every beat of my heart

FOR THOSE TEARS I DIED

You said you'd come and share all my sorrows
You said you'd be there for all my tomorrows
I came so close to sending you away
But just like you promised, you came here to stay
I just had to pray

Chorus:
And Jesus said,
"Come to the water, stand by my side
I know you are thirsty, you won't be denied
I felt every tear drop, when in darkness you cried
And I strove to remind you, It's for those tears I died"

Your goodness so great, I can't understand it
And dear Lord I know now that all this was planned
I know You're here now and always will be
Your love loosened my chains, and in You I'm free
But Jesus why me?

Chorus

Jesus I give You, my heart and my soul
I know now without God, I'll never be whole
Savior, You opened all the right doors
And I thank You and praise You from earth's humble shores
Take me I'm Yours!

I will make a special effort to recall the lesson for the 2 of them
I want to communicate to them our blessed time with each other today.

At long last we started on this book by John Maxwell

PARTNERS in PRAYER chapt 1 17.5.09

Song: I will have no other gods before you

Strategy: I announced henceforth this gathering of God's daughters will no more function with teacher instructing students
but we will effectively run like a cell where all will come together as responsible adults to build up one another
I thank God that I can witness young mature ladies actively meeting the challenges of children and youth work for the Lord

Some Highlights
Statements/Scripture that is meaningful to each of us in this chapter. Alternatively,
Summary of what's happening in your current life if that's more exciting.

Diplomatic Debbie's in charge of craft in June Children's camp. She needs divine help to get things done smoothly as craft can be trying for little fingers.
Her partners in this overwhelming task humanly speaking is Linda Teoh and Serene.
Wicked me asked her what it was like working with aunties. hahahaha
I guess whether working with aunties or dearies or any busybodies,Debbie still needs inspired persperation to counter the exasperation.

Jenuine Jun. Greatly encouraged by her sharing that she has moved on to pray for others as well.
She used to pray for herself and it suddenly dawned upon her that that was a selfish thing to pursue if that is her entire agenda. Praying for others has brought her to a new level of communion with the Lord. In fact our Father in heaven has been refining this Sparker because she is always seeking and teachable

Echogenic Eunice. You remind me of Martha today. You have many thoughts and you are distracted by them. Your reflection on prayer is so true. Our efforts are multiplied if we pray and trust God take care of the areas not within our control.Yes my darling, student life is so bursting at the seams it is stressful. Me too. I too have a natural inclination to be a Martha. Next week hope to get more time in class by not starting late. Rushing class always makes me feel martharish.
Right on target,my love you choose - When we work; we work. When we pray God works. I am sure you also have many lovely Mary hours with the Lord. Enjoyed your dinner with the Teo's? You must love little godsis Shynna very much. Happy BD Shynna.

Behold Belly was rather contemplative on the topic of prayer. Hello, to her prayer is prayer. hahaha I guess she's a 'natural prayee' all her conscious life. It is like breathing. She does it intermittently throughout the day. When you have great discoveries further down the chapters you let us know ok?
I have great expectations looking up to you as a young lady of fervant prayer.

Assimilating Audrey is a habitual prayee. She is faithful to rely on God. Perhaps I have overlooked the fact that prayer has been changing her as well as the people around her. This probably extends to members of her family.
She is dependent on prayer as she understudies a couple to do God's bidding in the church. Prayer plays a pivotal role in team work

Wenture Wenx. Prays about anything and everything. Nothing ventured nothing gained. God wants to hear you out. Your heartaches notwithstanding. Trivial matters or earth shattering ones. You have been able to relate to the Almighty becaues you believe that He is Omipresent and omniscience. We have all used God as our emergency stops. Beloved sister of mine, don't stop there. Yearn to be elevated to the next new level of giving your heart to Jesus. Tell of your love with a grateful heart. Ask Him to show you teach and guide you to higher grounds. Ps 25:5. Prayer changes women.

Developer Diana has many portfolios. I admire her for her selfless undaunted style. Her timetable is bulging in the coming weeks with urgent preparations of Children's Camp. Let's make it our business to stand with her in prayer. God's hands move when people and pastors pray. Praying enhances spiritual and intelectual growth I am convinced. Diana says we need both

Vivacious Victoria thank you for being meticulous in your explanation. It helped us to understand this new found joy welling in your heart. You are sincere when you said you want to orientate your life to God's purpose. Your incentive to walk in His will is your conviction it will please Him. Your worthwhile pursuit is to know God's heartbeat. Finally when your heartbeat is in unison with God's, your spirit will know what to ask for and lead you to pray effectively. Reminds me of the soundtrack of a film with the scenes when they are synchronised. It is reel-y irritating when they are not in sync. Get the picture? hahahha I sense Lady Audrey's despair. Uprolling eyes with no more space to roll, "Untip you are very lame leh". hahahah Audrey my darling critic.
I miss Lady Angela terribly today. She's my fan. She often quips "Untip is #- - - - funny"
Angela Angela I challenge you to expunge this uncouth expression from your volcabulary. I pray God will answer my prayer before I am vanquished.

Victoria is putting God's gift to good use. Mural painting is formiable venture. Awesome.

Justifiable Jeanette sparked an captivating discussion with a hypothetical question.
"If God already has plans for us and it will inevitably come to past, then why do we still want to pray to God?"
I am thankful that you verbalised your thoughts so that we too can seek God's revelation prayerfully.
As we peruse this book, we should bear in mind this question and wait for God to reveal the answer to each of us.
I believe each will have unique answers tailored to fortify her faith

Lady Jeanette
If only my mother had prayed for her 3 daughters like Veron did, things would turn out differently in my family. For one, my brother in law would be a believer instead.
Give thanks that your mom is a prayer warrior. We are very proud of her presence in our church family. Better a prayer warrior be than a prayer worrier see.

Marriage is a relationship
It has to be forged
My marriage would not have blossomed
It would have froze to naught

If there had not been words intimately spoken
To convey how we felt and thought
My marriage cannot be salvaged
If I simply laze around and rot

God knows the beginning and the end no doubt
My mind cannot fathom why I must let Him know
All that is within
Perhaps this has got to do with how He fashioned me

I have peace and self worth only when somebody understands me perfectly
I found Him in Jesus our perfect groom
What shall I do when we all have to disperse
Jesus knows that day will come soon

Seek solitude and comfort in prayer, advocated by Lady Jun.
