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...
it has been a glorious moment in the Lord for the past few days. The Lord has been good and His presence was with us for the last few days in the hostel. it really is the kindness and love of God that leads ppl to repentance. nobody can boast and glories in himself for all He has done! i was personally very encouraged for wat has happened. many has come into the Kingdom of God and many have heard the Good News! the people has been so open! Thanks be to God for His inexpressible grace! i have learnt many things too. of coz, all of us were so tired too but it is all worth it! in fact, i was so tired that i slept from 5pm to this afternoon, 12pm!!
frankly speaking, i am so glad i was part of the whole thing. especially putting hands to the field where i can never do it in church or in school. i am also so glad to c so many fellow labourers passonate to winning souls into the Kingdom of God. wat had happened was indeed more than wat i have expected! and the words that was given when we prayed all came to pass! the Lord has indeed been with us for those days. oh, the tangible presence of God!
personally, the Lord has revealed things in my life too. i noe that those are things that have always been present in my life. i was sad to noe that they r still there, but yet encouraged that at least they are revealed to my knowledge. i need to press on, and continue to press in! i definitely do not want to fall short of wat i was intended for. and i have to say that although these few days were good and God was present with us, i am not satisfied! somehow, there's a deep cry within me that wants to noe Him even more! not just His presence! i WANT TO KNOW MORE OF HIM!! there is indeed more than just seeing souls saved but also the knowing Him! thats after all wat we are created for. oh, that yearning in the heart that always continually calls out to Him!
