The Way I was made

Hi everyone,

Do check out "I'm captured by Your Holy calling (2) " , reflection by a close friend.

This entry today, is testimony of God's wonder and that He is really alive and well, and though i may be sitting alone in a seminar room in one corner of SMU, He's really here beside me, in every breath i take, knowing what's on my mind, knowing the words i'm going to type in the very next second. How amazing is that!

Just as i was thinking about what to do with the half hour or so of my time before class, a good friend and mentor msn-ed me(PTL - Praise the Lord! for msn), about updating the rhinos' blog. And here i am. So sorry for the inconsistency. No.1's still "pushing Singapore" - in No.5's words; i.e. doing pushups in BMT in Tekong, No.5 is being called to cast his nets in another ministry, whilst the "to-do-list" piles on as the semester in schol progresses for the rest of us. This brings us back to the post on "The non-negotiables in life" that there is really no "other time" to serve God than now.

Do keep coming back, and do share with us your thoughts and reflections and life as well. I'm sure the good Lord is inspiring many out there, calling us all into a deeper and real relationship with Him.

Lately, i've been really inspired by this song, which i want to share.

The Way I was Made by Chris Tomlin

Caught in the half-light, I'm caught alone
Waking up to the sunrise and the radio
Feels like i'm tied up, what's holding me? Just praying today will be the day i go free

I want to live like there's no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one's around
I want to sing like nobody's listening
Before i lay my body now
I want to give like i have plenty
I want to love like i'm not afraid
I want to be the man i was meant to be
I want to be the way i was made

Made in Your likeness, made with Your hands
Made to discover who you are and who i am
All i've forgotten - help me to find
All that you've promised, let it be in my life

I want to live like there's no tomorrow
I want to dance like no one's around
I want to sing like nobody's listening
Before i lay my body now
I want to give like i have plenty
I want to love like i'm not afraid
I want to be the man i was meant to be
I want to be the way i was made

"Lord, take me deeper in love with You. Give me the grace to see and discover who i am, to not live in the dream of who i want to be, but set free to live the way i was made. You made it all, said "let there be" and there was all we can see. The sound of Your voice. The work of Your hands. You do all things well."
