:: won't you care? ::

The giving up is the hardest part. Quoted from the song that's been playing on loop now, "Dreaming With A Broken Heart" by John Mayer.

Won't you care?

Ah, You know. You'll know what to do. With me. With you. He knows.

I wait :)

Steadfastness, that is holding on;
patience, that is holding back;
expectancy, that is holding the face up;
obedience, that is holding one's self in readiness to go or do;
listening, that is holding quiet and still so as to hear.

How long, Lord, must i wait?
Never mind, child. Trust me.

I do. Let that be enough :)

:: running ::

Exams are over. What can i say? :D Been trying to be as *hyper* and *joyful* as i can. Hehehehe.

I've yet to get my 8 hours of sleep but y'know what? I don't really care anymore. Not when my time is spent doing something more useful. More engaging. More...worthwhile.

"Do all things without complaining and disputing, that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that i may rejoice in the day of Christ that i have not run in vain or labored in vain." - Philippians 2 : 14-16

I do not run in vain. Sowing that in my spirit :) All for His glory.

Personal devotion has been taken to another level. Early mornings have never been better. Worship has never been more personal. Praying has never been so fervent. I want to see what i've been seeing in my mind in the natural world. I want to believe and expect that all that i've been praying for will come to pass.

Be it my family coming to know You. Be it my friends who care but have yet to understand. Having my innermost desires to be fulfilled. I pray that it will *all* come to pass :) Cause Your promises ring true. They ring constant. They ring whether or not i press the bell. And it's getting rather exciting, waiting for that time to come.

All in due time, You say.

Things have not been going as smoothly as i hope but i've managed. Tired, isn't quite the word. Frustrated wouldn't be the *done* thing to say. But God's grace has been sufficient for me. IS sufficient for me and i'm running. Praying i won't pancit anytime soon. Hehehehe. I don't feel like i'm *pancit-ing*. But "getting lost in my deep thoughts" have been happening too often for my liking. Hrm. I have nothing to worry about really, i'm just anal.

Leading prayer, visioncasting and worship today was a challenge but it went really well, praise God! :D I emphasise that i'm NOT a water closet. Eeeeesh. WC stands for better things ok!! Lols.

CampusCity is gonna be awesome. Yet again. Why? Cause He is gonna be there.
I'm still excited for the things that are about to happen. It's so exciting that i'm scared and delirious at the same time. Scared to be too delirious maybe? Ah, Lord, take my life, all that i have to give. Take my world, just inhabit all of it. Take my dreams, make me assuredly Yours.

I know this seems like a random verbiage. But, it feels good to know you're in good hands, doesn't it?

:: dare you to move ::

On the 5th of May, 2004, i started a blog. And today, i'm starting a brand new one. It's time for a change. I'm feeling changes by the day. I want to record them in ways i've never done before :) I started my old blog with words from "Learning To Breathe" by Switchfoot.

And now...i shall officiate this blog with...

"I Dare You To Move" by Switchfoot.

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here.

God is daring me to move. To trust and believe Him that He's gonna take me places. He's gonna take US places. I would have lost heart, unless i had believed that i would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. -Psalm 27:13

CampusCity is gonna be AWESOME today. I can feel it in my bones. I can tell from the same happy spasms i get from java chips and lovely fuzzyfying stories, God is gonna move. And i pray that i'll be moving with Him ;)

Run with me. I dare you.
