Today, in my vocal class, we learnt this song, Refiner's Fire. The part of the song that caught my attention was the verse, 'Purify my heart' The teacher asked us this 3 questions, 1.What is the overall mood/atmosphere of the song? 2.Were there certain lines that made an impression on you? 3.What is the core message of the song?
The first part of the verse, Purify my hear, those three words alone means alot.. I just thought about how unworthy I am and I feel like as we sing the song, I just felt brokeness and surrender.. And the teacher also told us about gold, Its first contains alot of layers of dirt and stuff and the refiner has to put the gold in the fire and let the layer melt, than take it out and throw away that unusable layer and put it in the fire again and again until he can see his face reflected on the gold.. Doesn't this sound like someone we know? With His eyes always on the gold to make sure the heat is just right and as we live, we'll go through many layers of life and slowly we will reflect more of our creator in our life!
Purify my heart Let me be as gold and precious silver Purify my heart Let me be as gold, pure gold
Refiner's fire My heart's one desire Is to be holy Set apart for You, Lord I choose to be holy Set apart for You, my Master Ready to do Your will
Purify my heart Cleanse me from within And make me holy Purify my heart Cleanse me from my sin Deep within
Cleanse me LORD, Purify me heart..

Superlife retreat
Monday, February 18, 2008
Ah... Sry for the long period of no update.. Anyway, on Saturday, Superlife had a retreat.. It was cool and I was really touched by the message! It was really good! The speaker was City Harvest's childrens Pastor.. One of the cool parts was that they started with 60+ kids and now they have 9000 Kids! The lunch provided was nice too! After the whole retreat, I just felt different! Dear LORD Jesus, I don't ever wanna lose this touch from you LORD! I wanna grow stronger in you God! Take away all my fears LORD! In the name of Jesus, Amen!
"You are the light of the world.
let your light shine before men,
that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."
