the day before

May 8th, 2006

Well, it's the day before my board exam, and all I can say is that God has been more than amazing.
He has literally been my Everything and my One Strong Tower amidst a truly difficult last week. PTL!

This morning, in the gym, while i was doing the shoulder press, Steven Curtis Chapman's song
"Magificent Obsession" was playing. It literally stopped me in my tracks.

Truly my heart's desire:

"Return me to the Cross, let me be completely lost...
Cut through these chains that tie me down to so many lesser things
let all my dreams fall to the ground, until this one remains...

This is everything I want, this is everything I need
I want this to be my one consuming passion
Everything my heart desires, Lord I want it all to be
all for you, Jesus,
be my Magificent Obsession...."

I love you Jesus,
