how to re-ignite the days of high school...

Take my life I lay it down
At the cross where I am found

Take my hands, and make them clean
Keep my heart in purity

Regarding work,
gg project I pray has built a strong foundation for my future career... the technical side of things, the theoretical and the actual practicality of delivering a preso.
also realising mi capacity to scope out free stuff. lets see... free pens, water, apples, bananas, coke, solo, juice, biscuits, notepads, pens, highlighters, colour printing, binding, web-surfing, valuation models and pitches (uhh dno if that counts), access to financial websites (hmmm...), calls, towel-use and showers, SANDWICHES lol!... oh deutsche bank sandwiches i dare not even look at you, sailing trips, taxi rides, lunchtime seminars, PA help, sweet rich danishes, db usbs, db time glasses, coffee...
"oh I forgot you guys were students" responds HR to our exploitation of freebies. haha pardon me.

few notes on camp,
sin will keep you from prayer, prayer will keep you from sin - wow really a reality I'm discovering
Pro 22:11 "He who loves purity of heart and has grace on his lips... the King will be his friend". Purity! huge one
sharing that testimony... it really is powerful. Would be honoured for once person to be changed by it and learn more about God in their own life...
Worshipping, meaning those words... but yeah letting go in at outflow of praise. can't help myself haha
liked that notion of not being able to outgive God... like when Jesus feeds 5000, nice effort for the random dude to offer all he has... he wouldn't have thought the result would be so substantial and abundant

speaking in a few weeks to oughta get ready for that

looking forward to adjusting back to uni life but not completely. like certainly like to keep my sleep patterns under control. praying more and focusing on fitness - can bike ride regularly again. probably read and tap into more of God's wisdom / knowledge of the Bible (application a key there)

11 more days left I believe... gonna be a blast. can lap up the freedom for the week before uni.. and uni won't be that bad, 3 hours compared to 50+? haha

This day He came in the stillness of a manger
Born by the Spirit to save man from their sin
His name is Jesus
Saviour
The Christ
The King

This day we celebrate in the stillness of our hearts
That we're reborn again into God's family and free from sin
He is our God
Saviour
The Christ
The King

Music to the ears of all of God's people
A sweet sounding melody that brings hope to all
He sets the world in motion
We worship
We honour
We glorify

Merry Christmas

just an unstructured unwinding of my mind's infrastructure

Can't stand...
-being belittled
-finding myself in a position of guilt that seems unwarranted
-100% criticism, 0% praise
-hypocrisy
-defensiveness

Can't get enough of...
-being treated like an adult and being valued
-feeling no condemnation or guilt, to a reasonable extent
-constructive criticism. acknowledgement is cool but not as important as getting feedback, always wanna be learning.
-consistency (not consistent hypocrisy though)
-acceptance when you're in the wrong

as far as when the former occurs, these are things i consciously would like to be more discerning of when they occur such that i can react in a more patient and measured manner, a Christ-like manner ultimately.

other things... i'm desiring to
-experience more victory in personal areas of sin.
-worship with my heart more so. that said, recent occasions of leading worship have been an absolute blast. can't rmbr feeling so much freedom and joy. as i have received him, let me now walk in Him with a faithful and true reflection of His ways.
-live by love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control... the last two look like a good place to start with me.

Entering into another new season. Can't wait.
