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

Luke 12:48, "From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded;
and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked."
I think I have been given much.
There may been low periods in my life, but the darkness never lingers for long.
God has always been there for me, bringing me through, and giving me things He feels are best for me.
Of course, I've cried hard at times, though rare,
but God always reminds me that He is there to share my burden and wipe away my tears,
and I really believe, that whatever happens, He has a greater plan for me.
Actually, I'm very thankful to God,
many people tend to ask God for things they want in their lives,
and of course, I do too,
but I don't think I ever insisted strongly,
or blamed God on why He is not responding or why He allowed horrible things to happen to me,
because I believe God does things in His time,
and truly, He is the only one who knows best.
Many times, I just pray and surrender my troubles to God,
and I let Him have the final say.
Even if things may seem to be irreversibly negative, it doesn't really matter,
because these earthly things really don't matter, the time God finally brings us back to Heaven.
I think in this verse, God wants to remind me,
that He gave me certain gifts in life,
not for me to waste them by misusing them and doing whatever I wish,
but for me to use them for His glory.
My A levels are just around the corner,
and I must admit, I am still not putting in my best foot forward.
I am unable to curb my temptations of using the computer, sleeping or sloth,
and there's really not much time left.
We only have one chance in life,
and I know I can't waste it like that.
Lord, I just pray that you grant me wisdom, strength, the ability to remember what is necessary for the exams, and the will to not yield to temptations,
I promise I shall do my very best,
and I won't let you down.
