When a girl..

When a GIRL is quiet ... millions of things are running in her mind.
When a GIRL isnot arguing ... she is thinking deeply.
When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions ... she is wondering how long you will be around.
When a GIRL answers ' I'm fine ' after a few seconds ... she is not at all fine.
When a GIRL stares at you sheis wondering why you are lying.
When a GIRL lays on your chest .. she is wishing foryou to be hers forever.
When a GIRL wants to see you everyday... she wants to bepampered.
When a GIRL says ' I love you ' .. she means it.
When a GIRL says ' I missyou ' .... no one in this world can miss you more than that.

Life only comes around once. Make sure u spend it with the right person ....Find a guy ..who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who ... kisses your forehead, Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.Who holds your hand in front of his friends, Who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you. Who turns to his friends and says, ' That's her!! '

Self-ish

S:
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should not look only to your own interest, but also to the interests of others..He humbled himseld and became obedient to death..and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord..For everyone looks out for his own ambitions, not those of Christ..but you know that Timothy has proved himself because as a son with His father, he has served with me in the work of the gospel. Phil2

O:
Jesus yielded to the Lord's will, even if it meant to the point of death. Through the suffering, Jesus saw the light of life, was satisfied, was called great as he poured out his life to the point of being crushed. Nothing of his life was done of selfish ambition, but everything done in humility, considering everyone else better than himself. He humbed himself right to the cross, that through his life and his life after death, at the name of Jesus, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.

A:
We live in such a fractued world, a world that worships the 'self'. This is the very attitude that Jesus warned us not to do, to seek to save one's own life. He has called us to live a total opposite life! Maybe that's why it seems so suffering because as a Christ follower, we go against the tide. Spirit vs flesh. In our world, we strive to excelt, most of the time for own glorification. Even if it were somewhere down the mission of wanting to help another, many a time i catch myself at the endpoint of the selfish pleasure. He calls us to do NOTHING out of selfish ambition. In a world that portrays greatness only once you've climed the top of the pyramid, Jesus took the totally opposite end of the spectrum, to serve from the very bottom. Could i come to a point in my everyday that i could walk in humility and not for the gaining of ANYTHING for my own cravings?

P:
A new day you give to God to learn to walk in Your will, with each breath i take, for the flesh to serve and not have mastery over the Spirit's prompting. I look to Jesus with humility. Not sure if i could go all the way but i do hope to day by day discern in my spirit, making choices out of the faith i have at that point. Along the way i'm inspired by You, my Creator. May i hope for what you hope for. May i love like You love. May my faith grow as i read Your Word, your purposes and promises that you have for this earth, for my life that others may grow to hear the voice of their Creator that they may call open you as Lord over their lives. Save us from ourselves i ask this in Your Name.

struggling

14We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[c] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22For in my inner being I delight in God's law; 23but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.

gift of life*

So here's a beautiful note i found in my inbox this morning..
On your birthday, it's no longer about me though, it's about you! And Sue, there's no doubt that all of us see many grand things for you but more importantly, I just want to affirm your faith as you take these steps outover and over again without asking for a reward from God – your faithfulnesswill have its way of showing in a way that only you will comprehend in thefuture. So what I pray for you is abundant faith continually put intopractice as you keep moving ahead because I know that you are meant toachieve great things.I also want to encourage you not to feel disheartened no matter what may come your way because there is a greater plan and purpose for your life. Sometimes its merely rhetoric but most of the time it is more than that – itis faith into action – proclaiming the words out to remind ourselves not to be caught up in our fleshly desires. Your selfless life is a testament to all that you walk a road of faith and you have been very good at notconfirming to the norm for the sake of the flesh. You have put yourself outthere and gone against the grain in so many ways simply because you believeso and are convicted and God sees that Sue. As for a boy, which we always talk about somehow, I pray that he bringswisdom and light into your already bright life – that he may partneralongside you and bring you fresh revelations and a new point of view thatyou have never seen. And may the two of you partner alongside God to dogreat things in this lifetime. I am convinced God has marked a life sospectacular for you that I am just waiting to see what more he can do foryou!I hope and pray that you will continue to be just who you are because youare a miracle not just in my life but so many others – my journey with God would not have been complete or as fulfilled as with you! =) I want to say so many things to you Sue, but words fail me (I KNOW RIGHT? UNBELIEVABLETHAT WORDS FAIL ME) but they do! They are all random thoughts in my head andwords can only convey so much! But I hope you feel that you are special andreally just an awesome person and if there is anything in Melbourne I cansay has been a true blessing that would be you and your family! Love you very much and I am holding so much hope together with you..

Freedom

I search for You God of strength
I bow to You in my brokenness
And no other King could have so humbly come
To save my soul and heal my heart
I have nothing more than all You offer me
There is nothing else that’s of worth to me
And I love You Lord
You rescued me
You are all that I want
You’re all that I need
I pray to You God of peace
I rest in You my cares released
I have nothing more than all You offer me
There is nothing else that’s of worth to me
And I love You Lord
You rescued me
You are all that I want
You’re all that I need
In Your freedom I will live
In Your freedom I will live
I offer devotion
