I don't think I think enough.

it's a beautiful, rainy evening


I especially love these lines from this song:
A thousand times I've failed
Still Your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
I'm caught in Your grace
--
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself
In bringing You praise

I love this song way too much. It's simply a beautiful reminder of His mercy, grace, and love. I need to (continuously) learn the art of losing myself for Him, for His glory.

In the same manner, Galatians 5:16-17 struck me during the message this morning. I have come across these verses many times before, but it just hit me because I have been contemplating about fulfilling the desires of my flesh lately. (Haha, chos!) It's funny now because I really am such an idiot at times, wishing to do this and that when I know it isn't right. Apparently, I am not allowed to do whatever I want. Haha. YES, GOD, I'M LISTENING. Help me live by Your word. I have said this countless of times years ago, but it still rings true: The hardest thing in life is to really live a Christian life in its truest sense. It is a daily struggle as I continue to sin and make bad decisions. But thank God for His mercy and grace and unfailing love. :)

I think I have a knack for being hurt and broken. Because in such events, I am brought closer to God and have better understanding of His word. BRING IT ON, WORLD! :)
