M is for Monica. i'm a full time commerce student @ UWA. i turn one year older on the 14th Oct. i ♥ Jesus and not afraid to tell the world. i want to do YWAM and missions in the future. i love heights - planes, skyscrapers, mountains, cliffs, you name it. One day i hope to go bungee jumping and sky diving. i was born in China but have lived in Australia most of my life. Having said that, i'm still quite chinese lol. i like pink things, ribbons, bows, hearts, hello kitty, ruffles, lace, florals. i have a shoe fetish. i wouldn't call myself a shopaholic, although most of my friends would say otherwise. People often see me as strong, independent, ambitious. i thank God for the past 21 years that i've been alive. He has been ever faithful, gracious and loving.

>Your grace has found me just as i am, empty handed but alive in Your hands
>i called, You answered, i wanna be where You are
>i am a flower quickly fading, here today and gone tomorrow, a wave tossed in the ocean, vapour in the wind. still You hear me when i call out, Lord you catch me when i'm falling and you tell me who i am, i am Yours
>Broken hearts become brand new, that's what faith can do
>A thousand times i've failed, still Your mercy remains. And should i stumble again, still i'm caught in Your grace.
>My heart will sing, no other name, Jesus.
>If i had wings i would fly, coz all that i am, You are. If the world caved in around me, to You i'd still hold on.
>Your light will shine when all else fades
>i'm running to Your arms, i'm running to Your arms. The riches of Your love will always be enough.
>我们不是你和我
>活在第一次的见面里
>只要你一个眼神肯定,我的爱就有意义
>爱转角遇见了谁,是否有爱情的美。爱转角以后的街,能不能有我来陪。
>自由再被绑架之前,我决定过瘾的享受孤单。
>笑着面对每个阻碍,不轻易说离开
>我还记得你笑的像孩子一样
>离开我,你会不会好一点?
>幸福的开始就是放手去爱
>心碎了一地,捡不回从前的心跳
>我会学着放弃你,是因为我太爱你
>you're the only one whose got enough of me to break my heart
>you're the only one i've loved enough to not forget
>Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? i could really use a wish right now
>you're the best thing that's ever been mine
>In a storm, in my best dress, fearless.
>If you're my dream please come true

Trust
Sunday, August 22, 2010

Something Jon said that hit me last night:
Daniel 3:16-18
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and He will rescue us from your hand, O king. But even if He does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up."
This got me thinking: will i be able to speak with such confidence if i'm in a similar situation? Will i really be able to give my life up for Him? The emphasis is on the word able. They acknowledged that God is almighty and able to save them, but even if He chooses not to, they will not curse His name. They refused to worship the idols even if it cost them their lives! Such amazing confidence and trust they have in God! It's so easy to say i trust in God; but it's certainly not easy to TRUST with ALL your heart. To trust Him with your LIFE. If God is almighty, all powerful, all loving, smarter than us, why is it so hard to trust Him? He works for the good of those who love Him; His plans are to prosper us not to harm us, then why is it so hard to trust Him? i'm actually speaking alot to myself. i find that i trust, but i don't TRUST. So many times i try to take over the steering wheel from God and drive my life to where i want it to go. If i'm really serious about trusting God, then this time i guess i'm gonna have to make a conscious decision.

He shed His blood and died for US on that cross. We OWE our lives to Him, so naturally we should LIVE for Him right? Nothing we do can repay what He has done for us. Nothing we do can change the measure of His love for us.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
And when we fall hard, that's when we realize how much we need Him in our lives. Hopefully we don't fall all the way before we realize that. No matter what you're going through, He is right there with you.
