Praise Party was kick-ass today! Really awesome! Never had something like this before. God really did the impossible! Praise God Praise God! Thank you Isaac and Ali who came today, really thankful, hope you both were blessed. :) Finally get to rest now, after so many days of night jamming.. But it was worth it, all for God's glory. Now that school's starting, have to start my engine going again, chiong through all the work that I've been lagging on. This is going to be crazyyyy.. But I'll do my best for God, no matter how tough it will be. Though school's a dread to go to too, but I'll persevere. Now that the planning of Gradshow is coming up, it should be fun and exciting, hope that'll be my motivation to go to school, if not, forget it.. hahhaa... I'll just go through school like it's just another thing.. Anyways, I better go shower now, and sleep, and prepare for God tml!
Signing out now, ciao!
Recently I've been reading the Purpose Driven Life book, using it for my quiet time for just 40days. And on Day 26, it's about Growing Through Temptation. The question that they asked me to consider was: What Christlike character quality can I develop by defeating the most common temptation I face?
I think the temptation that I face now is anger. I have been getting irritated at people more often than usual, getting more cranky. Came up with excuses why I'm become crankier, but after all it's still excuses. I need to learn to have patience with people around me. I lose it because I don't like the way they work and I think it's also because of jealousy or pride. Thinking that I'm good, and others know nothing at all or little. God is trying to get me to learn. Yes I used to be very patient with everyone, but I change too. I'm learning in every step of my life. Asking God to help me through is the only way. Though I feel like I'm getting further from God, but I'll do everything I can to get back that relationship. I still have that want to learn so much about God, sometimes I'm just lazy, or don't put it as my first priority, or I give in to temptation : TV.
Every temptation is an opportunity to do good.
Blessed Be Your Name by Matt Redman - - - Blessed Be Your Name In the land that is plentiful Where Your streams of abundance flow Blessed be Your name Blessed Be Your name When I'm found in the desert place Though I walk through the wilderness Blessed Be Your name Every blessing You pour out I'll turn back to praise When the darkness closes in, Lord Still I will say Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your glorious name Blessed be Your name When the sun's shining down on me When the world's 'all as it should be' Blessed be Your name Blessed be Your name On the road marked with suffering Though there's pain in the offering Blessed be Your name Every blessing You pour out I'll turn back to praise When the darkness closes in, Lord Still I will say Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your glorious name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your glorious name You give and take away You give and take away My heart will choose to say Lord, blessed be Your name
