Even When It Hurts(Praise Song) - Hillsong United

Psalm 69: 29-32

"But I am poor and sorrowful; Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high. I will praise the name of God with a song, And will magnify Him with thanksgiving. This also shall please the LORD better than ox and bull, Which has horns and hooves. The humble shall see this and be glad; And you who seek God, your hearts shall live"

Amen.

This song felt just near my heart tonight. Reflecting back all things that I've been through, I always realized that without God, I won't be here. Without Him, I won't get through it and I am eternally grateful. Taya Smith said, it is easier to praise God when everything was alright, like you are on the top of the  mountain, but when the circumstances is vice versa it was a sacrifice to praise God. But that's our prayer actually. No matter what your situation is right now, praise God. Even when it hurts. 

Take this fainted heart
Take these tainted hands
Wash me in Your love
Come like grace again

Even when my strength is lost
I'll praise You
Even when I have no song
I'll praise You
Even when it's hard to find the words
Louder then I'll sing Your praise

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Take this mountain weight
Take these ocean tears
Hold me through the trial
Come like hope again

Even when the fight seems lost
I'll praise You
Even when it hurts like hell
I'll praise You
Even when it makes no sense to sing
Louder then I'll sing Your praise

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

And my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the morning has come

Lord my heart burns only for You
You are all You are all I want
And my soul waits only for You
And I will sing till the miracle comes

I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise
I will only sing Your praise

Even when the morning comes
I'll praise You
Even when the fight is won
I'll praise You
Even when my time on earth is done
Louder then I'll sing your praise

A thought

A thought. Just a random title since I don't know what I should put on it. I could not sleep, soooo I decided to view my long lost contact blog but I end up updating it. It's good actually. I've finished my internship and now waiting for the convo's day which is in the end of November. *Lamaaaaaaa lagi* So here I am, staying at home like a bos. I loveee being at home actually. Who doesn't kan? Being surrounded by my family members, blissfull, since I don't even remember when is the last time I've spent time with them. I thanked you Lord for this opportunity.

The overall result is out, my current CGPA; I don't know whether I should be happy or sad or what. But one thing that I'm sure enough is I am grateful. Enough saying. At this point, I should already started the mission to find a job but you know me. Master of procrastination! Shot me people. =.= ' It's been 3 weeks since I've done my internship. Almost 1 month and I don't even realize it. The first week, I'm not doing anything. For the whole week. The second week, I've started to join back the ministry at my hometown church SIB Tudangan, and at the end of the week, I went to Labuan back for a good cause of course, later I'll blog about it. Then the third week, I've continued the preparation for the ministry along with my church members and still on going up until now. This month, quite pack for the ministry in our church because every unit has it owns activity and this includes the children ministry, youth ministry and so on.

What is this ministry actually?  What's next? When everything don't go right?

To be continue.....

6-8/9/2013

This is my first time to join a mission like this and one word to describe all of this, BLESSED.

1. 2 trips from Labuan, morning and night trip since some of them still working during last Friday. 3 cars in the morning and night trip also the same. I'm in the night trip. Since I am staying in KK, they came to pick me up almost 12.00am on that day.

2. Safely arrived at Malangkap Homestay almost 3.00am. We're staying there for 3 days and 2 nights. Nice place with a river just next to the homestay. Puas kami mintolop! Too bad I forgot to take photos of the homestay and river. Hmm.

3. The next day, after briefing on what we gonna do that day, breakfast and so on we went to Maktab Teologi Sabah (MTS) Malangkap. To visit the school, teachers and students over there and the most important thing is to give away the donation. Most of the student are still young, age range from 16 and above. I am so blessed to see their passion towards the ministry. Running into what they've been called for in their life.

4. Then, straight from there, we went to church, SIB Malangkap Tiong for the sound check because we'll be doing the praise and worship there at night. We are rushing doing the sound check and rehearsal because we want to mandi sungai. Ohyeahhh. haha. Excited to the max!

5. Done the ministry at night then went back to the homestay to take a rest. The next day, early morning we have a simple gathering, mandi sungai again, haha and then went to church SIB Malangkap Baru for the ministry. 

6. Packing, and then went back KK. For the rest of them went back Labuan. But before that, sempat singgah di Taginambur at one of our church member house for the famous mee sup kb. Sedappp.

Since I am updating my blog straight from the office, haha, I cannot cerita panjang2 here, the foods, the experience that I've gained and so on. Later I'll blog it. So here it is, some of the photos.

Took this from Wira Bandar Labuan FB.

Arrived at MTS Malangkap

Laissez Faire

The first week of internship. If you ask me the words to describe it, EXCITED, FUN, TIRED. Thats the words. New surroundings, peoples, environment and so on. But it was fun so far. Thanks God, within a week I'm able to get used to it. The only thing is, I still can't stand the tiredness of working in office hour. I've experienced it before during 3P at Umskal, but somehow I still in the process of adapting it. It is way too much different during my campus life. Hehe. Working from 8.00am to 5.30pm. Came back home, took a bath and ate my dinner, then go to sleep. For the whole week. Haha. Can you imagine that? 

Well, currently I've been doing my internship at Sri Komputer Sdn.Bhd. Non-government company, located at KK (so I can go back home every weekend, HAHA!), quite big company.  They put us in the software department and we are working on the database site. So far, we just doing the data entry process. And I'm wondering what we'll be doing on next week. 

I got soooo many delayed post, I wonder when I'm gonna post it out. Soon people, soon :)

By the way, Laissez-Faire means let it be. My group name when we are participating the case analysis presentation during  Business and IT Festival at Umskal where the first prize go to us and went back home with 2K. Sweet memories. Haha.

Hari nie malas mau speaking2..hohoho. Just want to share with your guys pengalaman jadi guru pengiring ni.hahaha!

Tadi petang baru pulang dari gereja SIB Pekan Ranau, jadi guru pengiring untuk budak2 Sunday's school. Kelmarin dgn hari ni ada KKR PKK Kawasan Ranau. 

Ingatkan senang ja mau handle ni budak2 sekalian, tapi sangatttttt susah d pula. Ditambah lagi nie budak2 yang "agak" hyperactive. Hmmmm... Lompat sana! Lari sini! Ketawa Sana! Bergaduh Sana! Macam2 la karenah dorang nie. Disuruh tidur, ketawa2 negi.. Baiklah2. Ada budak perempuan ni, comel...tapi awas!! Ganas!! Tampar kawan sendiri. Kami guru-guru Sunday's school berabis sdh ni mendiamkan dorang (haha..bm hancur!!), tapi hopod ie mikinongou, kalau org Dusun blng la. Sampai x suara sudah mau cakap nie..aigooooo. Bikin Girigitan tapi lucu juga..hahaha.

Anyway, I personally feels so blessed throughout this KKR. Penat tapi pengalaman itu sangat berharga :))

God bless all.
