We Trust You

God is in full control of every facet of our lives. He is faithful to the very end.

He orchestrates the circumstances of our lives.  Nothing escapes His eyes.  Nothing happens by chance.  God works in and through our broken lives.

He beckons us to trust Him.  He shows us that He is unparalleled.  No one can compare with Him.  He is unchanging.  There is no shifting shadows in Him.  We can trust our Maker.

As we posture our hearts to seek.  He pours His blessings on us.  He leads and guides us to green  pastures.  

All that remains is an intimacy that only His beloved children understand.  A bond so strong that nothing can separate us from the love of God.

Faithful God

We call to mind Your faithfulness.  You have raised us up.  You have placed Your hand upon our lives.  We will not be where we are without Your presence.  You are faithful and true.   

We call to mind Your love.  Your love surround us every moment of the day.  Your love lifts us up.  Your love empowers us.  Your love is divine.  Your love makes us strong.

We call to mind Your mercy.  We were condemned for destruction.  In Your mercy, You restore and renew us.  You give us hope and purpose to live.  Your mercy will follow as all the days of our lives.

Hope Alive

The Christian life is not a bed of roses.  Sometimes we go through waves of challenges.  We go through things that we may not comprehend.

The Lord beckons us to trust Him.  To know that we are in His good hands.  Faithful men and women have gone through the fire.  God upholds His righteous people.  He sustains us moment by moment.

Each day, God awakens us to His love.  All day long, He shows us glimpses of His grace and glory.  We stand amazed at His greatness.

In our darkest moments, God shows us a sliver of hope.  He pours His grace on us.  He reminds us of His faithfulness.

As long as we have breath, we will go on trusting our maker.  We posture our hearts to seek Him earnestly.  With wholehearted devotion, we bow in humble adoration.

The storm shall pass.  The flowers will bloom again.  The birds will fly again.  Hope burns bright and strong in those who put their trust in God.

Lead Us

Lead us to Your living streams.  Quench our thirst.  We want to drink from Your river.  Water our hearts, refresh and revitalise us.

Lead us to Your high mountains.  Let us linger.  Let us stay.  Let us behold Your might and power.  The mountains resound and ring with glorious refrain.  Let Your glorious name be exalted forevermore.

Lead us into Your presence.  We revel in Your love.  Let Your presence empower us.  Let Your presence renew us.  Let Your presence overpower us.  We need You desperately.

Thanksgiving

Each morning, my first response to God is thanksgiving. Thanking and praising the Lord from the depth of my heart.

Thanksgiving opens the door of our hearts to the power of God. It opens our hearts to the greatness of God. It opens our hearts to His wonder.

We leave no room for discouragement and despondency. We leave no room for fear and doubt to dampen our hearts.

God pours His love and power on us. He nourishes us with His love. He strengthens us by the power of His Spirit. He anoints us with holy oil as we step out in obedience.

Let the meditations of our hearts be pleasing to God. God sanctifies our every thought and motivation. He works His purposes and plans through every broken vessel.

Mighty God

Lord, this glorious day bursts with hope and optimism.

Teach us to rest in Your love.  Teach us to lean on You.  Teach us to wait upon You.

Nothing else matters, all we want is to see You high and lifted up.  All we need is found in You. 

Your empowering presence.  Your liberating love.  Your tenderness and mercy.  Your unfailing love.  

Let Your presence flood our hearts.  We rejoice in Your grace.

Loving Mum

God has blessed my two brothers and me with a loving mum.  

Mum has given us her very best.  She sacrifices and gives her all to us.  We can never outgive her.

Ours is an average income family.  Wealth and possession does not make a family.  Love builds a family.  Love and acceptance make a family whole.

My heart wells up with thanksgiving every time I think about my mum.

Move Upon Us

The river of great delight.  Your ever flowing river that refreshes and revitalises us.  Plunge us in Your river.  Immerse us completely.  Flow river flow.

Anoint us in the power of Your Spirit.  Sensitise us to the promptings of Your Spirit.  Move powerfully through our broken lives.  Move Spirit move.

