It just brought back pleasant memories of the past, doing the things I once did, and called to do. It just flowed, though the things shared were not easy... and it brought tears out of both. Yet strangely, there was a connection. Perhaps partly out of that relationship formed of old. But mostly, it was out of an understanding. To really understand and identify with what the other side is going through. To come to realise that this person next to you is actually a fellow sojourner in a season, not too different from your own, and what is being poured out from the heart, just blends.
And it's been so long since I last felt that. And the reminder that the path of moulding and hardy seasons that God brings along, is not travelled alone. That there can be deeply rooted heartfelt joy in the midst of trying times, looking forward and awaiting the fruit that comes out of this season of waiting, trying, and seeking.
All from a little rather random trigger of a remembrance during the week. The sermon by Pst Derrick, was rather apt, questioning and reminding. For anyone who would seek.
Let me not take Your presence for granted, nor lose sight of its wonder.

Woah, I've kinda lost sight of time, with weeks of school work mounting
on and on. Com is in such a mess, with loads of un-posted pics and stuff. And my room, is so cosily messy. Ok, maybe not that cosy yet, but definitely messy. =( Eagerly waiting for hols to clean it up and give it some revamp!
And I just realised my next sunday service worship session is coming up again real soon. With the latest humbling session just last week....... it's kinda daunting. But oh well, not my will but Yours be done yea.
And not to forget the joy in the process of it. =)
