Who am i
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

did you every talk to God abovetell Him that you need a friend to lovepray in Jesus' name believing that God answers prayershave you told Him all your cares and woes?every tiny little fear He knowsyou can know He'll always hear and He will answer prayersyou can whisper in a crowd to Him you can cry when you're alone to Himyou dont have to pray out loud to HimHe knows your thoughtson a lofty mountain peak He's therein a meadow by a stream He's thereanywhere on earth you goHe's been there from the startfind the answer in His Word: It's trueyou'll be strong because He walks with youby His faithfulness, He'll change you tooGod answers prayers!!!!This is a song very dear to PL-lites. The first time i heard it was in Primary 1 and it never fails to remind me that God is not just air, God is a real friend.. He is real. Recently, i met some acquaintances whom i know for 10 years? and i realised they had become mentally unsound. It's so hard to imagine normal people, now behaving as if they are in a world of their own. They wouldn't be like this if the education system was not so stressful or if they had many close friends to talk to. Lord, i pray that You'll heal them and be someone real to them... Amen.

Yesterday was Saturday... something really funny happened man, haha! Eugene, Kahwan, Joel and I were together and we were going to Eugene's house from church. Shu-En was supposed to meet us at Eugene's house later. Actually, we did not go to Eugene's house, we were waiting for her to reach first and then go up together. She did not know that. Anyway, all 4 of us hid behind a pillar and we wanted to scare her when she came. Eugene was looking out for any sign of her.
Eugene: ok, she's coming, she's coming
Eugene: reaching soon, should be coming now
Shu-en: Hello everyone!
Everyone: Eh?? WHY YOU COME OUT FROM THERE??!!!!! CHEAT OUR FEELINGS!!!
hahhaha... you got the picture??? Shu decided to take a different route to Eugene's house yesterday. So while we were all waiting to scare her, she came out from another side and gave us a "shock" instead. So funny man!! Actually, Eugene didn't see Shu, he was just gauging how near she would be to us from the time she alighted at his block's bus stop.
"A patient man has great understanding, but a quick tempered man displays folly" Proverbs 14:29. I must have patience!

EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOoo many things happened this week, good and bad situations... but i shall not talk about it. Isn't there a verse about blessed are the peacemakers?? well, if i remembered that verse i would have told it to him. Yes, if you are right there's nothing to be ashamed about, but to start a "war" with other people... that's just being foolish.
Anyway, i want to talk about my tree house!! It is made of wood and built on a tree! there are soft little cushions on the floor and this is where we'll have secret meetings. You can hear the birds whistling and the swishing of the leaves and branches. There are many other trees surrounding the tree house or maybe this particular tree can be on a big field. there's a swing hanging down from one of the branches. We can sing, sleep, stone and relax inside... it'll be a haven of relaxation. There will be the smell of fresh green grass and rainwater and there will be frequent gusts of wind barging into the house. At the bottom of the tree, we can grow potatoes, spring onions, carrots and many other vegetables. This tree has the features of those wise oak trees. It looks wisened with age but yet tall and strong and the branches spread out like a fat, fluffy cloud. theres a rope ladder that hangs down from the tree house. Sometimes, you can feel the tree shake slightly because the tree is dancing for joy... it feels a little like TURBULENCE!! If the tree grows fruits too, that will be better. Then, we can just stick out our hands from our windows and grab a fruit to eat!!haha, this is a tree house that i imagined and i wish there was really such a tree house on Earth. Doesn't it sound so nice and fun!!!?? But i know Heaven will be a much better place, filled with glory and grace. We can see our Saviour's face!!!So after 9 months, our cell decides to change our cell name... ideas appreciated, u can just type it on the tag board!! existing cell name is BENG= Bringing everyone near God.. the cell feels that it lacks civilisation. We hope to have a cell name that has the same meaning as the previous one but not BENG, haha.

This is super belated man... Happy Birthday Eugene!!! It was so fun celebrating Eugene's bdae with the Tung Ling people on Wed, at Fish and Co. Most of them still look the same except for a few. Sumei's mother is really funny! I cant believe all of us are now going our own separate ways, it feels weird. I cant imagine Sabna as a banker or Bacon as some telephone person man. However, im so glad to see everyone!!!! Brother is still so lame and forever spoiling my GOOD reputation. Oh, there's something funny that happened. Shu-en wanted to buy guitar strings when she reached DHOBY GHAUT(the Fish and Co was there). Both of us were on our way there, in the MRT. Then this very "smart" person-- Bacon-- called up to scold us for being late and asked us where we were. At that point of time, we were at the Little India mrt stop, so i just told him we were at Little India. He told Brother that we were at Little India because Shu-en needed to buy guitar strings there!! haha, so funny man!!! Anyway, the Youth Ministry had a sports fiesta on Sun. We played alot of fun but really dirty games, like passing bread with jam on it using your CHEEKS!!! It felt so cold man!! There was tug-of-war too. The guys were so rough and they played till they had rope burns but the girls were more gentle... because we kept laughing until we couldn't pull the rope, so we lost within a few minutes. Soccer was fun too!!! I scored a goal in by accident!!! I must thank God that Andy Quek (the referee) was on our side. when the other group rolled the ball backwards it was considered a foul, when they snatched the ball from a girl, that was a foul too!!! haha! We all really bonded. Im just thinking that we have really come so far. Just 4 years ago, there were about 30 of us.. and now there's more than 100!!! Praise God!! And more are coming!This week is my study break. Ill be having exams next week and then.. HOLIDAYS!!! I cant wait to go to Aceh!!! Let the rain of Your presence fall on me, everyday that I live, Lord let Your presence flow, rain on me. Life is very very miserable without God, so i thank God that i have Him!!!
