when I accepted the Lord, I held off telling my Hindu parents the truth for about 4 months. I didn't want to disappoint them, but my choice was made. I would rather disappoint them than disappoint my Lord. I heard the worst things a parent would say to their kid. "you might as well throw yourself under a bus..." and I broke down. I was annihilated by the reaction of the people I loved the most. At that moment in my darkness, I opened my bible and it landed on Psalm 27. "When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me in". After reading it I simply cried myself dry. I could not believe hoe my Lord loved me so much. He never left me and I had his embrace in my worst pain. I have only love for my parents. And after years of negativity from them, they are now slowly coming back in my life. I just want to say that I am loved. I am loved by you Lord! I am so loved that you gave me the most wonderful gift of a loving wife and beautiful kids. My life will always be for Jesus and to Jesus! Thank you, Lord!
1981 the world did NOT know, the world did NOT have the technology that it has today. Lionel mentioned that as one of the methods sought out to help solve some of the worlds problems. Little did he or anyone know technology IS a vehicle for some of the problems we have today. Technology IS being used by the powers that be against humanity. God who IS CREATOR of all this world and universe, all life is THEE SOLUTION. ALL PRAISES DUE UNTO HIM. Let's thank God in advance for healing n restoration of HIS Creations. Let it be so...
Jesus is love. One of my best song in 70s as a young man trying to make sense of the world . Not yet accepted Jesus as my lord and saviour. Still living in sins but song spoke to my heart. Became a Christian 15 years later and in 2024 committed Christian. Best song ever Jesus is Love which is what the world needs right now . Brothers and sisters in Christ , he is coming soon, stand firmly on his word. His coming is near.
Amen! It’s April 24, 2024! This world definitely needs Jesus Christ! Praying for this world! Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is the only ONE that can help us! ❤
It was 1981, and I went to the after prom as then, I was graduating from John F. Kennedy High School in Cleveland, Ohio. A lot of us had just heard that one of our classmates had been shot and killed by his father. We were all very sad. And we were at the after prom, they played this song, and the healing began. Some of us cried, a lot of us cried, but we began to feel better thanks to this song. I love this song, and I play it because I love Jesus, and Jesus loves me. I know! Thanks to Lionel Richie and the The Commodores. Be blessed!
my oldest brother, now deceased, was the biggest commodores fan back when. I remember him singing this song while hanging out the window of our 73 torino. God, I miss him.
