Woke up. Took a shower. Picked up by Annie.
Bought lunch. Head to Jack's. Gave Him lunch.
Watched Akiane's artworks and a CNN interview.
In awe of God's work in this 13-year-old prodigy.
I was blown away.
Actually before we got to Jack's, Annie started to talk to me about anointing. Her words hit me hard, in a good way. Yes, I really do see my calling to become a worshipper, and I really want to have that anointing. I want to go see those worshippers who have the anointing that people would be filled by the Holy Spirit as soon as the music starts. God won't You anoint my mind, heart, and hands! I really did not expect to be put at this position in charge of worship starting 2008, yet after talking with Annie I really felt the burden of being at the position.
God, I want to seek after Your heart and love You with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Would Your Holy Spirit just lead me during worship and teach me how to lead. Lord please guard my heart. I need Your protection as well. God would You guide me and let me meet those who have the anointing and let me even have a part of their anointing. Lord I want to be like Elisha, leaving EVERYTHING behind just to go after the anointed lifestyle of Elijah. God that's how I long for the anointing of worship. Lord I will pray for Your Spirit to come everytime I start to worship. Being up there holds a tremendous responsibility to bring down Your presence to Your children. Oh God may the notes I play and sing please Your ears. God I want the kind of worship that would bring healing to this generation! Yet without You I cannot. God I want to use this year to go after that anointing. And I will not stop until I receive it. Would You hear my cry. My commitment this year would be to find a piano and play for 2 hours straight twice a week--just worship You and You alone. I want to feel Your presence from the first note until the last. God would You show me the worship up there by the angels? Does my worship resound with Heaven's noise?
God I want to know Your plan for me in this year for I really do not know whether transfering is Your plan for me or not. I will spend time to listen.
Lord I want to have the spirit of David!

actually yes i did see it. nearly a week ago. i totally forgot about it. too much stuff to think about ya know? anyways, yeah i was pretty impressed by the painting. it was like she saw Jesus in her visions and dreams. i love it! xD
i'm going to pray for the writing conference. even though it might be late, i might still have a chance. i'mma pray real hard about it. ^_^ ..
haha was the reason why you asked sala if she wanted you to take her home was because she was one of the people who teased you about the whole license thing? i wanted to ask you earlier, but there was no opening for me to do so. so yea..
