Hallelujah

It's been quite some time.. just felt i should take 10 mins to enjoy God's presence.. and to unload to Him..

You know the dictionary defines Hallelujah as a song/shout of praise to God. It's like saying "Praise be to God!". Obviously God deserves to be praised right? For who He IS.. and what He has done.. and for what He has promised to do.

It's just that there are times (like in the Psalms).. when man.. mere created ones.. find it hard to see beyond the shroud of work/circumstances/stress/ambitions/fun/sin..

Why does a 3 year old have to be diagnosed with leukaemia only God knows.. but i'm so encouraged to see how everyone comes together to form a prayer chain. It's really saddening to see how the usually bouncy and curious boy has become so reduced.. and thin.. and tired.. But at least now we know he likes balloons =) You know.. our God can do immeasurably more than what we can imagine..

This incident really brings perspective to what i've been busy with.. FYP woes.. Job Search anxiousness.. it all really pales in comparison.. Made me think about how much impact i'm going to have.. if only surrendering to God's will comes as easily as falling back to my sinful nature (pride and self will)..

whatever the case.. thanks Felicia.. ur blog has encouraged me greatly.. =)

okok.. back to drawing network diagrams and doing bibliometric analysis on Service Industries Journal (from 1993 to 2009)..

Hallelujah Lord.. may You be the Lord of every part of my life..
