My throat was parched i was desperate for You Lord QT was unfulfilling Cell Group, unattended due to'imaging' My walk with You Lord... well, let's say the Israelites had better time In the Desert for 40 years...
But Lord You have not forgotten me You led me to the quiet waters and made me lie down there... in the green pastures i had my nourishment
my walk is feeble and weak my cry is nothing more than a whisper but You were patient with me Lord You steadied me, walking by my side encouraging me, comforting me even though i entered dry land on my own accord
so once again, i enter into Your presence Lord and drench myself in the showering of Your love till the parched land is revived and the desert begins to flower again.
All who are weary, All who are weak Come to the Fountain Dip your heart in the Stream of Life Let the pain and the sorrow Be washed away In the waves of His mercy As deep cries out to deep.....
Come Lord Jesus Come
Lord I am so weary, unable to worship you In Spirit and in Truth, all the time. Is it my weariness that is robbing me of Your presence or is there any hidden sin that causes You to hide Your Face from me?
I sensed communion with the Lord but it was not me I felt the touching of the Spirit but it was not on me I desperately seek Your Face Yes, that was indeed me!
The lyrics was like a mirror to my heart Hungry Lord I come to you for i know You satisfy i am empty, oh so empty Lord but Your love does not run dry so i come to You Lord... i come to You
Yet i was not able to worship You Lord, that evening, Amidst the music and worshippers around me
Well, we all know that , dun we, that our Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, really loves listening to us and hears us. I've been frustrated by many things, stressed by numerous events and cried out to the Lord till my voice is coarse.
When oh when will my situation improve? How, pray tell, can things improve? I found out that when I am trying least hard When I give up and lift up & finally utter, from my heart... "Thy will be done"....
I feel like Jacob sometimes, wrestling with God till the early hours of the morning Begging for a blessing When He always has the best plans for us Plans to prosper us and not to harm us Plans to give us hope.
I just received great news Something I was so hoping to get A small part, a tiny part in a movie Hey I got it! Praise the Lord. Did i ask it for ego? for fame?
No
Believe it or not I asked the Lord to provide me with extra income and this is what i get!
God has never failed to give surprises or provide solutions that more than satisfy our needs My problem is learning NOT to struggle with Him...
Wow! my blog... not just A blog, but my blog. Why? because i wanna feel young again? C'mon, don't you? Reading through the blogs of my uh hmmm, daughters' , and that of their friends, i realize how effective it is as a journaling tool.
But perhaps what got me off my butt, is strangely, the sudden death of a young girl, someone i don't know, someone i've never met and now, i will never have the pleasure of meeting.
what is it that's so crushing her hurting her that makes her enact that infamous phrase "Goodbye cruel world" she's only 20, for crying out loud was there no one whom she could confide in was there anything that could be done was there anyone that could have done.... something? anything?
What would have been, no, could have been a wonderful life was deemed nothing to her, not even worth a single minute more.
All she took that fateful morning, was her pkt of fags and her life.
What she left behind was her hurt
frustrations
anger, no doubt
and many bewildered friends.
I read her blog, and though my eyes were not wet my heart was...
It's tough growing up in this society where emphasis is placed on material gains academic acheivements social status
gone are the days when students seek career advisors to help them decide on university courses when they chose subjects based on their interest and grades and not on the potential paychecks
Now, they start fretting in P3 for streaming in P4 P6 for PSLE, Sec 2 for streaming Sec 4 for 'O's (if u are considered smart) or Sec 5 if you are deemed 'normal' - indeed!
((HA! incidentally, 'O' levels were devised to be taken at Sec 5, after following a 5 yr curriculum)) So all you Sec 5's out there.... You ARE OK! YOU ARE NORMAL! Trust ME!!
Why is it so important to be successful in the material sense? the haves Vs the have-nots Ambitions Vs simpler designs on life?
May be that's why i am not successful i am not a high-flier but i'm glad
for i would not want to miss a small kind act from one stranger to another a gentle smile a little chuckle a passing cloud
i would not want to miss God's gentle whispers in the quietness of the day in the stillness of the night
i would not want to miss kicking leaves with my loved ones sharing jokes watching sunsets wiping tears growing up loving.....
Thank you dear stranger, ironic, isn't it, that your demise a loss to many who cared for you it's also a gain to these same people and more:
things are put back into perspectives friendships forged and forgotten now remembered and rekindled priorities blurred and blocked now cleared and un-cluttered
