Ephesians 1:18-20

New International Version (NIV)

18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms,

Spare

A sparing, doubtless sparing, high-end morale, just walked out of it without a scratch.  That very moment pitched you to a state of so called trauma, ended abruptly just like that.  Safety measures are those that kept you alive, His words are those that kept you in the walk, kept you out of doubt and fear, kept you fulfilling you purposes, and that’s worth much more than anything else.

Its half past ten driving along with cozy, breath-taking air, kept on reminiscing what happens past day, past weeks, even past months of my lives.  Never cross in my mind that something that is so struckful will ever happen.  Giving all hope and trust unto Him, I ended up abruptly, merely hanging on from that very fall, that very fall into the drain.  It’s just nerve catching and spins filled, pressurized by the blood that drains all over inside my vessels.  And suddenly, consciousness falling apart, tear away with no mercy, ended up balancing myself in the middle of nowhere, no cars, no traffics, no sounds, just the rolling of wheels, trance-state of mind wondering where am I at that moment of time………

Samaritans as described, apart from Jewish, God chosen people, with a heart full of compassions even we are the Gentiles, they are the Gentiles as well, oh gosh, just mere tears flowing down as the tracks of alphabets flowing along by my little fingers, they are those that pulled me out of that little mighty strong vehicle.  But the one that safe me is the one that is much more greater than all, for He has overcome the world, and is defending the victory just as you and I.  Angels do appear in our life, small and cute little angels, far away from those fairytales, far away from children tales telling by young adults sometimes, that actually blinded most of us and kept us from the truth, the way and the living One that lay down all His rights, literally stretching out His hands, saving those who are saved and yet to be saved, I do prefer the phrase yet to be rather than unsaved.

Laying down on bed, with green shirts and pyjamas-like pants, typical of ‘men’s hospital’, there am I, turning my head around, with a bit of what I had been diagnosed with, so called cerebral concussion, are those moaning sounds, sounds of life-sparing, sounds of pain oozing out from their very vocals, with imparted screws and metal plates, looks eerie to me that very moment and for the next day.  Finally, I got myself crawling out from the bed, to the nearby washroom, get myself a pee, a nice peeeeee……and I was discharged soon after I just about to enjoy the free stay…xD

A life sparing moment has just begun, a journey that will reminded you and me of His love, His mercy and His thoughts and ways in our very lives.  Moving on, as His words say, “Fear not, for I am with you, to the very end of the age.”.  Alex

Art of Sound

Despite all the talks and murmurings around about the so called ‘age of the geek’ stuff, pause for that for a moment and let the art of sound, the ding and the dang and the oozeness if there such a word, just to flow around and encircle the atmosphere to an extend of nurturing health and providing comfort.  Living in a tension-filled place and I don’t mean it specifically at your profession area or so called study discomfortness, but rather the general earthly place that we are born in, has given much haste to humanity pace of life.  The geek, jeez, blasting pick-a-tech quotes have in one way or other, tagging people to the fact that we are living in the end world now have certain way or other affect our daily thinking, actions and way of living.

From major keys and scales to minor ones, from pentatonic variation to some blues’ pattern scales, arpeggios, these theories in music have been founded and given much shot by major musicians throughout the world including the great Beethoven, flawless movement of scales by Maxim, and the jamming guy who inspires a lot of people in the world, Joe Satriani.  The blending of this art has been a perpetual succession and has given us a time for settling ourselves into a state of mind where it provides soothness and generates calmness in us. 

There’s cons to every major events and occasions in the temporary world we are living in now and that include the theory of the art of sound itself.  Some major singers, musicians, performers, dancers and some stage-controlling people have made a huge impact either in affecting people’s lives, their thinking and including installing an institution of so called faith elevating mood even if this lasted only from a range of 5 minutes to hours.  Not to mention their names or surnames, not to impart condemnation to people, things that they given to us through their so called famous outfits and a vast range of misleading act of faith acted upon the art of sound itself have much impacted people’s lives when they are in cars, working or for some students, have their own ear-stuffing gadget filled with those.  How bout some stage performers that had not been so eye catching until their demise were announced publicly to the world and caught so many people’s ears and their lives.   Some ‘lady’ or the famous ‘backdance’ that had given their vows to people through their astonishing performances have been a major songs that people listen to nowadays without realizing their real and truthful meaning as well as their internal impacts that will result in much ‘sufferings’ later in their lives.

The feelings of mundane and bored have surrounded me much even during this much anticipated holiday.  Somehow in times of despair, prayer and musics are a good blend and be in mind that not all musics are good, as simple as that.  The world might suggests to you a couple of ‘nice’ musics but don’t fall into those temptation as He will provide a way through for us if we just open our heart to trust Him, accepting what is good and shunt away from what is bad.  Whoosh, trigger fingers stuff had caught me for months, gonna relax and enjoy the so called ‘the art of music’.  Happy holiday to all.  Alex
