rediscovering eden
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

Don't be satisfied with where you are with God nowwe experienced a revival, it stirred as we prayed and seeked, while we were on our knees, while we were on our knees...everyone saw God REALLY moving in our fellowship. today. and for years to come. Praise Him!

Haha seeing as this blog's already dead, I'm wanted give it some life, but i guess Father would be the only One who could ressurect this blog like no other. I just wanted to post about what happened today, and since i can't also make much sense of what actually happened today, so sorry if i don't make much sense while rambling on.
For those that went today, i don't know about you guys, it's just really been a long time since we ever went through such a worship session. And today, i knelt, we knelt, we really knelt. Just think about it, when was the last time you (whoever is reading this,its YOU) knelt before God, be humbled to the point of nothingness, of brokeness? Every week we come to fellowship, or maybe to church, to first worship, proclaim His name as the first, pray and share with each other, tell one another about our own troubles, our own happenings over the past week, pray for each other and just talk. Not to say that's not good, in fact, that makes for good fellowship, but i ask you, where is God in all of this?
You know what? The truth is, this fellowship is dead. We all know it. People have been saying it for months, its just that when people start breaking down before God, start crying out confessions, start screaming out the weight of their sin that we're confronted with the truth of how dead we, as individuals, as a fellowship, actually are. The signs were all along there you know? First we had the good samaritan, calling for us to see ourselves as broken people, then the beatitudes, which called for the 'poor in spirit', and for 'mourning', then i keep hearing people being increasingly rendered sick, getting further and further away from God,becoming more and more vulnerable. Yet in spite of all that we put on a strong face, week after week i see people putting on masks of happiness, making jokes, laughing, keeping all the pain inside secret. Should it be this way? Are we not a fellowship who is faithful? To God? And to men?
For those who haven't realized the significance of today's happening, the Spirit has put the truth right in front of us. Today marks a turning point, a turning point at which we all reaffirm, realign and restore our relationship, that intimacy that Father desires. He calls to us right now, as He called to Adam, "Where are you?". I urge you, if you haven't done so, ignore all the exams, the parents, friends, whatever that you can see right now, just kneel down, break yourself like the woman broke the valuable jar of perfume to wash Jesus' feet, be nothing before the faithful one of heaven, and lay all bare before Him, confess everything you have, hide nothing in His sight. Please, don't die to Christ, be alive in Him, always.
With the love that comes from Christ,
your faithful brother.
