my response.

I love you, O LORD, my strength. (Psalm 18:1)

He is teaching me to wait. He's taking me through the refining fire, so that I may emerge stripped of pretension, of hypocrisy, of the subtle sin that so easily entangles. He's preparing me for Greater Works.

He tells me, "you are not alone, I am with you. Do not fear, just trust Me. And wait."

I'll wait in Him, I'll wait with Him.
True love waits. And I am in Good Hands.

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." (Proverbs 3:5,6)

Search me O God and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." (Psalm 139:23,24)

Kau sangat ku cinta

twenty more means : another twenty years of loving and serving Jesus, of laying down my life for His cause. Another twenty years, of not just life, but life in abundance.

Praise the Lord forevermore!

Bersyukur selalu bagi kasihMu di dalam hidupku
Takkan ku ragu atas rencanaMu 'tuk masa depanku
Sebagai Bapa yang baik, takkan pernah Kau melupakanku
Sebagai Bapa yang sangat baik, takkan pernah Kau meninggalkanku

Ku 'kan menari dan bersuka karnaMu, oh Yesusku
dan ku kan minum airmu
bagai rusa rindu selalu
Ku hidup dalamMu dan hidupMu di dalamku
Oh Yesusku...'Kau SANGAT ku cinta.

Ashira l'Adonai!

Ashira l'Adonai ki ga'oh ga'ah
Ashira l'Adonai ki ga'oh ga'ah
Michamocha, ba-elim Adonai
Michamocha nedar-bakodesh
Nachitah v'chasd'cha, am zu ga'alta
Nachitah v'chasd'cha, am zu gaalta
Ashira, Ashira, Ashira!

I will sing unto Adonai for He has triumphed gloriously.
I will sing unto Adonai for He has triumphed gloriously.
Who is like You, O Adondai, among the gods?
Who is like You, glorious in holiness?
In Your mercy, You lead the people You redeemed.
In Your mercy, You lead the people You redeemed.
I will sing, I will sing, I will sing!


The LORD lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be God my Savior! (Psalm 18:46)

this is Good King Wenceslas

Good King Wenceslas

Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the feast of Stephen
When the snow lay round about
Deep and crisp and even
Brightly shone the moon that night
Though the frost was cruel
When a poor man came in sight
Gath'ring winter fuel

"Hither, page, and stand by me
If thou know'st it, telling
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?"
"Sire, he lives a good league hence
Underneath the mountain
Right against the forest fence
By Saint Agnes' fountain."

"Bring me flesh and bring me wine
Bring me pine logs hither
Thou and I will see him dine
When we bear him thither."
Page and monarch forth they went
Forth they went together
Through the rude wind's wild lament
And the bitter weather

"Sire, the night is darker now
And the wind blows stronger
Fails my heart, I know not how,
I can go no longer."
"Mark my footsteps, my good page
Tread thou in them boldly
Thou shalt find the winter's rage
Freeze thy blood less coldly."

In his master's steps he trod
Where the snow lay dinted
Heat was in the very sod
Which the Saint had printed
Therefore, Christian men, be sure
Wealth or rank possessing
Ye who now will bless the poor
Shall yourselves find blessing

BFFs

I'm really REALLY bad at keeping in touch with friends who have gone away, or friends who I don't have to see on a regular basis anymore. :( I wish I was better. But anyways, here's to all my buddies, I'm sorry I don't reply your e-mails regularly, or talk to you online and we don't hang out as much as we should. But here's a big hug from me for you :

Nie, Chris, Wei Soon, Cheeks, Suki, Ping, Sheng, Joseph, Shannon














































































I'm thinking of you all :)

Today I read a letter published in The Star (and I can't find it online) about MPSJ workers abusing stray dogs. The writer saw them beating up the strays while on her routine evening walk, and when she yelled out at them to stop, they seemed to beat the dogs even harder. WHAT did the dogs do to deserve such treatment? There are very few laws on animal rights in this country - this is not regarded as a 'big deal' here, dogs being beaten up for no reason. I can't even find the article online, so I'll bet this happens all the time, and the abusers get away with it; so WE, the public need to do something. If you see anything like this happening, write in, make everyone aware of it - or take a stick and whack the big meanies.

Have been reading about the Holocaust, personal articles, interviews, I even downloaded Mein Kampf - because I watched Schindler's list today. It's really...inhumane, I don't even know what word to use to describe it, its just ...madness! How can one kill another, just like that, without a second's thought? Yesterday it was reported in the papers that a man's decomposed body was found in a suit case. How can a man kill another man, and then be able to sit still with himself?

Tag-a-long

Watched Quantum Of Solace today...not nice, don't watch - unless you go to TGV on Wednesday and the ticket only costs you 6 bucks :) - and I still don't know what the QuantumOfSolace is, haha.

One for the day.

"Meaningless! Meaningless!" says the Teacher. "Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless"

Sometimes I'm scared. Scared of what I do not know. Scared to find out. Sometimes I wonder what all this will come to, if the waiting ever ends. Then I wonder what I'm waiting for, or if I should be waiting...since I don't really know what I'm waiting for. Or maybe its just PMS
Now I know everything happens in seasons, and this is just one of them. And I know each season is meant to teach us something, and it's not like I've never gone through these 'seasons' before, but O teach me to wait patiently...because this time it seems to be taking so very cookie long!

When I am afraid, I will trust in You. (Psalm 56:3)

Oh well, have a holly jolly Christmas everyone!

Later

Mal's outside listening to Coldplay's 'Yellow' by himself in the dark.

I have the door opened, and I can see him sitting there, his back facing me. I think eventually he's going to watch an episode of SouthPark, like he always does. And I have been sitting in this room all day, staring at my screen because I don't want to study...but I should, i really should. I feel fidgety, I have been feeling this way since my Dark Cherry *uber sweet cough medicine* Mocha this afternoon. The world is just too big for me, and my space is just too small.

I think I'm gonna go stand under a cold shower now. See ya.

Back when I was Bruce, Bruce Lee.

Pre-Bruce

































How was I supposed to know...




































That I would end up looking like Bruce Lee -.-
(Sean wanted to 'take a picture with Bruce'. Look at him smirking!)

This one, just for laughs. Hahahah...sorry, May :D
