Gaahh, when i first heard these few lines, it was like a revelation to me! A totally mind blowing experience that just left me stunned for a few moments to let my brain slowly think it over. So the first time i heard it was at hillsong when they sang the "desert song" which these lyrics came from, and i was just so amazed at these words. They hit so hard because they are so simple, yet at the same time spoke to me so much. It's been coming back to me time and time again, that our lives are split into different seasons, just like a year..and that there are also perfect times for everything, e.g God's time. For the past half a year i've been through lots of weird times, not too sure if it's all part of the same season, but many of these times didn't leave me feeling too good.. in fact it left me feeling pretty dry and down.. At different times, i would be asking God why this is happening to me? or what's the meaning of this? or God are You even out there? how could You let this happen to me? What are you trying to show/tell me?

Then when i allowed these few words ring in my head, everything slowly started to click into place.. All of my life, and in every season that i'm in. God is still God, He is always there, and because of that, i have a reason to sing and a reason to worship Him! So in those moments in my life, God has always been there, near me, unchanging from being who He says He is. Be it what i'm going through, because God is still God, i WILL worship Him. The most recent event that happened in my life, would be the passing of my late grandma, and even though many things around me has changed, one thing that i know for sure that hasn't changed is God. His love for me will never ever change. And i thank Him for that. How do i thank Him? through my worship! So no matter how bad the situation looks like, God is always in control, and because He is God, everything will always work out. Because God's plan is always the best plan!

Ok back to buisness.

Day 32.(hope i'm not behind)

Today i read Exodus 19-21, and mainly on chapter 20 which is the ten commandments. Just to recap, here are the ten commandments. Do not have other Gods besides Me. Do not make an idol for yourself , and must not bow down and worship them. Do not misuse the name of the LORD your God. Remember to dedicate the Sabbath day. Honour your father and your mother. Do not murder. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not give false testimony against your neighbour. Do not covert your neighbours house, wife, slave, or anything that belongs to you neighbour. These are the ten commandments that are from God to us, they were commands for us to follow, not just suggestions. But if in the new testament Jesus came and gave us 2 commandments, which were both on love. Does that mean that we don't have to follow the old commandments in the old testament, since these were given under the law, and Jesus came through grace which is above the law? Do the ten commandments still apply to us?

Another interesting thing which i read yesterday which spoke to me was Exodus 15:26.

26 and said, “If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.”

I thought this was an awesome verse because it's like a cause and effect verse. If we diligently heed the voice of the LORD and do what is right in His sight, listen to His commandments and keep His statues. Then He will put/inflict any disease and illness on us like He did to the Egyptians. For He is the LORD who heals us! Hallelujah! How amazing is that! It another one of God's promises, and declaration of who He is!



Lord Jesus, i'm in awe of Your love and peace that reigns forevermore..
