JourneyEveryday we live, we allow risks of disappointments, losing heart.. Lost of direction and helplessness. I've been feeling rather confused, well maybe not quite but more like.. a pasue.. waiting for answers in my life I know God will entrust into my life, directions to take, sometimes not the easy way.. never easy. Out of the confusion I've set myself into 1stly into this aj thing, and now withdrawing school for army. My mind has learnt to appreciate the simple things in a way. I've been listening to simple songs again, christian songs.
I feel peace within my heart and soul. Through frustrations we know peace, we know what hope truely is. Without the negative how can we truely know and understand the positive? Without suffering where is the reward? Through the songs I have been listening to, it gave me a conviction in my heart of the unknown. Sometimes truely frightening but also exciting. God I am starting to feel You all over again, understand You are here with me through all what may seem a route of hopelessness, but as i walk.. and not stop, I realize You are there nudging me along, like a little duckling being nudged to walk on.. and then into the water. A challenge one after another. Fragments in life I wont want to stay frustrated in but would want to want and remind myself that a fuller story will be revealed, tending to my lack of understanding to give a new wisdom with each phase of my life.
Just want to share a song I have been listening tonight. I feel whether Christian or not it could apply to our lives, the hope and journey we are walking on.
Title: I Will Rise - Chris Tomlin

There's a peace I've come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say "It is well"
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead
[Chorus:]
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise
I will rise
There's a day that's drawing near
When this darkness breaks to light
And the shadows disappear
And my faith shall be my eyes
Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead
[Chorus:]
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise
I will rise
And I hear the voice of many angels sing,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
And I hear the cry of every longing heart,
"Worthy is the Lamb"
[x2]
[Chorus:]
And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagles' wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise
I will rise
