on a lighter note..

i used to think singing was great, but really, I was skeptical about how it might be used to minister to others about Christ. After all, people tended to be carried away with the melody all too often, neglecting the lyrics. I know im guilty of that one.

Yet after friday's performance, i realised how myopic i was, humbled yet again by God. I remember vividly walking up the stage, self-conscious, almost feeling naive and childish to be singing feel-good Christian songs in an almost amateurish manner, after having seen the groups before us belt out classics and popular songs. but boy was i surprised (and yes very apologetically humbled) when i saw the crowd before us dancing along and having a whale of a time as we sang our hearts out, having made it clear that we sing because we want to praise him.

The joy that filled my heart subsequently as i walked down the stage was indescribable. And certainly it would have been so, knowing for certain that God works faithfully in people, in his creation that he loves. So even when my faith withers and i grow handicapped in my ability to love, I am assured that God will never be so; hearts will be touched, his way, his time.

p/s lyrics were changed by my really talented friends:)

Mr perfect/miss imperfect

Instead of waiting for the perfect one, work at being the perfect one instead. These words roll off the tongue with ease like a familiar jingle. Yet the former holds an appeal tt the latter can never achieve.could it be, that at the end of the day, we are, in fact, more aware of reality than we realise? The former, perhaps, more achievable than the latter?

pro-cras-in-a-tion.

one of those moments when i get distracted from the task at hand, oh the joys of the internet. i dont know what catches my eye more, the light, the subtle suggestions of melting shadows, or an unadulterated expression of love, that comfortable lingering silence in company?

the ego of man

so this caught my eye from the red center during studios today. The question of religion and God certainly never fails to draw the crowds: from a question of God's existence, one is defined.yet through it, I'm amazed yet again of how self absorbed humans can be. In our pursuit to find out who we are, theists, atheists, or nihilists, we got the order so wrong. For is the conclusion to this question even one tt is up to our disgression, or should it be that whoever we claim to be is inconsequential, for the question is really an answer that has to be accepted nonetheless..?
