It's been. A year that really stood out for me. It passed faster than I could grasp, that I would allow myself to comprehend and it could only me pulled along in it's train ride. It's been a great year. Sure, it wasn't great and sunshine always. In fact I can't remember when I've felt so busy, so flustered but yet happy, really enjoying it all at the same time. The friends, the new experiences, the new loves, new responsibilities all came to play. But what truly made it great for me was that it was with God. Last year was one where I remember, I reflect how much I grew in God, the year which leads me to who I'm going to be for God. The year that made the foundation be firm. Who changed who I was. And that, made it the best of all , because I stayed firm in God, I found out who I am in God all over again, and who I can be in God. Who I'm going to be. And that, made it great.I really don't know why I went to Benavon's old blog to search for her 2007 post, to read her thoughts as a 'new' Sec 2. I just felt a sudden compulsion to read it. Just as I felt it last year when God spoke to me about being a God who is able, and that He can do for me what He did for Benavon. This bit that Benn wrote in 2007 January speaks my heart about 2006, which is precisely why I copied it. I'm not the best with words. I can see how apt Benn's description was of the past year. And it's much better than mine.
The reason why I felt reading what Benn wrote might help is because, the time God started growing her was the around same as the time God grew me (as in, we were the same age.) And well since I was spurred on by what she wrote on her blog in P6 when I read it last year, what I read today might just help.
2007.
I'm excited about it. For once I'm looking forward to 2007. It's going to be a really great year. One with God, one where not just me, but friends, many good friends will rise up for God, in our schools, in church, in leadership, where we rise up with courage. It's going to be great not because everything will be easy sailing, in fact I think it may be one with the most challenging times, where you just want to give everything all up. But I'm convinced, that with God we'll find that strength, to gather up and move on, though alone, though stranded, we'll go on. And one year from this moment, we'll look back and see the harvest , and see the rewards, past the struggles.
I'm going to rise up for God and that in itself is scary, overwhleming but yet so exciting with so much anticipation. It's amazing. Cause that's what my God's love is. Unstoppable, powerful.
Ohman, I love this. I don't have to say anything, it fits for me!
