Your love is amazing
Steady and unchanging
Your love is a mountain
Firm beneath my feet
Your love is a mystery
How You gently life me
When I am surrounded
Your love carries me
CHORUS
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Your love makes me sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Your love makes me sing
Your love is surprising
I can feel it rising
All the joy that’s growing
Deep inside of me
And every time I see you
All your goodness shines through
And I can feel this God song rising up in me
i was just thinking about the time i just arrived in perth with my dad. small, helpless, vulnerable. HAHAHA anyway.. for the first few weeks we went about to different churches here and there.. although there were nice people, i didnt really like the idea of attending those churches every week. and being terribly shy and anti-social didnt really help much cus i would just glue myself to my dad everywhere he went.
but one fine day, after a few weeks of hopping around, we hopped into subi church of Christ, warmly greeted by the stand-at-the-door-to-shake-hands people, one of which was auntie deborah who talked to us as if she knew us long ago. she then introduced me to glennabanana (due to some miscommunications, i thought she was a mother of 3 HAHAHA) who invited me to ocf but on that night i entered the wrong room and joined friday night live instead .. i attended ocf after that and LO AND BEHOLD, here i am! happy in OCF =D
God is so amazing in the ways that He provides. if i had decided to attend those churches before, i wouldn have joined ocf, i might not even know what is OT and thus be stressed doing a course i dont really enjoy + cant imagine myself doing in the future. i love to look back and find out how everything clicks into place without myself realising. when i was frustrated about not being able to find a church i would enjoy attending regularly, God wanted me to wait, because He had a brilliant plan, far better than i could have imagined. it doesnt only affect my every sundays but also my every weekdays and my life ahead.
in the same way, while we were all worried bout my dad not being able to find a house in the first few weeks/months, God wanted us to wait, because He's got a much better plan for us. I'm awfully grateful to be staying in such a safe and peaceful area which is convenient and very pretty at the same time. while we were worrying about all these, we were merely concentrating on a single piece of jigsaw puzzle while God was dealing with the great big gigantic enormous picture. like that chinese story about the blind men trying to figure out what exactly an elephant was: the one holding the trunk said its long and skinny, the one holding the ear said its big and flat, the one holding the leg said its a big stump, all because they couldnt look at the big picture. and i guess that's what i tend to do. complain, whinge, whine, when actually its all part of a bigger and better plan. but thank You Lord, for remaining faithful, continually providing for me and loving me unconditionally.
Rejoice in the Lord always, and again i say REJOICE =)
