revolution

this song came out on my itunes while it was on shuffle. suddenly the lyrics just hit me and i thought it was so cool.

Revolution – Starfield.

Purple and yellow is such a strangely good combination of lights.

Hosea 14: 4-9

⁴ The Lord says,
“Then I will heal you of your faithlessness;
my love will know no bounds,
for my anger will be gone forever.
⁵ I will be to Israel
like a refreshing dew from heaven.
Israel will blossom like the lily;
it will send roots deep into the soil
like the cedars in Lebanon.
⁶ Its branches will spread out like beautiful olive trees,
as fragrant as the cedars of Lebanon.
⁷ My people will again live under my shade.
They will flourish like grain and blossom like grapevines.
They will be as fragrant as the wines of Lebanon.

⁸ “O Israel,^[a] stay away from idols!
I am the one who answers your prayers and cares for you.
I am like a tree that is always green;
all your fruit comes from me.”

⁹ Let those who are wise understand these things.
Let those with discernment listen carefully.
The paths of the Lord are true and right,
and righteous people live by walking in them.
But in those paths sinners stumble and fall.

~

His love will know no bounds.

that’s the way we need to walk in.

on a roll

i am on a roll. things are growing and flourishing all around me and it make sme feel so good.

the power of God to change lives is just mind blowing. the power of prayer and plain old fashioned love does wonders.

i’m constantly amazed, constantly.

what a great weekend. God’s been working things out inside of me. the place was torn down twice in a row and i was close to tears every time with a great desire burning in my heart. a great love growing inside. a great anointing being poured out.

what a great weekend, indeed.

there are so many thoughts in my head as i take a break from the work that needs to be done to unwind a bit. it’s been late nights and work and the click and grind of things spiralling upwards toward a climax.

but hey, it’s all so exciting because i know lives will be changed.

i love my pastors so much.

they are always keeping me in awe of them. every little thing they do, they way they are, the essence of their anointing, just them. i love them so much.

i’ve come to the realisation that the person i am has changed so drastically the past few years its quite crazy. but i like who i am becoming now in Christ more than who i was before. it’s a cleaner, simpler, happier me that i love more.

yes i love myself too although im not perfect in any way.

im going to just give my best like how i gave my best when i was just a kid.

im stil the same in some ways. i just need to give a bit more.

hahah, the bed is calling my name but i still need to do some stuff first. its alr 2am!

:o

lomo

haha, holgas are cool. if i ever have enough money i’ll get one.

and i’ll buy back my takamine again! i miss my guitar so much man…

i realised as i was walking around peninsula today with the CG that there are many things we want in life, but few of them we actually need. yes, it’s quite strange isn’t it? we always want many things but actually, we don’t really need them. The things we need, we tend to stinge on to get the things that we want.

Humans are strange sometimes!

i guess priorities go out of focus when your desires take over.

24 was powerful. people were impacted and ministered to. it was was so cool.

wow my phone just vibrated 4 times in the past minute. that’s quite amazing.

so amny things to do suddenly! i feel flooded.

i suddenly miss going out with mum & dad.. it’s been so long since i last went out with them. i’m gonna go with them on monday man.

oh 5th sms. this is crazy!

im excited for the weekend :D

samson & delilah

i was just reading my bible about samson and i realised something really cool.

we always thought that samson blindly fell to the lies of delilah, and yes it was the woman’s fault for luring him.

but i noticed that before samson told her the secret of his strength, she had asked him about it 3 times prior. each time he lied and each time, the phillistines would carry out the lie on him to see if his strength would disappear. So, the strange thing is that Samson would have known that Delilah was working for the Phillistines to get him killed. 3 times is more than just a coincidence, you’d have to be extremely dumb to not notice it.

Why did Samson still spend time with Delilah, still hang around when he knew that she didn’t really love him?

I realised that like many of us, Samson was simply blinded by his desire for the woman. Too caught up in the pleasures of today to look towards the greater goal God has in our lives. Just too caught up that we walk willingly into a trap and away from the presence of God.

it’s so easy to just get caught up with the excitement and the fun of every day life that we go a bit too far and walk a bit too out of God’s plan in our lives. it makes it all the more important for us to be like steel to ourselves and be so so so tight on our character and the decisions we make.

it makes me all the more set on thinking things through before doing them.

one thing i admired about Samson was his courage. a mistake was made, but he didn’t give up faith or hope in God. in the face of the worst circumstances, he stil cried out to God for strength again, and he was not afraid to scarifice his own life for it.

At that point in time, he could have just died a simple death, but he chose to die with honour.

I was reading a random, silly book, but this thing cuaght my eye

A great leader has

1. the ability to feel fear

2. the ability to ignore it

there’s a 3rd thing to add on though

3. the ability to have faith instead

:)

yes!

SCHOOL IS OVER.

im so so excited! i just cant wait for everything. oh man, its good to not have to worry about school or work or anything!

i believe results will be good (:

on a sidenote, my voice is slowly going down the drain ! yucks.
