Life Lessons Learnt #4

Don't break. Stretch.

This one I am still learning. 

Life Lessons Learnt #3

Hunger that leads to intimacy with God will attract favour from Heaven, and the courage to ask for a great calling will be responded to with an even greater measure in His time.

Perhaps the most important question for myself is this: What am I inspiring with my life?

Life Lessons Learnt #2

I am the master of my emotions, and neither circumstances, people nor a bad haircut should be given any authority to dictate that whatsoever.

I am the master of my emotions, and I decide that inner joy wins every time.

The gift from suffering is a voice that will be heard when it still chooses to praise God.

This Musical Journey

You wanna know what my hands down absolute favourite encouragement/compliment about my musical journey thus far is?

...

That the presence of God filled a whole room when the song began to play. :)

I am so grateful to have been chosen to be a part of this. Blessed far beyond my expectations. What an honour.

Eyes on Jesus: The Lyrics

Eyes on Jesus

It's a dark night
And I'm scared
I hear Your voice calling out to me
With the storm around
And the raging sea
You invite me on the waters
I refuse to live with the 'what if's'
And I hear You say to me

[Chorus]
Test the waters
Step out the boat
With just some faith
You might find you float
No need to fear
Just you and your Maker
Silence the winds and stand up tall
Indulge in the miraculous
Keep your eyes locked on Jesus

In a moment
Of insanity
I ask You to call me to come
Those in the boat
They jeer at me
But on my mind is to be with You
I refuse to live with the 'if only's'
And I hear You say to me

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Walk on water
Step out to the tossing waves
For a second just be brave
And find yourself on solid ground

[Chorus]

Well Taken Care Of

It's been a crazy year, crazy, but the absolute best yet. This is my favourite time of the year as God tends to reveal a lot more things to me towards the end of a chapter.

Every year during this time, I wonder, how much more wonder and beauty can You show me after all the amazement You have blessed me with already? What does MORE mean exactly? And yet, every year I look back, and have never, not once, been disappointed by the generosity of my King. :)

Still though, I have a feeling that next year will be a really challenging one. Challenging, but it's gonna be even better than this one.

Why? Because the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in me, so come hell or high water, I can be sure that I'll be okay. :) I take heart in knowing that what doesn't kill me will only make me stronger and grow me further.

I find so much strength from that one sentence alone and the truth that it bears. :)

Hope: The Lyrics

Hope

Don't hide in the darkness anymore
Don't stay with your sadness alone
You can trust me
I've been there before
Come try out the light
It's better than the night
There is warmth, there is joy
And know

[Chorus]
There is hope
In the name of Jesus
He heals the brokenhearted
And He binds up their wounds
There is life
When you call upon Him
He'll run to your side
And wrap you in an embrace
You'll find what you need
In Jesus

Don't live on your pain every day
Don't put on a mask to pretend it's okay
You can trust me
I've been there before
Come try out His fire
It will fill your desires
There is peace, there is wholeness
And know

[Chorus]
