i so tired of just waiting and waiting. its not good for me. its like im looking for something that can make me happy, but all that's doing is heading the wrong way. its like trying to find happiness somewhere else, but God. its just so disappointing to see how i thought i was on my way, i thought i was walking, but now it seems that maybe i am still at the fork of the path. maybe i knew which way i was supposed to go, but maybe i just didnt take the next step, cos i still had my eyes on the other path..
Jesus said
whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
the message today really challenged me to take a look how ive been living my life. its all about just taking up our cross daily in self denial, putting all pride, laziness, the desire for fulfillment from the things of the world, wanting revenge, wanting to be right, aside!
when i survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of Glory died
my richest gain i count but loss
and pour contempt on all my pride
see from his hands and feet
sorrow and love flow mingled down
did ever such love and sorrow meet
or thorns compose so rich a crown
o the wonderful cross,
o the wonderful cross,
bids me come and die and find that i may truly live!
o the wonderful cross
o the wonderful cross
all who gather here by grace draw near and bless Your name!
were the whole realm of nature mine
that were an offering far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
demands my soul, my life, my ALL
nothing less than my all
avoid the aliens;
