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

Today, my 2 youngest tutees (Pri 3 and Pri 5 standard) got into a huge sibling fight before I came over to tuition them. My role as a tuition teacher now seems to include mothering too. Their mum wanted me to talk to the both of them. Haha. They are both so cute. After tuition, I had a little pep talk with them. And I noticed how they cuddle up next to me to "complain" about each other. Even though I told the youngest one off for being mostly in the wrong, and I thought she would distance herself from me, I was surprised that she came closer and sat on my lap with a guilty look on her face. When I was younger, I would also sit on my parents' lap because it felt safe, because I felt loved, because I felt forgiven after being scolded. The Lord reminded me that I could also sit on His lap anytime I wanted to. Whether I feel guilty, whether I feel happy, whether I am sad and discouraged, I can sit on His lap and find assurance and comfort and mercy. And I dont have to ask permission to sit on His lap! In your arms, that's where I want to be....

I knew this day will come...When I had to face my fearsI remembered how I reluctantly chose NTUBecause I feared the competition aheadI knew this path wouldnt be easyIm not the competitive sortI know my learning style very wellYet You Lord brought me hereand foretold to me that I'll face my giantsI knew You had Your reasons and plansThis familiar fatigue and stress overwhelm meI can't think rationallyNeither can I feel for othersSometimes friends make it worseWith their expectations and commentsIm sorry LordFor shrinking awayFor venting my anger at YouFor being angry with everyone around meIf You brought me hereYou'll give me the wings to flyAnd help me overcome my fearThough this time I seem like a grasshopper in my own eyesYou say Im more than a conquerorSo I thank You for what You are going to do in my lifeIf God is for meWho can be against meYay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jeremiah 17:7-8 8 He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."
Lord, I pray for my classmates too. I know they're not having a good time either. I bless them with Your peace and joy and discipline as they prepare for their exams. Watch over their physical health and their emotional and mental state of mind too. Thank You Father. Amen!
