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
About me

LSBC's 10th year anniversary dinner
It's always fun to be with ORBIT even though the food wasnt that fantastic. We had loads of fun dunno doing what.
Linen has left for UK and I'll miss her presence in church. My childhood friend since p4, we have all grown up together. Still i know she'll ahve a great time in UK. It just feels a little different that my friends are all growing up and going their own separate paths, feels different to sit in a car that my childhood friend is driving... everyone has grown up, but you somehow wish you were still a little kid.

Burnt shophouses Dead and charred body of son. Can you spot his hand?
The recent hougang shophouse fire occurred a few metres away from my house on thursday. That night, i was supposed to meet joel, kahwan and james for supper near these shophouses after their gym workout, and maybe we would have been at the scene of the fire. But they had a change of plans, so i didnt meet them eventually. Yesterday was the cremation of the 2 siblings who died in that fire, i was at their funeral wake and there were SO MANY people crowding round to look.
God convicted me in this incident. First thing in my mind was, could it be the 7th month burning that caused the fire? Im really very against the 7th month burning because which god would encourage air pollution??! In my heart i was praying that it could have been the 7th month burning which caused the fire, then perhaps the government can ban it. Then God convicted me that if He were me, He wouldnt think and pray like this. He would pray for comfort for the bereaved family, He would cry and weep with them regardless of their religion, He would be there for them. I realised how selfish I was, totally thinking about my own interests. So there and then, I prayed for comfort for the family and that they will be able to resume life again. I feel very sad for them especially when i visited the burnt shophouses. Lord, even in the midst of all these, I pray that the family can come to know about Your everlasting love for them.
"Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; in that very day his plans perish. Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God." Psalms 146: 3-5
How true man. One day someone is here, and another day they will be gone but how happy and blessed we are to have the Lord as our hope.

Thank You Father that You blessed me with a wonderful boyfriend. Thank You Lord for a successful courtship. Successful because Im more certain about what I want and what i should be doing now. Everything has officially come to a close and I have learnt alot from this whole journey. Though i still have questions about whether i have heard correctly from You and why You brought me into this, I will continue to trust You for the answers. To wj: thank you for treating me very well, for being so understanding and giving in to my constraints. I really appreciate what you have done.
So now, shu and i are single once again!!!
To Huang Liting: welcome to God's family!!!! Nothing brings me so much joy than to see my friends coming to know Jesus Christ, personally. It's a miracle!! Lord, thank You for hearing my prayers, I can only say it is the work of Your hands. Thank You thank You thank You thank You!!! Liting, I pray that you will enjoy being a christian and know that God is not just another god, but a friend, a father, a brother etc. I pray that God will watch over you and that you will hold tight to your salvation. Lord, let Liting grow to love You more each day. When she's happy, she can share her joy wth you. When she's sad, You will always be there to listen. When she's troubled, You will provide a way out for her. Thank You Jesus. You are my faithful Lord.
There are so many things to thank God for, including my new tuition student- Charlotte. I enjoy teaching her, enjoy talking to her and listening to her little stories. Lord, may You help her to improve in her studies so that You may be glorified. And thank You Lord for my sec2 cell. Im so happy to meet my handsome boys and pretty girls every week, so happy to join them in their lame jokes and hearing them use "cool" languages like "hey dude" and "totally man". haha. Did i mention that I have veryhandsome boys in my sec2 cell? Handsome but blur, but i still love them. the short, the tall, the noisy, the quiet, the thin, the fat, the cheerful, the emo-looking, the gentle, the violent, the act cool and the act cute. Different kinds of people in this cell. Feels like one big family. Thank You Lord for them!

Planet shakers - Fall in this place
Take me to the place Lord
Where there’s nothing else but me and you
longing for your presence
I know that you’re calling me to you
Here I stand
And long for your embrace
Nothing else could ever take your place
Come holy spirit, fall in this place
I need more and more of you
Fill me again with the power of your Spirit
Lord I’m crying out for more and more of you
Lord I’m crying out for more and more of you
I love this song man! It's always my heartcry to be in the secret place of the Lord. No one else can win my heart like He did. and i will obey Him till death. Father, You know me best, and some things are beyond my control or my understanding. But i really just want You to take control. I want to trust You and feel secure that everything has been taken care of.
