Hearing Him on Mount Sinai :)
God's voice is not in the furious winds that split the mountain,
nor is it in the earthquake or the fire,
but His voice comes in a soft whisper.
when you set yourself there in a place and time for an appointment with Him,
just quiet yourself.
you will find Him
and hear His soft whispers.

G7 C C Dm7 All I have needed Thy hand hath provided F C G G7 C Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me.
my day.
bus stopped at an unusual destination when coming back from kuantan today.
had to take a further, unfamiliar route back to pj.
hot and sweaty and heavily burdened.
came home.
hungry for food.
broke something that doesn't belong to me.
had to clean up the mess.
and pay back the owner.
hahaha.
at hindsight it really seems like things are just not going my way today.
still my heart was oddly joyful.
my steps were light.
my thoughts were fixed fully on Him.
knowing He was not leaving me alone in all that.
He sent me an angel to guide me along the way.
how wonderful :)
am actually in a secret spiritual warfare these few days.
he's striking me with his tactics
trying to knock me down
stop me from praising Him
giving me no reason to be happy
but i was still worshiping the whole way.
i was singing while mopping and walking and climbing up and down and getting lost.
in the midst of that all, my heart was at peace.
and how good it felt, to rest assure and just, praise Him regardless :)

"..We sing this song and others like it with such passion on Sunday mornings, but often live a life that screams “God isn’t enough for me. I need X, Y, or Z to be content, happy, and fulfilled.” In my conversations with others, I hear many longings for marriage, for children, for better friends, for a better husband, for a change in life circumstances, for more money, for “whatever it is” to be over with. There is a sense in which if we just had that one thing, THEN I would be overflowing and full in my heart. Can we be honest for a second? If we are waiting on anything other than God to have a full heart, then we have created an idol. God is no longer our God and no longer the one who fills our soul. He is no longer the One in whom we have placed our hope. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be married or wanting a season of life to be over, but as soon as we need that to happen to be completely fulfilled, it is an idol."
wow.
wow.

HEYYO!
2 weeks in my holiday i've not been doing many things productive.
i admit.
but it's just good to be back home,
can i say i spent most of time appreciating how cozy my sofa feels like?
and how good it feels to have a fridge that's always stocked?
and how inviting my bed looks every afternoon?
HAHAHA.
lazy bum.
the photo above is me and my close friend lo,
so good to go to the beach and splash water and get sunburned and just talk life.
i miss this part of being home :)
when i go back pj,
i won't have anyone to talk heart to heart like this anymore.
but still tonight i'm once again reminded of what doing life is all about.
not about a list of priorities.
not about who or what that comes first.
because everything evolves around one thing.
and that's our Creator.
always remember the reason and motivation for all the things we do.
do.
not just because it weighs more importance.
but because we remember our most important God while we do it.
and we do it as He please.
without Him, we're lifting up our responsibilities, and not our God.
not His name we're glorifying anymore.
just sharing my thoughts,
'cause i think it blessed me so much to hear others share.
hee :)
goodnight beautiful people!
