He is sovereign.

and it's times when it doesn't seem so, where we have to see this fact.


We need Him.

and the times when we do not think so, are the very times we very much do.



and when things happen, sometimes we wonder what's going on? why did it have to come to such a state?

but at the back of our minds, some things just have to be done.
tough love.

and bro(s), our families belong to Him, even though its not gonna be easy for us to see it sometimes... and though we probably going thru radically different situations (i assure u), let's all support one another...


"who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy. You will again have the compassion on us; You will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all ouriniquities into the depths of the sea."
~Micah7:18-19

bladder problem ;P

pissed many off this week
(ok, not that many, but enough to make me guilt ridden and reflective again).

and its all due to my flaws.

ironically, they are the ppl whom i serve along side in my ministries (BBGB??, PCF).



God help.
