for everyone

When the storm is raging all around me
You are the peace that calms
My troubled sea
And the cares of this world
Darken my day
You are the light that shines
And shows me the way

Oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me!

Beautiful Lord
Awesome and mighty
I’m captured by this love I see
Beautiful Lord
Tender and holy
Your mercy brings me to my knees
It’s Your mercy that has made me free
Beautiful Lord

When my sin is all that I can see
Your grace remains the shelter that I seek
And when my weakness is all I can give
Your gentle Spirit gives me strength again
And oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me

And I am lifted by Your love to sing!
It’s Your mercy that has made me free!

You’re beautiful, my Lord
You’re beautiful, my Lord

I just love the lyrics of this song. It tells what I want to say. I couldn't have written this, but I just love it, how beautiful is my God. He's so loving. I'm waiting for a prayer to be answered, and I already heard that it will.


Blog EntryTimes of my LifeAug 16, '08 5:39 PM
for everyone

There are times when...

...it feels like life is going nowhere.

...nothing feels right.

...everything I do seems wrong.

...there's this unworthy feeling. Unworthy of His love, unworthy of my friends, of all His blessings.

...I wish I was someone else, living another lifestyle.

...I wish I can be a child again, no problems, no responsibilities, no heartaches and suffering.

...I feel like there is more but I don't know how to get there.

...everyone seems to be living a better life than mine and I feel so envious, so embarrassed of my life.

...I feel so guilty, so dirty, full of sin and that I can't go to His presence anymore.

...I'm so fed up with everything that's happening, I wish I can just go to some far away land and never come back.

...I'm so fearful, fearful of the unknown, fearful of the future, fearful of the things that can happen and the things that won't happen.

...I'm so frustrated, frustrated because I keep wishing, wanting more.

...I don't see anything good in me, anything that can tell me I'm no the right track, that I can make it.

...I just wish someone would be there to encourage me, someone I can talk to and pour my heart out.

Unfortunately, I'm in that time of my life now. But unlike before, I'm learning how to deal with it. I won't say I'm so much better than before, that I can take care of myself and feel better in minutes, because I can't. It still takes a few days. I'm just so thankful that every time I go through this, after those times I feel closer to the Lord. I know it will happen. Whatever His plan is for my life, it will take place. When? I don't know. I just know that it will. That's what keeps me going...

 


Blog EntryFriend in me...Aug 5, '08 8:50 PM
for everyone

I have just come to realize how kind and understanding my friends are, maybe because I've just come to realize how hard it is to be with me. Always finding faults in others, not seeing the good things they do, the good qualities, not looking deeper into them, and I'm very, very moody. I'm really ashamed of it.

I had a close friend who is liked by everyone, she's about 7 years younger than me. What's not to like anyway? She's pretty, nice, fun to be with, always caring for others, very talented, very intelligent, fashionable and a lot more I can't really think of right now. Still, I found fault in her. In my mind I had a feeling that she's so trying to be somebody she's not. I found her fashion wild, I thought she wasn't supposed to dress like that because she's a Christian. (I know, I know, I was very very wrong!) Haven't seen her for almost 2 years now cause I had to go back to Philippines. I miss her and I'm regretting the way I've treated her even though she might not know it. How I wish I can turn back time and change...

Now, I have a friend who is, again, a Christian, liked by everyone, very pretty, fun to be with, and more. I'm treating her the same way. She likes to tell me stories, what's happening with her life, and I found it annoying. I'm still very moody, sometimes I really enjoy being with her, sometimes, gosh, I feel so bored. And sometimes, I even try to hide from her. I feel like she always want to spend a lot, something I can't do. Hayzz...so bad...

But I don't feel that way with all my friends. Just some.

No wonder I have only a few friends. It must be very hard to keep up with someone like me. I wonder too if they notice that.

I finally realize the root of it though. INSECURITY. I'm a person who's so insecure. They are better looking, they have better lives, etc. That's what's bugging me. I'm glad I finally came to that conclusion. I can change...through the Lord's help, I will... I don't want to be someone whom people don't like to be with. Salt of the earth, that's what I'm supposed to be...
