Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

maybe i'm being selfish.
but i've gotten so used to getting what i want, that i don't see why people can't accommodate me all the time.
i often simplify what problems others may have, and just zoom in on what i want.
i guess i shouldn't be disregarding what others truly think or worry about, because we come from different backgrounds after all, and face different problems in life.
who am i to think i know it all?
at such times, i am a lousy friend, mean sister and horrible daughter.
but it really sucks to not get your way :(
on a side note, maybe i'm looking for l.
hopefully the right one comes along, and i don't pass it by.

many a times, we think about how we can do something better than others, or how we are superior in a certain area to others,
but human pride is something that can cause us to crumble and fall.
but most of the time, what we see in others or even ourselves, in actual fact, is through the perspective of a tainted glass. we see what we choose to see.
we can never second-guess God, his thoughts or his plans.
and besides, who are we to judge?
are we even better off ourselves?
it is at such moments of reflection, i grow very ashamed of myself. sometimes to the point, whereby i live in my own delusional world. because i don't want to look into the mirror and see my ugly self.
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me."

there are so many things i want to keep close to me always.
my friends and the memories i've had.
they really add a splash of colours to my otherwise mundane life.
but these things, they are going to fade away some day, won't they?
friends leave, and memories dissolve into nothingness.
and i'll eventually depart this world.
it's going to be sad, because i've had so much fun times here.
however, i know heaven's going to be more awesome than anything and everything i've ever known. and there, i'll finally reunite with my dearest heavenly Father.
TO HAPPIER TIMES, CHEERS :D

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." -Rev 21:4

Romans 12: 17-21
Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
When life is hard and i'm troubled, i run to You.
