Just some thought:

Are you truly worshipping God, or are you merely worshipping worship?
Worship indeed takes you to a higher level of "HIGH", but are you just worshipping for the sake of enjoying that "high" feeling you get?
Or does your heart sincerely wanna worship God becos of who He is?!

Brandon fired us (the YouthTCMers) a question: What are we doing here?
It really set me thinking.
Brandon is wise!
Are you in church/serving just becos you want/need to fill a void, or are you there becos you wanna truly worship God and revere Him for who He is?!

I've seen one case of this friend I have, who went to church and becos he couldn't "fill the void" he had, he left, and mind you, he was serving too!
I guess it's really sad when you don't see things working out in life and stuff.

I've been through tough times too, and I daresay it's just the beginning of it all, the devil will try all ways to tear us down and tell us stuff that was untrue.
But ultimately you should know where you stand in God's kingdom! :)
Okay I was digressing.

Back to the point. I think we christians should be careful, extremely careful, that we do not worship worship!
I've been to a church once, and I really didn't feel the HS moving, yet the people were jumping around and stuff.
And the band was just like a performance.
Don't get me wrong, the HS might have been there, I could have not been THAT sensitive to Him. And I do believe the HS was there becos soon later, there were many people's lives who were saved.
But I just didn't feel right during the praise and worship. I felt like I was at a performance, and I really couldn't worship God.

Please do not put a stumbling block in your brother's path, becos you are sinning when you do something that will cause someone to be unable to worship God.
I, as a worship leader, have to be mindful of that too.
And in that way, I have to ensure that my relationship with God was upright and personal before I can do any leading.
Becos ultimately, you cannot bring people into a place where you've never been before!
And in any way you try to bluff your way through, the truth will be revealed sooner.

Are you just worshipping for the sake of enjoying that "high" feeling you get?
Or does your heart sincerely wanna worship God becos of who He is?!
I chose the latter, I hope you do too! :)

(I have so much more stuff to add, but my thoughts are all over the place, so this'll have to do.

I thank God becos I have alrdy completed all my elearning stuff, and I can fully concentrate on my revision!
Took me quite a long time due to my immense procrastinating.
I really need to stop being ______________!

Ahh, and till now, I haven't signed up for my BTT yet.
Look, I've alrdy written down three of my friend's driving stuff on my sidebar, and yet I am not taking any action on mine! :(
I really don't wanna wait that long till I drive.
Rah somebody guide me along please!

I need a break, a real long break.
This year's been pretty crazy, and I've learnt so much as well!
Relationships, schoolwork, trials and temptations, and not to mention being physically hurt by ______ as well.
My girlfriends have gotten attached (see Carmen, Clarene, Vanny etc etc), my churchies and I were talking about marriage just last night.
I do admit I feel abit weird, becos I was once in a relationship too!
But hey, right now, I just wanna serve God with my entire being, and I do trust that He will definitely provide the one, and that would be totally worth waiting for!
God never shortchanges His children! :)

I wish I could go for a holiday, perhaps a week long vacation at one of my fave beach destinations!
Then I'll just lie on the sand and bask in the sun, soak up the rays and salt from the sea.
Wrap a dress around me and dine at the roadside stalls along the beach.
Berjaya is a good idea! Make it Berjaya Redang.
Anybody wanna go w me?! :X

I was just watching a documentary on Animal Planet just now.
It was on Dinosaur Fossils, and actually, it was on a mummified dino.
It's very cool, and it leaves me in awe how powerful technology is now.
To re-enact what may have happened 67million years ago, and even tell you how the dinos really "walked" by calculations and the mass.

I had a nice time relaxing at home just now in front of the teevee.
Praise Him! :)
