Future: A New Season
I don’t just want to be excited – I want to be hungry, empty, broken and absorbent.
Bye for the weekend, from 3 – 6 July!
Loneliness
Loneliness is subjective.
You are doing things alone if you are looking to your own abilities, your own capacities, your own resources, scrounged up by your own sweat, blood and tears. It is self-absorbed, achieving for the sake of achievement or personal satisfaction. Nice feelings that last for a fleeting moment.
Guess what? People doing it alone usually don’t make it – let alone make it far.
I don’t want to be alone! I want to faithfully and joyfully love and keep in step with my Creator.
The Wonder of it All is
There’s the wonder at sunset at evening
The wondrous sunrise I see
But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
Is the wonder that God loves me
Heart of Worship
Not about what I accomplish in the long run,
not about my academic achievements,
not about the amount of money I have,
not about any social status I somehow possess,
not about what I seem to be doing well,
not about what I do to help people,
not about my own heart intentions,
not about how many people I help out,
not about how many good ministries I serve in,
not about the amount of times I read the bible in a day,
not about the spiritual or worldly music I listen to,
not about the posts about God I put in my blog,
not about the amount of times I bring up God in my own conversations.
They mean nothing if for my own benefit.
Am I living in constant obedience to what I know Jesus is saying to me?

We take a break from the formation of my self-conceived ’stress lines’ and disturbed sleep to support my very cool friend, Wei Xiong of twofrontteeth.net!
Why? No reason, Wei Xiong is just pretty inspirational. Loving Jesus does that to you!
29/5: Eunice Turns 18
Cannot find any other word to describe our friendship but divine. One richly steeped in sincerity, honesty, purpose and silliness. Perhaps one of my favourite inspirations, Eunice has no time for pretensions. She charges on, God-size vision set out before her, and faithfully walks on while always keeping one (super big) eye open for those who are to come. She follows Jesus with inhibitions laid aside, and she is an emerging woman of true integrity. She also bakes the most amazing cupcakes.
Thank you for sharing your life with me. I am deeply honoured and privileged to know you the way I do!
Have a great 18th, and I’ll see you soon!
