Easter!

Hello!

Happy Easter (: It is a good reminder to me also; what an amazing God we serve that he rose from the dead and like, showed himself to many people manymany years ago (:

So..well it's in the middle of my Easter break (the month of April) and I have done some studying, and some travelling x) Specifically on my veryshort 2day Belgium trip on the 20th of April, on a train ride in the morning, I just...well, did morning devotion. I wasn't sleepy at all cos I slept well the night before and .. yupp, why not haha. It was Mark 15-16, on the resurrection and as I was reading, my ipod shuffled to Chris Tomlin's Unfailing Love. And it was..very uplifting.

You have my heart
And I am Yours forever
You are my strength
God of grace and power

And everything You hold in Your hand
Still You make time for me
I can't understand

Praise you God of earth and sky
How beautiful is Your unfailing love
Unfailing love
And You never change
God You remain the Holy One
My unfailing love
Unfailing love

So I was reading about Jesus' resurrection, and what he actually did. He was beaten and flogged, and crucified. And then the tomb which was made secure, became er, unsecure, and the women were afraid when he appeared to them. The disciples were afraid as well (which is logicial! Considering he died not too long ago ehy.) but he did actually come back to life and went up into heaven and all that.

Anyway, it really went into my head; this God who sent his Son to be crucified for my sins, this all powerful God who holds everything in his hand, and now, even now, ..especially now, he still makes time for me. I just felt so awed by God in that instant. This is amazing stuff, this mega-giganormous God, he makes time for insignificant me! Why oh why do I still feel so unsatisfied? God I want good grades, God I want more money, God I want a boyfriend, God I want God I want God I want..it's so selfish. God is bigger than this and at that moment I was just so thankful for all the blessings God has given me, the biggest of all is salvation. A line that Jmom (from lotsofscotts.blogspot.com) uses sometimes is, my heart is full. And it popped into my head and kept repeating itself. My heart is really full, I don't need any of these of the world, God is all I need (and not just part of what I need, but all).

Ah I pray for remembering this lesson. Because we are all forgetful creatures.