Consume us with Your fire.  Let Your fire burn bright and strong within us.  Refiner's fire, burn deep and strong.  Do a deep and a lasting work in us.  Burn fire burn.

We Abide In You

We abide in You

We abide in Your love

We abide in Your presence 

We cling to You

We long For You

We need You

Thanking You

For solace and strength 

For peace and comfort

For hope and optimism 

We abide in Your love

Thankful

Due to my mum's Alzheimer's disease, she is unable to manage dates and days of the week.  I am so thankful that she can still tell time.

We Long To Hear Your Voice

We live in the light of Your glory.  We live in the light of Your love.  We live in the light of Your power.

Display Your power and Your glory in the earth.  Shine Your glorious light on us.  

Reveal the secrets of Your heart to us.  We long to hear Your voice.  We posture our hearts to seek You alone.

Mighty God

I just took a shot of the fluffy clouds in the blue sky from home.  It is breathtaking.

Lord, we come in humble adoration.  We come with open hearts.  We come with expectant hearts.  Move upon our broken lives this day.

Set Apart For You

We echo the words of the psalmist. We seek Your face. We want to know You. We want to encounter You daily. We are set apart for You.

Let our hearts be sensitive to the move of Your spirit. We want to hear Your voice. We want to know Your heart.

Almighty God, we serve You alone. The highest calling is to worship You. We bow. We prostrate before You. We worship You almighty God.

Lord, You are our prime preoccupation. Every part of our being belongs to You. Let our heart cry out to You unceasingly. You are the Lord of our lives. 

You are all that really matters. When our relationship with You is whole, every other area of our lives will fall in place.

You alone are worthy of all praise and glory. Saturate our hearts with Your abiding presence. Let us be a pleasing sacrifice to You. Make us an instrument of Your love today.

Draw us by Your power. Draw us by Your love. Let us run to Your presence. Let us seek You alone.

We have decided to follow You. There is no turning back. We have set our faces like flint before You. Consume our broken lives. Establish us in You. Raise us up to scale new heights in You. We trust You with all of our hearts.

Be Bold, Be Strong

God does not just build our faith, He grants us boldness. A boldness that comes from journeying with God. A boldness that comes right from the presence of God.

The stresses and challenges of life do not melt away our courage. As we wait on the Lord, we shall mount up with wings like eagles. We shall run and not be weary. We shall walk and not faint. 

We are bold. We are strong. We will not cower in fear. God unleashes His great power on us. He shows us the might of His strength. There is nothing our God cannot do.

As we step out in obedience, God's boldness and strength permeate through us. He does great exploits through broken vessels. He shows His greatness through broken lives.

The power of God comes on His righteous people. The power of God rests on the contrite in heart. As we humble ourselves before the Lord, He moves powerfully through us.

Merciful God

In October 2021, I underwent radiotherapy to treat my thyroid eye disease.  There were a total of 10 daily treatment sessions.

Besides radiotheray,  I underwent Intravenous Methylprenisolone treatment (IMPT) in March 2022.  I went through weekly treatment for 12 weeks.

With IMPT, I battled awful side effects.  Heart palpitations, leg cramps, leg stiffness, metallic taste in my mouth and insomnia.

To date, I am still following up with the specialists at Singapore National Eye Centre.

I call to mind the goodness and faithfulness of almighty God.  I was able to go through the difficult days because of the Lord. 

As I reflect on the days and months when I battled the side effects of IMPT.  I was not depending on my ability.  God gave me supernatural strength.  He empowered me with with hope and optimism.  The power of God is real.

The Lord watches over us.  His intervention and loving support sustain us daily.  As we trust our maker, He floods our hearts with His divine presence.  

God is with us.  He is with us in the raging storms.  He is in complete control.  In our chaos, His still small voice gives us immense strength and hope.

The goodness and mercy of God will follow us all the days of our lives.  As we set our eyes on the Lord, we anchor our hope in His unfailing love.
