As little children we would dream of Christmas morn Of all the gifts and toys we knew we’d find But we never realized a baby born one blessed night Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
As the years went by we learned more about gifts The giving of ourselves and what that means On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain All because of love
I finally found the reason for living It’s in giving every part of my heart to Him And all that I do every word that I say I’ll be giving my all just for Him
We are the reason that He gave His life We are the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live
Seeing how i havent blogged in months, i decided i need a warm up lap, like in the Grand Prix.
On Moving Home
It's home sweet home sweet home in 16 days and 7 hours (i know the countdown down to the seconds cuz i have a countdown timer on my desktop, which i try not to look at - i have too much to do in the next 16 days). I am looking fwd to going home... starting a new chapter and for the first time in my life drawing a regular salary! Big leap into... the wilderness! But I'm not afraid cuz I have God's promises and my posessions waiting for me!
On TV
I watch too much TV here. I watch horror films now! I can bear to look at the bad guys getting stabbed (was watching some high school massacre) but not the unsuspecting good guys. I go "yeah, smack him, harder! Hit him on the head! yeah!" for the bad eggs but i really cant bear to see the innocent get knifed. Do u experience the same thing?
On Grace and the Beauty of my Lord God, Abba Father!
My day started off really crap. I locked myself up in the room, prayed and cried. I know a day like this would continue being shite! But THANK GOD, PRAISE GOD that it turned around sooo sooo well.
Immediately after i felt the HS's calmness come upon me and stopped crying, I received a call from Rocher and he had asked me to quickly get changed cuz he was going to come back home to pick me up for lunch. I felt like saying no, but i went and from there on, my day just went sooo soo smoothly.
The bit that touched my girly heart were the things Rocher said to me... and reaffirmation of his unchanging love for me.
Then Jiaching came along... hmm not in that way. He literally came by my house to bring me dinner. And a little cupcake he promised me MONTHS BACK (ahem, jc abit late huh.... just kidding! i was so touched!). Nomads LG is so blessed to have such mature and loving LG leaders. Every exam period, when we get stressed and dun know what to eat or dun even know whether to cook... our LG leaders come around with packed dinner for all of us. This time around RUTH cooked! Thanks Ruth, you A GEM, such a great woman of God. I remember talking to Ruth about bfs and relationships on the O-Bahn... and she recently got attached to a great man so PRIASE GOD!
On Upcoming Weddings!
One of the reasons why im rushing back after my exams instead of staying for the December Grad Ceremony is because of Jessie and Rebecca's weddings! Weddingsss ok... not the famous Ellen ♥♥ Portia type wedding. Oh in fact, on the day of Rebecca's wedding, I have Cheryl's wedding to attend too.
I've been blessed and given the honour to be my cousin's jiemei and personal coordinator for the day! Her handphone will be with me all day.
"Hello, this is Jessie's mobile. Its her wedding today and she's occupied at the moment. How can I help you?" if im in a good mood. Otherwise, otherwise.
xxo everyone. For those in Singapore, expect the expected! muah. Love heaps!
My Jesus shaped vacuum has been activated. I feel dry from missing church. I feel empty being so far away from home church. I feel hungry. Like Ps Prince and many other pastors have said, when u don't listen to good sermons / don't do devotions / don't read the bible, you shouldnt feel guilty... u should be feeling hungry. And that is exactly how i feel right now.
And this song just nailed my hunger squarely in the stomach.
My heart longs For Your Love My soul thirsts For Your touch
There is no one like You God There is none like You
Nothing compares to You my God No one could ever take Your Love away You're my King, my everything Jesus
