here it goes..
I’m not afraid of where I will end up, because I know the plans are good and only to prosper! But I want to know..soon? pls? haha :)
Most of my disappointment usually stems from this desire to be ‘intelligent.’ I’m learning. It’s not about me,anyway.
People have different ‘intelligences,’ so to speak, so my previous understanding has been flawed.
So the...
exhausting year. i could sleep for a month.
mental day off, please
let it be right by you, let your judgements help me
It seems like only yesterday
we bloomed into full-grown flowers
and released a sigh of relief.
But we stumbled across Autumn
and were told it would be okay,
we would find ourselves in this state again.
a must watch.

heavy heart
All that I am is in Your hands, so let it be. I will empty myself, that You may fill. For what do i really desire but to dwell in Your courts forever? So fill these days with Your grace that my spirit may rejoice in the truth.

We lost our beloved HH Pope Shenouda the third last night. What a great loss to this world but a great gain in Heaven. He truly fought every battle with prayer & love. He was a man full of great peace, joy & love. No doubt the Lord had equipped him with everything he needed to take the…

I will play fairies, and princess with you. I will dress up and I will invent with you, I will draw my sword with you. We will be kings and queens, we will be indians and cowboys. To me they’re just games, but you, you believe you can be anything!
You believe what you hear, you will envisage and you will create. You do not know what we call, ‘reality.’ Your reality is:...

“Do I possess the house in which I live? No, it is only on loan to me from God while I remain in that place. Do I possess the clothes I wear? No, they are on loan to me until they wear out, or until I give them away to someone in greater need. Do I possess this body that you see before you? No, it was lent to me by God when I was born, and He will take it back when I die. Do I possess the...

Am currently cruising on the Pacific Sun with my family and a few other church families. As we sail, we are engulfed by a carpet of endless sea and I marvel at the works of Your hands.
You can’t walk in a straight line on the ship if you tried, at best a zig zag, because of the unsteady motion of the ship. This just means it takes longer to get to places lol.
The service on the ship is...
Psalm 32
1Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, Whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old Through my groaning all the day long. 4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; My vitality was turned into the...
When I took my heart out →
complete-in-christ:
When I took my heart out, of Your grasp O Lord,
I took it from Your tender hands,
And gave it to another, forgetting my first Love,
Thinking without You I could stand.
But it was trampled upon, wounded and used
Fell broken with no strength to rise
But as it laid in the depths, laid falling apart
From the depths it began to cry
So You whispered my name, and...
I often wonder if that which is holy and lives within us has ever touched you…
It is not we ourselves, but that which fills and pervades, that which provides and remakes, that which was, and is and is to come

Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth i will cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For You have been a shelter for me, I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.

Whatever difficulties there may be, whatever dangers, each of my days will start radiantly if I remember-with my whole soul and all my thought-that my Saviour has conquered the powers of evil and death.

For how am I to know what lies ahead?
Should I not take chances because things may take a turn?
Where shall I go, or what shall I do?
Here I am waiting for me to know,
for me to grow;
for my sight.
And now I silently pray — hear my words today

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.
— Hebrews 12:1
Ps 65:11; Ps 81:1 You crown the year with Your goodness, And Your paths drip with abundance. Sing aloud to God our strength; Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob.
Psalm 102:24-26
I said, “O my God, Do not take me away in the midst of my days; Your years are throughout all generations. Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands. They will perish, but You will endure; Yes, they will all grow old like a garment; Like a cloak You will change them, And they will be changed.
O Lord, if You permit, grant me strength let me not displease You, carry me in Your righteous right hand and heal my wounded heart.
Jesus Prayer Song My Lord Jesus Christ, Thou True Son of God, Have Mercy upon me, I the sinner.
I am weak and frail Lord, And I cannot fight; Grant me strength my Saviour, Lord I need Thy might!
Lord the righteous suffer, So then what of me? Lord I fall more often, What vict’ry can I see?! I sometimes feel forsaken; I feel I cannot cope. Where is Thy aid, Lord? In what can I hope?

You will show me the path of life;
In Your presence is fullness of joy;
At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Nevertheless I am continually with You;
You hold me by my right hand.
You will guide me with Your counsel.
— Ps. 73: 23, 24
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
O Lord, You know my coming in and my going out. Strengthen me according to Your word.
He lifts me above the high hills and directs
my goal toward the heavenly home, so that
I may be filled with all the fullness of God.
— St. Augustine
