Let it sink into my inmost being

I enjoyed the meet up session I had with my poly friends on Saturday. Seriously, I was looking forward to catching up with them cos I wasn't present during the last makan session. I feel that our friendship has grown from strength to strength over the years. Though there were some conflicts within the group, we managed to work in out and allow time to heal the brokeness. We have matured alot I would say. The content of our conversation was just different. Perhaps, now we are at a different stage of life. Previously, it was about assignments, projects, lecturers and shopping that we talked about. Yesterday, we brought up issues such as work and some of important life choices. I'm beginning to treasure this bunch of friends even more.

Today, we sang 'I Love You Lord' during the worship service. And as I was worshipping God, I was just thinking what it really means to love God more than yourself. Yes, my desire and other christians desire is to love God wholeheartedly. How then should we live up to this desire that we so dearly profess?

I guessed it zooms down to one answer 'Surrendering every aspect of our lives to God'. When we love ourselves more than God, we begin to take things into our own hands, to glory in our accomplishments. However, when we start to allow God to take the wheel , to take it from our hands, our perspectives of life begin to change. We will have this blessed assurance of knowing that God is in control even in the little details of what life can bring. Having our identity sealed with Christ, we need not chase after the wind. May we decrease and let Christ increase in our hearts.

I Love You Lord

I love You, Lord
Greater than anything
I love You, Lord
More than my heart could sing
I love You, Lord
More than I love myself
I love You Lord
I love You Lord
I love You Lord

On a side note, Cons and myself went to do threading at Little India followed by a short shopping spree at Bugis Street. The entire lanes were crowded, with so many people doing their last minute CNY shopping. I'm glad that I managed to change the 'Ah Lian' top which I bought 3 days ago. I had no idea why this top caught my attention initially. Perhaps it was the $10 price tag that was attached to this top that led to my impulse buying.

I'm looking forward to more exciting days ahead. God be my strength!
