ANOTHER YEAR IN THE LORD!!
Another year has passed!! Looking back upon all these years of the wonderful blessings He has faithfully showered me with, it is indeed His mercy and grace that i would thank Him for!! As i ente into another year of spiritual maturity in Him, my prayer is that He wud continue to use me as a vessel to be a blessing to the people who will cross my path...
1) All that i am, all that i have
I lay them down before You, O Lord
All my regrets, all my acclaims
The joy and the pain
I'm making them Yours
CH: Lord, i offer my life to You
Everything i've been thru
Use it for Your glory
Lord, i offer my days to You
Lifting my praise to You
As a pleasing sacrifice
Lord, i offer You my life
2) Things in the past, things yet unseen
Visions and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my hopes, and all of my plans
My heart and my hands
Are lifted to You
Every part of this song has really ministered to me in it's very own way, and i thank You Lord for showing me the truth!! First, He asks me to surrender and lay all of myself before Him at the cross... the good and the bad, give it to Him!! the old has to go before the new can come in, amen? eheh... Lord, i offer my life to You, use it for Your glory, that Your name may be glorified!! things in the past, only You see and know all of it... and those unseen, no one wud be able to tell, except You alone... i surrender it all to You becoz i know You will carry it with me... everything that i have gone thru, experiences good or bad, i hand it over to You and i choose not to let it affect me, focusing only to look ahead... i may not knw wat is yet to come, wat You have in store for me, but i'm willing to obey You (only You and Your will), trusting You for the best!!
To my dearest family (mom, dad, est and ed), thanks for making this day a truly wonderful and memorable one =D honestly, i was kinda surprised by dad's prayer, if u know exactly which one i meant *winkz* dont worry, i do know what's right and what's wrong... and i DEFINITELY want His BEST for myself, amen? remember phil 4:8? RIGHT CHOICE + RIGHT TIME = GOD'S PERFECT WILL!!
Thanx for the gift, although it is really not the matter of gifts, but the thoughts that count, doesnt matter big or small... haha, i seriously didnt expect that... God sees and hears unspoken thoughts, amen? speaking of which, i received a lil something from auntie elly a.k.a. my godmother (haha!!) and family, which was also an unspoken thought, really!! very sweet of u =D honestly, i have been eyeing that book for a long time now... juz that i told myself i'd have to hold on, be patient and get it later...
well, i guess my patience is paid off, haha... thanx again to the Teng family... love u all!! esp to ray, thanx for being there for me, thanx for being such a great and wonderful friend, a great listener when i shared my heart out to u... u dont need to come out with solutions for me, but juz the fact that u availed yourself to LISTEN!! that's good enuff, dear... thanx again... appreciate it LOTS, really!!
all in all, thank God for such a wonderful day... Lord, i thank You for this life You have given to me... teach me to live it to the fullest for Your glory!! AMEN!!
