Gosh, super busy for cantata!
Need to return everyday morning to evening Monday to Saturday!
Okay, nearly.
COME AND SUPPORT!
I'll be a pig.
You'll see me in costume singing and being retarded.
It's worth your $4 (:
Went for adult service today.
Sermon about prayer.
Spoke to me about why sometimes my passion for God doesn't go anywhere; I haven't been living a very prayerful life. I pray, daily and all, but... Not very much, I guess.
And it struck me that this year my passion and hunger for God has been going down. I just noticed.
And during the sermon (I wasn't entirely listening but received other revelations!), I remembered my emails to the allstars; the second was about HUNGER for God.
It just struck me so hard that the reason why God is putting me through all this lack of hunger and passion through this season of so much testing is because it is how I will then be able to understand my SBs, to guide them along. I even remember catching myself thinking: if they don't have a hunger, I can't do anything. I was kind of... Saying it as though it was all their fault. I guess the amount of hunger we have for God depends on us, but sometimes it's possible to want to hunger, yet not hunger in reality.
And this is really my greatest takeaway thus far.
That beyond just trying to tell my SBs to do this and that, Spiritual Parenting is much more than that. And instead of 'making' my SBs observe very ritualistic activities (like calling them for TAWG), stirring up their hearts to want to know God more, love God more is really the essence of discipling someone in having a personal and living relationship with God.
Wow, amazing. Even in a dry season like this, God can show me something so powerful. Isn't God awesome!
I just feel that passion for God coming back.
Verse 1:
There must be more than this
oh breath of God come breath within
There must be more than this
Spirit of God we wait for you
Fill us anew we pray
Fill us anew we pray
Chorus:
Consuming Fire
Fan into flame
a passion for your name
Spirit of God
fall in this place
Lord have ur way
Lord have ur way
with us
Verse 2:
Come like a rushing wind
Fill us with power from on high
Now set the captives free
leave us abandoned to your praise
Lord let your glory fall
Lord let your glory fall
The same old songs speak and work in different ways in different situations.
Thank God
