{ Matters of The Heart.. Pt. 1 }


"and with the fear of hurt,
give is all to G and soak in His solid rock security that holds you together.
nothing can take you down.
nothing can break you.
cos you have Christ that lives IN YOU.

when you think of the guy or whoever,
turn your thoughts upon Him.
how much time you give to that person,
is how much more time we should spend pondering on J and His great love for us.
security is built solely upon that.

His unshakable unchaging love.
He did not nearly die,
He did not nearly got beaten,
He did not nearly get hurt.
He took it all eh,
and He took some more.

He was forsake but by His own Dad,
all just so we can find the true security in Him.
uchanging, amazing..
so take courage in the promptings and leadings that He gives you,
because He only gives the very best.."

- C.

**love note on the side: oh bless your constant heart of gold, and heart for God, one of my dearest GC's; my hearts strings has been struck yet again. He is going to use this heart of yours for the world to see and experience His healing and love available for all. love you.


when you are heartfully encouraged to the very core of what your heart mattered, you are just so overwhelmed with each word beating against the very emotions of what your fragile heart carries. fragile not meaning weak, but delicate and valuable, and not given to the any person who comes along with good intentions instead of a God one.

for these kind of moments, i hold dearly and at the same time, am blanketed by His love that secures and covers what fears that i'd for a very very long time; all of which resulted in numerous occasions of nearly happens as i was afraid to dive even further, thinking that was the best solution. to come to think about it, it was another way of prideful and also efforts of protecting one-self instead of letting Him do it.


as human as we are, we tend to want the need to feel wanted or attracted to; just a mere satisfaction to what the flesh is lack of where all the while, it was God who was the One who chased us first. it was God who was the One who loves us just the way we are, and even more when we fail, and it was God who has been wanting our attention every single of our waking moments.

it is time to get refocused and renewed by His ways and thoughts instead of always going what the soul wants, and oblivious to the spirit. to know that we already have the security and hence, fears of the unknown will no longer exist. going to dive right back to the heart of the Father, and just stay there and wait on Him completely. that is the only place where i should be right now, and will park there, till He moves me.

{ Conviction: We work upon The Lord & not men. }


we work upon the Lord, and not unto men.

hence why, we do everything with the spirit of excellence and intergrity, giving Him the very best that He has created us to perform. for because we love Him much, we are empowered by that love and cannot help but desire to do all things much. for He sees the core of our heart that no men sees, and rewards us accordingly.

we are not here to find favor with men, we are here to experience favor with God. and because we find that in Him, we find it in all things pertaining to our lives. for His eye always sees the goodness in us, how not being so unfailingly loved, do we want to please our heavenly Father?

not by the works of our every hand, but through the works of Christ nail piereced hands, which held every single one of our destiny and calling, which now no one can steal or destroy -- as whatever He holds, He protects. these hands kept on giving, and it will never stop for He does not witholds all good things from His children.


Lord, You alone deserve our very best  which does not even mount up to how much You do for us, and does not even affect Your constant marvellous thoughts about us. there is nothing that we can do or say to make You love us even less. Your love is one without conditions, and one that still supplies through our imperfections.

there is truly none like Your love.

{ In Your name, we overcome! Pt. 1 }


"God has now revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ,
a plan to fulfill His own good pleasure.


And this is the plan:
At the right time He will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—
everything in heaven and on earth."

Ephesians 1:9-10 (NLT)


oh God, indeed You are more than able! You are more than graceful! You are more than merciful! there is nothing far greater and powerful than you! there is nothing too difficult for You! for in the right time, under Your never changing will, You shall reveal all the good plans You have for each and everyone of us. out of the mystery, it shall become solutions and answers to prayers and desires that were once dead. there is never a plan B for You. how can we not put our soverign trust on You? our faith is steadfast in Your constant and never failing love for us. You God, You reign over everything on heaven and on earth, and that same empowerment causes us to do just the same.

in Your name, we overcome!

seeking tools.



{ Seeking His face.. Pt. 3 }


"to know Your heart, is to truly know all else. because Your heart holds the key to everything that exist. open the eyes of my heart, i want to experience what it is truly like, to see You. take me deeper.. there is no place i would rather be."

{ Seeking His face.. Pt. 2 }


"i want to see You, face to face. not my eyes and heart fixed on Your hands that can move mountains, but Your face that transforms us eternally, into the likeness and glory of You. this is where the light is, this is home."

{ Seeking His face.. Pt. 1 }


"We should be seeking God for who He is,
not what He can do for us."

{ Mornings of Thanksgiving, Prayers & Joy! }

every morning breakie menu

give thanks for His grace that allowed us to wake up another day, to experience and be yet amazed by it over again.

"Most of us get up every day hoping somebody else will make us happy rather than looking for ways we can make someone else happy. Jesus teaches our joy is found in giving our life away." 

- J.Meyer

{ Lost & found, in God.. }


"A woman's heart, should be so lost in God,
that a man needs to seek Him, in order to find her."

- Unknown

{ The battle is His, & The battle has been won! }


a God lesson learnt:

the battle, truly belongs, to, The Lord!
it is He who fights for us, causes His strength to work within us, and brings victory to us.


we need not need to play on the defense, nor justify ourselves in times of struggle, pain or being misunderstood, He always uplifts the head of the righteous, and reveals all things that were hidden.


for He has defeated the grave, we can now stand firm and tall in the finish work of Christ - He has put death, sin, diseases, curses and poverty to it's rightful place. all we do now, is to suit up in His armor which He thickens in every testing and mess we go through.



book worthy? the caption is a good reminder for how much power the word of God holds, that which always guards our faith and beliefs for us, and not of our own (and much lack of).

"be strong in the Lord.." - ephesians 6:10-18


and the very best position to be in when the going gets more than rough, is the position of absolute, perfect, shalom and undisturbed stillness. for there and then, He is found.
