hive open mic week 192-niko njotorohardjo-sgala puji syukur(cover song)by:samuelstifen

hello friends of the #openmic community
I'm @samuelstifen, how are you all friends?
I hope that God will bless all of us in all our work and other activities and hopefully we will stay healthy and it will not be obvious that soon we will welcome the new year. I hope that in the new year we will enjoy the day with the people we love, our family, our lover or our friends.

and now the open mic has entered its 162nd week.
For Hive Open Mic 192, the theme follows: "Grateful." This theme was chosen by : @wallay .

This theme is extraordinary. I feel that I can give a little testimony that I used to be a person who was never grateful, always turning on the situation, in terms of economics, work and my life. Finally I know that with everything I am facing, it is a test that God has given me. believe that every test he gave me made me learn how to be grateful for being a human and every condition I faced. And finally my economy also improved quite a bit and life had more purpose in the future and had a plan for the future. In the end, what I faced was a test. from God so that I could be grateful, and that had a big influence on me after I had a better situation. Finally I knew that feeling grateful was very good.
and for all of us, let us be grateful for everything that God has given us.

and by the way, I've seen this week's event, there have been many musicians who have given truly extraordinary performances.
I myself am still confused after entering week 162 as to what songs I should bring.
I keep looking for references from YouTube, but I don't fully know the songs given.
and I remember the song when I went to Sunday school at church when I was little
I finally performed the song

What I sing is entitled All Praise and Gratitude.
This song was created by Rev. Dr. Ir Niko Njotorahardjo
Rev. Dr. Ir. Niko Njotorahardjo is a servant of God, a pastor under the Indonesian Bethel Church Synod, and is the Pastor of GBI Jalan Jend. Gatot Subroto, Senayan - Jakarta and GBI Jalan Sukawarna, Bandung. He is also known to have released phenomenal spiritual song albums in Indonesia.

Even though this song is very simple and simple to sing, I think this song is very good and the meaning that can be interpreted is truly extraordinary.
I also brought my own version of this song and I also slowed down the tempo of the song, I hope my friends like it.

and why do I say this song is amazing?

because in this song I can interpret all forms of whatever God gives us, perhaps from every hardship that befalls us, sadness that happens to us, and worries for us.
For me, that's a test from God, as I just wrote above. Whatever form it takes, it's a test from God.
God wants to see from his servants whether his servants can still be grateful, whether his servants can accept all the hardships, whether his servants will still be loyal to him.
he just wanted to see how far his servant's struggle would go.
All these tests can also be missed. We, as humans, whose lives always want to go fast, don't accept the process of each of our efforts.

Therefore, every test from God must be there, how strong we are to go through it and how we can accept it with gratitude from our hearts.
and God does not make tests that His servants cannot pass.
The test given by God, he already knows our strength to pass it himself.
So don't worry or worry every time we have a situation that really falls and makes us sad.

and my message is for all of us to remain grateful and get through it without complaining. God will replace it with more than what you have now.

and maybe that's all I can give in my presentation of the theme and meaning for this week's song.
If this song when I sing it is not good, I think maybe it was my best effort. But I will give something better for the next week. So maybe that's all I can give and thank you also to my friends who always support me continuously. .I am very grateful to have friends like you.and may God bless us all.
THANK YOU
