To Know Your Name....

hello everyone =) so sorry for not blogging for such a long time haha I think this line is getting very cliche for every post I do haha but hey if not for me cheonging at Lim Chu Kang with "Pea blanks" and "Universal Rounds" d' you think you can sleep safely at night ??


I dont know about you guys but have you ever slept with your MP3 on and had a particular song stuck in your head after you woke up ?? Well that exactly happened to me ... but the funny thing was that I had no idea of the song title because I just bought the CD... but this particular tune and stanza just kept playing in my head for the next 2 weeks..


Arrested by your truth and righteousness,
your grace has overwhelmed my brokenness


I didnt have the opportunity to look for the song in my I pod because of all the cheong sua and lectures I had to attend in camp, so it got quite frustrating because there's an urge to know what in the world is this title!!!!!


It's like a horrible itch which you cant reach to scratch especially when the tune is soooooooo immaculately catchy..... it was only till yesterday did I discover the title of the song.....and that is "To know your name" by hillsong from the Saviour King album


No surprises on how I discovered the song... everytime I go home from town, I prefer taking Bus 16 and walk home from the indoor stadium ...there I would dedicate the 20 mins walk home to God... its those sort of "Hi Lord what do you have for me today ??"


So I began scrolling through my song list when I suddenly felt prompted by the spirit "hey frans listen to this song" ... Well initially I wanted to skip to another song because I wasnt in the mood for new songs but reluctantly I did


what came next was 20 mins of holy spirit session haha I realised that God wanted me to know how much we meant to him and no matter whatever we do, his grace is the biggest umbrella which will shelter anything the world may throw at us. I am sure all of us know this but sometimes the phrases, and words of encouragement get dilluted through constant use and we need to just experience it all over again


The reason why I m posting this is not only to say that God cares for us and love us but ask "Do we listen to God? and do we have a conversation relationship with him??" It took me 2 weeks to understand Grace all over again but it was simply overwhelming.....


God works in wonderous, mysterious ways and we shouldnt brush it off as a form of coincidence

"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim he work of his hands;
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge.
There is no language where their voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out into all the earth their words to the ends of the world . " Psalm 19 :1-4
