All Things New

Then Jesus who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.”

“Write, for these words are true and faithful.” Revelation 21:5

God makes all things new.
ALL things.
I pray that i'll be reminded each day that my existence is only because of God
and He makes all things new.
No longer do i have to look back at

My mistakes,
My regrets,
My sins,
My years wasted,

bt i look at Jesus
who : -
Loves me for me
- without any condition even when i was a sinner and still sins now in the pursuit of His righteousness

Set me free and can set me free frtom all other coming things

Will never leave me
- even when i often chose to deny Him and choose sin

Is Good & Sovereign
- knows everything in my life and everything about me and the ppl i love and care about

Makes ALL things work for good to those who loves Him, who are called according to His purpose.

And i am starting to love Him because He first loved me.

whatever
My mistakes,
My regrets,
My sins,
My years wasted,

He can work it for good for His greater purpose.

Thank you Lord..
All glory belong to You.

Given in His hands,
He can

x

Js wanan add,
dun get me wrong.

My x is a great guy.
and i hurt him alot, alot.
If i can i really wish i never hurt him and made all those mistakes.
but only God can restore and repay him for whatever i did to him and watever he gave and i took and can never give bak.
but God makes all things news and i know He will.
I pray for him every single day now.
And i really wish the best for him and hope he'll meet Jesus one day face to face like he desires
and to experience true joy and that peace tht truely surpasses all understanding and being filled in a way that only God can which all the things in this world can't.
Im looking forward to that day :)

Legacy

Like Mark Driscoll says all the time

U dont want just a boyfriend and a good weekend,
but a great husband and a legacy.

1st time i heard about someone leaving a legacy was from Nicole Nordeman's song Legacy.
and somehow, those words " i wanna leave a legacy" stayed throughout all these years.

Though at that time i questioned, isnt legacy a very big thing?
and how can someone like me leave a legacy? I was about 15 just then. growing up in the environment where i never felt lyk i fit in and with ppl telling me all the time that my opinions amount to nothing and that i'm too young to do anything if i wanted to.

I gave up the idea of changing this world and making this world a better place not long after and become just like everyone else just nothing bt fully absorbed in my own issues and problems.

But lately, I've been reminded of legacy again. Thru mark driscoll and this returning burning desire and passion i used to have. Fire for God i believe is reigniting in my heart. and this time its gonna be better than the previous time i had!

So , i want to leave a legacy and with God i will leave a legacy.
and when my future husband comes along, we'll leave a legacy together as a couple, a family , a team , an army for God.

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to You enough To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace
whoblessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity
