people who talk talk talk and don't listen, and then get it wrong irritate me.

Day 7

God sent rain last night. My roommate and i were just talking about how hot it was, and how it never rains these days, and i said, i'll pray for it to rain.
i didn't pray actually...it rained before i could.

that's the goodness of God, He gives us rain without us having to ask for it.

The rain brought me comfort.
Listening to the thunder and seeing the flashes the lightning cast on the shadows of my dark room gave me assurance of His providence. It was as if He was saying, that if only we would trust Him, He can make it rain in the desert. How great Thou Art, my Creator. Do you know this God?

Was reading Matthew 6:28-30 yesterday, it says :

"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow.
They do not labor or spin.
Yet i tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these.
If that is how God clothes the grass of the field which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith."

-----------------------------------------------

Send some rain, would You send some rain?
'Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud?
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down
Surely You can see that we are thirsty and afraid
But maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case . . .

We'll give thanks to You
With gratitude
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You
How to bless the very sun that warms our face
If You never send us rain

Daily bread, give us daily bread
Bless our bodies, keep our children fed
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight
Wrap us up and warm us through
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs
Let us slumber safe from danger's view this time
Or maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case . . .

We'll give thanks to You
With gratitude
A lesson learned to hunger after You
That a starry sky offers a better view if no roof is overhead And if we never taste that bread

Oh, the differences that often are between
What we want and what we really need

So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace
Move our hearts to hear a single beat
Between alibis and enemies tonight
Or maybe not, not today
Peace might be another world away
And if that's the case . . .

We'll give thanks to You
With gratitude
For lessons learned in how to trust in You
That we are blessed beyond what we could ever dream
In abundance or in need

Hope

Lord, let me be a living, willing sacrifice. You desire all, all is what i want to give You.

You gave, You gave Your life away
You gave, You gave Your life away for me
Your grace has broken every chain,
My sins are gone, my debt's been paid
You gave, You gave Your life away for me
For me

Lord, i know You said to trust You. Even in darkness, even in uncertainty, even when it is quiet, even when its hard. Even when i don't know what tomorrow will bring. I will trust You.

You are my Lord, my God, my Creator, my Father, my Saviour, my Redeemer and my Love. I will trust You; i will trust Your unfailing love for me. Perfect love that drives out fear.

But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever,
the purposes of His heart through all generations.
May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord,
even as we put our hope in You.
-Psalm 32:11,22


----------------------------------------------------------

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Scenes from his life flashed across the sky
and he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life had flashed before him,
he recalled that at the lowest and saddest times of his life
there was only one set of footprints.

Dismayed, he asked, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
I don't understand why, when I needed you most,
you would leave me."

The Lord replied, "My precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffering
when you saw only one set of footprints...

That was when I carried you."

Day 6

i lost my masterlife book.

I think i put it on top of my car and drove off with it still on top.

sigh

Day Five

Today i am reminded of my insignificance, my inadequacies and my worthlessness.

And then i am reminded of the grace of God, who said "I no longer call you servants, for a servant does not know his master's business. Instead I call you friends"

"No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand"

This is the goodness of God; who sent His only Son to die, that we might live!.

So let us live.

Its been busy day of late. This Friday is MK; thats

All are invited to come :)

--------------------

Who am i?
That the LORD of all the earth, would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt?

Who am i?
That the bright and morning star, would choose to light the way
for my ever wandering heart

But not because of who i am,
But because of what You've done;
Not because of what i've done
But because of Who You are -

I am a flower quickly fading, here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean, a vapour in the the wind.

Still You hear me when i'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when i'm falling,
and You told me who i am

I am Yours.

Who am i?
That the eyes that see my sin, would look on me with love
and watch me rise again,

Who am i?
That the Voice that calmed the sea, would call out through the rain
and calm the storm in me


But not because of who i am,
But because of what You've done;
Not because of what i've done
But because of Who You are -

I am a flower quickly fading, here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean, a vapour in the the wind.

Still You hear me when i'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when i'm falling,
and You told me who i am

I am Yours.

Jesus loves you, no matter who you are, or what you are. He loves you and wants you to know Him.

In Christ alone

In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone! who took on flesh
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied -
For every sin on Him was laid;
Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

Adakala di hati ini, ku berkata
"Ku mahu jalan sendiri!"
Adakala diri ini terpisah
- dari kemuliaanMu

Oh tetapi, Tuhan,
Ku kembalikan diriku -
segalanya, Tuhan
untuk menyembahMu.
Kerana semua yang ke perlu
ada di diriMu
hanya Engkau,
Satunya Pujianku

Adakala kasih hatiku melupa
Semua yang Kau t'lah relakan;
betapa besar,
kasih sempurnaMu, Tuhan
'tuk ku jadi milikMu

Namun,
kini, Tuhan,
ku kembalikan diriku -
segalanya, Tuhan
untuk menyembahMu.
Kerana semua yang ku perlu
ada di diriMu

hanya Engkau,
Satunya Pujianku
