Jeremiah 16: 19a
" Lord, you are my strength and fortress, my refuge in the day of troubles!"
In times when I'm weak, You are there to strengthen me,
and I wonder why I did not noticed Your presence?
In times when I'm fighting against my own will, You are there to fight with me
and how could I ever to miss that?
In times when I'm overloaded with my circumstances, You are there to comfort me
and why am I no remember our secret place?
I know You always will, but why am I keep on forgetting that.

Usual Night. Unusual Things
it's has been a while since my last blog. To be frank, I seriously think that I'm losing the fire to keep writing.
This year has been a real challenge to me. Second year of Uni is surely not a vacation to me. assignments after assignments, presentation after presentation. Oh man when can I get over all these! some people said ' maturity comes by how well you handle responsibility', well I guess I still have a long way to go.
it is another usual night for me, still awake at 2 a.m.. but something unusual about tonight, instead of doing my assignment, i was spending my mid night in my secret place.
I love spending time with God in the middle of the night. probably one of the quiet moment in my day, but i'm most awake during that hour. many things has caught me up during the day, assignment, emails, movies, youtube and PS2, maybe i should consider fasting them this week for Easter.
I was reading Jeremiah 15 today, the Lord replied Jeremiah's complaint of his ministry and his circumstances;
This is how the Lord responds:
“If you return to me, I will restore you
so you can continue to serve me.
If you speak good words rather than worthless ones,
you will be my spokesman.
You must influence them;
do not let them influence you!
God is amazing. It speaks right into my heart. sometimes it only takes you less than 5 mins to discover what God trying to speak to you. God promise that if we return to Him, He will 'rest' in us + 'store' up blessing for us. what's more can you ask if you have the creator of heaven and earth promise to come and restore you if you make your way back to him.
"What can i do, but praise You,
what can i do, but give my heart to You,
You broke into my darkness and give me the hope
my soul rest well in you, our secret place,
where is my journey begin.
