Father, take me home

And quench this misery

I’m lost and all alone

Take this cup from me

Over the pain, above the storm

I hear you whispering

You beckon me

"Come closer child

Listen to my love"

Send revival in my heart

God, sanctify every part

With Your love, with Your love

Give me a passion for Your Name

To sing aloud to You who came

With Your love, with Your love

Consuming Fire

Would You fill this sinful heart?

That I may worship You forever

Consuming Fire

Cleanse me with Your holy power

That I may rise with You in splendor

Consume me now

Overwhelm me with Your grace

Set me free to win the race

With Your love, with Your love

Send us out with Your mercy

To world, Lord we’ll speak

With Your love, with Your love

This is just a rough draft.

I will most likely make changes later.

Fill my sail

Guide my boat

Hold my hand

Don’t let go

Take my feet

Give them wings

Blow my mind

With new things

Take me to new places

Fly me to new heights

Tired of these old spaces

Live like a kite

Vivacity, vitality

Evanescent, a drop of dew

There once was a king

He had everything

Life, love, a queen

Merely notion and reflection

Broken honor, Shattered crown

Veracity, sincerity

Fragility, a blade of glass

A word, a slam of the door

I was tossed to the street

I’m a beggar boy now with nothing to eat

I linger for crumbs, for anything

Broken spirit, ruined heart

I know they’re worth something

[sometimes] To have everything is loss.

and

[sometimes] To have nothing is gain.

and

[most of the time] It hurts.

Give me words, and I would speak them

Give me notes, and I would sing them

Give me thoughts, and I would dream them

Give me hopes, and I would hope them

Give me love, and I would live.

Take these away, and You were. Are. Will be.

Phil 3:7-11

But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ.

Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.

For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith—

that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.

ESV

I want so badly to be angry at something or someone


...and then there's God's promises.

They diffuse all rage and sullen hurt.

And I thank God for that.

Jer 29:11-14

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord,

plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

…I will be found by you, declares the Lord

NIV

No eye has seen, no ear has heard


And no mind has imagined


What God has prepared


For those who love him




1 Cor 2:9

Isaiah 40:28-31

...

The Everlasting God, the Lord,

The Creator of the ends of the earth

Does not become weary or tired.

His understanding is inscrutable.

He gives strength to the weary,

And to him who lacks might He increases power.

Though youths grow weary and tired,

And vigorous young men stumble badly,

Yet those who wait for the Lord

Will gain new strength;

They will mount up with wings like eagles,

They will run and not get tired,

They will walk and not become weary.

NASU

From whence I came, I do not know

To whence I go, I cannot tell

Jaded is my mind

And weary is my conscience

‘Twas guilt and shame that rendered such a motive

To smout out the existence of such an object of failure

In other words, I’m tired of feeling guilty for not posting anything for so long. And since I don’t really have time spend on useless postings (or rather, the time I do have, I’d rather not spend on posting “stuff”), I am inclined to shut down my blog (yes, delete) so that I feel less guilty, and so you two persons who actually check this thing will not be disappointed every time you come here.

Well, alot's happened since my last post. I've been busy so i haven't had the time to post... sorry.

BUT, of the reasons i've been busy is because my band and i just finished recording our first project called the Beautiful Sun EP. It will probably be available by September, but until then, you can check out our myspace for pics, news, and a free clip of the title track "Beautiful Sun."

thanks

goodbye.

At our annual "Day Family Picnic", one of the old folks had brought an old photo album with a bunch of old pictures. Yeah, that's what I thought! So i scanned a couple of them and here they are...

This is my family, take it or leave it.

The GRACE and MERCY of the cross



Is neither HINDERED nor OVERCOME



By the SIN and WRETCHEDNESS of my heart.

So on my way back from picking strawberries that one glorious day. I saw some rusty 'ol stuff laying around. So I snapped a few shots. I'm not really sure why, but rust really fascinates me. I think it might be because I have rusty looking hair. or something. Anyway, here they are.

I purposely didn't give them all the same color attributes, because I wanted to see the various colors of rust and it's stages. Thus, every picture is different. I like it that way.
