God awakens us each day to His love.Our hearts beat with joy and anticipation because we have an awesome privilege of journeying with our maker and master this new day.We burst forth with strength and vitality because He strengthens our feeble limbs and set us on an amazing journey of love.When we are captured by His love, our life and perspective has its bearing on things that are eternal.Our focus on the lover of our soul sharpens as we pursue the Lord with wholehearted devotion and abandonment.Lost in His love, we bask in His presence longing for more of Him because He alone can satisfy us.
Yesterday morning, I was conducting a Public Speaking class to Primary five students at a school in Seng Kang. I was greatly encouraged by their enthusiasm and participation. They were such wonderful kids.
I thank God for allowing me to be an enrichment trainer. There is never a dull moment. Children are reciprocal; they are relatable and very engaging. I look forward to see them for the subsequent sessions.
Life is beautiful because we have the Lord. He colours our life with His love, mercy and creativity. His presence fills the void deep within the depth of our heart and spirit. He draws us by His Spirit and empowers us to live for Him. As the Lord leads us deeper into His divine presence, we experience full liberty and wholeness. His powerful presence expels all our bondages and we are set free to worship the living God. He comes in His awesome power to bring us to our knees in humble adoration. We declare His Lordship over us. We have every reason to live life to the fullest because He has made all things beautiful. He has made our life beautiful beyond description.
Monte and my parents are in their golden years now.Our mothers are in their mid 60s and our fathers in their early seventiesGod has blessed us with wonderful parents.They never fail to encourage and look after our needs though we are both elderly
Our parents face health challenges and we daily bring them before the Lord. Often times, our mothers have to manage pain from arthritis or muscle ache which leave them with sleepless nights.Osteoporosis makes a fall deadly because their bones have become brittle.
We commit our parents to the Lord in prayer as often as we can.And Jesus is as near as the mention of His name for as we uphold our parents to the Lord, He watches over our loved ones. We continue to rely on Him to cover and protect them at all times. We love and appreciate our parents deeply.
Valentine’s Day is a very significant day for Monte and I because we started our courtship on Valentine's Day in 1998. We have never looked back since that special day. It brought back beautiful memories of our love. Those were the days of sweaty palms when we held hands probably because we were nervous.
Monte proposed to me and we tied the knot in March 1999. The rest is history. We thank God for each other. “Two is better than one”. We have gone through thick and thin together. Loving, believing, supporting, trusting, encouraging and spurring each other on to love Jesus are some of the important pillars of marriage. We continue to live in the glory of His grace in the household of faith for the praise of His glory.
Because of who You are, we can stand strong and tall. Because of who You are, we have reason to live each day with expectancy. Let Your praise saturate us through and through.
We are so unworthy of all that You’ve bestowed upon us and yet You have never chugged us aside. You’ve never condemned us to utter sin and damnation. You raised us up so that we can be strong in You and soar into sky like the eagle.
Because Of Who You Are
You spoke the words and all the words came into order
You waved your hands and planets filled the empty skies
You placed the woman and the man inside the garden
And though they fell they found compassion in your eyes
Oh Lord I stand amazed at the wonder of your deeds
and yet a greater wonder brings me to my knees
Lord I praise you, Because of who you are
Not just for all the mighty things that you have done
Lord I worship you, because of who you are
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise
Because of who you are
One holy night you brought the promise from a virgin
And promise grew as he revealed to us your heart
Enduring love displayed through out his Crucifixion
And in the dark, you tore the grave and death apart
Oh Lord I stand amazed at the wonder of your deeds
and yet a greater wonder brings me to my knees
Lord I praise you, Because of who you are
Not just for all the mighty things that you have done
Lord I worship you, because of who you are
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise
Because of who you are
Lord I praise you, Because of who you are
Not just for all the mighty things that you have done
Lord I worship you, because of who you are
You're all the reason that I need to voice my praise
The best place that we can be in is none other than the presence of God. As life’s mounting pressure comes upon us, we press in into His presence. The Lord gives us peace, hope, strength and comfort in daily living. Hungering for His touch leads us to know more of His heart. As He unfolds His purpose and will for us, we can then fulfill His command by the power of His Spirit. Lord, grant us an insatiable hunger for You and You alone.
Today is Monte’s birthday. I have been blessed with a wonderful husband. He constantly encourages and challenges me to reach my fullest potential in every area of my life. I thank God for allowing me to share my life with him.
Our journey together has been so rich. God leads us daily by His love and grace. He pours His mercy and tender lovingkindness into our lives. We can only go as far as He allows us to venture. Every new day is a day of new beginning, a day of hope and possibilities. As we give each day to our Master, He never fails to show us His faithfulness and grace.
Someone once said that “Tough times does not diminish the presence of God”. On the contrary, in challenging times, we persevere and trust God to perform a miracle.
We cry out to God in desperation because we know that until and unless the Lord intervenes in our precarious situations, we are doomed. While we are in the eye of the storm, God does His greatest work in us. We may be at the edge of a cliff, God in His love comes to our rescue.
He brings deliverance and hope in our darkest hour. God is alive, He has made us His habitation to shine forth His glorious light.
The mighty presence of God is felt by those who call on the name of Jesus. The unseen hand of God reaches out to us. He rescues and helps us in our time of need. Nothing this world can offer can replace God's awesome presence in our lives.
As God pours forth His Spirit on us, we experience wholeness, healing and strength.
Lord, come like a mighty river and wash over us. We want to be completely immersed in the river of Your Spirit. Touch our broken lives for Your glory.
