Returning

I guess I won't be blogging here anymore. There's so much to do, so many walks to take with Daddy God... He has wasted no time and I want to keep up! So, I'll be continuing this journey in my original blog where I have been writing of things from a deeper perspective.

I started Paul's Race to keep me focused on walking with Jesus. I had thought about the thoughts in my head and realized how wayward it wants to be at any given moment. I used the blog to train my thoughts on to His thoughts, His heart and His love. And in shaping my thoughts and expanding my energy into crafting the words, it became a sort of worship unto Him. It sorts me out good. :)

Be blessed!

Does God Dance?

He sure does. And I'm so glad He does cos then that means I can stop feeling like a depraved weirdo and start believing that dance is a gift that can be used to glory Him.

I got this book from the Eagle's Nest at Bethel Church. Well, of course I had to get it...

I've only started reading it, and here were some verses that talks about God dancing. :)

This is one of my favorite verses of all time anyways.

The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.
-Zepheniah 3:17

"Rejoice over you" is translated from the Hebrew guwl, which is to "spin around under the influence of any violent emotion, to be glad and rejoice." 

I am always in awe of how deeply God feels about us. :)

 You are my hiding-place; You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance
-Psalm 32:7

"Surround" in Hebrew is cabab, which is "to revolve, to circuit, to walk, to turn self or to whirl.

And this one... that makes me swoon over Jesus again...

At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit said, "I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure."
- Luke 10:21

"Full of joy" from the Greek word agalliao literally means to jump for joy.

Can you imagine Jesus jumping for joy? I CAN!!! :) :) :) 

Webbed In

I’m still internalizing all that has happened over the last twenty days. It has felt like an abundant number of bite sized nuggets, each containing a potent amount of sugar and caffeine, hitting me regularly enough so that the buzz never wore out (except at Central Park!). 

I guess what I’m trying to say is that there was a common theme of favor, resource, timeliness, sturdy companionship and sharpness of mind. And this has borne fruit in the ecstasy, pervaded by unearthly peace, the confidence and security in Christ, and how highly favored and loved I’d felt.

I was pondering how I could be so charged up on little things. Well, there were MANY little things. I didn’t have a miracle healing to boast to the world from this trip, or an angelic manifestation to geek out over. But I did experience the miracle of salvation - the covenant of reconciliation. I’ve heard about long-married couples proclaiming their confidence and security from their relationship because of the little things their spouses knew about them and how they act upon such intimate information. They identify this as love and with it, a whole host of other good things.

This trip had made me feel like a daughter that was on a date with her Daddy God. I blush with His goodness but never once felt like I had earned it. Nor do I have to do anything or perform just to show my appreciation. I was just being unabashedly given till my arms were full and spilling over. This had given me such confidence, because He knew what I needed for the trip, what worried me, how I am careless with some things, how my nerves get to me sometimes, how I like some things, and so on and so forth. 

Is it the big, world changing, out of the box type miracles that gives me assurance of my relationship with Christ? Selah.

God is with us and this well-loved statement definitely has another dimension to it. 

You can't stop a river from flowing

Last night we were out celebrating my brother's 36th birthday and we had a chance to talk about what I'd learned at the DMT Intensive.

This time, I felt like my family was all ears to listened to me as my brother asked question after question wanting to learn more about dance movement therapy.

I had my chance and I think I sold it. :)

Asian Food Revenge

Dear Daddy God, thank you for bee hoon and lime leaves and lemongrass and chilli and cheap sea food and onions and straw mushrooms and bubble and tea and milk and laminated covers and fat straws and chopsticks.
