I just finished watching this video. What a awakening video. It realises me how easy we can sway away and be drawn from God by the earthly things. My heart is sadden cause what I see is like what is happening to me!! But only through Jesus that it is possible to go through this temptations, and the best part that just wanna make me cry is that after leaving God so far behind yet, He still took all the suffering and protects us from all the evil things. It's so hard to explain, just watch it..
Divine Romance
This is the song called divine romance that my previous post written based on. Listen to the lyrics, just feel the awesome-ness of God's love. Enjoy..

Can we still praise and worship Him even if He takes away EVERYTHING?
As I was just sitting down and thinking about everything that was happening around me a couple of days back, the statement or rather question 'If He takes away everything, can I still praise Him for it?'. As I sat there just thinking bout what God can actually, and rightfully, take away from me cause ultimately everything comes from Him, my heart was just grieved, deeply. I was just asking myself, what if He takes away my family from me? Or my friend? Recently, there was a friend of mine, in just a night, his dad died of a heart attack. The more I listened bout what happened that night, I couldn't bear to imagine if that would happen to me someday. They seem so tough going through it. But me, who was just a listener, cries inside and in deep sadness every time I think about it. It crushes my heart when I think that what if that happens to my love ones. In Job, God made a deal with satan. Satan said that if God allows satan to take away Job's family, and wealth, he will curse God. So the deal was made yet Job, in moments like this, he praised God for what had happen. God was silent for a long time from him, but still Job in faith knowing that God is there when through it all. Then it came to my mind, that all this happen always has a reason, and it's always for the better. What I see here is that we human can really misplace God in our lives sometimes that God has to really crushed our hearts down so we can grasp how Glorious He is and how much we need Him in our lives. I guess that was what God wants me to realise. God's love is so great but we as humans sway away so easily in thoughts and our hearts are just given away so easily to other thing rather to the One who had paid the price for it and who deserves it. I write this is to remind myself, and YOU! Never let go of the truth and love that surpasses all things. I pray that our hearts will be longing for more and more of Him every minute of our life. To live is Christ, to die is gain.

Overwhelmed with God's love
Well since the title of this blog is about being overwhelmed with God's love, I am so exited to post a blog bout it. I've been wanting to post a blog in friendster but it's not working currently so you can just imagine how much is about to spill. I am gonna start this whole blog with a post about God's love. I wanna write this post base on a song called divine romance. Divine Romance is a song base on the love of God so overwhelming that you just want to dance and sing for Him.
The fullness of , Your grace is here with me
The richness of , Your beauty’s all I see
The brightness of, Your glory has arrived
In Your presence God, I'm completely satisfied
For You I sing I dance
Rejoice in this divine romance
Lift my heart and my hands
To show my love, to show my love
A deep deep flood, An Ocean flows from You
Of deep deep love, Yeah it's filling up the room
Your innocent blood, Has washed my guilty life
In Your presence God , I'm completely satisfied .
Everytime I hear this song, I am just so deep deep in love, and the thought that God loves me even more than this just blows my mind and makes me wanna fall on my knees to worship Him. There's just no words that can explain how much my love is for God. Once you've felt it there's just a no turning back. 'In Your presence God, I am completely satusfied', 'For You I sing I dance, rejoice in this Divine Romance, Lift my heart and my hands to show my love', 'A deep deep flood flood, an ocean flows from You, of deep deep LOVE, It's feeling up the room'. Wow what few simple sentences that just makes me melt, and humble myself in the presence of the God of the UNIVERSE. Such a wonderful and amazing feeling sometimes when I actually stop to think that the GOD, GOD of every leaving creature loves me and that I am so deeply in love with Him. My prayer is that God may use me, use this blog, use whatever I have to just reach out to this world that is so 'dead' to feel His amazing love. Set my heart on fire that it just overcomes all earthly things. I have said this, and gonna say this again, that I feel this song has expressed one of the closest the Love I have for God. Also I want to make clear to everyone that I am not crazy about this song that I am promoting it or something but that I pray whoever listens to it feels what I feel, that is the powerful, amazing, beautiful love of God so much so that we of unclean and unworthy people, God sent His son to die for us which, we not even close, deserve it at all.
