lumière de monde
Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes let me see
Beauty that made
This heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You
So here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You're my God
And You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me
King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came
To the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor
And I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
And I'll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross

OK i decided to take all the things about LG down. Im not backsliding yeah, juz that its kinda tiring n lazy to post n i think i lost the drive to post abt these wonderful ppl. =p. Anyway i decided to revamp the blog, been awhile since i last posted and i think this blogskin shud last for a couple of weeks? I dunno. Anyway juz dun bother abt all the previous posts cos its like so very long ago. im no longer emo ok. dun anyhow think. Im not lying. So yeah juz believe that im rid of being emo. =].
Anyway we had like the prayer meeting thing but we really watched the movie, abt facing our giants, instead of sharing testimonies and all. It was a great show, and i had to constantly think of how the show related to God and all. Its like wow u noe. Cos there was this part where the coach was trying to motivate this guy in the team and how he kept tellign him not to give up and perservere, that really encouraged me. Its like wow! Cos when i tot of wad God is trying to tell us, it strikes me that God is liek the coach and we're like that kid whom the coach is pushing. And then we're like always trying our best n we always wanna giv up but God is there pushing us! Shouting at us if we decide to giv up and all. But the diff is that God is a still small voice while the people of the world are the ones shouting. And then i start to think abt the times i gave up, how i listened to the crowd n stop doing wad God really wans me to. I feel sad really sad n bad. Like how cud i, u noe? Like how can i actually lose sight of God's miraculous plan for me. And then abt gabriel, how can i actually forget his impact on my life? I juz feel that i wasted God's time and i wanna do soemthing rigth again. Theres nth in this world more important then the almighty Father.
I wanted to leave after the show. Didnt feel liek staying for prayer at first, but somehow i did. I dunno y, it must b God's conviction. and then we started praying. I started tearing, i cried. I prayed n i ask God stuff. Lotsa stuff and i begin to wonder. I tot to myself wad i shud pray abt. And when it came to revival in our own lives, I felt liek God was slapping me both ways cos i always neglected n took for granted the ppl closest n nearest ard me. It isnt abt the ppl in east timor n the ppl in the hospitals nor isit the street kids that we shud worry abt firt. We need to start from our own backyards. Our family n frenz. i asked God wad wud it b like if Jesus did came back. And a most scary tot came to my mind. I didnt wan that to happen. Not in a million years. And i prayed. I remembered how moses interceded for the ppl. If i got that rite at least. And then i tot if God can do that to moses years ago, He can do that today too. I ask God not for renewed passion cos i was filled wif a hunger n desire for revival for a lost generation. What i ask was for time and greater desperation. Cos theres not much time left to Jesus' 2nd coming. i dun wan that tot that ran in my mind to come thru. People please pray for revival cos its the scariest n worst thing on earth not to happen. the people need a God.
i think im weird typing all these today. like lester's gone crazy abt his religion and i hav this really bad feelin that ill lose my zeal when i wake up tmr or when i go back studying, or facing up to reality like back in school. But then if i dun type this out, i feel liek i wud be shortchanging God abt this impactful incident! i wanan honour God in my life juz like wad that coach did. Help me God~!
