God desires a relationship with us—A Message shared by ‘Niseme Nini’
The song "Niseme Nini" begins with the cry of a heart that longs to speak to God, yet finds words too small to contain His greatness. It reflects the same spirit as when the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, and He gave them to Our Father. Prayer is lifting our hearts and minds to God with trust and love. "Niseme Nini" teaches us that it is God Himself who stirs this desire in us—He makes the first move, inviting us into His presence. Our response is gratitude, for every prayer begins with thanksgiving to the One who calls us close.
The song reminds us that prayer is not rushed. Just as a runner prepares before the race, so must we prepare before speaking with God. If we would prepare carefully for the visit of a great guest, how much more for the Lord of heaven and earth? In "Niseme Nini," we hear the invitation to prepare our hearts, making them clean and ready for God, because prayer is not casual conversation but an encounter with our loving Father.
The choir’s voice echoes the need for silence and space. God is everywhere, but we are not. We need a sacred place and a quiet heart to hear Him. The song shows us that prayer is more than words; it is also the silence where God speaks. Without stillness, distractions surround us—anger, worries, pride, and desires—yet the belt of silence holds them back so that God can fill us with His peace.
"Niseme Nini" also calls us to discipline: to set aside time, whether morning, afternoon, or night, to be with God. It is not about long speeches, but about faithfulness—creating a rhythm of prayer that opens us to His surprises. In this faithfulness, we discover we are God’s beloved children. Even when it feels like nothing is happening, the song assures us: God is present, shaping us in ways unseen.
The song becomes a mirror of our questions, teaching us that every doubt, every longing, and every hidden thought should be directed to God. He knows us already. He formed us with everything needed to respond to His love, and He will never stop sustaining us. "Niseme Nini" reminds us that the God who has carried us until today will carry us tomorrow, and His mercy is new every morning.
Prayer, as the song reflects, is not only speaking but also listening. In silence, we tune ourselves to God’s voice. Without it, we remain in our own noise. Silence is the vessel through which God pours His love. To pray as "Niseme Nini" teaches is to empty ourselves, so that He may fill us with His presence.
The song also inspires us to keep God with us throughout the day through small prayers of love—“Jesus, I love you,” “Holy Spirit, guide me,” “Mary, dear mother, direct me.” These small whispers, spoken anytime, keep us aware of His closeness. Like a heartbeat of faith, they carry us even in busy moments.
Finally, "Niseme Nini" leads us to the truth that God desires a relationship with us. In prayer, He reveals not only Himself but also who we are. We begin to see our faults and our strengths, our dependence on Him, and the wonder of His mercy. In the end, like the saints, we learn to say with humility and awe: “God is all; I am nothing.”
