Show us the Ancient Paths by Tom Inglis

Lord we confess that we have wandered

Far from your purpose and plan

And willingly walked in the wrong direction

We disobeyed your command

Father forgive us

Spirit come lead us

Back to the way

Back to the truth

Back to the foot of the cross

Chorus:

Show us the ancient paths

Lead as along eternal highways

We want to walk in the ways of Jesus

We want to enter your rest 2x

Lord it’s your mercy and good intentions

That constantly calls us to you.

Your replenished patience and kind correction

Will come in with love coming through.

You are our hope and salvation

You are our joy

You gave us grace

And courage to carry the cross

Chorus:

Show us the ancient paths

Lead as along eternal highways

We want to walk in the footseps of Jesus

We want to enter your rest 2x

We want to live up to set our footprints

For those who will follow behind

Sign posts in our life that point to Jesus

A path they will easily find

We want to fill up the sufferings of Jesus

As we obey,

our lives display

The glorious way of the cross

GDC learning nuggets--"Show Us the Ancient Paths"

"Show us the ancient paths"- This verse retained in my mind after the Global Discipleship Conference that was held in Manila, Philippines on May 22-25, 2013.

The whole Bible verse is found in

(Jeremiah 6:16)

"This is what the Lord says:

'Stand at the crossroads and look;
ask for the ancient paths,
ask where the good way is, and walk in it,
and you will find rest for your souls.
But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’ "

What is this 'ancient path' that is mentioned in this verse?

This ancient path is the righteous path which God wants us to take; the path which is forgotten by the generation today. Stand at the crossroads and ask God for the ancient path; the path which Noah took, the path which Abraham walked. the path which Moses chose, the path which David lived, the path which the disciples, apostles, and prophets endured, and the path which Jesus embraced and accepted.

This is the same path that we should commit ourselves to. Let us take up the cross and follow Him, who is waiting at the end of the path.

What I Have Learned So Far...

Hi guys! I said right from the start of my blog that I will share to you the things I have learned as I journey in this life of mine that God has given me, but I still haven't posted something that I have learned specific. So to sum up all the things I have learned, I will now post it in doodles. Hope that you can learn something from it. ^_^

 And that'ts it! I can't say that I have fully practiced and applied this learnings, but I know that God is working on me little-by-little. We are all working-in-progress as we progress through the ups-and-downs of life, but know that whatever happens, God is there with you always.

God bless you!

Trying To Picture What's On My Head

The cat is away and the mouse will play!

My older sister is the cat and I am the mouse. What do I do when she is in school? I do a lot of stuff...including playing around with her laptop! When I see a dress or clothes, I get inspired and imagine  a character wearing those clothes then I draw it and then I try to wear it! Have you ever tried that? When you imagined a character and was inspired to draw it, but failed drawing it exactly?

I was trying to look for the blue dress I had, but failed and i also didn't find the accessories to match, so when I tried to dress it up it turned out like this:

 This one I edited again through picmonkey and turned my clothes into green, but I guess white is nice also so  I didn't color the other one green.

Then I tried to dress-up another "charcter" in my mind. (still going to work out the drawing)

When my sister came back from school, I showed the pictures to my sister and she laughed and edited them again through photoshop... Well she is the artistic one between the two of us.

Here is the edited ones by her:

(Psalm 139:14)

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,    I know that full well."

Oh and for your information, these pics were self-shots through webcam. It was really hard to pose with only 3 seconds to do so. And I was also in a 'squat' position while I posed because I didn't fit in the screen... :0 so much for playing with my Ate's webcam.

How about you? Have you ever tried doing that in webcam?

(From now on I won't use script font so that everyone can understand what I write...)
