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

i'm so sad :(
i got a B-. i looked at it many times, in disbelief.
but things won't change.
why am i so stupid? my scholarship, how?
could it be due to my expressed lack of faith in God
and my horrible laziness?
sigh. i really don't know how.
it seems like i have lost my motivation, too.
bad time.
as i wallow in my sorrows, the things i have to do are piling up.
i so wanna quit school.
In psalms 119:71-72, "It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your decrees. The law from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold."
i guess in life, we suffer hard knocks now and then.
it's unbearable, and you feel like you're falling apart, breaking down into pieces,
but is it possible to learn from them?
perhaps it may be hard to swallow the idea of the believer learning from painful and difficult circumstances in life, and value the Word of God,
but i realize whenever i'm weak and down, i run back to God, always.
He gives me strength, every time.
"Here is my servant whom I have chosen, the one I love, in whom I delight;
I will put my Spirit on him, and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
He will not quarrel or cry out; no one will hear his voice in the streets.
A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out, till he leads justice to victory.
In his name the nations will put their hope."
-- Matthew 12: 18-21
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." --James 1:2
-4
Will I be able to stay strong through it all,
will I be able to get through this?
Lord, be with me.
