it's all about YOU

Impressive Arrangers & ...what if

Wednesday, May 23, 2007

After 4 musician practices, songs like Live This Life, Let The Saints, You Are My Desire and others came alive.

I'm not a pro in music n its technicalities.. but the music arrangements are like what pasta sauce is to spaghetti, cream to a cake. It surprises, delights, and gives definition to the song lyrics, excites musical taste buds that you never knew existed.

haha. like, really nice lorr!!

i like the piano intro by Samuel in You Are My Desire, i like the energy in Live This Life.
so many "i likes"..

Good work, song arrangers and musicians, I can't wait for the end result of the arrangement as it develops and evolve further. The best is yet to be. :)

heh, better check on the progress of the vocalists next week, i passed by the corridor last sat mornin' and it sounds wonderful!

This splendid track 1 that u're listening now is "What If" by Jadon Lavik.

Have you ever wonder will God love you less? or more?
Does God love the pastor or cell leaders more than He loves you?
Will God still die for you if you're the only person on this round, watery planet?

Ever stereotyping God into your own mold? Thinking that He has an "all-powerful and wouldn't care less if you die" attitude? Maybe this time, after the many times, He won't forgive you again? Hmm.. or God doesn't want you to bother him with your little needs - tomorrow's exam, the guy or girl you liked, the new pimple, the mind that doesn't absorb knowledge well, the game level that is impossible to win, the spiritual life that stubbornly refused to grow, the finger nail that chipped off?

Hey, God, do you love me? I mean, really, love me?

What If (by Jadon Lavik)

What if I climbed that mountain? What if I swam to that shore?
What if every battle was victorious? Then would You love me more?
Would You love me more?
What if I were everyone’s first choice? What if I went farther than before?
What if I stood high above the rest? Then would You love me more?
Would You love me more?

You say I belong to You, apart from the things I do
You say I belong to You, I’m in awe of why You do
Why You do, why You do, I’m in awe of You, ooh

What if I ignored the hand that fed me? What if I forgot to confess?
What if I stumbled down that mountain? Then would You love me less?
Lord, would You love me less?

What if I were everyone's last choice? What if I mixed in with the rest?
What if I failed what I passed before? Then would You love me less?
Lord, would You, would You love me less, oh no, oh no, oh no

You say I belong to You, apart from the things I do
You say I belong to You, I’m in awe of why You do
You do, You do, You do

What have I done to deserve your Son sent to die for me?
What can I give? I want to live, give me eyes to see
In a world that keeps changin’ there’s one thing that I know is true
Your love is stayin’, there’s nothing else I’ll hold onto

You say I belong to You, apart from the things I do
You say I belong to You, I’m in awe of why You do
Why You do

The way You love me, the way You do
The way You do , the way You love me, You love me, You love me
The way You do, the way You do, the way You love me,
the way You love, You love, You love

God is love.
(1 John 4:8,16)

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
(1 Cor 13:4-8)

And since God is love and loves us so much, by sending his son for us. He is also..

Patient and kind to you..
Not proud before you..
Not rude to you..
Wants the very best for you..
Not easily angered with you..
Keeps no record of your wrongs when you confess and repent..
Rejoices when you learn and walk in his truth..

Always protects you..
Trusts you..
Gives you hope and runs with you..

God never fails to love you.

How important are you to him?

He took great care in creating you while you are in your mother's womb, he laid the path for your whole life even before you were born. He took notice when you sit and rise, and every little thing you do. His hands are always with you, protecting, motivating, leading.
(Psalm 139)

"You are the apple of my eye"
(Deut 32:10)

The things He did for you in the past, the work He is doing in your life now, the plans He has for you in the future.

All for love

Like a parent who loved the child during infancy, adolescent, adulthood..

God loves you, no matter how old are you; if you are as immature and insecure as an infant, as rebellious and disobedient like a problem teenager, as lost and dissatisfied as an adult having mid-life crisis.

So in respond to his love,
will you come before him once again, for today?
will you spend a little more time talking to him today?
will you talk to someone about his gospel of love today?
will you surrender your heart and let him guide you today?
