24 Feb 08 - Well of Living Waters

I know it's freaky.. I feel so too.. But it's just God's marvelous work!

The fact is.. I had been feeling 'dry' in my spirit (if u know what I mean)..I know God has been and is guiding, watching my every step, esp in my cross-over; I know I have to face a lot of differences in the manner of praise and worship and get myself adjusted; I know it is the same omnipresent God who created me and is with me throughout my Christian faith and esp what happened recently, He is the Great I Am.. But I just cannot help feeling 'dry', feeling 'alone'..my words of prayer weigh so heavy..

I know i have to do something-i cannot slacken in my spirit. I pray for God to quench of this thirst.. Trust me, I really don't feel like praying but I just said it anyway..Felt a 'tug' that maybe I should return to my previous church, at least just for this weekend..I ended up doing my retail therapy yesterday and forgotten about this tug.

This morning, the moment i wake up, I woke up in 'panic'.. in a such panic that I'll miss the live internet broadcast of my previous church (yes, we have live internet broadcast for all to join our service)..I thought at least I can just enjoy the praise and worship which I'm so familiar with (I know the importance to give thanksgiving to our Lord, even though it's really hard..)

The new worship song hit me - "Holy Spirit fall on us, rekindle us with Your Fire and Power, come and quench our thirst".. I considered it as 'coincidence', but I really did hope to pull down Heaven to myself in my room..After the Praise and Worship, my laptop suddenly became mute!! Serious! No reason, I tried reconnecting and all ways to get the audio back.. then I glanced at the clock, oh.. it's time to go for my mass.....(I must be singing so loud, cos my family knew I'm praying after I came out from my room)..

I have this 'surprise' when I stepped into mass hall! The Word today is 'come and drink from me, living waters of life".. Trust me, I really don't know this sharing thingy beforehand.. I just cant help thanking God for hearing my prayer, though it's really heavy words from my mouth.. I really enjoyed the mass today though the gospel sharing is longer than usual, but I simply enjoy every word of it!

John 4:4-42 is on how Jesus came to the well, met the Samaritan woman, how she interpreted His living water as her daily water routine..As Jesus begain to explain more, she become more open to His Wisdom and soon the whole town came and experience God for themselves.

I don't know how you think but this passage just blesses my spirit so much so much..I want to drink from this well of Living Waters now, and pray God will reveal His Will to me, explain to me why things happened..I know God is guiding me,speaking to me, though I don't understand Him now..

I pray for His revival in my spirit, and for His church His Body.. I will learn to be patient and wait for the Lord just as the Samaritians wait for the Messiah to come and explain to them..I know it's not easy, it's just words... but God is with me. Praise to God in the Highest!
