{ Unprecedentedly & Perfectly Faithful.. }
don't know where to begin, but just would like to declare of His faithfulness that is so unprecedented. truly He is not just faithful, but He is also perfect at it in many ways that even us believers have doubted again and again. and the most Grace thing, is that nothing has came out from the works of a human hand but His.
after worshiping to how great is our God at church, He truly brought that song to the next level, and it started while it was sung at Naomi's cremation. that was the time He united the whole family after many prolong years of being in two places.
to finally come back to what we thought was a gift (and still is), yet "He knew better." -- just like what dad tearfully and faithfully declared before the white wooden box of on the way to the fire.
i will never forget how we all worshiped as an entire familee in front of her lifeless body that was hidden in that little space of a coffin which mum and us had to arrange a day before. to really be able to even sing a tune towards His throne despite the circumstances that we cannot escape, goes to show that we still serve a faithful God.
and like what mike proclaimed "God is still good, and as for me and my wife, we will serve the Lord." this was uttered in a state where fel was still hospitalized and saved by His hand after a heavy blood loss, and while ever longing for a daughter which he had to let God now celebrate her resurrection in heaven.
shared this with mum how it has been more than two years, and look what He has brought the entire familee to? blessing us with a beautiful, healthy and joyful grand-daughter, daughter and niece to us all. and with Gid (aka Gideon) coming in three months just loudly speaks of His heart and ways that are far above our thoughts and plans.
a colleague asked me what worship meant to me, and i would say it all starts with the heart. not of ours, but of the Father's. it is very personal, and an intimate time we are graced with His presence and love over and over again -- so heart captivating and soul refreshing.
"You search much deeper within, through the way things appear,
You're looking into my heart.."
