Oh how I love tonight's worship...
The best part is when everything is messing up, seriously, everything that I could or could not think of, thousands of unexpected were jumping in my way, and when I was losing all my control, I clearly knew that God is IN CONTROL. Every time I declared to God that "I'm worshiping you no matter what," there's peace that I've never had flowing in me. How AMAZING! It might be a little bit awkward to say it this way, but I really love how it all works out, so messily-beautiful - what a word... sounds like what I am in God's eyes. And.. it might not have been so beautiful without all the messes!
We worship because what we are given is greater that what we can give... Worship is saying the 'thank you' that refused to be silenced. - Max Lucado

To Walk in THREE
When I was 17, I asked God for a life partner. As I was walking and praying along the riverside, I saw two parallel roads, my partner and I on each, and God in between. He is holding each of our hands, connecting the two. On that night, I decided that I would only go for the one that He has prepared for me, and nobody else. The ONE that would hold my Daddy's hand in the way I do.
Throughout the years, some stretched out their hands to me but I was unable to give them mine. I don't know what the world thinks about this. There're definitely values that could never win me over. Some told me, "You never know if he's the one until you try." This could be right to some, but I never 'try' because I understand how that hurts. People are not apparels, it costs much more than just money to 'try' the wrong thing. How do I know when something is not right? I don't know. I simply knew it. I somehow think God has put it in my heart.

And some said, "I would marry a non-Christian as long as he 'respects' my god and allows me to go to church." I could not remember God saying anything about all these "as long as..." but I remember Him saying, "If you, then, though you are evil, know how to to give good gifts to your children, how much more will you Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask Him!" -Matthew 7:11
Praise the Lord! Why would people have ever gone for the second-best when God has prepared something even better? Values of the world are distorted but the blessings from God over marriage have never been changed. It's never been easy to stay pure and wait in the Lord, but I'm glad that I've at least chosen to.
