Revival

What can be better than to worship God with His house and being ministered by Him? By the time i realised it, we have been standing for 3 hours. The conference was a true blessing.

Sometimes, or rather most of the time, your relationship with God is a decision on your part, and the things you do every day reflects certain aspects of your convictions.

Well, on to something lighter. The song that my friend and I wrote were shortlisted into the top 3 list out of 23 songs submitted for the competition. Given the fact that we were confined in a small space of a 2m by 1m room with no air-conditioning or ventilation for 7 hours, stopping only for lunch consisting of pastamania delivery, I guess we did pretty ok. While I am not considering song-writing as a career, I think I might enjoy writing a song or two once in a while. (Like every six months?)

Then again, we did it with the purpose of growing the Lord's kingdom. It was only then that I realised it was all worthwhile. So don't expect tragic operas, majestic symphonies or virtuosic concertos from me. I'm writing contemporary music, much to the dismayed (but currently unknown) reputation of my family.
