Dear everyone,
Again, I posted this before, but I'll just repost it. It's a section from my favorite Five Iron Frenzy song and then I'll blog a bit...
" Man versus himself.
Man versus machine.
Man versus the world.
Mankind versus me.
The struggles go on,
The wisdom I lack,
The burdens keep pilling
Up on my back.
So hard to breathe,
To take the next step.
The mountain is high,
I wait in the depths.
Yearning for grace,
And hoping for peace.
Dear God...
Increase.
Healing hands of God have mercy on our unclean souls once again.
Jesus Christ, light of the world burning bright within our hearts forever.
Freedom means love without condition,
without a beginning or an end.
Here's my heart, let it be forever Your's,
Only You can make every new day seem so new!"
God is just so amazing. I had probably one of the best Sundays I've had yesterday in a week (0kay, fine, technically there were no Sundays separating sunday to sunday, but still)... I don't know, God is just so good. He just does so much to simply bowl me over with his grace, his love, his amazing amazingness. How can peopel say god doesn't love us? Too many coincidences happen for you to not to say that God is doing something. I mean, how can all these litlte things line up perfectly? God hast o be the one. There is no other way. It just is not possible for me to bump into the right peopel at teh right times.
Today, I was reminded once again about why I am here in the Philippines. I came across Nehemiah 1 during the Call Center Ministry message and was reminded that this was the passage that God put on my heart to come back to teh Philippines. Before that, I was going back to the Philippines out of duty, not out of calling or desire. But then I read the passage about Nehemiah hearing about the broken walls of Israel and I felt that way about the Philippines. My heart really goes out to everyone here and I can see that God has asked me to come back and begin building the walls of the church up once again for Him. That's why I am here. I'm here because God really put it on my heart and serving Him above all is what matters to me. It's such a blessing especially when God uses you to bless others. Sometimes I think of like hwo many people shoudl one impact with God's love in your life time? And then I think, "one person" that is all we really deserve. If we can guide someone or help someone live their life for God, just one person, that is more than enough. I know that I have been blessed beyond measure, being able to bless so many people and being able to really give so much to help people know that God does love them. Try to also. I honestly am the most fulfilled when I am encouraging others. It's strange that it's not one of my spiritual gifts (supposedly). HUG!
So all of you hang tight and keep on leaning on God. I just praise Him for everything and give it all back to Him. God is the reason I breathe, I live, and I do what I do. It's all Him.
Have a good day and God bless!
