kneeling at the altar feels SO good i tell you(:
recommiting yourself. just taking that step of faith in Him, with Him.
yeah worship was good as usual(: and pastor adrian asked ppl to go to the altar and kneel. when he asked, my heart was beating like reallyreally fast. and i was like whoa..
chick was the first to go(: i admire her sureness, like she didnt even need to consider, to think. she just went up front and knelt. like it was such an obvious choice for her(:
i went too, taking the fast heart rate as a sign(:
and i cant even really rmb why pastor adrian did that altar call. but i rmb the song we were singing!(:
change my heart oh God
make it ever true
change my heart oh God
may i be like you
you are the potter,
i am the clay
hold me and make me
this is what i pray
i dont have a particular liking for this song or whatever. actyally i dont really like it at all. but! today this song just seemed really appropriate(:
at the altar i just remember me asking God to make me more like Him. WWJD(: and to forgive me of all the hatred for people.
i mean the people i dont like didnt even offend me in any way. if Lord Jesus could forgive all the people who tortured and killed Him, why cant i love those who havent even done anything to me?
Lord Jesus had all the reasons to take revenge. those ppl tortured and mocked Him like crazy. but He didnt take revenge still. so why shld i fault others because of the minor things that irritate me?
yeah then we had message(: by the guy from riverlife church. yep it was abt trusting God. and having faith in Him(: suitable for the exam season.
forgot alot of it alrd, but! i rmb the part abt always talking to God first before talking to anyone else. like talking abt your problems or asking for help. always God before men.
and at the end of the message, we all went to the altar and he prayed for us. to only want to please God in EVERYTHING we do. yeah EVERYTHING. not to glorify our name, not to show off, not to make others look bad. but to please Him. for His glory and honour ALONE(:
makes sense huh? but easier said than done. so we really just have to make that effort to let God work in our lives!
