Just came back from ZW's mum's funeral.. i cant say i'm close to her,but when i saw the grief.. how hard ZW and Wendy tried to fight their tears when they went thru the ritual.. my tears just cant help flooding my eyes.. if you think i'm emotional, well..my sister cried too..
Going thru the ritual, my sister was surprised that i offered the incense. Not because i'm denying God's Word, but this is my last act of respect for the demise. What is a burning incense mean to your heart? I believe God looks right at your heart, not your actions. Though we have been given the liberty to choose not to hold or offer, but does that bring glory to God? Not compromising, i just want to share their grief and respect their mother.. and hopefully they will find strength in the Lord to go thru this grief.
Romans 12:15
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
1 Samuel 16:7
The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.
