i think sermon today fits what i'm facing right now. the whole taking a step back and allowing God to take control. sometimes i really want to but i tend to forget and revert to taking everything into my own hands, then realising it's too much for me to take. if i knew His power enough, this probably won't be the case. and when i went up for prayer, there was just this strong assurance which only He could bring. when i'm inadequate, He's adequate, adequate for me.

still
hide me now
under Your wings
cover me
within Your mighty hands

when the oceans rise and thunders roar
i will soar with You above the storm
Father you are King over the flood
i will be still, know You are God

find rest my soul
in Christ alone
know His power
in quietness and trust

i think this song really speaks of the power we have in Christ. all i ask now is for those quiet moments and the reliance. felt the strong prompthing to sing this song for last sat's worship, which i did. and it was sung last sunday, and today during worship too. i want a retreat now, holiday's not the word, retreat is. i want to retreat(reminds me of hermit crabs) to someplace scenic and reflection-inducing.

honestly i'm quite tired now. on my part, the ycomm meeting just now was just out of obligation, i would have postponed it if the april matters didn't require urgent tending to. and i think meeting today was kinda distracted, comparing to the other meetings we've had so far. but anyway, thanks so much jawn for doing up the agenda and by doing so spared me the panicc-urgency bit.
