I Am Confident of This

I have been meaning to put this into a song and finally last sunday, God gave me the tune and I finished my third song. This one is pretty upbeat and has the influence of Fatima Rainey's song "hey". I love the lyrics and the style. This one was taken from Psalms 27 where David wrote that he is still confident that he will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living and therefore he resolved to be strong and take heart and wait on the Lord. Sometimes I feel impatient as to when all his promises will come true in my life and I kindda get challenged in my faith but in the end I decide to trust God's timing because he knows what he is doing. He is sovereign, He created me, He knows what is best for me. And this is my assurance, God's word, that i can put my confidence on the fact that I will see his goodness, not when I'm dead but in my lifetime i will experience and taste it. All I need is to wait on Him..not on the person, but on God. Soon all my song

Wise Words from Shinjoe

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Be careful of words, even the miraculous ones. For the miraculous we do our best, sometimes they swarm like insects and leave not a sting but a kiss. They can be as good as fingers. They can be as trusty as the rock you stick your bottom on. But they can be both daisies and bruises. Yet I am in love with words. They are doves falling out of the ceiling. They are six holy oranges sitting in my lap. They are the trees, the legs of summer, and the sun, its passionate face. Yet often they fail me. I have so much I want to say, so many stories, images, proverbs, etc. But the words aren't good enough, the wrong ones kiss me. Sometimes I fly like an eagle but with the wings of a wren. But I try to take care and be gentle to them. Words and eggs must be handled with care. Once broken they are impossible things to repair. @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ When day is done I steal away To fold my hands in rest, And of my hours this moment grey I love the best; So quie
