A Broken Spirit
A broken spirit and a contrite heart
You will not despise
You will not despise
You desire truth in the inward parts
A broken spirit
And a contrite heart
Lord my heart is prone to wander
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart
Lord take and seal it
Seal it for Your courts above

The real problem of the Christian life comes where people do not usually look for it.
It comes the very moment you wake up each morning.
All your wishes and hopes for the day rush at you like wild animals.
And the first job each morning consists simply in shoving them all back; in listening to that other Voice, taking that other point of view, letting that other larger, stronger, quieter life come flowing in.
And so on, all day.
C. S. Lewis, 1900-1963

JAMES 1

2
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,

3
because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.

4
Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

5
If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.

6
But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

7
That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord;

8
he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.

9 The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position.

10 But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower.

11 For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its blossom falls and its beauty is destroyed. In the same way, the rich man will fade away even while he goes about his business.

12 Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

13 When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;

14 but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed.

15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

16 Don't be deceived, my dear brothers.

17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.

18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.

Father, I thank You that You've revealed to us that You'll be sending revival soon. I pray that the cell will continue to persevere despite all that's happened. Mould us and make us into the children You desire us to be. Teach us to trust in You and to be faithful always. Open our eyes to the work of Your hands. Amen.

It's all about You
Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and Your fame
It's not about me
As if You should do things my way
You alone are God and I surrender
To Your ways

I was so tense on the first and second day because I wanted everything to be perfect - I was serious about serving God. I forgot to let God take control. Through a series of misadventures God slowly revealed to me that He is in control and He's a lot less worried about the serious side of things than we are.

"Lighten up, man!" I could almost hear Him saying as the kids were laughing at me after the "ball's hall" comment. And I did. I "let go and let God", as I've heard it said before.

I hope that you can learn to do the same before God chooses to humble you through humour. Trust me, it's embarrassing.

- Chris Roberts


TILL I SEE YOU
The greatest love that anyone will ever know
That overcame the cross and grave to find my soul
Till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

With all I am I live to see Your kingdom come
And in my heart I pray You'll let Your will be done
Till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

I will live to love You
I will live to bring You praise
I will live a child in awe of You

You are the voice that called the universe to be
You are the whisper in my heart that speaks to me
Till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

You alone are God of all
You alone are worthy Lord
And with all I am my soul will bless Your name

was watching jerry maguire this afternoon and i happened to catch the emotional part where tom cruise realises that he loves renee zelleweger.
you complete me.
the famous line of the show.
handsome and charming tom cruise saying that.
i would have probably swooned like the rest of the female viewers if i didn't watch oprah yesterday.

maybe it's cos i'm on holiday and i've been busy busy busy during this whole holiday that you give me 2 days of rest and suddenly i don't know what to do with myself that i'm starting to watch gossipy talk shows and sappy romantic movies.
yesterday it was featured on oprah that a man nicknamed casanova actually had 9 women he was either married to or engaged to over the span of 2 years.
how these women actually got conned i have no idea.
this man actually proposed within weeks of meeting them and they actually had no qualms about saying yes.
because he knew what to say at the right time.
he looked average.
they knew next to nuts about him except that he claimed that he was either in the navy or the airforce.
and that he always turned up for dates in his uniform.
isn't that like a big giveaway?
like doesn't this guy have clothes or is he psycho or something to wear the same thing all the time?
and he managed to carry on this facade till one of the last of his fiancees' or wives' or whatever's mother found cheques missing and checked up on him to find out that he had been to jail and had been married so many times.
funny how she gets suspicious of a man who steals money from her yet she wasn't suspicious of him when her daughter decides to get hitched to a man she barely knew.
huh.
durr-brains.
and guess what?
he actually used the line, "you complete me."
eurgh.
no wonder i got put off tom cruise just now.

so there's this psychiatrist on oprah, dr robin smith or other, who's an expert on relationships and she gives all these women advice on how they should move on and how they should rectify mistakes.
one thing she said was that women nowadays, even though with sexual equality and what with most of them being career women and "independent", are still trained to think that we're insufficient by ourselves and that we need a relationship, specifically one with a man, to complete us.
she said that we should learn how to complete ourselves with our family and by ourselves so that we won't have to depend on men to complete us.
this is to save us from being desparate to hang onto relationships cos most women think their lives aren't worth it if they don't have a husband or boyfriend.
sad, but the real facts of this world.
some might think it's sexist, but i think that we should really let God be the one to complete us.
not fallible humans who will fail us at times.

i felt far away from God for a few days and i'm so glad that i'm back right beside Him.
cos i've been feeling empty and hollow the past few days.
and it's no wonder because i wasn't tuned in to God.

You complete me, Father.
