my fourth song.. the story
Hi!! so i guess i'll be posting the ten most ridiculous things ive done so far in my life some other time. so sorry!! Yeah so i just finished my fourth song.. well its version one.. don' think i'll be changing it much though.
Well... yesterday night i was feeling frustrated and angry for like.. i dunno.. i just felt upset and impatient.. with God.. with my family.. with my friends..i guess it was cos i was kinda afraid and unwilling to trust in God.. haiz..
Had a talk with my dad in his room.. i asked him "Hey dad, have u ever been afraid to ask God for something for fear that he might say 'no' or that 'i have better plans for you'? i mean like.. u noe.. unwilling to trust Him if He did not answer the way you wanted Him too?" he thought for a moment... and i just waited (he was lying down). Then he turned his head to my direction and said "Well... follwing God's direction and answer will definitely be the easier choice. The mst difficult path u can ever take is the one not assigned by God or the one u purposely choose not to follow and do otherwise." then he followed up with "Relationship prob. right? caos u can't possibly be thinking of a job or studies.." i just quietly got up and left the room then. I just didn't want to answer him.. but yet he still seemed to noe everything about me though i didnt say it out.. guess thats why he's my dad..
So i just washed up and went to struggle with God after that... i reached for my bible on my table from my bed to try to find some bible verse that would speak to me.. i accidentaly dropped it (whoops) and it fell open to Numbers 14 about the people rebelling against god in the desert and God was speaking out his punishment and reprimands like " How long will these people treat me with contempt? How long will they refuse to belive in me despite of all the miraculous signs I have performed?"v11- and He went on to speak of the destruction he would bring about BUT!!
Moses reminded the Lord that He was the one that had rescued the ppl. in the first place and that God was ' slow to anger, abounding in love and forgiving sin and rebellion.' Yet the Lord was.. still God man..
On my next flip i flipped to Isaiah 40-41 and started reading both chapters. It was totally about the splendour of God and what he did, set the stars in the sky, created the heavens.. the earth etc. etc.
Isaiah 40: 27-31
28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary, his understanding is unsearchable. 29 He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. 30 Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; 31 but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 41: 10 and 13
10 fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.
13 For I, the LORD your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, "Fear not, I will help you."
well.. i guess peace just overcame me.. and i just started singing Isaiah 28-31 in a tune and soon it became a chorus.. adding in Isaiah 41 and soon i had a verse and a pre-chorus written out.. and the bridge i did this morn.. finished around 2+ am..
so here goes... its called.. Hope In You
Hope In You

Verse:
You are God and i am just a mere man
You are God and i am nothing without Your strength
What are my ways? Compared to Your plans?
You are God and i surrender all i am
Pre-Chorus:
And Yes Lord i know
Yes God i've heard
There is no other like You
Yes Lord i know
Yes i have heard
You are the Ever-lasting King
Chorus:
And I will run and not grow weary
I will walk and not feel faint
I will soar on wings like eagles
For my hope is in You, my hope is in You
The Lord of my life
And I'll not fear for You are with me
You who hold me by my hand
And I'll stand upon Your promise
For my hope is in You, my hope is in You
God of my heart my life
Bridge:
You are my hope, my Hope
