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

Krabi 2009: This is my first time being to Thailand. My first time sitting on an elephant. My first time climbing up a natural rock wall (it's called bouldering). I made many new friends on this trip and enjoyed the time spent with my odac friends. We went island hopping, elephant trekking, snorkelling, rockclimbing, kayaking, crab-catching... played dressing up, played many beach games, witness my friends getting stung by jellyfish, saw many monkeys...
We had a dressing up night. Derek (left) makes me laugh all the time!
Impromptu beach games- "How many people can fit into the hole?"
Snorkeling! We saw many parrot fish, leopard fish, sea cucumbers. But, most importantly, God came for me... The waters were extremely choppy that day. My friends were very caring and thoughtful towards me because I have a history of sea-sickness. I prayed really hard that I wouldnt experience any motion sickness because I wanted to enjoy the water activities. When I saw the choppy waters and a brewing storm, my heart sank. Ive never been on such water conditions before! Even in less choppy waters, I couldnt take the nauseau and headaches already. Still I just trusted my Lord. I was thinking about who I wanted to vomit on.. haha. And surprisingly, I didnt feel a single sea-sickness at all!!! I was so amazed! My Lord was right there beside me. I felt such a sense of peace even though I was on a rocking boat and amongst violent winds. My Lord told me He could do big things. I prayed for good sea conditions, but He showed me He could still the storm in me despite ANY circumstances. It was a great revelation to me.
My Kayaking buddy - Shaun! With Shaun around, I don't have to do anything!!!! Yay! haha. Many times, Shaun was really nice to tell me not to pedal. But I don't want to be of no contribution, so i'll pedal harder and "show off" that I can pedal well. Then, he will INSIST even more that I stop pedaling! I felt a little despised, seemed like he was looking down on our GIRL POWER. During the kayak, he told me that it was because everytime i lifted up the pedal, alot of muddy water droplets would fall into his mouth when he is talking to me. haha! oops. So in the end, I had a really relaxing kayaking experience.
We kayaked through the cliffs. Saw many monkeys. And one monkey jumped onto my kayak because I had food with me! We were soooooO close.
Trekked through many caves and huge rocks.
My favourite! Elephant trekking! I like elephants... they look so big and friendly
The roadside stalls' food are cheap and nice. We had pancakes, pad thai, mango sticky rice, papaya salad, noodles...
I enjoy being with my odac friends! Especially the bible-reading and praying nights with mong, laughing and singing tunelessly with Yuan Jing, screaming with Jean when watching a horror movie.

Above all, when I see the clear blue waters and the majestic-towering cliffs, I am reminded of the One who made all these. Thank You Father for the beautiful sea, steep cliffs, towering rocks and many unique creatures that I spotted! Every rock structure and every hanging limestone is unique. They are all Your masterpiece. I feel so insignificant and small amidst Your creation. Yet, You care for me and You care for every living creature residing among the creeks. Thank You for Your unfailing love for me!
"Surely the nations are like a DROP IN A BUCKET;
they are regarded as DUST on the scales;
He(The Lord) weighs the islands as though they were FINE DUST.
Lift your eyes and look to the heavens:
Who created all these?
He (God) who brings out the starry host one by one,
and CALLS THEM EACH BY NAME.
Because of his great power and mighty strength,
NOT ONE OF THEM IS MISSING."
(Isaiah 40: 14, 15, 26)
