The Wonderful Cross

When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died
My richest gain I count but loss
And pour contempt on all my pride

See from his head, his hands, his feet
Sorrow and love flow mingled down
Did ever such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown

O the wonderful cross, O the wonderful cross
Bids me come and die and find that I may truly live
O the wonderful cross, O the wonderful cross
All who gather here by grace draw near and bless
Your name

Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were an offering far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul, my life, my all

Cum implineste Dumnezeu dorul nostru suprem?

Iata cum:

*Se potriveste perfect cu insasi natura noastra,

*ne implineste dorul de relatii interpersonale,

*in omniscienta Lui este telul cautarii noastre dupa cunoastere,

*in fiinta Lui perfecta este refugiul de orice teama,

*in sfintenia Lui este adevarata temelie a cautarii noastre dupa dreptate,

*in dragostea Lui infinita este ratiunea sperantei noastre de mantuire,

*in creativitatea Lui infinita este atat sursaimaginatiei noastre creative cat si frumusetea absoluta pe care cautam sa o reflectam cand cream noi insine

James W. Sire

Un verset la care sa meditam :

Astazi si intotdeauna vom crede
Promisiunea lui Dumnezeu din 2 Corinteni 12:9:

Traducerea Cornilescu:

" Şi El mi -a zis:
,,Harul Meu îţi este de ajuns;
căci puterea Mea în slăbiciune este făcută desăvîrşită.``

Deci mă voi lăuda mult mai bucuros
cu slăbiciunile mele,
pentruca puterea lui Hristos să rămînă în mine. "

Traducere Ortodoxa:

" Şi mi-a zis:
Îţi este de ajuns harul Meu,
căci puterea Mea se desăvârşeşte în slăbiciune.

Deci, foarte bucuros, mă voi lăuda
mai ales întru slăbiciunile mele,
ca să locuiască în mine puterea lui Hristos. "

Traducere NIV:

" But he said to me,
"My grace is sufficient for you,
for my power is made perfect in weakness."

Therefore I will boast all the more gladly
about my weaknesses,
so that Christ's power may rest on me."

TraducereTM:( vs 9 si 10)

" My grace is enough; it's all you need.

My strength comes into its own in your weakness.

Once I heard that, I was glad to let it happen.

I quit focusing on the handicap
and began appreciating the gift.

It was a case of Christ's strength
moving in on my weakness.

Now I take limitations in stride,
and with good cheer,

these limitations that cut me down to size—abuse, accidents, opposition, bad breaks.

I just let Christ take over! And so the weaker I get, the stronger I become. "

Traducere AB:

" But He said to me,

My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully];

for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness.

Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities,

that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me!"
