i'm thankful for the time that i get to sit and think and reflect. it seems to help me to instill some order into my private life, refuelling me for the challenges that would come my way way next.
i'm learning these days to be a true worshipper. the time that i can just sing and worship God and talk to Him is a real indulgence and privilege. His presence has been tangibly felt in the past two nights as we came together to worship. no guitar, no band. just us - our hearts and lives in total surrender and yieldedness. the hour passed us by just like that. i found myself wanting to linger longer and just continue worshipping Him. i totally love it. the Holy Spirit has also been speaking and bringing many things to my remembrance, speaking from His word. i believe this is only a glimpse of even greater encounters and fellowship with Him. i want to bring my members into more of such encounters!
and as i spoke to a dear sister of mine, God reminded me that the seasons that i have been through was for a purpose and not in vain. having been through what i was grappling with in the past three months, i know i've emerged stronger and loving God and His people more. my heart has been checked, fine-tuned and sensitized. as i prayed, i felt the pain and grief in my heart for her.
my dear, i know the weeks ahead is not going to be easy, but God will bring you through, holding on tightly to your hands as He did to mine. He'll never let go of you even when you don't know how to carry on. He'll carry you through so long you stick on to Him. jia you! you can! <3
