Day 100 : Hillsong United Manila : Losing Myself in Praise



Oh how amazing it feels to be standing there, right there, no words can suffice.

I've waited so long for this, and finally, finally it's happening!!! I couldn't believe it, it all seemed like a memory from a dream.

When the lights went out and they started to play, tears started to form in my eyes. I couldn't believe it! All these years I've been wanting to be in that crowd of believers, losing ourselves in praise and just glorifying Him through music. For a moment it felt like I was Rapunzel - all these years, wanting to see the lights up close, wanting to know how it feels like to finally see them, up close.

Oh yes, I did see the lights. . .

. . . and it was breathtaking, to see the stars right in front of you. I couldn't believe it. But there I was, being a witness to my own dream that has finally come alive. And almost in every song, my tears couldn't stop falling. I was in complete surrender, and it felt as if He was standing right in front of me. I couldn't stop smiling.

Today I felt completely stripped off everything I was that had haunting memories and pain from the past that built a sturdy wall that is trying to make me cold. Love. I was just completely filled with love. I can't explain how beautiful, how wonderful it feels and how it happened but, it all just makes perfect sense.

It's my dream to lead people into worship, through my music, and today - I had a glimpse of how it feels like to be in the crowd, to be lead into worship. I had a glimpse of losing myself in praise, losing myself in music, losing myself in Jesus - and these are the things I think I would be needing when my dream will finally come true one day. One day. Someday.

Ahhh I am so elated, I still can't believe it! :')

I'd relive every moment again, and again, and again.

The aftermath, is more than enough to last until the next concert. . .

:')
