Morning encounter

This morning I had another encounter. oh one more thing about yesterday..I told God..(When the tutor called us to come back on monday after 3-4minutes)

"Whoa..like that also can! lol. God, You are IMPOSSIBLE man..haha"

yea i was a BIT happy..at least i wasnt that tense anymore haha.

ok, back to my encounter this morning..

I woke up, i dunno why, mebbe its cus i had to pract for cg later, so i thought, hmm..why not do a dry run now without the chords..cus i havent printed em yet..

and so i picked up my guitar..the song But God has copyright and G4C doesnt allow e chords to be displayed so i just played by feeling and hearing and i managed to tab e song out. and so..i played But God..it was great.

and when i tried playing For This Cause..well, i was playing without chords and some notes went off key..as soon as i started singing in e spirit, something incredible happened. i was singing as usual, melodies just came out..new songs came out..

btw, its been a long time since i did any of my own songs haha. and so, i was just singing this chorus "I love you, my Jesus. Forever, my Lord and Friend" and the Holy Spirit just entered my room. i remembered what ps said about the secret place.

its a moment on intimacy, in a room, no phone, no computer, no distraction. when ure truly alone, when u truly love God, when you truly seek God, alone in a room, God WILL show up.

and i started singing slower..i started praying in e spirit, singing in understanding, praying in understanding..i was just overwhelmed by e presence of God. it felt as if i was in that cg meeting last sunday. those who went know what it felt like..

and i started tearing..as i was tearing i talked to God..it was a moment of intimacy. and i soon found myself just wailing like a baby before God. in just 45 minutes, not only i experienced intimacy between 'husband and wife', i experienced 2 levels of intimacy. the other being the intimacy between 'Father and son'.

it was a 'multiple' haha if i can put it tt way. some girls will know what 'multiple-ahem' means when u talk about intimacy haha. i shall not mention it here cus i have people under 18 who read my blog so its ok :)) anyway, thats my life for you. exciting and never boring. indeed that 45 minutes was a great start for my day, and we should start everyday not just with e presence of God, but with an encounter.

i remembered what Dr AR Bernard said about the levels of relationship. You start of as an acquaintance when you first meet God. Slowly you become friends. which is good. But the highest level of relationship is intimacy. Dr AR Bernard once said, you CANNOT experience intimacy if you cant fulfill the lower levels of relationship. Acquaintance, friendship, companionship, etc. (I need to refer to my notes).

Intimacy is the highest level. a friendship is good. when you reach the level where ure totally committed thats even better. how much of your life have you surrendered to Him? its not about getting emotional, its about touching God!

one word from God and your life will never be the same.
one encounter from God and your life has been changed.
thats the difference.

really..all it takes to touch God like that is just the right attitude. if you have a guitar, just take it and play, even if you dont know. just learn 4 chords to play. melodies can just come. and when i pray or sing in e spirit, i use 4 chords if not 3, and on some rare occasions, 5 chords. with 4 chords u can play almost any song.

u might think, nah, im not wired to play e guitar. but im sure ure wired to worship right? so just give it a shot. if it doesnt seem to work, never mind, at least play some soft worship song in e background to build up the atmosphere.

part of learning to be intimate with God is learning to create your own atmosphere. just like a honeymoon, you have to make preparations, make sure e ambience is good, etc. its just like that. ps once said, how you treat people is a reflection of how you treat God. if your relationship with God isnt working out, your relationship with people will not work out.

if you cant be intimate with God, how to be intimate with people? if you cant create at atmosphere of love in your own room by yourself, how to be loving to others? similarly if your life with God is dry and boring, let me tell you, your life with people will be dry and boring.

thats how it is. its all about relationship. its all about attitude. its all about the way you think.
