Mi alma te canta

[joerg writes]

I've been 'away' for a while, back to share my thoughts.
Recently we been listening United, Casting Crowns, Karhryn Scott, and of course Delirious?

I was really touched by Delirious's My Soul Sings (Mi alma te canta), beautiful song- perhaps a cry from my heart from the dissatisfaction in life. Dissatisfaction at work with the lop-sided orientation towards academic excellence (people don't understand the cries of the teens do they?) and 'lifeless' colleagues getting endless job done. Well, the thesis been in a dusty shelf for a while- perhaps due to a self-gratifying excuse of a bad relationship/communication with my supervisor.

Well last Sunday's message was good, a reminder not to judge people and be very very forgiving (coz like our heavenly papa, God by His grace forgives you today, tommorrow and until the end of days, and He said in Romans 8:1,
There is therefore now no condemnation to them (us) which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.) For me the deeper message is still living in His Spirit, through Him that I (& all of us) become stronger to face many of the challenges in life.


With a little LJ arriving in 32 weeks, I've been pensive of doing a little more as a husband :) God is preparing us a gift,well I have to pick up the pace in many of my current missions so that in time to come I can be a responsible papa.
