2005

this year is a year of a new start.
and thankfully by the Grace of God i survived through the last year. Thought of just typing down my reflections.

Reflections

2004 has been a trying year in my life. I went through lots of stuff in the last year. and i mean really LOTS. I remembered starting the year, tired and weary, sad and discouraged. Honestly, as i begin 2004, i didnt know whether i will just scrape through this year. As times went on, with every month, things begin to improve. Blessings start coming in. Friendships started. I begin to get to know a few great folks. Though there are lots of times that i was depressed, down and just pissed at God, yet i still manage to see His faithfulness, love and grace in my life. It just was woderful really, to see God moving in my life in a way that i never saw before. Imagine just walkin in front of people and seeing them slain under God's power without even praying or laying hands on them. I still stand here amazed at God's power working in my life. And I learned how to treasure people around me, the very people i took for granted.

BUT

its 2005! (Yay!) Its a fresh new year! A fresh start! A whole new beginning!
I remembered on the 31st Dec 2004, i told one of my closest friends. "It is not enough to know that God loves you and died for you. It simply is not enough. But rather, we have to experience his love firsthand." Just hours later, Pastor preached on the same thing. Prophetic? Maybe.

But one thing i exult all of my blog readers to do. Re-evaluate your life, both spiritual and even physical life) and see what God can do in and through you this year.

Happy New Year to all of you.
