Eventful Day #1

I watched the High School Musical 3 premiere last night at midnight with Tiffany & Jennifer. I'd say it was worth watching :) WAY better than the first two movies of High School Musical. The storyline was better. The songs were better. The choreography was better. Just everything in general was better. It was worth $10.25 :D

RANDOM THOUGHT #1


When I say, “I am a Christian”

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I’m not shouting “I've been saved!” I’m whispering, “I get lost! That's why I chose this way.”

When I say, “I am a Christian,”I don’t speak with human pride. I’m confessing that I stumble - needing God to be my guide.

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I’m not trying to be strong. I’m professing that I’m weak, and pray for strength to carry on. 

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I’m not bragging of success. I’m admitting that I've failed and cannot ever pay the debt.

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I don't think I know it all. I submit to my confusion, asking humbly to be taught.

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I’m not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I’m worth it.

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartache, which is why I seek His name.

When I say, “I am a Christian,” I do not wish to judge. I have no authority -- I only know I’m loved.

SPIRITUAL GROWTH #1


I read this psalm a couple of minutes ago. I read this psalm so many times before, but after flipping through pages earlier, my eyes were laid on these verses. It captured my heart in a great way because it's so beautiful..

O God, you are my God;
I earnestly search for You.
My soul thirsts for You;
my whole body longs for You
in this parched and weary land
where there is no water.

I have seen You in your sanctuary
and gazed upon Your power and glory.
Your unfailing love is better to me than life itself;
how I praise You!
I will honor You as long as I live,
lifting up my hands to You in prayer.
You satisfy me more than the richest of foods.
I will praise you with songs of joy.

I lie awake thinking of you,
meditating on You through the night.
I think how much You have helped me;
I sing for joy in the shadow of Your protecting wings.
I follow close behind You;
your strong right hand holds me securely.

- Psalm 63:1-8


Your love oh Lord is better than life itself. 
No matter what trials we mey go through Your love is what gets us through each situation. You give us comfort. Hope. Renewal. Peace. Counsel. Strength. What other person or god can do that but You? 
Your love is easily accessible. We just need to acknowledge that it's constantly right beside us and keep clinging onto it. 
Your love sets us free from our burdens..

BLOGGER > LIVEJOURNAL

So I've moved to blogger because livejournal was getting too boring for me. I was also influenced by Jon to move onto here as well. 
Well, I'm going to use this blogger for many reasons. To talk about randomness. To tell about what happens during eventful days. To vent. To encourage. To exhort what I have learned. For spiritual growth. And so forth and so on.
