song for the soul
A thousand sparkling stars upon a midnight summer sky.
The majesty and wonder of the ocean's endless tide.
And the more I see, the more I can't explain
How the One who set the world in place
Could even know my name,
And I'm amazed, I'm so amazed.
How great You are, how small I am
How awesome is Your mighty hand
And I am captured by the wonder of it all
And I will offer all my praise
With all my heart for all my days
How great You are, how great you are,
How great You are.
A million snowflakes gently fall yet no two are the same.
The colours fill the canvas of the seasons as they change.
And everywhere I look I see Your hand.
Why You would love someone like me, I'll never understand.
And I'm amazed, I'm so amazed
How great You are, how small I am
How awesome is Your mighty hand
And I am captured by the wonder of it all
And I will offer all my praise
With all my heart for all my days
How great You are, how great you are,
How great You are.
reflections

Once again, it's that time of the year.
Question: What would make a good reflection?
Time and tide waits for no man. But the memories are here to stay.
Each year holds it's own set of trials and surprises and this year is no different.
I'm been listening to many christian songs of late and each set of lyrics, each phrase or each sentence can bring so much meaning and understanding if only we take the time to dwell upon it. Perhaps this is what 'revelation' means, when the circumtances of life create a new synthesis of thought.
To be rebuke none the less a very humbling feeling.
Everyone needs compassionA love that's never failingLet mercy fall on meEveryone needs forgivenessA kindness of a SaviorThe hope of nationsNo one can fully understand personal thoughts but the father can. To be time and time again given a reminder that his presence is there is truly amazing and comforting.
2008 alone has brought about so many learning curves and pointers. To sometimes fully understand the basis of the occurrence is in itself a feat.
Reasons.
Because human nature tends to search for concrete answers and evidence, The most common word: Why?
Why? signals a degree of unbelieve and doubt.
Something which i've been guilty of nonetheless.
SaviorHe can move the mountainsMy God is Mighty to saveHe is Mighty to saveForever, Author of salvationHe rose and conquered the graveJesus conquered the graveFor all that has happen this past year.
Friendships made. Friendships strengthen.
Unity is what binds us together.
We are one. But not truely one.
Youth Conference has always held a very special place in my heart and it would continue to hold that very spot.
It's always a time of chastisment that speaks to your soul, that tells you that your not fine on your own strength and ability.
All you need to do is just to simply come back
So take me as You find meAll my fears and failuresFill my life againI give my life to followEverything i believe inNow i surrenderShine your light and let the whole world seeWe're singing for the glory of the risen King...Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is Mighty to save
He is Mighty to save
Forever, Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the graveThe best reflection comes from the heart, the soul.
Interaction between Man and God.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.” - Isaiah 55:8-92009: This time Lord, you take the lead, you take the wheel.
Let it this time be your way, not mine, not anyone else.
Let this upcoming year be truely different.
This is redemption's story
That the Lord of all the earth
Came to die to bear the sting of sin away
Come, all who hear this story
And call on Jesus's name
And then you'll find that life
will never ever be the same
