How Could I Live Without You?

How could I live without You
How could I survive without Your love
Without Your touch
You're the one that heals me
cleanses my heart
and sets me free...

Because of Jesus, I am free. I am like a dove soaring in the skies. Praise the Holy and Anointed One because of His unfailing and everlasting love. He died for me to set me free. There ain't anymore barriers that will set me apart and lock me up in that cage anymore. Taste freedom in the air.

Now I come right before You
With my hands lifted up

And my heart humbly bowed
At the work of Your cross
As You hung there and died
You were paying the price
For my life, for my life...

One day, I saw this man flying a kite. God spoke to me through that man's actions. He was an expert in kite flying. He could make the kite glide smoothly through the air, make it swoop down very close to the surface of the ground and lift it up and make it soar to heights again. I was enjoying the movement of the kite as God spoke to me. I realised God was the man while I am the kite. The wind is the grace and strength He gives me. He is the controller of my life since I surrendered my life to Him. He guides me in the directions I should go. He makes me soar into the skies at times and make me swoop down to rock bottom, but His grace is always sufficient. He will not give me harder trials than I can handle. That implies from the man's action where he let the kite glide over the surface of the ground without letting it touch the earth. Great skills. Great grace from God too as His peace is always there to prevent my fall.

Suddenly, as the kite glides over the surface of the ground, it lost balance and hit the ground. Dead. Fallen. At that time, I saw two curious wild cats advancing menacingly towards the kite. They were in a stance ready to pounce on it. However, the man drew nearer to the kite to collect it. As he approaches nearer, the cats scurried away. That's God's protection. When You fall, He will come and save you from the enemies(cats, in this case) and pick up again. God is never failing. His loves trusts, hopes and protects. Great is Your everlasting love. Amen.

For Your love is higher than the heavens
Deeper than the sea
All I want is You in my life
No one else can satisfy my soul
Make me feel this way
Only You Lord, Only You

This song really touched my heart. Indeed, Oh God, my Merciful Lord, great is Thy Love, the Heavens declare. God can satisfy my soul and all the emptiness within me. In life, we always seek to be happy. Happiness is a choice, depression is an option. You can choose to be happy. We always try to make ourselves happy but we realise all this happiness is just temporary. It ain't everlasting joy. That's why we need a Saviour for our lives. He is the one who provides everlasting things. Things that are beyond our imagination. The choice is yours, to be happy or not but I would like to say the greatest reason to be happy: If you had known the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and had accepted Him into Your life, be happy! Because you are going to spend the rest of eternity rejoicing. Christ died for us while we were still sinners.(Romans 5:8) Rejoice in the Lord for your salvation that nothing will ever seperate you from Him ever again.

Dear Daddy in Heaven, I pray to You. Lavish Your love on me. Renew my mind with Your words and ways. Let me bear Your ways and words in my mind. Do not let me slip. Bless me the peace that surpasses all human understanding to guard my mind against lies of the devil. Bless me joy and that I would spend my everyday rejoicing and praising You. For Your grace is sufficient and You are my Shepherd, I shall not need anything. Every need of mine is fulfilled in You. Thank You, Oh God. How could I live without You? Without Your love, I wouldn't even exist in Your imagination. You created me to love me and I willingly accept this true and sincere love that no one else could provide. Only You, Lord. Only You. Arigato. In Jesus' Sweetest and Most Precious Name, bless Your prince, Oh sovereign King. Amen.

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want..." Psalms 23:1

"O LORD , hear my prayer, listen to my cry for mercy; in your faithfulness and righteousness come to my relief.
2 Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
3 The enemy pursues me, he crushes me to the ground; he makes me dwell in darkness like those long dead.
4 So my spirit grows faint within me; my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.
6 I spread out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Selah
7 Answer me quickly, O LORD ; my spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me or I will be like those who go down to the pit.
8 Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.
9 Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD , for I hide myself in you.
10 Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground. 11 For your name's sake, O LORD , preserve my life; in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble.
12 In your unfailing love, silence my enemies; destroy all my foes, for I am your servant." (Psalms 143)

Song stucked in my head:
I want to be a reflector
I want to shine with your glory
I want to let the whole world know that You're Living in me
I want to burn with your fire
Shine my light a little brighter
I want to let the whole world know that
(shouts)Jesus Lives in me ----(Reflector, Planet Shakers.)


P.S: There's a mirror in front of me. Before it, I stand. When people look into the mirror, I want them to see the likeness of Christ. Amen.
