the journey

now that you had put the idea into my mind, i pray that you can help me to develop the idea further. and i pray that you give me the strength to sit down and organize all my thoughts for the event.

the journey.
-about a NORMAL AVERAGE christian life. someone who doesnt really have any outstanding thing about him or herself. someone who is constantly struggling, trying, to keep up with the rest. trying to be like the others, in order to receive the similar blessings that are given to the people around the person.
- constantly failing even though he or she keeps on trying and trying.
- the ups and downs. the "rahrahness" and the "pit bottoms".
- finally understanding.. that it should be more personal. that it is seriously between self and God.
- perhaps the intention was good. to be someone as talented as others, so as to serve God. but the ways to doing that are wrong.
- you cant really follow what others do because God wants you to be who you are. and to really feel you taking up the ownership, the responsibility of your call, your personalities and abilities to serve him.

yes, so this is what i have so far. with the songs "i will never be the same" and "mercy comes running" as some of the songs i want to use. i think i have the gist of the storyline but perhaps, i dont really know where to put them in. Lord, please send songs to me. the songs that you want, so that your message can be send through them and speak to the people.

so the aim of the concert?
i think.. it should be..
1. spreading of the gospel for the non believers
2. christians coming together to enjoy and renew. since as humans, we constantly need renewal again and again. reminders as well.

Lord, speak to all of us.

and let young eager committed hearts volunteer their time to help out too..

since we're doing it outside, i think.. probably, the capacity we should be looking at is 250seats? if people make the effort to bring their friends along.

help me, lord.

james4:13-17
boasting about tomorrow
now listen, you who say "today or tomorrow, we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. what is your life" you are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. instead, you ought to say "if it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that.." as it is, you boast and brag. all such boasting is evil..

okay. big warning sign to be careful of planning ahead without praying to God.
i supposed it is just like what dennis said with the "spiritual leaders praying before deciding what to do.." yeaaah. Lord, teach me to live things all up to you.

i also pray for passion in your words. that ill be ever eager and hungry to want to know you more.

and i need to live one day at a time.. and one thing at a time.

teach me that oh Lord. make me conscience of it.
