Changes-Excitment

Once again, how shld i start…that’s a good question. Just how do i start. How do i start with this post..How do i start getting down to start it.

It been a while…Been reading Wide Awake – Erwin Mcmanus, guess it was an apt book..

“Your dream are not simply a source of inspiration but the stewardship of your life.”

“To live a life that take your breathe away, you have to be willing to get winded.”

Changes.Changes. I screamed at it at work today, and i wonder if i do the same in future. Oh well. One step at a time Esther.

Yet changes in Life, The sense of Uncertainty keeps me dependent on the Only Dependable One…

Thank You Lord, for the willingness, the desire, the wanting and consciousness of knowing You are in this with me..In my Preparation. No Time is Wasted Time. No occurrence is of waste too.

A Quarter of the year has almost past.
I see the next few months to be Bright and Exciting, the plans He has for me, the Desire He worked in Me, The Every Step that He Takes with me still on His feet, He’s Leading still.

Preparation, still that the word for me this season, and it will NEVER end in this life but i am glad that Every Preparation i have is in His Finished Work.

Congrats to myself, i finally signed up for guitar lesson impromptu-ly..i am excited at how is going turn out!

Thank You Lord, there’s alot things that i dont know of…that Lord, in Every Opportunity, i enjoy You more than anything, i enjoy the Thrill of Exploring with You..and that includes not ALL areas of my life, and i mean ALL..and You know what i mean, Help Me Lord, not take my Feet off from Yours

Write On My Heart, Jesus. That i wont find that is a drag and forgotten and fail to recognize that is The Favor You have poured out. You Know i cannot Faced it without You.

Define For Me.

A couple of things has been running thru my head, it arent exactly many many things, but maybe just a couple can keep me thinking.

Decisions the are never ending…

The Good, The Bad, The Exciting, The Confusing, The Be Open.
Is never about what’s good or what’s bad, but What of LIFE, after all my life is carried by a flow of His Grace.

Righteousness cause you to make the decision of boldness.
It empowers you to dare to make decision. No matter what the outcome is, i am Still Right With You…

My dear friend told me, Maybe is time to let God Define what is GOOD, and not what I, Esther think/define/conclude what is good for me.

Despondency

Waiting for food at JB roadside stall…watching the people who stream by, a self thought came to mind: would life be simpler n easier if I were staying here..

Almost immediately another word flash across my mind: despondency.

Not realising the call/plans I’ve for you has causes such thoughts. Or prob gotton weary along the course of this life.

Out in the open field after a slow stroll and jog…am waiting for they who went the extra extra mile to finish off their race…

To be in the open where nothing seems to surround..something I always desire whenever I get a chance to… Bonus, What more now I get to blog..

I feel You as close as where my left cheek is…the closeness in my breathe as I took my every step.. Knowing You are running This Race with me, somehow gives me strength to destination.

Oh how i Always love the way You painted the horizon..it never fails to remind me that Life is bigger than myself, than what I desire to achieve before I see You face to face;

A quieten heart is what I walk away with on Every meeting as such with You .

Pathway.

Pretty Long Day it has been..And Finally had a chance to be alone at home..Always love the fact that You make me sit down to journal..

My four chords-Strumming.Music.Running Thoughts…unsure where to start, yet i enjoy such moment of Solitude.

It dawn upon me this morning, as i was walking out..
Realize i don’t need as much reliance of music to draw me into Solitude with You, as compare to last time. That to me is a Sign of Growth.

To put the interest of others before me and what’s best for them at their level and Not me using myself as a benchmark on how much they can overcome challenges or my “likings” which i assume is good for them. That to me is a Sign of Growth too..

Growth, i know and am assured that it has been happening…might be slow but surely there is, despite the fact that other tell me the opposite….

Opinions of others, the fear of being judged by even the closest of keen…am seeing that All has been crucified with Jesus on the cross. Me, is constant reminder that He Paid for it, My Redeemer He Paid for it, went a long way, just to pay for me.

I would wanna reciprocate by acknowledging and taking on His thoughts…Oneness.
Pathway of Life

Pathway of Life

Was pondering about the way my Life is today..
Realized it is really Grace Filled and Covered by His goodness. Cause every single mistake i make, Ultimately Turn Out well and it didnt matter. No matter how big the matter seem at that junction of my life, Time will just make it pass.

