9:59 PM
It's 9.58pm and I've just reached home after a long day today and I shouldn't be blogging because I'm quite tired and I need to sleep because there is DANCE NIGHT PREVIEW tomorrow till 8pm -.-
BUT
I just wanted to remind myself about the stuff God said to me during class fellowship today, and that when I prayed for His word, He guided me throughout the day, and reminded me to Trust in Him and lean not on my own understanding.
And the thing is that while I was praying quietly, I suddenly had the mental image of my classmates sitting in the circle, and somehow I started to pray for each one of them, starting with sumae on my left all the way to mdm lim on my right. Personal stuff too, not just "let this person be less tired today" and stuff.
Things about an empty heart so-and-so is burdened with, or the need to be truly and completely loved and I dunno..
I remember when grace prayed for me one sunday, and she just let the Holy Spirit talk through her, and she identified the root of the problem as a burden I've carried. And it was so true- spot on.
And I just think about how prayer can be so very powerful. And how dumb I've been to wallow in the things I am facing without looking fully at everything and realising the blessings I've been given.
And it has truly been amazingly myopic on my part. "We serve a God of Blessings, even though we may not see the blessings in our hand."
Got the email from michelle again..
We worship God when we leave it up to him to interpret our circumstances.
We worship God when we allow him to define our lives and our purpose.
We worship God when we allow our heartache and our horrible circumstances to crowd us closer to the One who grieves with us because he loves us more than any other.
my greatest love is You
