Rediscovering Eden
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
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 vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, 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
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

Desperate for God

Haha thanks Kiki for the laugh of the day. They must have really been desperate for more of Him.
Just wanna say that God has been so real in my life for the past few weeks, it's beyond words.
You'd have thought that after 6 years the relationship might be reaching a standstill, but i feel like i'm just beginning to get to know this wonderful God i've known since i was a teenage girl.
Those few days where i felt like i had no more energy, no more joy left in me, when i was enveloped in darkness, You were there for me. You guided me through without complaint, one lil' step at a time, never judging me, always loving me. You sent Your Holy Spirit to speak to me, sent my spiritual sisters and brothers to care for me, sent countless messages that were amazingly what i needed at that time, even got a friend that i'd not met up with for a long time to suddenly send me a love message from You. With that kind of undying support and encouragement, how could i give up?
You never gave up.
Today morning i woke up in cold sweat, terrified by the nightmare i had. You were right there by my bedside, comforting me, telling me that everything was okay. "Why are you so afraid, my child? I am right here by your side. If I am for you, who can be against you?" Your love dispels all my fears, time and time again.
Yesterday night i was randomly playing my guitar, singing You love songs. Amazingly You used my horrible guitar playing to evoke tears in Spike, surprising me and even herself, who prolly have yet to speak to you for years. I didn't plan for it, but those divine moments when we sat together and worshipped You...I know You were there.
And today, I skipped lunch to spend time with You. And amazingly, you brought two of my colleagues to the room where i was playing the guitar and singing to You. In Your divine planning You led us to sing a song that would speak to all of us...and when You led me to pray i did not expect much, but when i opened my eyes after the prayer one of them was tearing, and the other sincerely touched by Your Word for her. It blows my mind how You work such miracles through my lousy guitar skills, off-tune voice and impromptu prayers. Reminds me that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, but that I am nothing apart from You.
These days of spending extended time with You have been beautiful, and amazingly the darkness have been lifted completely, leaving only light and joy.
I am now able to say with all of my heart, "I can't wait for tomorrow", because tomorrow consists of You. =)
