I need to be next to you..

This is the song I want to sing to my God. Hear me, Lord!

You number my wanderings;
Put my tears into Your bottle;
Are they not in Your book?

-PSALM 56:8

Are they not?
Have You not seen? Have You not heard?
How long will You let my heart take the pain?
How long do You think my body can endure?

But You created this body.
You have seen how I have become frail.
You know all my troubles.
You know every single detail about me.

My soul is not hidden from You.
My spirit is a gift from You.
My life I owe to You
And You hold my future in Your hands.

You trust me.
But how can I not trust myself?
With a nurse's eye, I see damnation coming.
But with the eyes of faith I see hope.

Renew my strength, O God;
All day long I wait for You.
I wait for the God of my salvation;
I wait patiently, LORD.

Save me from my troubles.
Do You still believe I can endure this much?
Do You see me living yet another day?
I know I can trust You. I always will.

For Your sake I will live today,
I will live a life for You.
And for Your sake
I surrender these pain and sorrow.

I haven't read much books lately. *sigh* I miss reading novels, Robert Ludlum novels. Or Mario Puzo novels. John Grisham novels will do too.

The latest book I've read, which turned out to be a new favourite book, was Extravagant Worship by Darlene Zschech. I found it when I was staying in Antipolo.

Extravagant Worship is a wonderful book. I highly recommend it to every people who are serving in a ministry, especially the Music Ministry. But I don't exclude those who were and even those who wish to join a ministry. Worship is not just about singing and music. Worship is a lifestyle. But I can't imagine worship without music. ^_~

By the way, I am not a member of our church's Music Ministry. But I sometimes watch them practice and prepare stuffs.. =)

I may have not read a lot or at least one novel, but that doesn't mean I am not reading anything at all. I still have the Basic Instrution Before Leaving Earth. Heehee.. I really love this Book.

My favourite stories are those when Israel fights her enemies and win battles in ways you won't even dare imagine. So unusual. There may be things I could hardly understand, but I somehow learn. I get to know more about the One who is in control of everything. It's really cool.

I still have novels unread. But I will read them, for sure. Just not yet.
