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

Lord, i thank you.
today was an awesome day.
I believe that you've a reason for everything that happens,
and I trust that you'll bring me through,
especially through the lowest points of my life.
I know you'll be there.
I just wished I was stronger,
that I could deal with things better,
and also, that I don't have to deal with some.
I thank you for my cell group,
for capable dx, for the supportive core members, for my wonderful cell members,
I believe you've a great plan for every single one of us,
that we'll all grow spiritually,
support and help each other out,
use our talents to glorify your name,
and be a family of Christ.
I have so many expectations of our cell group,
so much love for them,
I want to give my all,
to bring revival to our church, social circle, Singapore, and eventually,
we can conquer the world.
I don't think there is any mountain too high,
and dream too impossible,
for you Lord.
I trust, and know, with my heart.
There are problems in my life,
you know them,
my deep dark secrets,
that I never want to share.
I may appear happy and carefree on the outside,
but I feel so weighed down by certain things, that I will never say,
and indeed, I am not who they see.
I don't know how to ask for help from you,
maybe I'm wrong, okay I am,
but I just want a way out.
please just bless me.
I cannot be a leader in church,
yet be so ungodly out of church,
please remove the dark parts of my life.
I am so overwhelmed by school,
my life is slowly ebbing away,
and I think I can't cope.
Lord, please be with me,
bless me with wisdom and determination,
to excel in my studies.
I want to glorify your name, to be a reflector of Christ, wherever I am,
I want to be different.
and Lord,
I will give my Sundays to you,
I will give my life to you,
I will always remember the final goal I am pressing towards,
I will nurture the sheep you have put under my care,
I will tell the world about you.
thankyouuuu.

Been away from this space for ages.
and my relationship with God seems to model the ebb and flow of tides;
but the Lord has been good, as always.
I always feel so inadequate, so undeserving, of His love,
yet at the same time, terrified that He may pull away from me.
I better buck up.
Currently, is a transitional period of my life.
A levels ended, collection of results, applications for universities with interviews, preparation for university, whilst in the midst included with work and fun.
And now, an entirely new phase of my life --- university.
I was so excited to finally get the gears of my brain working all over again,
to meet new friends, and find a purpose to my life.
but of course, life loves to give us a whammy in our face every now and then,
just that I didn't think it would come so soon. :/
I'm really glad I finally got into law school,
now I guess maybe it's really my calling.
I really hope that I'll be able to be a tool for God,
that I can use the talents He gave me to do His work, for His glory.
School's barely past the first week and I have TONS of work to do.
but sometimes, I think I ain't too worried,
because I feel like no matter what happens,
I have a rock wall of God behind me to support me.
It's my birthday today,
and if I can get 3 wishes,
I would pray for:
1. Dean's list for 4 years of my university life
2. that I can be a reflector of Christ wherever I am
3. bless my family and my church.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." --Jeremiah 29:11 Amen.