That kinda set me very free and not afraid to make mistake, and i know i need not be so hard on myself… =)

Time – You

Time passes so quickly that I don’t even at times have time for myself or You.

Time, thou it passes so quickly I still give thanks to You even in the midst of my daily doings and actions.

You don’t need to wait for me to have time or set aside time just to sit down to be with You, You were just here right with me in my every breathe, every moment, every aspect of life doings.


Oh how, You make Yourself So Available for my taking and consumption that it requires no effort from me except the consciousness of it; that You are Here.

A Defining Moment..

Jan 17 2010, marked a defining moment in this year of restful increase.

A moment where once again seem like our journey has parallel each other..a moment where both of us just held hands n pray with the anointing oil…it aren’t like any other time where only one of us is facing it..the robbing of our “Rest” was so real.

Yet we choose to believe for the very fact the word was released, the more the world would try steal from us.

However, as we held hands in prayer..I see us taking on a new journey and that something great and good is coming along the way..His presence was so thick between us, like a tangible covenant He cut in each of our life at that moment.

For whatever has been thrown and rob…still am thankful that He had went ahead of us..preparing our way and crown the year with suchhh Goodness…that it will turn out to be such a testimony as we look back…A privilege that cause us to take The Word seriously..to be able to identify with it and put it to test.

To be Radical in the things concerning Him…the weightiness of His presence in our lives as we walk thru Every Moments and i meant EVERY

An eternal weight of Glory..
Was what was put on our hearts…

And I love the fact He is right there with us thru it all..

Musing: Daybreak Scene.

The iced vanilla latte has keep me awake thru out the night..Thankfully am on my way home from work now.. As I was in the midst of meeting just now, whispered a “Thank You Lord, for giving me and restoring unto me a healthy body!” that I can labor in Rest and not worry.

This was something I literally walk thru last year. To the point of realization that literally “Every breath comes from You, that Life itself has never seen so Fragile n Precious as before.” Now and then I still think back of the journey previously and muse about what is my current challenges/circumstances as compare to that.

When I start being thankful of every breath I take, that is when Life became as a prize.
Not something i could earn or achieve but simply cause Daddy breathe and give me this very breath, this very temple!

daybrek

Got reminded of the morning daybreak scene when I was up at Mt Volcano..saw how the village wakes as the horizon changes..waking to a day that to some maybe yet another day of going thru the motion, to some maybe another day filled with hope and expectation they hoping to come thru..All not knowing what is right ahead of them.

To me, it was a moment of seeing thru Daddy’s Eye ViewA moment that i saw the village light flickering so tiny..Yet This Creator God that i know, tells me of how much He loves them and came for them..that His heart goes out for them..

“What more you Esther..Nothing is too small, impossible is impossible. Thou small as you think you are, i came just for you and wanna dwell with and in you.”

The Minuteness of Esther YET He made her His Everything…

Stillness.Awed.Sweetness birth forth as she stood there in worship.

Every Morning is a Fresh New Day of Mercies and of Hope, cause He goes before me preparing the day for me!
And i can wake up to the burst of His Light that penetrates thru the cloud-packed surprises and adventures..Thou at times it seems cloudy, thou i dunno whats installed, but i do know (practically/personally/discerning the ways) the heart of the installer!

And It can only be Good!

I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I’ll say it again and again
I love you more

Just a face in the city
Just a tear on a crowded street
But you are one in a million
And you belong to Me

And I want you to know
That I’m not letting go
Even when you come undone

Life as a Prize…

“For I will surely deliver you, and you shall not fall by the sword; but your life shall be as a prize to you, because you have put your trust in Me” – Jeremiah 39:18.

Your Life shall be a prize to you, BECAUSE you have lean it on me..That Life shall be a prize to me.

What beats, having Life itself as a prize?

If Life is a Prize to me, shouldnt i rejoice over it everyday?
And To have Life as a Prize -> (BECAUSE) i have lean myself upon You Lord.

How do i trust You, if i know not who You are to me Lord?
Redeemer, i haven known you in such a way, till recently “Redeemer” clicks with whats in my heart…
Lord, teach me Your Names, Your Ways, Your Call, Your Precepts.

