love revolution.

joyce meyers' message today at church was great!
wow. i really can't believe she's 62! she has so much energy in her, and God's spirit moves so powerfully in her!

i've really felt so far away from God lately. I just can't tell why. It's like my heart's not as soft as it used to be. I feel kinda numb sometimes. Quiet time has become obligation and i just don't feel the fire anymore. I sometimes don't even feel like bothering about the school n hostel prayer group, like "what's the point? i have homework to do no time for this..." ... But today's service has sorta poked me in the rib and remind me that it's MY RESPOSIBILITY to keep the passion going on for God! :) Her message was downright practical and the point was so clear cut:-

Love yourself and love life!

she mentions that we all have a relationship with ourselves! how much we love ourselves is somehow how much we'll end up loving others. In fact, you're probably not gonna like anything else if you don't love yourself. Get to know who you really are and stop trying to be someone else! Recieve God's love! If you're really filled with the Holy Ghost you should be happy! It's simple logic isn't it, we're guaranteed a place in heaven! Life on earth should then be a celebration shouldn't it?

and what better way to enjoy life than to love. She says she wants to start a love revolution, where everyone's drunk on God's love and the overwhelming love just flows outta you! There's so much power in the little things in life! There are so many opportunities that come by each day to do the little things for others that makes so much difference! Just like Jesus! Imagine having just been ressurected from death! And what does he do? He makes his disciples breakfast! The great n almighty God, in all his glory n splendour, makes his disciples breakfast with his holy hands! :) It's the little things that make us love Jesus so much isn't it? It's how he washes his disciples feet, how he stops to heal hurts and just how he expresses his perfect love in the simplest ways :) wow.

oh n here's a great idea:-
+ when you're not happy, go n make someone else happy!
+ when you're feeling lonely, go to someone who's worse off than you and make him or her feel less lonely

wow wow wow. great day at church and a message in due season.

p/s: thanks kwang ying again for taking out the trash and jie kai for the CD :)

here i come dear Jesus, light me up inside! :)
