240306

verses read: Jeremiah 30
prayer: 5 minutes

Finally; an entire portion of the book that isn’t all doom and gloom. This is a chapter of great comfort; and my heart even now feels comforted just by reading it. Read something I didn’t want to read, but well, I can’t do anything about it. Well; vows are vows and this one is worth keeping.

Had my honours project presentation today. The presentation itself was okay, save for parts that I had to omit due to some fallacies in my proofs. But, the interview was a killer; was stuck with the two Profs for a good 75 minutes. And I left quite shaken as I took such a long time in answering some of their questions. Was even shaking during my workout in the gym after that; had a huge dinner after that to drown my sorrows.

Am leading worship this Sunday. Have the honour of being the first to lead worship in this new hall. But then, how do you lead worship this Sunday? On a Sunday when the mood in church will be very sombre. I guess we all can take comfort in the knowledge that death is not the end of life; just a break. We go to a place where sickness will no longer exist.

Bought another new album this week; Graham Kendrick’s “Do something beautiful”. It’s a very fresh sound from him, and very inspiring, including a complete re-arrangement of “O for a thousand tongues”. Feel very inspired now after listening to “Facedown” and this album.
