To quote Starfield, I'm a revolution

People as they were standing up in praise
It has been hours ago after I've been fired-up by the Canadian Christian band, Starfield and being there inside the Rose Memorial Auditorium of our campus, jumping to the music with my heart on worship-mode, I could just thank the Lord for the opportunity to be praising God with Ilonggos.

But what really was my highlight during the two-hour experience aside from being able to meet them and see them before the concert, was how God spoke to me through their song. It was through the lyrics of "Revolution" when the reality of the harshness of life to followers of Christ yet still choosing to operate out of love, not out of some sheer desire to prove that I could live better than you do dawned upon me. These were the words:

I will rise above
I will live for love
I will answer to the call
For the bond between
For the depth unseen
For my God forsake it all

'Cause I'm a fire
I'm a flood
I'm a revolution
I am a war
Already won
I'm a revolution

Indeed, my God forsook all the favor by the people by living beyond the norms. Even Paul led uprising wherever He was led by the Lord since the message that He carried wasn't supposed to make people feel good. It's supposed to be something to lead people out of their normal lifestyle and pursue a relationship different that what they have heard, experienced or imagined.

It was just an eyeopener to me. 
And yeah, about the Starfield concert, I might post some details about it soon. Buhbye for now. :D

refresh, renew, rename, remake.

It was when I started to think about sharing my life to people and living out my purpose when I finally decided to be serious about blogging.
This is a new post, after I have remade this blog to signify a new start for me.
There had been a series of questions I asked God about this, yet there had been confirmations and motivations that I got along the way. Hence, this.

There's a big world out there, this is a first step.