As You have put it in my heart, on that quiet sunny morning with You on Proverbs 3. Yet this month round what Jumps is : “To lean not on my own understanding…But in Knowing You.”

To lean not on my own understanding..
But in Knowing You = Practically,Personally, Discerning and recognizing Your Character on How You exercise Loving Kindness, Judgment, Righteousness in All of my ways(with a loyal heart, willing mind, with the intents of my thots).

You will direct my path Lord, and as You direct, i’ll recognize:
Your ways, Your style, Your moves Lord, and have no doubt cause is You and i know is You Lord..

Teach me Lord and Spur my heart to see…that really just as You have wrote on my heart:
“There noting that matters more then just fixing and leaning my entire being on knowing you, that Your desire and Your Love is towards me.”

First on the go..

Can’t believe I haven been blogging on such a long while..blogging on the go it has been something I always wanna do.. And yes u am doing this now!

Somehow thots just seem to flow on the go… The year coming to an end.. Is time to do a thanksgiving entry..having penned down in my own journal has make tis seems needless.

Looking back on my entries I realize I haven been spending time sharing here much as compared.. Yet Lord You have been ever faithful providing me with heart entries..

Life.Work.Ministry.Family.Walk. Where should I start from: destination on the go, I am reaching…

Jesus help me understand..

Certainty…

But Do not be wise in your own eyes, thinking that all I have shown you is from you; It is I, Who has given you..

Continue Worshiping and Walking with me…
Counsel I’ve given you.
Wisdom I’ve Bestow to you.
Favor I’ve Imparted to you.
Be Confident in who i have make you to be…

You are not normal Esther…You are Set Apart Esther.”

The affirmation that i needed…

In the Sun…

Its been a while since i last bask in the sun..
guess the last time i did was during my DiveTrip.

Body longs for a Sunbath today..and so i gave her one despite the laziness in my flesh.

It felt good, to have
The Sun basking it’s light on me and the light shining on the familiar pages..
I come to realize i love having Natural light shining on my bible as i read the word..It makes the scriptures stands out, somehow it looks extremely good on ‘the kinda paper bible uses’.

As i lay there,asking the Lord to shift the clouds away..i began to ponder, how: When in “resting/laying flat/doing noting” mode, i actually ask the Lord to bring out the sun and enjoy the glory of it’s heat and radiance. Wheres as i see plp laboring in the sun, surly they must have wish that the sun will stop emitting such heat/warmth.

Is only when in such “resting mode” that i can withstand the Heat of the day, and actually Enjoy it.

To have the sun basking on my back together with the Sun of Righteousness reflecting in my face and on the inside of Me..it was moment with LOVE.

In All My Ways…

Proverbs 3:6-8
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct[make smooth or straight] your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Worship the LORD and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your flesh,[navel/intestine]
And strength[refreshment] to your bones.

Have i been acknowledging You in ALL my ways?
Literally ALL my ways?
What will bring forth, Health to my Body and Strength to my bones?
Worship The Lord and not be wise in my own eyes!

Once again,
In that moment of Worship and Beholding You Lord,
there an Invitation and Impartation of Your Being into My Being..

enjoyment.confession.

I have a confession to make…actually not a, just 3 for today!

I am
…addicted to buying comforter sheets set..
…loves to discover.write.journal.reflect.
…likes to architect stuff

Comforter..
i love my queen size bed, no doubt to me, i got to have one of the best sheets ard. Of a certain quality, certain threadcount..this are necessity to me, Cant have it too thin, cant have it too thick, thicker is better than thin..

Somehow there are days when u just wanna laze in bed, or i know there just some issues that brought to light which i dont wanna deal or dun wanna face, i’uld sleep my heart away. I wuld hide under this thick comforter,which gives me a sense of security, underneath it, is where i know i just a girl, i can shed the tears knowing it will cover and wrap me round with its warmth and put me to sleep and in there i am Safe..

Journaling..
Naturally, i am not a writer, i hate writing essays when i was younger, i cant seems to use the right words…but now I amazed at how my thots flows when i just journal, how at times when i dunno how to start, He promptings overtake and overwhelm as i type, showing me things i never thot/imagine, using words/discovering blogpost-bands-artist i didnt even know exists, or even let a side of me which i never knew exist came up, How i can try to be poetic when is actually not me. =)

To be able to put in words the pictures He paint….
To describe abt This Love that enrapture me…..
birth forth Humility, as i mediated on This loving kindness that preserve.

