accidentally in love.. counting crows lyrics


So she said what's the problem baby


What's the problem I don't know


Well maybe I'm in love (love)


Think about it every time


I think about it


Can't stop thinking 'bout it


How much longer will it take to cure this


Just to cure it cause I can't ignore


it if it's love (love)


Makes me wanna turn around


and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love


Come on, come on


Turn a little faster


Come on, come on


The world will follow after


Come on, come on


Cause everybody's after love


So I said I'm a snowball running


Running down into the spring


that's coming all this love


Melting under blue skies


Belting out sunlight


Shimmering love


Well baby I surrender


To the strawberry ice cream


Never ever end of all this love


Well I didn't mean to do it


But there's no escaping your love


These lines of lightning


Mean we're never alone, Never alone, no, no


Come on, Come on


Move a little closer


Come on, Come on


I want to hear you whisper


Come on, Come on


Settle down inside my love


Come on, come on


Jump a little higher


Come on, come on


If you feel a little lighter


Come on, come on


We were once


Upon a time in love


We're accidentally in love


Accidentally in love [x7]


Accidentally


I'm In Love, I'm in Love,


I'm in Love, I'm in Love,


I'm in Love, I'm in Love,


Accidentally [x2]


Come on, come on


Spin a little tighter


Come on, come on


And the world's a little brighter


Come on, come on


Just get yourself inside her


Love ...I'm in love

penuh dgn kasih... (Lukas 7:36-50)


Intel inside ! Jargon ini sering kita baca di banyak casing komputer di seluruh dunia. Ada prosesor Intel di dalam yang menjamin primanya kinerja komputer tersebut. Ini pesan yang hendak disampaikan.


perempuan berdosa dalam lukas 7:36-50, menunjukan kasih yang besar kepada Yesus. Yesus mngontreskannya dengan sikap dingin simon, seorang Farisi dan tuan rumah yang mengundang-Nya. Yesus melakukannya dengan menunjukan 3 bukti; yakni bagaimana si wanita membasuh kaki-Nya, mencium kaki-Nya, dan meminyaki kaki-Nya.
Yesus menjelaskan mengapa hal ini bisa terjadi. Simon, meski memiliki pengetahuan tentang logika perempuan, tetapi dalam hati ia belum mengenal siapa sebenarnya Yesus dan anugerah pengampunanNya yang ajaib. Sedangkan perempuan itu telah menerima anugerah pengampunan-Nya dan memiliki iman yang hidup kepada Yesus yang telah menyelamatkan jiwanya.
Alkitab menegaskan anugerah pengamounan Yesus yang selalu tersedia bagi kita, manusia yang berdosa. Maukah kita menerima pengampunan itu dengan iman kepada-Nya? jika kita telah menerimanya, sikap seperti apakah yang sering kita tunjukan dalam hidup kita? sikap dingin simon atau kasih yang melimpah seperti perempuan berdosa itu?
dengan hati yang menghayati anugerah pengampunan dan iman di dalam diri kita (inside), kiranya sebagai orang percaya kita dapat menunjukan kasih yang melimpah keluar (outside). bagaimana kinerja kasih kita hari ini?-

kalau hewan saja bisa berterima kasih,, mengapa kita tidak?




ada seorang ibu yang menemukan seekor singa di sebuah hutan di cali, kolombia. singa itu terluka parah dan hampir saja mati. si ibu membawanya pulang dan merawatnya dengan penuh kasih hinggah sembuh. kemudian ia menyerahkan singa itu ke kebun binatang setempat supaya mendapat perawatan yang lebih baik.




suatu hari ibu itu mengunjungi singa itu. melihat ibu penyelamatnya datang, serta merta singa itu berdiri dari dalam kerangkeng, ia meraih dan memeluk erat ibu itu dengan kedua kaki depannya. si ibu pun mengusap-usap kepala singa itu.




seekor binatang buas pun tahu berterimakasih kepada penyelamatnya. lalu bagaimana dengan manusia? mirip denggan si ibu yang datang menyelamatkan singa yang terluka itu, Tuhan Yesus datang ke dunia untuk menyelamatkan manusia yang terluka-bahkan telah mati karena dosa-dosa yang mengerikan. Namun, apa yang kemudian Dia terima dari manusia? justru penolakan dan penyaliban! sungguh ironis




kita tentunya tidak ingin mengulangi kesalahan manusia dua ribu tahun yang lalu. bayangkan kondisi kita yang terluka dan tanpa harapan; kematian seolah-olah tinggal menunggu waaktu. lalu Tuhan Yesus datang; menolong, merawat, dan menyelamatkan kita, sehingga kita benar-benar sembuh. kita dipulihkan. adakah hidup kita sudah menunjukan rasa terimakasih yang menyukakan hatiNya?

