Reflections

okay the end of the hols has come... so sad, but i guess its time to reflect

i think i shall address my spiritual growth...

so i got into the music team and will be playing this sunday for youth sunday, i am going to do my best to glorify God through playing and God alone since he called me to do this and gave me the oppurtunity...

thank you Lord

i also realised that listening to nothing but christian music has made it so easy to put God in every part of my life... so now i make an effort to listen and actually think abut the lyrics and how they can relate to me and my relationship with Him.

i guess the Lord has shown me the way and quite a few signs as to what i should do with my life... maybe i am slowly starting to see that life really isnt that pointless... and that i live to worship God and to live according to his will... which in order to do i made the most heart wrenching decision

theres pain in the offering indeed

i guess all these things like christian music are really not wrong in themselves, it's just the attitude we take towards them. all christian songs are after all... praising God, nevermind who sings it or whatever, it all comes down to the song itself. i used to hate hymns so much, but now i see that they still praise God no matter how much i dislike them for various stupid reasons, so i dont shun them anymore

thank you Lord for showing me the way

however i still have my doubts... well in terms of schoolwork i dont think it was a holiday well spent, i didnt really catch up on most of my subjects like i should... i just hope that God will make a way for me

like he has always done.

Dear Lord,

I thank you for this time of holiday and free time you have given me father
thank you for revealing to me more of what your plan for me is
thank you even for the bad times father than you have helped me turn those to my advantage
I thank you that you have helped me grow more in your faith father, that i may no longer doubt your plans for me

I just pray that you will help me be focused on you father as i worship you this coming sunday, that i will worship You and You alone, and truly that i may have a heart of worship as i come into Your Presence father

I thank you for this oppurtunity that you have given me just to offer what i have to You

Thank you for everything You've done in me Lord, thank you for showing me your way and showing me that it is not easy to follow

but You have helped me along

For all You've done father,

i thank you

in Your Son's most precious and holy name,

amen
