Jeremiah 17:9-10

Jeremiah 17:9 "The heart is deceitful above all things."

God, I hear You!! LOL. Loud and clear. But just continue to guide me, to surrender all these feelings to You, O Lord.

I will be still and know You are God.

Led worship just now for the first time in my life. For the first time in a cell group. It was MIND-BLOWING. How God could use you when you just choose to listen to Him and bring forth His word, and to have that little faith to believe that the word you heard is from Him, but also trusting that no matter what mistakes you make, He will make it right.

Didn't have time to prepare for worship until 4pm just now. But already in the morning when I did AABB (A Psalm A Day), God spoke to me about being still before Him. It was right before reaching Psalm 46:10, that God suddenly brought to mind this phrase "Be still and know that I am God". And VOILA. Psalm 46:10 was about being still before God. When I reached home after getting strings from Davis at Peninsula, I just sat in front of my mac to do some emailing and stuff when God suddenly brought to my mind this song we sang last Sunday, "Still" by Hillsong. It was ALSO about being still before God. Then as I began to start clearing up my stuff to spend quiet time with God at about 3.30pm, He brought to mind "None But Jesus", which is also being still in the midst of storms and clinging onto God, knowing that He is God and that He will fight for us over the storms.

As I spent the time meditating upon Psalm 46, God just highlighted certain verses that He placed upon my heart to share for worship leading. Psalm 46:1-3, 4, 9-10 and even Psalm 37:7. God also brought to mind the sermon that Ps Khong preached on Sunday and the true meaning of "being still", to cling onto God in the face of storms.

But I was still not confident that this was the message that God wanted me to bring across. And I questioned myself. But when worship started, everything just felt so right. Everything just fell into place. Even the least of my concerns - my singing - also fell into place, except for a few minor hiccups. And when we reached the last song, "Power of Your Love", I felt the spirits of my cell group sisters rise up as they sang the chorus, lifting God's name high in praise. "Hold me close, let Your love surround me. Bring me near, draw me to Your side. And as I wait, I'll rise up like the eagle. And I will soar with You, Your spirit leads me on, in the power of Your love." This was what really convicted my heart. That indeed being still before God, and knowing that He loves us, this love that will enable us to face the storms in life, was the message that God wanted me to bring across.

And it just makes me happy knowing that I have fulfilled what God wanted me to do and to do anything for Him just makes me happy. HAHAHA.
