Everyone needs compassion
Love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender
Shine your light in
Let the whole world see
We're singing, for the glory
Of the risen King
Jesus, Shine your light in
Let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory
Of the risen king

I'm positive I'm balding. Like a handful of strands a time. Every single time I run my fingers through my hair, it's like- oh dear.
Geez.
Still, I shall keep growing my hair. Too lazy to get it cut and I'm still not at the length where I can do nice stuff with it yet. And too tired to try other shampoos/hair stuff.
Holidays. Got to take a REAL break. Doesn't feel like a holiday to me. Weekends are just as busy. But I don't want to be busy. I want to be fruitful, yet rested. Yes- rested. Not be perpetually stressed or lacking in sleep.
Someone just told me, "Michelle... you the steady lah".
I'm only steady in God lah. On my own, I'm a mess.
CCLT. Pastor Pat said something that struck me: the more you grow as a leader, the more dependent you are on God. Wow. Yes you grow more capable, technically, in terms of skills. But at the same time we grow more reliant on God because that's what spiritual maturity and intimacy is all about.
It takes guts to say, "God, I know I can't. So I want to be more dependent on You." Good 'ol pride must be out of the way. That's where I want to be headed. Time to be vulnerable, inadequate and dependent. But when I'm weak, I am strong, because His power is made perfect in weakness.
Lord, I really need Your grace.2 Corinthians 12:9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.
