keep singing

Lately this song has been on my heart. I think i've had it for a few years now but only now its really jumped out. Keep Singing by Mercyme

Another rainy day
I can't recall having sunshine on my face
All I feel is pain
All I wanna do is walk out of this place
But when I am stuck and I can't move
When I don't know what I should do
When I wonder if I'll ever make it through

I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
Your the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
That's the only way that I'll find healing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Oh You're everything I need
And I gotta keep singing

have you heard?

So how are you?

This week has been very frustrating with the internet connection being what it is. I went to the forums and almost everyone is complaining. Gave up on calling the streamyx people because they never seem to fix the problem just tell me the same routine things, reset your modem, bypass the splitter yada yada.

Just a thought

We all have weaknesses and talking about other people is interesting but is it right? Is it worth all the hurts and troubles it causes?

Gossip betrays a confidence but a trustworthy man keeps a secret.

Proverbs 11:13

A perverse man stirs up dissension, and a gossip separates close friends.

Proverbs 16:28

A gossip betrays confidence; so avoid a man who talks too much

Proverbs 20:19

Without wood a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down

Proverbs 26:20

The words of gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to a man's inmost parts

Proverbs 26:22

Words of a wise man. I think we'll be much happier if we apply some of the wisdom from proverbs myself included.

Father help us all to speak words of life and encouragement. Give us the grace to control our tongues. Convict us of our wrong holy spirit and help us change.

his masterpiece

We have this thing on friday afternoons where we go around the campus and ask students a few questions about God and one of the questions we ask is, in your opinion, do you think God is a personal God or an impersonal God and we have to explain what that means because some people have no understanding of this. All this is new to them.

I just watched this movie, the ghost of past girlfriends and i've been putting off watching it because the title gives away alot and i don't want to be all emo again well today i wanted to watch something and its one of the newer movies i have and have not watched yet, plus mr. J constantine said its a good movie so i was like what the heck.

You know the saying dont judge a book by its cover? Its my belief that people ordinarily don't change, the older we get the more set in our ways we become. But then there's something that happens when some one comes in contact with God and he does things to him that are so incredible, you will need faith not to believe in Him. Only God breaks the rule here. After the movie was over i just thought to myself, will i ever become like that? I know its ridiculus but this is what i do. I can't help it.

And you know what? After a few sessions on friday, i have come to treasure what i have. This faith in Jesus that i have. I have come to treasure it because we take it for granted that God is a personal God, that He provides all these mechanisms and systems to make our life generally more bearable and we forget that not everyone has that. Some people grow up all their lives without any pillars no strong towers to hide in, nothing firm and unshakable. Thats why people get into relationships. Love conquers everything right and then maybe something doesn't work out and they're in disaster mode. Nothing to hold on to. We take it for granted sometimes that He hears us when we pray, that He says come to me when you are burdened and i will give you rest. Not everyone has that. Not everyone know what to do in these situations. Thats why they drink and do other things to numb themselves because life's tough. And its much tougher when you're all alone.

I was sitting here wondering if i will become like that someday and you know what? I could hear as if someone talking to me. Not in an audible voice like any other person but in more of an inner voice, you're not like that. You are my masterpiece, and i love you. Drove me to tears. Today i was telling someone that there's nothing we can do to deserve God's grace, God's love, His mercy. We cannot earn it. We can only value it. And treasure it.

If you are a child of God, i think He's saying the same thing to you, You are my masterpiece, and I love You. This verse comes to mind.

To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy - to the only God our saviour be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.

Jude 1:24
