from the highest of heights to the depths of the sea creation's revealing Your majesty from the colours of fall to the fragrance of spring every creature unique and the song it sings all exclaiming..
indescribable, uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name You are amazing, God all powerful, untamable awestruck, we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim You are amazing, God
who has told every lightning bolt where it should go? or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow? who imagined the Sun and gives source to its light? yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night none can fathom..
indescribable. amazing how God is moving. just read alvin's blog and i guess lois has shared with him the stuff we've been talking abt the past weeks. it's so often that we just pass one another by thinking that all's well with that person. thinking that someone else will do the talking. but i guess God deals with each one of us in His own way. so often i've stepped out of my comfort zone but stepped back in when i see no one's following. so often people say we'll do it together but yet we fail. so often i've had the mentality that some other people will do the job for me. so often i've been discouraged by the fact that people are not moving at all. it takes time. but God is waiting for that one of us to make the difference. but so often we're bounded by human relations that we fail to do so. as the teachers always say many years ago, God is watching. without a doubt i guess. so often we neglect one another during the week. so often we allow others to fall behind as we move on. so often we care only about what happens within our comfort zone that we forget to pull and hold on to the rest.
realisation set in when i began to experience for myself what it felt. God dealt with me and opened my eyes to see what's really going on in and around church. the people whom we claim to have grown up together with. are we really growing with them? where were we when they had empty slots in their lives? we were mostly there perhaps to share the joy but not the sorrow. how easy can that be?
we keep praying for a revival as a ministry. but revival is not going to come unless we come together as one. God is not going to send a revival when he knows that His people are not in line with Him. His people are not coming together as one body. His people are coming together as individuals in a group. people come and go. they find that they cant grow here and they leave without helping it to grow. so often we let our will be done rather than His. many people cannot see the point behind everything. it's hard to get people to hear, let alone listen.
