Soon to come

fhoosh... a puff of dust flies up....

" I will slowly clear up the cobwebs haging on this blog..."

Well just as it says a post is soon to come to update all who have been reading... so hang on..

I am quoting something i saw one Miss Angeline Teh's blog.. that speaks my hearts plea and cry ...

Lord,

I'm sorry for the things i've done
The things that has grieved Your heart

I'm sorry that I've wandered off
In search of another's heart

--

I'm broken and I've hurt some along the way
To get to this point of realization

I'm sorry
I didnt handle it all properly

--

I would like to pick her up
and hold her when she's sad.

Lend her my shoulder to lean on
and even give my hand.

But all this now is not for me to do
Because I got it wrong

I pray and hope
I pray and hope
She'll find her rest, her strength in You.

--

Thank You for Your gentle caution
So that I can become a better person in You

I’m sorry
For the cost I’ve caused others to pay
For the heartaches and tears shed

But I know and I know for sure
That You hold my life in Your arms
That You hold their lives in the palm of Your hands

And for that I can trust You
And be assured it will be alright.

--

Thank You Lord for Your grace that sees us through

I’m truly sorry Lord for the things I’ve made it.

Forgive me.

Help me get it right. Starting with You.

Multiple attempts and fail

Wow... how many times have i tried to blog.. but fail due to distraction, unfinished entries and what nots. Todaay topic is grace... its how i experience it..

No matter how big a chasm of misdeeds you do,
Even in the time when you set Him in the shadows, and set the games as a priority,
Though you put away the thoughts that He gives
and dwell in your selfish deeds.

And even when you did something that does not please Him, that forces Him to turn His eyes away
His arms are still open for you,
Those deeds are wiped away, by something that cost Him, but He did it for us... undeserved


Argh.. losing my touch.. but thats grace as i see it now ..

Weekend

This weekend, had a visit from a special friend, my dear friend Esther. At first thought I did question why now, since i am gonna have exams and all. But after today, I ama glad she came. The time we spent together helped me to pick back up the pieces in life somehow it was put back together. I am more motivated to serve the Lord in all that I do right now .. Bt anyhow, here like most blogs do is an entry on our weekend....

Saturday, went down to bugis, but don;t have the pics though as I was reluctant to do so. Dear, send to me the pics k ..


Hmm then it was movie and some pics in my room .. after watching the pursuit of Happiness, which was suppose to be emo .. but we got on the wrong emo.. : )
anyways heres one of my fav pics..

Well we went to foong seng after that and back home

Sunday it was lunch with my uncle and aunt with Esther meeting them. Did not know she was scared to meet them till today but alls well i guess.



Sunday night - Pics with her cousin.. super duper cute but Hmm.. scarily high I's,, They go like "esther, Esther..." countless times in a meal...
But it was fun and the food was great. Must say, AUNTY Jeslyn reminded me of my aunt back home
Will be back soon : )

Well there is the pretty dane and her two kids... Or her cousins.. :)

here is another with the kid doing his fav pose

He reminds me of like fido dido...
and he is one blessed kid.. at the age of 3 with a Wii.. : )




Last Day- A nice breakfaast at the old people's restaurant. Its old people coz we were the only young two there. And then its off to the bus with hugs and good byes. Lat pic at the restaurant ( cancelled and kept for private viewing : )


But the Lord is good in all...

And to face the giants, all i need is to call unto Him..

Here I am Lord and I'm drowning
In the sea of forgetfulness
Hold by the chains of yesterday

I know you have cast my sin out far
As far as the east is from the west

Now help me to fight this war
Let your truth show me
And help me to live for God

being different from the world
Send your spirit to convict my heart
of your words and the words i typed here

Livin is inded meaningless without you

But how oh how do i come back
To you....

Rainy Days and Thursdays

Well woke up early today... and found a pleasant gush of cold wind enfolding over me...

It is raining...

Decided to take a shower and then breakfast. thats when i saw the clock coming close to 9... I thought my class was at 9 but when I cheonged back to my room, I found out it was 10 :)

But beyond that, I decided to switch some nice "christian" music.. the term is in inverted as some people loath the use of the term saying that it does not differ.

Anyways... listening to that music in my semi dark room, on a rainy day.... Ah this is a good start to a day.. leaving me with the chill feeling.. Its like the song rainy days and mondays always leave me.. but not down but hungry for more of God... Perhaps I am a plant?

Enough of gibberish for the day, with that I shall end with this...

Treasure of the day and of the night
Unfold in time to our human eyes
The precious blood of Jesus Christ
Shed on the cross for us

What measure of sacrifice is this
To where does His power end
Nothing can balance the scale with Him
Even in the measure of Love as He is Love

So let these feet walk
Let these lips speak
Of the Lord who seeks
And saves us all... By His Grace, Jesus

An amazing illustration from the bible

In Leviticus 6 vs 8-13, the topic about the burnt offering was brought forward by the Lord to Moses for Aaron. Haha long line of command. But there is an amazing illustration in it about life to me.

It start by saying the burnt offering shall be on the altar all night until the morning and the fire shall be kept burning on it.
Then it goes on to say that the priest putting on his linen garment and undergarment shall take up the ashes and put them beside the altar. Then changing into another garment he shall take it outside the camp to a clean place. The fire on the altar shall be kept burning, it must no go out.
The priest shall burn wood on it every morning and shall arrange the burnt offering on it and shall burn on it the fat of the peace offerings. And once again the fire on the altar shall be kept burning. It must not go out.

Three things stood out to me. If my life was to be a sacrifice to the Lord then I need to remain on the altar of His presence. The burning fire of the spirit which in scriptures it said do not put the spirit's fire out and do not treat prophecies with contempt . Staying in the spirit's fire refines and produce ashes, the parts of life which is to be shed. To me those click with everything including the past, hurts, dissapointments and even mistakes. And the priest will carry it out. The priest represents to me Jesus. And from the burnt offering, from the offering becomes 2 things an aroma pleasing with the Lord from the fat and the ashes the rest of it.

So let me be an aroma pleasing to the, let the parts of my life be refined and the ashes to be taken out. Let my life be full of your spirit's flame for the people and Your will.


On a side note, I miss my dear so so much and can't wait for the time to travel.

p/s: comment on the illustrations... may not be accurate as I did no research but this is what I sensed.
