i'm syncing 800+ songs into poddy.
songs songs songs for the long long long rides to the ends of the earth.

it's one month into university life at the ends of the earth
there's seemingly alot of work to do.
i need to list out before this failing memory of mine messes up stuff.
readings.script.shoottimeline.propsdesign.com201quiz.metasongs.campplanning.MS8202lects.mcq.getbizlawright.
prayers.prayers.prayers.

sat's service has only 1 word to desribe it.
overflow.
overflowing of God's spirit.
overflowing of songs from the heart.
this is my song:
You are God
You are God
You are God, Almighty.

for today's unit cg,
we're really blessed to have the bangkok team with us.
they're really anointed people spearheading many things in church and in the world.

chin chin's sharing presented me with a different perspective of our giftings and about unity.
we really shouldnt feel small with our giftings now.
because they are god given
he planted this mustard seed in us and will make it grow as we stay faithful with it.
inadequency has been an issue for me since like i dont know when.
amazed as i am every time i see some short film or some clip
i always ask myself
can i achieve that with what i have now?
then it's not a matter of what i have,
but a matter of what god has for me.
i must be faithful and diligent with what i have now.

i get brought down by something called the big E.
not so often now but still an issue.
got to learn how to leave room for differences to allow people into my heart.

this ministry is not easy.
the blessings from Levities flows to the congregation.
we're responsible for the church growth.
i am responsible for the church growth.

14But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him.
15For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing.
16To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task?
17Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.
2 corinthians 2:14-17

this verse laid open in front of me when ham was sharing about thanksgiving for being in this ministry. For the opportunity to serve in the kingdom with our talents and for everything, the reason being christ died for us.

Treasures in Jars of Clay
1Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart.
2Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.
3And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
4The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
5For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
6For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness", made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
11For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body.
12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak,
14because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence.
15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God
16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.
17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
2 corinthians 4

continued with 2 cor and seriously...
"God, You Good"