more than words-westlife lyrics



Saying I love you


Is not the words


I want to hear from you


It's not that


I want you


Not to say


But if you only knew


How easyIt would be to


Show me how you feel


More than words


Is it all you have to do


To make it real


The you wouldn't


Have to say


That you love me


I'd already know


What would you do


If my heart


Was torn in two


More than words


To show you feel


That your love


For me is real


What would you say


If I took


Those words away


Then you couldn't


Make things new


Just by saying


I love you


More than words


It more than what you say its the things you do (oh yeah)


More than words


It more than what you say its the things you do (oh yeah)


Now that I've tried to


Talk to you


And make you understand


All you have to do


Is close your eyes


And just reach out your hands


And touch me


Hold me close


Don't ever let me go


More than words


Is all I ever


Needed you to show


Then you wouldn't


Have to say


That you love me


Cause I already know


What would you do


If my heartWas torn in two


More than words


To show you feel


That your love


For me is real


What would you say


If I took


Those words away


Then you couldn't


Make things new


Just by sayingI love you

friendship.....

Friendship is...

a close bond between two or more people.
There is nothing in this world more valuable than having someone who cares about you. When it's three am and the world seems like it is going to end, you can always call a friend. They're probably grumble, tell you to go back to bed, and show up at your door a few hours later with an arm full of bagels and fresh brewed coffee.

Beyond your family, the special people you choose to become close to are your friends. They laugh with you, at you, about you, but only when your present to witness this in good humor. Their goal is to brighten your day when your shadow is casted in blue.
No matter if its your next door neighbor, or your grade school penpal, you can tell a friend anything. A true friend won't tell your secrets, listens with an open ear, and doesn't pass judgement over the milk you spilled. When the storm clouds have gathered over your head, and the rain begins to fall. You can call upon your friendships to spread an umbrella over your head. Sometimes the sound of a familiar voice can bring forth a little sunlight on your day.
If you slipped in the mud the hand of friendship will pull out. Maybe even throw down a coat to protect your sandal straped feet from soil. Friendship has a way of dropping everything to aid you in your time of need. It's always there, close by, dispite its physical distance.
You lend your favorite shirt for the sake of a first date. From hair style, to shoe color you give free advice. You stay up late, wait, waiting for the night's review. All at the cost of a good book instead of that great sale going on at the mall. Freindship can't always afford a phone. But it can produce a double date on occassion.
During our lifetime friendships will sprout, grow, and blossom. Some will fade out, change, and just run out of water and die. The number of friendships gained is up to you. If your a social butterfly than your friendship belt bares many notches, but if your reserved then perhapsh you only have a few tucked in your pants. How many friendships we have are no as important as the depth of the friendships we endure. I'll always be friends with the people I hung out with in high school, but where are they now?
There is one friendship you will value more than the others - the best friend. Thinking of it this way. You hit the jackpot! A true friend, one you can share all your secrets with, is worth more than a million dollars.
Now that's a lot of boxes of tissues.
So when you look at the people around you,and you think to yourself, "Friendship is..." the answer is diverse. The friendships I hold today are far from the ones I had ten, fifteen years ago. While some of the people may be the same, new ones are waiting to cross the threshold from acquintance hall. It's knowing when to let them in that defines us.
Let friendship post bond in your life and free you from the cold swirl of loneliness. One great friendship is worth three hundred acquintances. The number is yours, here is a quarter - now get calling.

what is love ?

There is a lot of misunderstanding about what the Bible means when it talks about "love".
The New Testament was written in Greek. Ancient Greeks recognized that there are different types of love. As a result there are several words in Greek that we translate today into the single word of love. The two most important are:

Phileo - means to have an affection (sentiment, passion or feeling) for. A fondness based in the heart. What the Greeks meant by Phileo love is what we normally think of the words "brotherly love" meaning today.

Agape - means to choose to seek the best for others. This is a love based in the mind. We can chose to show agape love by actively thinking about, and deciding how we act toward other people. Agape is the word used when the Bible talks about Christian love for one another. Agape love is talking about our behavior towards others, not our feelings.

Phileo love is about feelings. Agape love is about how we act toward others.

The problem we have is that, unlike the Bible, we do not distinguish between these two types of love. We know that we are called to love one another, but we think that means we must like one another and accept everything other people say and do. The Bible talks about agape love, and we think it means phileo love.

A good example is homosexuality. Christians love (agape) homosexuals. What this means is that we want the best for homosexuals. Christians treat homosexuals the same as they treat anyone else -- wanting the best that can be had for everyone. However, that does not mean Christians accept homosexuality as being a good lifestyle. Homosexuality is a sin. God hates sin.
