God You’re amazing, Heavens declare
The Glory and power, none can compare
I look in wonder, all You have made
Oceans and mountains, speak of Your name

Creation shouts of You

Super strong God, You love me
Super strong God, You made everything
So beautiful

Hillsong Kids

i am strong, because my God is strong.
there is nothing i cannot overcome,
because my God has overcame all my fears and all.

how i wished i could go back to where i came from, always cheerful.
but because of this, i know i've grown,
and that You're calling me out to a new place.

nonetheless, i will rejoice always,
because i know i have You right where i am standing.

thank You Father :)

this song has been in my head all morning as i sleep.

[Mandy Moore]

There's a song that's inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold.
But you sing to me over and over and over again.

So, I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.

Sing to me the song of the stars.
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I know now, you're my only hope.

I give you my destiny.
I'm giving you all of me.
I want your symphony, singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs, I'm giving it back.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours, I pray, to be only yours
I pray, to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope.

i have no where to go,
except to stay in your arms,
and let your touch heal me from all my hurts.
only then i can soar and
guide the broken hearted to your loving grace.

:) this is what i got in a moment of inspiration, not from myself but God.

yeah. so on thurs i was busy doing stuff for Culture. but something happened, and it made my heart having this mixed feelings. i wanted someone whom i can tell this to, i hoped my "colleagues" treat me a little more kind and not do anything to add on to my pain. despite of asking my God to help me, i kinda question Him why is this thing happening to me.

after work, the guys and i went to play badminton. then i sat alone, with the rest one court away from me, looking at them and the people before me having their games. suddenly a voice from within told me that i should trust in God rather than on people. (only God can take away the pain. putting hope on people for joy, for remedy doesn't help, and it'll only deepen the cut on the heart.)-that was paraphrasing, i didn't thought of this much at that point of time. :)

i wanted to make sure it came from God, so i looked into the Word of God - Bible.

it is better to trust the Lord than to put confidence in people.
Psalm 118:8

*grins*

someone thought i was disappointed by my friends, but no, i am not. :)

i want to make the better choice, to trust in God. perhaps He is teaching me to make the better choice, so that i can be prepared for the future, in a place where i won't have my friends with me, but only God who would be with me to take care of my every needs.

...

okay, my result was out on fri. had a bad dream about the grade for my project, i got a G, ha. and it scared me out of my sleep. woke up and check my result. i got a C for the project module, yay! not really a good grade but if you know what happened to my project, you'll understand. for the other two modules i got B, yay! i have to say God has helped me though the exams.

first module: i got 50/100 for common test. and up till 1-2 weeks before the paper, i still couldn't understand what my lecturers were teaching about, and i missed the revision class, when the lecturer would give the study guide. thank God my helpful classmate was willing to share with me the points to study. and God helped me to spot questions. then the night before the paper, i hoped that God would not put the stuff which i know and those i don't know together in the same question, and it turned out the way. oh! and the lecturer actually sent us an email that contain questions from part of the paper and i only realised it on the night i had done the paper. so i can say God helped me, not the lecturer. :)

second module: ashamed to say, i missed lots of lectures, and the main part of my program did not work. but with God's grace, and i don't know how it happened, i got an B. :)

...

and then there was chi (pronounced as kai) zone outreach to areas around youth park. all i can say is God is doing amazing works at the peoples' lifes, as well as ours'. more details please refer to chi members' blog.

and alpha zone meeting, youth service, sunday service were all awesome.

i had a wonderful weekend!

what a long post.

yeah. again i was on my way to school for prayer group. i thought back and remembered what i told ben yesterday, about the outreach we are doing, only about 6 of us are doing most of the work, so i said this is OUR project. but he said the rest still can help us on the day of outreach, so it means the rest will still be part of this outreach when they join, even if they didn't help with the preparation. part of me thought it was unfair, but the other part of me thinks that his words do make some sense.

as i was still in my thoughts, this story Jesus told his disciples came to me ...

Matthew 20

“For the Kingdom of Heaven is like the landowner who went out early one morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay the normal daily wage and sent them out to work.

3 “At nine o’clock in the morning he was passing through the marketplace and saw some people standing around doing nothing. 4 So he hired them, telling them he would pay them whatever was right at the end of the day. 5 So they went to work in the vineyard. At noon and again at three o’clock he did the same thing.

6 “At five o’clock that afternoon he was in town again and saw some more people standing around. He asked them, ‘Why haven’t you been working today?’

7 “They replied, ‘Because no one hired us.’

“The landowner told them, ‘Then go out and join the others in my vineyard.’

8 “That evening he told the foreman to call the workers in and pay them, beginning with the last workers first. 9 When those hired at five o’clock were paid, each received a full day’s wage. 10 When those hired first came to get their pay, they assumed they would receive more. But they, too, were paid a day’s wage. 11 When they received their pay, they protested to the owner, 12 ‘Those people worked only one hour, and yet you’ve paid them just as much as you paid us who worked all day in the scorching heat.’
13 “He answered one of them, ‘Friend, I haven’t been unfair! Didn’t you agree to work all day for the usual wage? 14 Take your money and go. I wanted to pay this last worker the same as you. 15 Is it against the law for me to do what I want with my money? Should you be jealous because I am kind to others?’
16 “So those who are last now will be first then, and those who are first will be last.”

it didn't take much time for me to find this story, i found it when i opened my bible. ha.

my original motive for doing is outreach is to help others and i didn't thought of making a name for myself so that other's can know what i've done. but somehow, my mind got distorted and my heart became "impure".

i thank God for His reminder and teachings that has stopped me from having that ugly thought, and make me refocus on my original motive in doing His work.

hmmm. i feel that i need to say this...


to the many prayer groups out there! don't be so enthu about your schools' outreach yet be distracted by other stuff and get your focus messed up with impure desires. even if the outreach is a success, God will not be pleased because your heart is not with Him.

so yeah. hope my readers enjoy reading this and leave any comments you have any. ha. you don't have to if you don't want. i'm just joking. la la la. ha ha ha. i am crazy. :)

may all PG outreach be a success and God be pleased by the hearts of many!

when i was on the bus on the way to school for prayer group, i was reminded and disgusted by what i did in the past. i couldn't stop the images of memory running in my head, i wished to stop but for that moment i was stuck, i didn't try to do anything to stop my thoughts from running.

but God provided me a way out of this "temptation" i faced. i looked down at my bag, and the word "bible" came to my head. i smiled and decide to continued to read from where i stopped. immediately my head was filled with His word and not on other things.

i thanked God for His faithfulness as i remained faithful in Him.

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

yeah. if God has brought me out of the situation i faced, surely He will do the same for you, because there is no favouritism in His eyes.

:]
