Mess to message.

imm — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 14:06:16 +0000

It’s very encouraging to see how God can take your messes and turn them into messages.

It’s good to know that He cleans up your messes though you’ve left behind quite an aftermath.

If this isn’t grace, what is?

tears.

how many tears will I cry; till I finally realise that I’m your delight.
every droplet, every tear–you keep them, you hold them dear.

you descend like gentle snowflakes; you rise up like a mighty gale.
fiercely guard me o Lord; my heart in you secure.

evergreen.

to think that even a glance at it makes my tummy churn;
i never knew looking at a christmas tree would be so painful.

the light of the world hung on a tree–with a crimson flow, to set me free.

assure me Lord, assure me.

Back into perspective.

There are days we ask Jesus…

“Why are things not easy, why are things so hard?”

But instead of seeing things being so difficult, we could see them as avenues for grace…

We may never see this immediately, but in every situation we go through it has already been tampered with grace.

I guess it could been worse?

Yet I am convinced that if i’ve got to go through this valley, I will not endure the journey, but rather i’ll take my time to experience it and allow my heavenly Daddy to coach and mentor me.

Pastor M made a really good comment awhile ago, and I echo it: “Don’t waste the pain”

While pain is not from DaddyGod, it is still a useful change agent, not everything is God-sent but everything can be God-used.

So I shalln’t waste this, but i’ll grow from it.

I can’t tell the future, but I know that The One who holds mine in His hands.

emotional stability is never emotional indifference; never confuse the two, an emotional stable person feels hurts, cries tears but comes out stronger.

an indifferent person is just numb, never feeling, never tasted sweetness of love nor the sourness of pain.

“if eyes are windows to the soul, then tears wash those windows when they get dirty..”

on giving up.

“It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.”~ Albert Einstein

“Between you and every goal that you wish to achieve, there is a series of obstacles, and the bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles. Your decision to be, have and do something out of the ordinary entails facing difficulties and challenges that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else.”~ Brian Tracy

so Lord, does hanging on really matter?

Stepping out.

imm — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 04:25:41 +0000

I’m stepping out and jumping into your invisible realm of grace.

Your bottomless, ceiling-less, unrestricted, unconfined and unlimited wide open space of grace.

I’m leaving behind the old and stepping into the new.

So daddyGod, here I am – send me.
My name is Immanuel and I’m your man.

delight in the Lord.

Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. - Psalm 37:4 NASB

Perhaps we don’t feel the intensity of this verse because of its ‘oldish’ language.

‘Delight’ doesn’t really give me a picture of intense joy. (Somehow images of cream cheese were conjured up…)

While there are many ways to express intense joy in words. I find the word ‘enjoy’ most apt in this verse, especially if we were to paraphrase it in our modern day vernacular.

“ENJOY the Lord… and He’ll give you the desires of your heart”

I wonder, if your desire is the Lord himself, wouldn’t it be awesome to see how this verse become a beautiful cycle of divine romance?

Enjoy the Lord, for He is your desire, and because He is your desire–you enjoy the Lord.

I guess David saw that when He wrote the psalms.

when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. – Psalms 61:2 [ASV]

who has bewitched you?

Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the [Holy] Spirit as the result of obeying the Law and doing its works, or was it by hearing [the message of the Gospel] and believing [it]? [Was it from observing a law of rituals or from a message of faith?]
Are you so foolish and so senseless and so silly? Having begun [your new life spiritually] with the [Holy] Spirit, are you now reaching perfection [by dependence] on the flesh?
Galatians 3:2-3 [AMP]

So it shall be of rest Lord.
