I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy
I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
yes! the zion convention ended yesterday, leaving a vision in my heart - to press on to Zion! this time round, it has been different for me comparing to the last 2 i went. i guess it boils down to the attitude i went, and of coz, the mercies of God towards my life. looking back these few months, i realised that God has been preparing me for this conference. i not only attended with head knowledge but a heart and mind of wanting to know the truths so well, and for myself. to let God write His laws upon my heart.
i do not know how to articulate the things that i felt, but i truely left with a apprehension of the vison of Zion and going on to perfection, going from the Outer Courts to the Holy of holies. it is dangerous to stay in the Outer Courts in the Last Days coz simply, there's no covering in the Outer Court. but most importantly, i want to be at the place whr i can see God face to face, not just going to heaven, knowing what the Lord Jesus Christ had done for me. He would want us to be like Him as well!
God has not sent His only Son just to give us salvation, but to fulfill what He wanted in the very beginning of time - He wants to dwell with us, walk among us and tabernacle with us! and so, we have to be changed in our very own lives, thru beholding His glory, into His likeness and walking a life that is pleasing before Him!
there is so much, so much to say which i find it simply indescribable.. and i dunno y... i dunno how to say... thats rather irritating actuali.. i wld reali want to share my joy with all of u! :)
i am encouraged and im pressing in! i want to find my name written in the register of Mt Zion, and that im a citizen in that heavenly country! "And of Zion it will be said, ' This one and that one were born in hee; And the Most High Himself will establish her.' The LORD will record, when He registers the peoples:' This one was born here.'" Ps 87:5, 6
