I m singing joyfully

 

 

I’m singing joyfully because you are my Lord
You have created me hided in the secret
You have a plan for plan for me to live on this earth
That s why I am standing here for to glorify
You give me hope in hopeless situations
You give me strength when I am weak
When I am sad you give me consolation
In the darkness you turn on a lamp
You gave me a place where I can live
I can enjoy the whole nature
So many flowers are talking about you
The little butterflies formed fearful with thy hand
And when I have doubts and and asking myself
if you are there and take care of me
Your Holy Spirit is answering all questions
He is leading me through life and transforming me.

What does sister mean when they say “You have created me hidden in the secret”? And what are these secrets?

When parents expect a baby, the greatest secret is, if it will be a boy or a girl and how it looks like.

But God prepared me in the body of my mother, he knew before I was born everything about me.

How does sister feel about your purpose on Earth, as stated in the line “You have a plan for me to live on this earth”?

Every one of us came with a purpose to this Earth. God has planned our life and the only thing we have to do is to agree to this purpose, believe, that all our days have a meaning and search for Gods will, when we take decisions.

Some people have a great ministry, like a young Jewish girl in the Old Testament. She had no parents and lived with her old uncle, but the purpose for her life was, to become the Queen in the country where the Jewish lived as slaves and to save her people from persecution and death. Her story is written in the book of Esther in the bible. The name of God or the name of God are not mentioned one time in that book, but God moved the people and the circumstances, so that all came to a good end and the Jewish remember this time with the Hanukah feast.

In what ways has sister experienced hope from God in difficult situations?

There were several situations in my life when I just did no knew how life will go on, I only mention one now:

The situation was, I gave up my job and wanted to go on to the university, everything was arranged with a room to rent and all that I would need as a student in the other town and on the day before I moved, I got a letter from the university, that they did not take me as a student, because I lacked 0,1 points in my bachelor degree.

I was so sad and I fasted. The same day, in the evening I got a call of an enterprise which offered me a job, so I went on working and went on studying by distance on the distant university.

How does sister describe the strength you receive from God when they are weak? Could you give an example detail?

Sometimes, when there is a conflict and I don t know to react or I don t know how to defend me in a difficult situation I need the strength and the wisdom of God.

Then I relax in the Lord, I am sleeping well and do not think about the things which could cause a headache or more.

God gives me the strength to react with wisdom and often it is better to wait until the Lord gives a clear word about how to solve the problem.

Can you explain the significance of the phrase “In the darkness you turn on a lamp” in the context of the song?

Often people think about sad situations when they talk about darkness, but I think, a very dark situation is, when you have to take a decision and you don t know what to do, especially when it is a loose-loose decision.

Then we can go to Psalm 119 which says: Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

God gives us a light, what to do at the moment with the lamp and a light for to know where our path will lead us when we go on.

Having these lights clear and bright, we don t have fear, because we know how life will go on.

What is the significance of the place where sister lives and enjoys nature, as mentioned in the lyrics? Like you observed more than 30 wild rabbits in your garden, could you also feel so much glory from that view?

The nature is a gift God created for the human beings.

With every plant and every animal, he thought of us, when he created it, with the purpose that we should enjoy it.

looking at it should make us curious about whom was it, who has created it and lead us to the God creator.

So, I like to observe the pretty things in nature and give thanks to God, that he has allowed to see it.

How do the flowers and butterflies in the song represent God’s presence and care for sister?

Jesus said, don t worry, because when God takes care about the flowers and the birds, he will take care of us, too.

It is always nice to see, how pretty the flowers are, which have no other purpose than to talk about God with their presence and to see how birds always find food and material to build their nest.

So, I can be sure, that God will provide to me, too, even world economy and political situations on earth go from bad to worse.

How does sister relationship with God help you overcome doubts and questions about your faith?

Doubts and questions are normal. The good question is only, whom do you ask for to get an answer. Often it is not good, to ask friends or other people, it is better to go directly to God and ask him and he promises, that every prayer will be answered.

How does the Holy Spirit guide and transform sister’s this year life, according to the lyrics?

The Holy Spirit lives in us. He warns us and leads us, when we have to make decisions or will come in a dangerous situation. He helps us to pray and he remembers us on the words that Jesus talked.

2023 is about to ending, sister please make a summary of this year. What moved you the most and what made you grow further?

There are several things.
Our podcast means a lot to me and I am happy that we can produce it.
Restoring family relationships moved me a lot, too.
And about my further plans I will tell when they are fulfilled.
