This week has been cool... i have spent it working, hanging on the street with friends, and hanging with my half sister. This past week has been the most that i have spent with my half sister... ever. It has been good.

However, i have lost my camera and my wallet within a week(camera thurs, wallet tues)... which has been really annoying and made it really easy to focus on the negative situation of losing things.

I had to make a conscious decision to focus on the good part of the week, and more importantly to focus on God, my Heavenly Father.

Today after i realised i had lost my wallet, after i searched everywhere that i could, after i cancelled my cards, i turned on some music and spent some time worshipping God and spending some time with Him.

The first song was blessed be His Name by matt redman (words below). I found it true, that we can Bless the name of the Lord, in good times, in times of joy, not only that, but also in times of lost, sadness, darkeness, suffering... basically we can choose to bless the Name of the Lord no matter what is going on around us... And when we do, it all just fades away, as we focus on Christ. It is like when i am not wearing my glasses (i wear them to see long distance), when talking to people, every thing else is blurred and out of focus, and the person i am talking to is in focus, so it is easy not to get distracted by things that are going on around.

It's awesome

Blessed be Your name In the land that is plentiful Where Your streams of abundance flow Blessed be Your name And blessed be Your name When I'm found in the desert place Though I walk through the wilderness Blessed be your name		Chorus Every blessing You pour out I'll Turn back to praise And when the darkness closes in, Lord Still I will say Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be Your name When the sun's shining down on me When the world's "all as it should be" Blessed be You name And blessed be Your name On the road marked with suffering Though there's pain in the offering Blessed be Your name		Chorus
You give and take away You give and take away My heart will choose to say Lord, blessed be Your name I will bless Your name		Chorus
Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your name Blessed be the name of the Lord Blessed be Your glorious name		You give and take away You give and take away My heart will choose to say Lord, blessed be Your name *Repeat*
