I went to a chinese church with a local girl from HKBU today. I was really suprised because it was all teenagers and college students...their adult church meets at another location on Sunday mornings. It was all in Cantonese (that is not english!) except for two of the worship songs which were in english. Knees to the ground, hands lifted high, cries unto God, a beautiful thing!
I had a revelation today....languages are amazing! After they got through the english songs they played Hillsongs' Worthy is the Lamb in Mandarine. It was during this time of mandarine language song that I found God worthy worship. While the church sung unto God in mandarine I joined the chorus in heavenly bliss, in English. At that moment the nations came to peace, the peoples found their purpose, and our God smiled. A beautiful song!
Revelation 7:9
After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from ever nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb....
A beautiful thing
A beautiful song
A beautiful sight
A Beautiful Church
No my Love! The Honor is all mine!
