pray upon many stars

"God is in everything, even in a kiss"- female lead in "Count of Monte Cristo"

dont get me wrong, Im not kissing anyone!
its just that, ever since I heard this quote.. Ive been intrigued. (thanks to mei mei who decided to turn on the TV at 1am)
God really is in EVERYTHING. in the smallest things, in the big things, everywhere! in our lives, all the time. and isnt that amazing? Cause we can call upon Him anytime, and he's there. He knows ALL, even better than we know ourselves, or of any situation. Most importantly, God loves us so much He wants to give us the best.

How marvellous it is, when He knows our hearts desires and is ready to grant them to us, when we place Him First. when we honour His name and delight in His commandments. of course then, His desires become our desires too, cause you're tt close.

the days are getting better and better, cause im finally learning to live as if He were living with me. like, you imagine Him being your other unseen flatmate. being in everything. more than that, he's LIVING in my heart... alive and burning...
there has been no greater joy than dwelling in his presence, trusting in His ways, and seeing Him answer my prayers. one by one..
and going out to serve him.

suddenly, even the smallest things seem so beautiful. the laughter on the kids face-getting up on a sat morning to teach them some action songs isnt a chore anymore. supermarket shopping alone is therapeutic..talking to strangers on the streets and knowing that their lives will be changed forever.. studying at home alone.. cooking for friends.drawing blood from patients and failing the first 3 times *bleahz* sleeping, waking. singing, everything.
its not lonely at all, its beautiful.
its not quiet at all, its a song of joy that resounds..24hours round the clock.

Hope. Hope.
it taught me to love more deeply and truly,
it changed me.

I am glad that you are experiencing God so intimately. This is the same thing that has happened to me when I was in my third year in Australia. I understand and it is hard to express the feeling. Everything that I do is so smooth, guided by the Spirit and blessed by Him.
