In need

Sometimes it just feels like you need someone. Don't ya think? this song has been running thru my head since i went to sleep and it continued when i woke. just the chorus part keeps looping. hopefully it doesn't mean anything but just thot i'd share it.

It's not supposed to feel this way.
I need you, i need you, more and more each day.
It's not supposed to hurt this way.
I need you, i need you, i need you.

It's by Avril Lavigne... who currently is rocking my Zen. Her new album is not bad.. quite good actually. if anyone wants, let me know. Yeh... going thru some stuff in my life too that really makes me wonder how much i need people or need God. How much do i miss Him and want to talk to Him as compared to wanting to talk to someone. and i guess many many times i find myself ashamed that He's not the first person that comes to mind when i'm 'lonely'.

Exco prayer meeting yesterday was great. i really felt charged up and empowered as the comm prayed and i dun really like to say this coz it sounds charismatic in nature.. but i felt God's hand and presence there yesterday. maybe the rest might have been mumbling words just to get the prayers done... maybe some cried out from their hearts earnest questions and requests to God... whatever it is, i felt like standing on the mountain and praying to Him about the things on my paper. It was an awesome feeling that lasted past the prayer. Thank God for reminders like this that help us feel close to God. Whether or not we want to, God will never leave us. it's just how far we'll walk away before realizing we still do need Him.

And i love to feel like i can pray for people. people i'm worried for because of their circumstances/feelings at the point in time/busy-ness... whatever it is, if prayer can work and if i'm praying then i can't wait for God to work in their lives and show me once again that yes, prayer does.

And if you ask me, worryin for someone is a good sign. shows that you really do care for them and that they aren't jus a face and name to you but a friend, a brother or sister. So if people worry for you, rejoice because it's just God's way of showing His love to you thru them.

And for you, please see that if i worry, it's because there's cause to worry and that i'll never see it as a burden to pray for you. That's what we do in comm and Christian living, we pray for each other. no man's an island. Let's build each other up in prayer and love knowing that God's placed all of us in our lives for these reasons. :)

May you all have a blessed rest of the week. P.s. the post under this is written about Sunday's sermon. Give it a read and comment if ya want to. :) Ciaoz!
