Healing is in Your hands

Healing is in Your hands
by Christy Nockels, Daniel carson, Nathan Nockels, Matt Redman and Chris Tomlin

No mountain, no valley

No gain or loss we know

Could keep us from Your love

No sickness, no secret

No chain is strong enough

To keep us from Your love

To keep us from Your love

How high, how wide

No matter where I am

Healing is in Your hands

How deep, how strong

Now by Your grace I stand

Healing is in Your hands

Our present, our future

Our past is in Your hands

We're covered by Your blood

We're covered by Your blood

How high, how wide
No matter where I am
Healing is in Your hands

How deep, how strong
Now by Your grace I stand
Healing is in Your hands

In all things, we know that

We are more than conquerors

You keep us by Your love

You keep us by Your love

Today, our church had a healing service and there was an alter call for people who needed healing, so people went. Many of them. I was at my seat, praying for those out at the alter, but was also reflecting on how so many people need a healing touch from God and praying for the ones I know of. Lately, many people around me and their family member have been sick, be it physically, emotionally or mentally, and some are even experiencing loss of loved ones.

It is only by God's grace and power can all these be healed. God's love is so high, so wide, so deep and so strong, that nothing can keep us from His love and His power of healing. Especially us who are His children, we definitely have the grace from our heavenly Father, and in Him we are more than conquerors (Romans 8:37). Just like what is said in the song.

Healing is in His hands.

After church service, I was waiting at the tram stop, on my way home. I saw a father and a son playing at the tram stop on the opposite side, while waiting for their tram. The son was only little, probably 2 years old? or maybe 1 +? Not sure, but he was little. At one point, the son stretched out his arms, and ran towards his father excitingly (is this a word? =p), and the father, then stretched his arms, caught his son and carried him up with a big wide smile on his face. At that moment, I could see the smile of love of the father, so sweet.

This reminds me of how we have to come to our heavenly Father with a child-like faith; stretching our arms wide, running to Him, and knowing that He will catch us and carry us up and tight, with a big wide smile of love on His face. Because we are called His children (John 1:12-13; Galatians 3:26-27) and He loves us (John 3:16).

Daisies brighten up my day =)

I was never a big fan of flowers, until this spring. Daisies, are the MOST beautiful flowers on earth - I think -. =) I've just realize them this spring and instantly fell in love with them. The white ones, with shades of purple and a purple centre. =) However, they look even better when mixed with other shades of purple daisies, and of course, in a bush of green leaves, under the bright warm sun of spring. =D

Aren't they just lovely?? Well, the picture may not be as nice as the real thing, excuse my bad poor photography skills + I was in a hurry + it wasn't a very sunny day + I was using my phone camera. The real ones look much better. And, because it was rather cloudy today, the petals are not fully opened. On a sunny day, the petals open up more and they look EVEN better! *totally in love* =p I wonder if I could plant them in Malaysia. Would have a whole garden of them, along with other colours of daisies, and maybe other small little flowers. *heart heart*

On another note, our pastor shared something yesterday that I thought was very interesting and true: -God is Love-

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (Often quoted, bur probably never been given as much thought to)

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Love = God

God is patient, God is kind. He does not envy, He does not boast, He is not proud. He is not rude, He is not self-seeking, He is not easily angered, He keeps no record of wrongs. God does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. He always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. God never fails. =)

Isn't that amazing? For all of us who wonder who God really is, there we have our answer. This is our God. =)

Afresh - Anew

Decided to start a afresh and anew, abandoning the previous depressing self i portrayed and reveal more than just the dark side. =)

Hopefully I will be able to keep this up!
