"How can I not be moved by all Your goodness, all Your blessings, by all that You've done in my life. How can I turn my back on You when I've experienced You so much this year." Giving up things has never been easy. But it's worth it for the One who have it all up for you.
Sudden relief
Got stuck in the tube, on a Monday morning of what seems like a never ending week from the previous weeks of 9-12ams in london. It really goes against every instinct you have to stand still and not do anything. In those moments, His words came - through the list of memory verses we have been reminding ourselves with.
John 16:23 These things I have spoken to you, that in me You may have peace. in this world, you will face tribulations,but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.
Never experience such a strong sense of peace before. it's was a reassurance from Daddy God. The Word of God definitely is alive and living. Just 4 days before God kept re-emphasizing the same theme through:
1) Mikaylie singing in the living room just before bible study: "thank you Lord, I just wanna thank you Lord." Definitely felt His presence so tangible all the way up from my room.
2) bible study : Phil 4 Rejoicing in God always! Despite what the circumstance may be. Submitting to God in prayer. That peace that transcends all understanding.
3) the amazing time we had during Friday fellowship. It was extra special, having everyone in the room shout out something to be thankful for, sharing and encouraging one another in prayer and seeing people spend intimate moments with God in their own way.
4) Songs on Sunday : Waiting on Him, You are the peace that guards my heart.
5) consciously choosing not to worry! Matthew 26. And God providing the solution when I released the control I've to Him. O God! You are great! In times like this, heart is bursting to sing out to You!

WANG LEE HOM [ FOREVER LOVE] I love you not only because of your beauty I love you more and more, your every eye contact touches my heart because you let me see forever and then I understand myself
Please treasure the days that are about to come When you’re loving me, I know it’s painful and unfair I know you really love me, and this is not an easy decision… I can feel your breath next to my ears as magical as breeze passing by You softly comfort me when I’m feeling down So everyday I want to cherish and study your smile. Oh, how natural this is
Forever love
The only thoughts in my mind is that I will spend my lifetime loving you From now on, you’ll be the very reason of my happiness Love is the most beautiful and longest journey There will be rain and mud preventing us from traveling forth But I can feel you in my arms as warm as sunlight You magically melt down my sorrow and it is unbelievable and this is the reason why I love you
