Have we forgotten?
Have we been so busy with everything that we have no time, to even sit down on a chair
to put down your things, just stop to have a rest
Have we forgotten that all this while someone longs to hear
that sweet voice of yours resonate, the most beautiful voice; He fearfully and wonderfully made.
He's been waiting for quite some time now...
Have we forgotten that all this while someone longs to see
the delicate smile on your face, pouring your heart out, crying out your pain
Oh, its somewhat like the rain...
Have we forgotten that all this while someone longs to receive
the love you first gave when you gave your life to Him
He's been waiting, look to the cross and see Him dying..
Have we forgotten to give?
surrogates + updates
I highlighted my day today by watching surrogates with pete!
After the things that have happened recently leading up from yesterday, i felt i learnt alittle something about God's grace and what it meant to experience that grace today. praise Him.
Taking something away from me for a while to teach me a valuable lesson and then blessing me in double amounts back in return.
Some thoughts that came to me yesterday:
How am I appreciating the things/people around me right now? Do I have to wait till something happens before I show concern? Are we humans built to act only when the need arises? What has happened to our soul?
If everything in life that has happened up till now is a significant process of growth and my process of sanctification, there must a reason why God wired me to be who I am today in my thoughts, feelings, actions and nature. And this is no accident. I'm not lousy in anyway. I can't be who somebody wants me to be. I am myself and God created me, me. Unique and created for his pleasure and plans.
There is only one real place of rest. and that is in God. People can try to understand but God fully understands. My mode of communication with God is special and unique.
Whats the reason why am I finding myself rushing to places, not getting enough rest, possibly neglecting the people around me.
Trials are good because they allow me an opportunity to grow. Surrendering is really admitting that I'm worthless so God can work something out in me.
1 Corinthians 13:13 also spoke to me heaps while i took some time off yesterday...
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
We can have faith in our God, hope that all will go well with our lives, but if we do not love Him, we are nothing.
If we profess we love God and not take actions to love Him. then we really don't know what we're saying in the first place. Loving means spending time. Time doesn't fly at all. We just need to slow it down.
Its kinda messy but thats how I am. Everything out.
Martina Mcbride - Love don't cost a dime
It's a big world to walk through, honey
And if you got love, you don't need money
You're gonna get caught in the toughest times
You hold each other and you hold a life
You kiss on the mornings when the sun won't shine
And that don't cost a dime
It's a big world to walk through, honey
If you got love, you don't need money
You can't get lost in the dollar signs
You take each night one day at a time
You live on water until it turns into wine
And that don't cost a dime
Come out of bed and step outside
Look up ahead it's all blue sky
You already have what really matters
Most in this life
It's a big world to walk through, honey
If you got love, you don't need money
You're gonna get caught in the toughest times
You hold each other and you hold a life
For what it's worth there's my advice
And that don't cost a dime
(Don't cost a dime)
And that don't cost a dime
(Don't cost a dime)
Yeah, love don't cost a dime
(Don't cost a dime)
Yeah, yeah

That old feeling
I get that old feeling
usually i think i know when it's coming
I'll close my eyes to wait and see
hoping that at the first scene, you'll be there, to welcome me
Alas, I was wrong
That old feeling
it hope it won't go away
often they come in pictures,
other times marching in, you could say, just like soldiers in a parade
That old feeling
it gets familliar, more and more by the days
That old feeling
i hope it won't go away
Once, I saw you smile at me, another i think you waved
But before I could see your face, always you drifted away
That old feeling
I wished it was here to stay
If i could have another minute with you, i thought
What would I choose to say
On the surface
There is tension.
Surface tension.
it gets intense.
there's no pretence.
i'm trying my best to form a sentence
don't sentence me to prison.
