I pray that You would keep me mystified

Today I spent the day being creative. :P I’m not the most creative person around, and I know a lot more people who can make something really good out of spare scraps of papers and other random art materials and I’m not really one of them. My scrapbooking skills always end up looking the same, and whenever I try to add a lot of elements, it always ends looking messy, not artistic.

But much thanks to my dear friend Bea, I learned a lot more things on scrapbooking and being creative. :P Haha. Today, my high school friends came over to make a scrapbook for someone, and I suddenly became the head of the creative team. Haha, so I pretended to be “creative” and with a lot of paper, glue, cutting, and old magazines, we actually got a pretty nice thing in the end. :P I forgot to take pictures, but I’ll take them on Wednesday when we meet each other again. I think I might just have a career in layouting. :)

And speaking of new layouts…I should make one for this site soon.

I’m feeling mighty unhealthy; maybe it’s because I haven’t been doing physical activity for almost two weeks. :-s That’s what happens when you get stuck inside the house all day. I need physical activity. I wish I could go and enroll myself in the gym so that at least I have something to do everyday, but I feel like going to a gym is one big unnecessary luxury…but it beats doing nothing. Maybe I should seriously consider that, while I’m still unemployed and all. I need to start thinking healthy.

Anyway, I had a great time with my high school friends. It was nice talking to them again and it always reminds me that what we got here is for real. I’ve known those people for more than eight years already…our friendship is bound to last, right? I wonder what would happen when one of us gets married and then starts having kids. Haha. Too early to think about that, Tina. ;)

And speaking of amazing friends, my YFC-DLSU brothers and sisters rock. :) Around 4:00pm today, my phone was suddenly flooded with messages all saying, “Bea told me to tell you that she’s praying for you. I’m praying for you too”, or “I’m praying for you. God loves you!” And all similar messages. :) Altogether, one big AWWWWW. :”> Even some of the new members texted me, even if they don’t If you guys could read this…THANK YOU SO MUCH. :) You are truly my second family. I miss you guys. ♥

And speaking of families…last Saturday, I am officially a member of CFC Singles for Christ (SFC). Hello, new world! It’s fun being the youngest again, calling everyone an ate and kuya…and it is a lot different from YFC but we all have to move on sometime, and this is my time, I guess.

I just realized that through all these changes I’ve been going through, God is teaching me to walk by faith and not by sight. I have absolutely NO idea where I’m headed but I know God has something planned for me, and I know that He’s leading me to where He wants me to go. A lot of changes are happening, and you know, I’m being lead out of my comfort zones…but it’s all for good. Right?

So I pray, like what my title says…keep me mystified, Lord! When I’m mystified, I abide in You and that’s what I want to do for my life! :)

I feel like I am not making sense anymore…so I shall quit this and get ready for bed. I think I’m gonna hit the sack early today. Tomorrow I shall be programming in Flash the whole day. Yay. :P And before I go, here’s a song I just downloaded from the Grassroots Music website, and this is where I got the title of my post. :)

The More
downhere
Wideyed and Mystified

I met You like a little child
Wide-eyed and mystified
That You could love even me
So I’m here to testify
That it’s been an amazing ride with You
And I have never walked alone
Wanna give You every moment, every minute
It’s takes a lifetime to know You, to know You

And the more You show me, the more You grow me
The more Your glory becomes all there is
And the more I know You, the more I need You
The more I love You, the more You become to me

Fast-forward to the golden years
A smaller pride and a bigger fear
But still, no way are we done yet
I pray that You would keep me mystified,
In every way that I will still abide in You
Till You come to take me home
Wanna give You every moment, every minute
And take a lifetime to know You, to know You

Wanna give You every moment, every minute
I’ll take a lifetime to know You
Hold me Lord, keep me
Draw me closer every moment of my life

Good night world. I shall hit dreamland in a few. :)
