Verse 1
Saviour of the undeserving
You have beckoned me with love
You designed all heaven's glory
Yet you came, restored my worth
Pre-Chorus
This is love - spoken through Your brokenness
This is grace - crowning me with righteousness
Verse 2
Majesty stripped of all honour
Man of sorrows on that tree
The God who fashioned nature's wonders
Yet you stooped to rescue me
Chorus
You are the God who loves
You are the God who gives
Salvation, favour, victory as I stand and see
You are the God I love
You are the God I give
All honour, glory, adoration for eternity

Soloman's wisdom at its peak
Proverbs 19 (NLT)
8 To acquire wisdom is to love oneself; people who cherish understanding will prosper.
14 Fathers can give their sons an inheritance of houses and wealth, but only the Lord can give an understanding wife.
21 You can make many plans, but the Lord's purpose will prevail.
22 Loyalty makes a person attractive. It is better to be poor than dishonest.
23 Fear of the Lord leads to life, bringing security and protection from harm.

Chill out :D
Its good to take time out and juz chill :)
The whole world is mugging like crazy, but I shall learn to rest in Him :)
JustAcia seems like an ideal place - good food + free flow drinks & ice cream.
Thank you for your time :)
A 3 hour seminar is definitely challening for me :P
Sharing Jesus is always such a joy! :D
Truly we dont need to know too much.
Faith is simply seeing Jesus at the Cross.
And knowing what He died to give us today.
Victory over sin.
The righteousness of God.
Healing.
Prosperity.
Wisdom.
Favour.
Juz to name a few tat I know :)
It is often misunderstood that grace advocates laziness or sloppiness.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Let's look at what Paul says:
'But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them - yet not I but the grace of God that was with me.' (1 Cor 15:10)
Notice he worked harder under God's grace.
Something that I couldnt reli understand in the past.
Now I begin to see why it can even be true in the first place.
When u truly understand Grace, it'll simply cause you to fall in love with Jesus over and over again :)))
Let us not look to ourselves but unto the author and finisher of our faith.
He started a good work in us and He, not us, will be the one who completes it.
Simply love the following devo:
Behold The Glory Of Jesus In You
2 Cor 3:18
'But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.'
When you look in a mirror, what do you see? Of course, you see yourself. But God does not want you to see yourself in the natural. You may be sick, weak, broke and depressed, yet God wants you to see yourself the way He sees you - healed, strong, rich and whole because Christ is in you. (Col 1:27)
God wants you to behold as in a mirror the glory of His Son who is in you by His Spirit. As you do this, His Word says that you are being transformed from glory to glory - from poor to rich, sick to healed, loser to winner!
The world may say to you, "It can't be that easy. You can't be transformed just by beholding the glory of Jesus. No, you must do something about you. If you don't put in effort, nothing will happen. If you don't start making changes, nothing will change."
But the world will never understand that as you are beholding the glory of the Lord, who is the successful one in you, you are being transformed from a failure to a success. And this is not accomplished by any effort of yours to get ahead in life, but by the Spirit of the Lord! (Zec 4:6)
As you behold the glory of the Lord who is the healthy one in your sick body, you are transformed from sickness to health. And this is not accomplished by any effort of yours to keep fit and eat well, but by the Spirit of the Lord!
My friend, what can be easier than beholding the beauty of the Son? So stop focusing on yourself and your efforts. Look away from these things and begin to behold the glory of Jesus who is in you right now, and you will begin to behold the miracles that you need!

God's love
Its good to let His love wash over me once again :)
When the love of God touches you, u're simply awed.
Amazed.
Stunned.
All understatements.
He takes care of the smallest details in my life.
No matter how insignificant they may seem to others.
Today I realised once again how small I am.
How insignificant and minute.
And yet, the Creator of the Universe came down for me.
Jesus was literally the most down-to-earth person I ever knew.
He was far above every power, might and dominion.
And yet He came down to Earth.
In His eyes we are smaller than even an atom.
Yet He came.
Its one thing to give from a distance.
But He came.
Personally.
Close enough to touch.
And boy when He comes, everything changes!!
And I mean everything!!! :P
He became the perfect substitute.
Took away my condemnation.
Lifted me up.
To be completely righteous and accepted before God.
Oh how rich I am in Christ!!
How blessed!!
Once again I was reminded that everything came from Him.
I juz receive it with open arms :)
Freely.
God gives according to the richness of His grace.
Something that we cant even begin to fathom.
Thank you Jesus :)
