If life were as easy as we want if we could predict the future, I would now have a coffee sitting with friends in front of the TV
I’d look at birds like I never did. I’d give my grandparents a big hug. I’d say I love you who I never thought of, maybe that’s what the universe expects of us?
- I heard the single released by Whindersson Nunes in partnership with gospel singer Priscila Alc’ntara.
- The song was composed by the comedian.
- Who made it clear that he was battering depression.
- Even though he made a lot of money and became a methodical celebrity.
- An existential void in the child.
Whindersson was a Christian and a member of the Assembly of God, today he says that he is a man of faith, yet freed from the bonds of religiosity, loves gospel music and, as a result, invited Priscrilla to do a duet with him. She, in turn, was known as a children’s presenter who delivered Playstation. After leaving the show and growing up, he began a career as a singer and delighted many people beyond the segment of which he is a part.
Although the song has a beautiful melody and the duo fits well, even if Whindersson is not a professional singer, there is something about it that disappoints me deeply. It’s precisely that of saying that “the universe expects something from us. “, there may be a before, but the suggestion is present and then I wonder: why would the Universe expect anything from us?
If we move on to a purely rational description, we would say that the Universe is only matter in motion and inanimate matter, it is worth mentioning, now if there is a mystical connotation behind the term, the Universe ends up being elevated to the category of God. So do we have a very old worldview known as monism?that is, there is no division between Divinity and Nature, everything is one.
I don’t think the comedian noticed while writing his song. But, even unintentionally, the letter expresses a worldview and is not correct. Christians should not sing about “what the Universe expects of us” because the Universe is indifferent. Now, the God revealed in the scriptures is very attentive to what we do. Expect something from us. He expects us to keep his statutes and love him in spirit and truth. God gave us a Word and it is through it that we must be guided.
Humanity always seeks redemption. He lives wanting to stick to something that gives him existential value, it is said that the universe, energy, nature, destiny, signs and so many other elements can answer the ultimate questions of life. finds the ideal answer only for the God of Scripture who is not silent. Therefore, loving God above all is the first of the commandments, for it is by loving Him as we are. It is by appreciating that we realize ourselves; it’s by worshipping him that we shut up.
Don’t expect anything from the Universe, expect everything from God, whether it’s blessing or curse. What He demands of us is in Escrituras. Es vital to be attentive to what the Lord says. The one with the ears, listen! I wish from the bottom of my heart that the singer and the comedian understand this and come not to the created thing, but to the Creator of all things.
