They'll sing Oh how God rests in reason. - Jason Mraz

God Moves Through You - Jason Mraz

You were born together,
and together ye shall be forever.
Until death should scatter,
it wouldn't matter in the memory of God above.
Let the wind of heaven dance between you too;
allow the space and time to bring you closer to everlasting love.
Cause god moves.
What do you do,
God moves through you.

When love beckons,
his ways are often hard and steep.
When his wings unfold,
ya yield to all he speaks,
the soul it might be hidden there among his pinions
Oh you may wear a wound that truly spoke to you.
Believe in all that voice and follow through,
follow so on and on.

What do you do when God moves through you?
What do you do say...
I do, I do

Just remember love possesses nothing.
Nor would it ever be possessed.
Oh love is love sufficient unto love,
and you can figure out the rest.

Your children will not be your children,
they are the daughters and the son of a beginning.
They'll come through your womb but not be coming from you.
They will be with you but do not belong to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
then they'll arrive with their own hearts.
They're the coming of angels this blessed season,
and then they'll sing oh how God rests in reason,
God rests in reason.

So what do you do ooh...
when God moves through you.
What do you do say?
I do, I do.

Think not you can direct the course of
love itself directs the course allowed.
Believe not God is in your heart, child
but rather you're in the heart of God.

So I haven't blogged in a long while... seemed appropriate and fitting to write an entry on this triumphant day... Easter Sunday. Right now, I'm on a Jason Mraz binge, listening to a wide variety of his styles and songs. I really like his voice, boyish yet rugged (reminds me of Damien Rice) ; his guitar playing, unpolished yet comforting (reminds me of Hayden or toned down John Mayer); his lyrics, complicated yet somehow making sense ( like Dave Matthews' work). Ya know how those artsy/folksy/indie-esque ones are =) But in particular, this song seems so right for this weekend. I was surprised that he wrote something very Christian-related; it really stood out. The song really acknowledges that God is an all loving, all purposeful Master. He beckons us to join in communion and fellowship with Him, and to view daily life through His eyes.

Whilst on my "not so productive" periods of studying, where I'd rather read ANYTHING other than my lecture notes and textbooks, I have started reading 2 books that have allowed me to introspectively reflect; on life, on faith, and on fellowshipping with my family, friends and with my church and fellowship families.
One of these books, was one given to me by a truly remarkable sister whom I have a deep respect for; whose currently doing Missions and Evangelism in China for the year. Called Safely Home, by Richard Alcorn, it's a fictional novel which depicts the persecution of the church and the Body of Believers in China. I had never known the autrocities and great struggles to which these home churches have had to endure. I realized that my past views on the limitations and allowances of free worship in China and even in Asia have been skewed due to my own comforts in North America. Now it's different..God opened my eyes to only one of many of the occurrences for which his people are being persecuted and martyred for.
Another book which I'm currently reading is The Calvary Road, by Roy Hession. Many people have boasted about the powerful message contained in this short book. I can recall that Pastor Steve Hawkins of Operations Mobilizations would strongly advise to read this book once or more every year. And believe me, after the first 2 chapters, this book has changed the way I have viewed and understood Brokenness, God's overflowing cup of hope and new life, and the meaning of the word Peace. (I'll update you guys more on this book at a later time...I'm getting drowsy..)

On a lighter note, I had a wonderful and relaxing Easter weekend. Although Friday seemed painstakingly long, I managed to do..... NO WORK AT ALL!! Instead, I just took a day off to relax and had a nice dinner and talk with Sa before heading off to Good Friday Service. I was pleasantly surprised by my parents' visit to our humble and rustic abode...on Saturday. We had our share of fun times; shopping at Super C, making Chinese soup (cause it's good for students like me =) , chatting etc... I truly Love my parents.. and I hope I'll one day be able to have a relationship with my daughter like the one I presently have with my mom=)

-this post was intended for last week.. ahah whoops =) didn't finish cause i wanted to add some stuff on.. but I guess i'll put it later !!

"BREAKING NEWS"
===============

-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.

These newly enhanced Global Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth before they can
be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for lumber is 30-50 years.

Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number of other benefits.
Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and the lack of oils and sap found in the wood
make it resistant to forest fire, ensuring higher returns on investments.

the wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.

Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140 Million
with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With anticipated
growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during its initial 9-year cycle.

Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153 Million in revenues.
As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree continues to grow around the world
EGTY believes additional multi-million dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of 250,000 infant plants per month.

Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business owners in New Zealand,
Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular and profitable fast growing infant tree plants.
Inquiries from the governments of Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.

Conclusion:

The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
