My faithful Father, enduring Friend
Your tender mercy’s like a river with no end
It overwhelms me, covers my sin
Each time I come into Your presence
I stand in wonder once again

CHORUS:
Your grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
Each day I fall on my knees
Your grace still amazes me
‘Cause Your grace still amazes me

Oh, patient Saviour, You make me whole
You are the Author and the Healer of my soul
What can I give You, Lord, what can I say
I know there’s no way to repay You
Only to offer You my praise

It’s deeper, it’s wider
It’s stronger, it’s higher
It’s deeper it’s wider
It’s stronger, it’s higher
than anything my eyes can see

Your Grace Still Amazes Me - Philips Craig and Dean

what would this week bring?

everyday a new episode?

am i making the most out of every opportunity?

or am i letting slip what could have become a significant moment in someone's life or even mine.

Lord
i don't really know what to say or what to expect
the heart is heavier than usual
and the tears are at the brink
but help me to trust in your unfailing love for those you have called to be your children.
for me and for him.
Amen

for the whole day, today

and i've been online for such a long time; i feel dorky

at least i changed my bedsheets (finally!)
and ironed my clothes (finally!)
and rested (finally!)

researching for some drama themes for the upcoming mission trip,
and i stumbled onto www.onetimeblind.com
normal people, doing normal things to bring the Truth of God's word to the rest of the world, normally!
well, at least through art and drama
their scripts are so honest and so, down-to-earth
i think, i'm going to "learn" something from them.

it's almost 12.30am
i really should stop whatever, sleep and be early for church tmr.

one two, buckle my shoe

three four, please no more.

strike 3, and he's out..again.

Lord,
your ways are higher than my ways
your thoughts higher than my thoughts
help me to see through the mud and the mire
through the deception and the disappointments
that You are soverign,
and circumstances notwithstanding,
we will still worship You

of a place not my own! at least until tuesday

while at it, i'm having a little retreat
first, by myself
and then my little pal's gonna come over

first night tonight
and i feel a little lonely
animal planet, the whirring air-con noises, and my fingers on the keyboard talk back to me

on to explore this little abode
and too keep it speak expand!

tired

is all i can say

busy busy, how you kill me!

Saturday, October 11, 2008

ah hah, busy busy.

i can't remember the last time i actually snuggled in bed, before sleep.

bedtimes these days (i'd quantify the length of time, except i can't even remember how long it's been!) see me in these few situations; sleeping on the cold hard floor, half-curled in bed with my specs and lights on, in my day's clothes and grime, and that's how i call sleep these days.

if i heard anyone living the kind of life i'm living, i'd tsk tsk tsk and try to give some advice on setting priorities, being organised, learning to say no, developing proper time management...

tsk tsk tsk indeed.

lemme just chug ahead, to at least, to the next train station and hopefully, there will be fewer passengers so it's not so heavy.

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Philippians 2:3-4

  • micro management is better off staying as micro as possible in my life.
  • people do bully P platers on the road.
  • as if brushing against her sidemirror is not enough, salt burned the wound when finger-pointing came from friends
  • having 2 concurrent events, and both seemingly important and the decision was made, because of a fishmonger
  • zitty zit zits. sigh
God, thank you i'm alive today, despite the nerves that were frazzled, pride that was hurt, fists that were clenched, because you know better and tomorrow, if it happens, will be a brand new day of your unceasing mercies and love.

hope looks forward.

aka, the ultimate poo day.

not a pretty day, nor sight for my toilet bowl and urm, my bedsheet.

i totally asked for it when i asked for a trimmer tummy, maybe i should specify the method in receiving it.

my greatest challenge now is to stand up and not feel like fainting.

Lord, make me well okay?

28.08.2008

the day they added more P plate drivers on the road to terrorise and annoy every single driver, with their panic brake moments, sharp swerves, and sudden accelearations..at least until 28.08.2009.

i passed my driving test! *prouds*

thank you God! despite the tester who seemed to carry a dark cloud over his head, and the leg that kept threatening to numb up on the clutch, and my trembling hands! despite all that. i got through the test with 18 points! hurrah!

seeya on the roads, honk honk.

oh wait, i'd need a car first.

one of these things

Thursday, August 21, 2008

there are some things that goes against the grain of what you naturally do, but you know it's the right thing to do

there are some things which doesn't make any sense, but it's the threshold of something good

there are some things you tell others to do, but tighten up when you get into the same boat as them

there are some things you do, just because He's done it before and so can you.
