House of God

House of God

This house has no walls
And this house has no floor
There is no ceiling
Are no doors in this house
This house is always moving
But this house cannot be moved
‘Cause love and peace
Will never leave this house
There's something about
And nothing like this house
It's my home away from home
I know I belong in this house

We are the House of God
His dwelling
Under an open heaven
We live
Built on the solid rock
Of Jesus
We are His Kingdom come
We are the House of God

This house is alive
This house is a bride
And angels are at home
Inside this house
Everything is true
And all things new in this house
This house is a church
It has no steeple
It's only made of Jesus’ people

You can know the sure foundation
You can taste sweet restoration
Come inside find your rest

Hes ABLE

He is Able
He is Able
I know Hes Able
I know my Lord is Able to carry me through

He heals the broken hearted
And set the captives free
He makes the lame to walk again
And cross the blind to see

You're my great big daddy God

dancing in Your footsteps
sing all the way home

i recently had a conversation with my dad.. i was worried about my further studies.. like what to do and where.. and there were a lot of factors. ranging from monetary issues to distance n all.. and he said one thing to me. he said don't you worry about the financial part of it. that is my responsibility. you go and do what you need to do. as long as it is God pleasing.

i was really touched from that statement he made.. here i was worrying about all the little things in life that seems really big to me. and only to find out to my dad, those things arent that important. yes they are impt but there is sth more impt to him. thats how i'm doing. that moment, i just had that kind of realisation of how much my dad loves me. :)

then, i thought back about my other dad.. the dad that is also a dad to my earthly dad. *nopes not my grandfather*.. and i realise how much His love is for me. so much more than what my earthly father loves me.. and then, i realise, its the same thing. my big daddy God doesnt want me to worry about all the nitty gritties that i think are important. instead, He wants me to focus on what is important to Him.

Matthew 6:25-32 talks about all the things we need not worry about. and at the end of this section, it ends of with the following 2 verses. "³³But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. ³⁴Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." And it tells us straight away what our Daddy wants us to do.. to seek Him first above everything else. and let the rest fall into its place. and remember that HE is in control of everything else.

Have you seeked Him today? or have you been holding on to everything you can possibly see? Maybe its time to let Him take control of your circumstances.. :)

Psalms 23

¹ The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

² He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

³ he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

⁴ Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

⁵ You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

⁶ Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

Indeed, our God is an awesome God.. This Psalm has been through thick and thin with me, and has been there to encourage me through my 21 years of my life (ok maybe slightly lesser cos i only committed it to memory when i was 9 mayb? haha).. thats besides the point anyway :) i really hope this Psalm will be an encouragement for everyone just as it has been for me.. and more importantly, i pray that we will all find rest in God even during this hectic period of exams. remember "God is our REFUGE and STRENGTH, an ever-present help in trouble" - Psalms 46:1-

Dear Lord, i just want to pray for everyone reading this, especially if they are preparing for their exams, give them the wisdom and knowledge they need, help them to continually keep their focus on You even during this period. Give them the peace when they study so that they will know You are with them and help them to be able to concentrate in everything that they do. AMEN!

How can we meet Your needs today?
Here we are, send us.

Holy Spirit, we depend on You,
