:: I Will Rest In You ::

Isaiah 40:31 (NKJV)
But those who wait on the LORD
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

Psalm 127:1 (NIV)
Unless the LORD builds the house,
its builders labor in vain.
Unless the LORD watches over the city,
the watchmen stand guard in vain.

Jaci Velasquez - I Will Rest In You
From the album Streams

Lord, I'm in the dark
Seems to me the line is dead when I come calling
No one there, the sky is falling
Lord I need to know
My mind is playing games again
You're right where You have always been

Take me back to You
The place that I once knew
As a little child
Constantly the eyes of God watched over me
Oh I want to be
In the place that I once knew
As a little child
Fallinto the bed of faith prepared for me
I will rest in You
I will rest in You
I will rest in You

Tell me I'm a fool
Tell me that You love me for the fool I am
And comfort me like only You can
And tell me there's a place
Where I can feel Your breath
Like sweet caresses on my face again

Take me back to You
The place that I once knew
As a little child
Constantly the eyes of God watched over me
Oh I want to be in the place that I once knew
As a little child
Fall into the bed of faith prepared for me
I will Rest in You
I will rest in You
I will rest in You

First things first!! Thanks dawn for allowing me to scrawl on your bloggie!! Hello everyone who's reading this!! Hope you've had a blessed cny celebration (",)

Thank God for cny holidays :)

"Be still and know that I am God." 8 words. That are so difficult to grasp. To say to Him, "I need YOU", out of habit or out of a programmed prayer lingo is so easy and 'normal'... But "i need YOU", uttered in awe of Him, with such earnestness that the soul can do nothing but be still takes so much..

So much what? Effort? Effort towards holiness? Effort to still the squirming soul? For me, it's effort to be humble. And in humility trust my Lord, who made the heavens and the earth, who set the planets in their orbits, who would care enough to make the world a beautiful place for my enjoyment. This same awesome God sent Christ to suffer on the cross for my sins, this same magnificent Lord welcomes souls like me.

The past month was an exhausting one for me. Maybe cause i'm aging? haha.. i've been running around like some crazy auntie ding doing everything, some of which, don't need to be done. And in doing so, i've sidelined the most important of them all. This cny break was really a Godsent. A time of stillness and reflection and God's serenity just awashing me, by His grace. Always, His faithfulness astounds.

Prov 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart

and lean not on your own understanding;

in all your ways acknowledge him,

and he will make your paths straight.

take heart!! :) persevere in following Him!! as pastor malcolm said, through the mountain or valley, let Him take the lead. After all, He IS God (",)
