Holdin' on

A new year, a new name. Yeap, I've changed the name of my blog. 'My Not-So-Soapy-Soap Opera' is now officially 'Holding on to His promises'. Mainly because I'm holding on tight to God's promises for me. Ain't ever gonna let go of Him. But also because I totally lived a very VERY Soapy Soap Opera last year, which makes the name so not suitable anymore. Heh.

But lets get back to the sentence before the sentence before this sentence - Ain't ever gonna let go of Him. I suppose in actual fact it's Him who's not letting go of me. And I praise Him that it's this way because I probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for very long. Yeah, if it were me doing the holding we'd most likely be continents apart by now. Heh, galaxies apart, even.

It's a great feeling, you know, being held by Him. And He knows me. He knew, no, He KNOWS me so well that He was able to write my autobiography even before I was born. Autobiographies are, as you know, books wirtten about people (mostly important people) after their lives have been lived and they've done something super important that warrants their days to be imortalized in paper (unless we decide to burn books...)

Psalm 139 v 13-16
For you created my innermost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fewrfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
Your eyes saw my unformed body.
All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

But Imagine! .....to have Him pen out my autobiography even before I was born. Boy! Even before I did important stuff. Even before I did anything at all!

And there's this to consider. The bestselling author, the guy who has His book in the top selling list every year, without fail, is writing my autobiography.

Awesome leh......
