Each day is a gift from GOD

Remember the seven simple rules to be happy :

1. LOVING GOD

Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your
heart.
(Psalm 37:4)


2. THANKFULNESS

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing
one
another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
with
thankfulness in your hearts to God. (Colossians 3:16)


3. HOPE

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your
hope
in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. (Psalm 42:11)


4. CONTENTMENT

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what
you
have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I
forsake
you". (Hebrews 13:5)


5. JOY

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the
bones
(Proverbs 17:22)
Lord said, I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that
your
joy may be complete. (John 15:11)


6. DON'T WORRY

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and
petition,
with thanksgiving, preent your request to God. And the peace of God,
which
transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in
Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)


7. PEACE

Lord said, Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give
to you
as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be
afraid. (John 14:27)

Listening to GOD'S WORD

Here i am sitting on my bed, done my quiet time and i kept singing this song which i felt that its really how good it is to praise god and really i feel that we must spend more time praying for our schools, family, anything that is needed for prayer and even for our friends!

well, this is one of the songs that i have been focusing on which is by Reuben Morgan,,,,HEAR OUR PRAISES

"may our homes be filled with dancing
may our streets be filled with joy.
may injustice bow to Jesus
as the people turn to pray.

from the mountains to the valleys
hear our praises rise to You,
from the heavens to the nations
hear our singing fill the air.

may Your light shine in the darkness
as we walk before the cross
may Your glory fill the whole earth
as the water o'er seas.

from the mountains to the valleys
hear our praises rise to You,
from the heavens to the nations
hear our singing fill the air.

hallelujah.hallelujah
hallelujah,hallelujah...
hallelujah,hallelujah
hallelujah,hallelujah.......(x3)

from the mountains to the valleys
hear our praises rise to You,
from the heavens to the nations
hear our singing fill the air."



We really need to sing praises to him and to be blessed we need to be a blessings so why not start now?!?


GOD BLESS

Saturdays

Hey everyone,
Today has been really a long day in which i started waking up at 5.30am to go to school...i mean who would go to school so early but it was kind of a must for me cause my literature teacher wanted to me to go for the literature festivals in which there was a set text debate and unseen poetry debate and i went and had to help both teams do their prep case which was tough for me cause i thought that it wasn't going to happen like this but i was wrong....Well, i was told to help each member and tell each one of them on their roles and i though of sleeping on my bus journey there but thanks to the first time debators who were very nervous, i had to tell them detailed instructions and i was really very tired!!!!!

We arrived at PLMGS and then we realised that the unseen poetry debate was supposed to be prepared but thanks to our teacher, we won't even told and resulted in the 4 of us to go mad and we had to prep our case immediately within the time limit of about 1 and a half hours and that was really challenging cause even myself, i didn't go through this before!!!
Well, we managed to have a amusing and funny debator which was Shervin. He stood up and he had 4 books on the table and he was taking up and throwing the book on table after every point he said cause we kept on passing him the points and it was really funny!!!

Well, in the end we came in 2nd for the debate and we were well organised for our structures speeches and that was considered good for prep time for 1 and a half hour!!!! CONGRATS TEAM!!!!

anyway, after the debates, i went to do my RND with my group and finally after many weeks, we completed our final products and we hope that we would succeed!!!

Apart from that, i am looking forward to a new week for there are many exciting things coming up and really i am excited over them!!!!!

See ya around people,
BEET ROOT!!!!

Returning to the past you know

Hey people....

Today was really kind of a long day with all the lessons and also my lessons outside like my piano lessons which my exams are coming in 3 weeks time and its really a pressure but i found out that if i practice, it would be perfect and also praying for me to get a good grade and in the end, progress on to the next grade which would be GRADE8!!! =D

Well, i have finally wrote finish my 4th song for my band and i really feel encouraged and on fire for GOD to keep on going, writing songs to praise and worship him! Now is the time! After hearing to Delirious? songs, it really impacted me especially the song TAKE OFF MY SHOES...
i decided that i place the lyrics down... (:

Take Off My Shoes

I’ll take off my shoes, I’m coming in,
Untie this rope, I’m staying with him,
Love of my life, I’ll live and die,
Just for the moments for my king and I.

Why did you call, why did you wait,
For someone so guilty, someone so fake.
There are no words for my beautiful song,
Now I’m in the arms of my beautiful one.

Hold me, blow all the pride from my bones,
With your fire.
Hold me, breathe on this heart made of stone,
Keep it pure.
Hold me, saviour of heaven and earth,
King forever.
Hold me, love of my life lead me on,
Through the fire, lead me on...

I’ll take off this crown and fall at your feet,
The secret of joy are the moments we meet.
How could a man with all of your fame,
Pull me from darkness and call me by name.

So hold me today, as I carry your cross,
Into the desert to find who is lost.
Look at my hands, they’re still full of faith,
God keep them clean till we finish the race.

The time has come for us to stand in the gap and make the difference!


Back to school life,
i received my geography test today and i was shocked to see my marks because it was way different from before (either improving or deproving...), but i heard i did quite well for my E MATHS paper so i guess there isn't nothing to worry about now!
Well, its back to writing songs and i will see ya people later!!

Bertram!!!

REVOLUTIONARY GENERATIONZ

Well, since FMSS TALENT QUEST, i have been really challenged to carry on with creating music with my band "REVOLUTIONARY GENERATIONZ"

We have come up with a few composed songs and i am sure it will really be cool cause its rocking time!
Right now, i feel myself doing many types of work which causes me to think really alot right now at this very moment! Things such as school work, projects, and also most importantly to serve god!

Right now, i am currently writing my 3rd song for my band and its really coming out perfectly. Every word is significant and it represents a theme for each song. I pray that it would really come in hady for those of you out there who will be listening to the songs and I pray that you will be impacted by the words and draw closer to GOD!

Well,
this is all for now!

See ya soon!!!