This is a gift, which invite and brings me on a journey to explore the glory that reflected withine me with the One who fashion it. Beautiful and always exciting..Always smt Fresh wuld comes along the way.


Architecting

Does it explain why i do what i do? I love it, i love building stuff that of use, that ease the load of humanity, that innovates that has a cutting edge..
Cant help it, both my dads are carpenters, and i know it flows in my genes..And i thot it stops there, all abt guyish stuff. But recently, i realize i enjoy craftings, smt i HAS never been able to do when i was younger..

The other day i was crafting out a birthday card, i almost cut it the other way round and make a mistake…Yet in the midst of it,

i hear myKing say: “Arent you glad I never make mistake, that i really mold and craft each part of you..and you are my pride, my master piece.”
Of course i giggled, shaking my head in unbelief at how He intrude my mistake and yet i like it “Lord even in this you can make such comment and make me laugh..”

Things are just different when I enjoyed it with my Lord..
Indeed in His presence, there is FULLNESS of JOY.

I realize in all these that i do, there seem to be just attributes that reflects who my Elohim is.
My comforter, In Him i found myself, My Creator.

Creativity / Linguistic flow is all a natural byproduct with Him, i dun need to be good at it, i dun even need to know how to trigger it to operate, All i needed was, to say YES to my heart desire, to just do what i seemingly enjoy, and seeing myKing self-invite into my every scene…and best of all, He doesnt just wait for a grand event to turn up.


I see You in every scene,
I bet You are thinking about me
I have such a short memory
So You’ll keep reminding me of You
– [Scenes/Charlie Hall]

Organs.Worship.Regulator.Water.

Whenever i am emotionally not feeling well, i know where i will run to. Because there only one channel, one way, one outlet where i can run to. That’s You. Alone with you. In times of pouring out my heart, in times of pouring out my tears, in times of just simple worship with You..

The immediate natural thot of the result of a worship session, is my soulz is satisfied, my heart is RESTED..and that i have communion with my Lord, in that moment of communion, all emotional burdens fade away, as i redirect all that is within me to He who is larger that all that surrounds..

Have i forgotten that my GOD is a very practical God?
Have i tend to spiritualize things just a little too much, that thinking only the spiritual side is impacted and nothing is done(or at least i wasnt consciousness of) the physical unseen that is starting to take root, thinking He only cures and has the ability to restore my emotional wellbeing?

When it says “All that is withine me Praise the Lord.”Psalm 103:1. All that is withne me – that is my mind, my soulz, my emotions, and yeah it include intestine,kidney, arms, stomach,windpipe!
ALL that is in me(literally) every organ, every functioning part!

The primary reason we are fearfully wonderfully created is to worship our God, our organs and every part that is Within us, is molded for one sole reason, “So that this temple of the Lord, will always give Him the Glory and Praise.”

When we praise and worship the Lord, not only our spirit responds, but our organs too responds to Praise it’s creator..when we see this organs comes in contact with worship, it jumps at the sound of His voice at the Touch of His hand and a Touch from the Lord, will make that dead organ come ALIVE..

The same power that heals the emotional troubled heart in that worship session, too is the same power that healed the blind and resurrect the dead.

DaddyGod really takes care of His temple..He also got it in place in us a well that contains the river of living waters…Where the rivers of living water flows, there is healing! As i was penning down my thots, my Lord just whispered

“And Your tongue is the Regulator for this river of living water, small as it is, it is vital.”

And when we activate the regulator (praying in tongues) we allow the water to churn and flow, rather than jam and stale it, and when your organs float in this “living water” how can it not have life and be feeble!?

Lord, i love it when You comes to my level to impart that Faith and that vision(cartoon image of organs dancing before HIM), that one thing i know will help reminds me of when i come before you, not only am i lying down all my emotional baggage but also i lay down the organs that is affecting my temple. I lay it before you and see every part of me, jump together worshipping before you, as i activated that regulator to allow that river to run and flow..

Worship, will never be the same again….
And i am really sure You delight in us dancing before You with all that is within us, freely and not ashamed to lay every part within us that need a miraculous touch from You.
