Journey with Him

Updates updates.....

I guess nobody really looks at my blog laaarrr..but i would still update because I am actively storing memories. :) I want to remember the good times and bad times..especially recording God's work and faithfulness in my life! :)

1) Time with my brother

I always enjoyed my time with my bro! That night, when we wanted to pray, as usual, we asked each other for prayer requests...

Dawn: Pray for Jon and myself's relationship..that we will communicate well ok?

Matthias: Why must pray for communication? You guys quarrel?

Dawn: Hm...pray loorrr...every couple quarrel now and then.. but communication is so important so must pray.

Matthias: You can don't quarrel mah....

Dawn: How?

Matthias: Just agree with the person..

Dawn: What do you mean?

Matthias: Like that time I went w my best friend and his mum to Universal Studio..they wanted to sit on the rollar coaster but I don't want..but i don't want to quarrel so i just go. Just agree with them.

Dawn: *Impressed* Hm....ok, lets pray :)

Well, of course, we know in life we can't always agree on everything and not have any boundaries. However, to a certain extent, he is right. In many situations, the relationship is more important than our own opinions. And, our opinions are not necessary right.

2) Jon & Dawn

This year has been a unique season for both of us..especially myself. :) I find that the Lord is showing more and more of myself in the relationship, changing me to be who He desires me to be..using this platform :) Months ago, it was about submission..then about respect..words and tone..then about agreement-disagreement etc. I really grew alot :)) And I thank God most of all is that we fix our eyes on God and pray w/o ceasing for this relationship. :) That made us grew closer as we journeyed together. We thank God for everything..even for the good & the challenges.

Holidays is over for Mr Wee!! Initially was still praying for God's grace for both of us as Jon is studying from Mon to Wed while me, thursday night. And, on Fridays nights, i would very much want to stay at home as my dad is home on friday nights. So, I was lamenting over the fact one of my prayer noons..but guess what..the Lord is so gracious! Jon does not need to study on some wednesdays, some mondays and some tuesdays. In fact, its pretty good that there is practically no strianght 3 days study-nights except in October! God is good! :)))) YAY!

3) My heart

Alot of things grieved my heart especially the 10 page spread on churches, happenings at work and also, the state of Christianity in Singapore etc....But, I only pray that my heart remains pure, true and sincere to the Lord. Also, been praying for the churches in Singapore...praying w Jon almost daily on different matters of Singapore. (Children, youth, government etc)

Share w you a song that tugs my heart....

"Surely children weren't made for the streets, Fathers were not made to leave

Surely this isn't how it should be, Let your kingdom come."

Surely Nations were not made for war, or the broken and due to be ignored

Surenly this couldn't be what You saw, Let Your kingdom come

Here in my heart.

And I will live to carry your compassion, to love a world that's broken

To be your hands and feet

And I will give you the life that I have been given

And go beyond religion to see the world be changed

The power of your Name

Surely life wasn't made to regret

And the lost were not made to forget

Surely faith without action action is dead

Let your kingdom come

Lord break this heart

Bridge: Jesus Your Name

is a shelter for hurting

Your Name is a refuge the weak

Can take the undeserving

Jesus Your Name

Holds everything I need "

Amen Lord, Change my heart and not let it die.

Till then,
Dawn
