A WARRIOR PRINCESS JOURNEY

Disturbed by the Unimaginable

2008-09-12T19:33:00.000-07:00

As I wandered through the wilderness lately, I found myself staring up the sky. Hoping for my manna. My eyes directed towards the burning sun, the silver moon, the twinkling stars. Wondered how near? how far? how many million light years away? trying to compute how old would I be if I start measuring the distance..

Disturbed by the unimaginable. I found this interesting video of Chris Tomlin's "UNDESCRIBABLE". Check out how our neighbors look like!!

The funny thing bout this gazing moments, I felt like a teenager day dreamin of herself with her crush holding hands while walking--HHWW. waiting for the falling stars. the galaxy fireworks. wish upon the stars.

Now, imagine that. LOL

I BREATHE BY YOUR MERCY

Here's an original. I wrote it as I wait for rescue. This was the time when I fear He was not listening because there were no words... And as JARS OF CLAY would say (check out their VALLEY SONG) --- no words but only the stillness and hunger for a faith that assures...

My flesh is starving

But You contain me

I could be restless,
I could be impulsive

oh God who loves mercy
God who desires mercy
God full of mercy
...breathe on me

And I breathe by Your mercy...
And I stand by Your grace...

REPEAT ALL

For in that Cross.. mercy could freely flow (repeat til fade)

Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

HE DOESN'T CHANGE

2008-02-08T03:21:00.000-08:00

This time, I had to soak into His presence for days and weeks before I could clearly see, and not just see but to accept, as in capital A-C-C-E-P-T the NEW THING that He had been doing and He is doing in my life and my family. I beg Him, as I always do, to take me out of the wilderness. But the more broken I am, the more I gain knowledge & understanding of Him.

This time I saw a distinct character of Him--- HE DOESN'T CHANGE. GOD DOESN'T CHANGE. For His original intention for His people remains eternally the same! People are still made holy by grace through faith being washed in the blood of Jesus. But His manner & methods He does His work have and do change.

And these methods do come in many forms --- job or contract termination , a love one dies, malignant diagnosis, broken marriage or a spouse's affair, an unforgivable offense, a dying relative, a principal notice, run-away bride on a wedding day, and all the hidden things that we have not yet known.

The one and only true God of all creation wants to comfort us and somehow prepare us for the new thing He is doing. ISAIAH 42:9 says "See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce then to you."---God is really going to do His new thing whether or not we see it. But He certainly hopes that we do. So that we can experience , take part in something unheard of, refreshing and new!

SOMETHING NEW this new year..

I didnt understand what Don Moen meant by GOD WILL MAKE A WAY until God did SOMETHING NEW this new year. I been hearing and singing this song since my college days -- where-there-seems-to-be-no-way when a broken heart and a quatro hit my class card...sometimes reality do bites and cuts like a knife that takes almost the life in us.

BUT take a deep breath, whine if we have to, say our deepest prayer, count one to ten. And behold! God do make a pathway in our wilderness. it might not be the SOMETHING NEW that we want. but indeed if we choose to percieve it, there are rivers in our desert!

then life can go on. renewed and refreshed. somehow taking progress on its own. as we wait for the next SOMETHING NEW to spring up.

may we all be bless by the rivers in our deserts in this brand new year!

GOD WILL MAKE A WAY

God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day
He will make a way He will make a way

By a roadway in the wilderness
He'll lead me
And rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His word will still remain
He will do SOMETHING NEW today.
