Listening to music on my way to school

Hey!! just wanna tell you all a really good news!
Our not so established CJ prayer group has been established like after we join forces with like the other cj prayer groups!! cool right?! i think God really rocks!!
God works in amazing ways! when we need help, he provided us with help!
Today, i really had a great session!! like we had worship and somebody called da ye shared with us about the bible verses and his life testimony..it really helps me in my christian walk cause it really short of like confirms me what God is trying to say in my struggles that i shared with many and cried about...
I got lots to say....but i had to go for cca...=(


Anws, today i am going to talk to you all about what i experienced like in the morning!
As i woke up as usual, and walk to the busstop while listening to my christian songs like from my handphone as usual...the volume of the music is like the same throughout my walk from like my house to the busstop...


At first, the volume was just nice, not too loud, not too soft...
Then, as a walked from my house estate area to like the busy roads area, whereby buses and cars zoom by, the volume of the music seems lower..
And as i get to the busstop, the music is like so soft until i can barely hear anything!
I raise the volume up to the lvl whereby i can hear the lyrics, but if only i concentrate on the words...
However, as i kept on looking around, i couldn't really concentrate! words from the songs just flew pass my ears...i didn't even know the song ended...
Once i got up onto the bus, it was so much quieter..
As a closed my eyes to really concentrate on the lyrics, i


I realise that it really applies the same to our christian walk...
When we first become a christian, we have so much passion for God, we yearn for God's voice everyday! We can see him working in our lives and hear him speak in our minds!
Or even like during the holidays, when we have time for God, we read his word, we pray and stuff, we can actually have a conversation with God!


However, once things become busy, once the passion wears out...
God is forgotten!
We will slowly slowly hear from more of the world and follow the ways of the world than to really follow closely to God..of course, this includes reading his word...
We will forget God slowly, bit by bit until God's voice becomes so tiny and standing in such a small portion of your life up to the point that it may cease to even exist!
You cannot hear God talking to you and working in your life...
You get distracted, doing so many others things besides anything got to do with God..
Studying,
Watching tv,
Going out,
playing computer,
Basically anything that places God away from the position that he is worthy of in your life! when God is like forever trying to reach out to us!
We get so involved with the world that we forgot totally about God!


There is this song called "Never give up" (really nice!) that goes,
"Time after time, you've been left behind, like a sun we need starting to rain....Time after time, you've been forgotten, like a picture thats faded away...Time after time, you ran after me, while i was still running away..."
It shows that God is always running after us, but we tend to lose sight and forgot all about his amazing love for us and turn our backs against him...
I feel that we are always like that..and really don't deserve God's love at all! We are so so unworthy...but God still chose to love us!!


Anws, only when things starts to become rough and problems start to come, then we will rmb God and turn back to him...
We will then be willing to surrender it all to him because we realised that we cannot handle and we need his help...when this happens, it is when we will set aside time for him..and really sit down and pray and to read his word once again..only then, then we can hear his voice once more...


What i learnt from this is that we should really place God in the centre of our lives! Not because we can recieve blessings from him, not because he can help us, not because He solves our problems...etc..but it is because he is God!
The reason is very simple! He is God, and we are his creators! we are suppose to worship him and love him!
Somemore the God and King we are serving is a good king!
1 John chap 4:19 "We love Him, because He first loved us."
Are you willing to love Him for who He is and not upon what he can do and provide?

God loves you alot!
