= The Rainbow Connection =

Heard HMV playing this song while on my way to PC Show on friday. Her voice is really soothing and I remembered listening to it while i was younger. I walked past city link to go PC Show again and i heard the song again =) Decided to buy the CD on sunday while walking through citylink to go to the MRT.

Currently it is listed as my "Favourite song" on my IPOD and jukebox at work ...

Yep, Yep .. u are absolute right .... for those who know me - it will be playing on my IPOD's default mode till the next nice song captures my heart ... That's me =)

= Pastoral Lesson =

While listening to it on my way home and i suddenly thought - The Rainbow was a promise of God's covenant to Noah.

And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth." So God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth." Gen 9:12 - 17

And at that moment, I really am assured by God's promises and plan for my life. His promise to me ...

(For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jer 29:11)

(Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psa 37:4 )

My life and future is in the palm of his hands so i need to continue to trust him for the things that i am praying for =) So no matter how the wait may seem. When God says I promise, he definitely will fulfill it :)

Yep =) He definitely will ... I will trust him and be patient =)

Praying the Heart of God

Been wanting to blog this for a while. But didn't have the time to do so ... Finally !!!

Have you been in that special moment when God reveals his heart to you?

And as he reveals his heart to you - you begin to experience the grieve, the joy and every other emotions that just flows into your heart .

The feelings and emotions though overwhelming and heavy yet an unexplainable joy bubbles forth in your heart. You begin seeing how God view this one thing or person. The great love he has and why he chose to die on the cross for this one person.

Prayer no longer seems just to be an utterance of words, requests and the things I want. But it becomes a divine connection and communication with your ABBA Father. The perspective no longer seems skin deep and your view of things and people just expands beyond any mortal's understanding.

The freshness that the refreshment brings just cause you to want more and more of this experience. It drives you forward wanting to have these special encounters with God more and helps you desire him more and more.

=)
