plans? Of course I wish to be happy, but ontop of everything may His will be done, that the gospel be preach to more people and that my brothers and sisters will heed God's calling to serve Him with all their hearts and souls, reaching out to more people.

For people need the Lord.
