well i'm back and now i'm a little lost,
'How do you pick up the threads of an old life ? How do you go on, when in your heart, you begin to understand, there is no going back ?' - Frodo Baggins
everything's so different now, i see things from a different perspective and comparisons keep coming in. when they do all i can do is to pray. rachel was right, reentry is not very pleasant. and it wasn't just missing the people i was with for 11 days in such close proximity either, but the whole place, sj and the worship, i just pray that tng will become like that, and the 9am too. tessa misses sj too, just watching the people right after worship just snap right out of it and start socialising straight away, it was quite painful because it was as if God's presence is just something that comes when the music is playing, the moment it stops it's over, like some button you can switch on and off or something. if it's not that then it's like they're just singing the songs because it's there and they aren't even worshipping - i don't know which one is worse. i'm not being critical because i was just like that before
'blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted'
matthew 5:4

the trip was amazing. God was just so real and you could see Him everywhere we looked, especially on the 5 hour bus rides through the mountains and the scenery was just wowing, and the pictures don't even capture half of its actual beauty but it was just so wonderful. it wasn't just the nature, but it was also how He works in the lives of the people there, it's so hard to type it out, i dont know how to make them understand
How Great is our God
Chris TomlinThe splendour of a King,
Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice,
All the earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light,
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at his voice,
And trembles at his voice
How great is our God,
sing with me
How great is our God,
and all who sing
How great, How great
Is our God
Age to age he stands
And time is in His Hands
Beginning and the End,
Beginning and the End
The Godhead, Three in one
Father, Spirit, Son
The Lion and the Lamb,
The Lion and the Lamb
How great is our God,
sing with me
How great is our God,
and all who sing
How great, How great
Is our God
Name above all names
You are Worthy of all praise
and My heart will sing how great
Is our God
