Jesus in me, thru me and for me

this morning i woke up wif a beautiful worship song in my heart.


i will cast all my cares upon You
i will lay all of my burdens down at Your feet
and anytime i dunno wat to do
i will cast all my cares upon You


yup...


it's officially the third day tt the booth at little india has opened and no business has come in yet so far.

the first day i was sitting down there while waiting for everyone to come, and i jus felt led to pray over the booth and all the stuff tt we are supposed to sell.

honestly, i sat down there the whole day doin nothin and yet i felt a peace which was beyond my understandin la...

i was readin a dear bro's blog and a revelation jus dawned upon me. tt situations will always be there and dun be affected by them lo. how? by leaning on Jesus.

seriously...it's not cliche to say this, but sumhow i learnt it the hard way. whenever i wanted to stand up and pass the brochures to passerbys, He jus told me to sit down n rest, watch Him work. although i have yet to see anythin happenin at the moment, i believe He will keep to His promise. even if this whole project doesnt fall thru, i will still be at peace.

cos being happy is easy when the situations around you are happening the way u want or expect them to be. being JOYFUL is when u have Christ in you n no matter wat comes your way, you will still be at peace aka 平常心.

doesnt mean tt if i managed to earn alot of money thru this project, i'll be happy. i will be but my joy doesnt depend on that. my joy comes from seeing Jesus work for me and thru me. my job is to jus literally rest and see Him work. my revelation is tt i got to understand tt right from the start, in and out of myself, i've got NOTHING. so remain in this state of knowing i've gt nothing at all, everything abt me sucks until i see Christ in me, thru me and for me. this is true humility.

time to grow up, Derek. maturity is not the ability to handle more stuff but the reality that you need Grace each and every moment of your life. you need Him TOTALLY and your reliance is on Him TOTALLY.

amen.


i deleted the last post because i heard that the pple that came out frm egypt, gt bitten by snakes because they murmured and complained abt God. hahahaha.... no lah...no condemnation in Christ..hahaha..jus feel tt i better delete it before i stumble myself.
