the human race is such a disappointment, don't you think?

really, everyone expects everyone else to be nice to them while they themselves are allowed to be mean and evil. i know, i'm like that sometimes... but it's quite sickening when you try to make an effort to be nice to people and they're just flat out. BLAH. yes.

and. just a thought. is it evil to call someone a shithead if they really are a shithead?

but we digress. anyways. right now, there's this battle raging around in my head. where 2 of my instincts are rather in a conflict. on the one hand, i know i must try to be a good Christian, and a good witness to people and such. HOWEVER. i know too, that i'm not exactly an ultra guaikia, and therefore may give people a warped view of Christians in that i claim to be one and yet do not live out my faith.

it is tempting to just be my evil self. but thats not right either, is it.

oh wells. i feel the need to whack something now. *whack whack pow bish.

lydia says i'm cynical and i see the glass as half empty. that's quite sad, because i don't think i really do. for example. if the apple juice in the fridge is running low, i would write "buy apple juice" on a piece of postit pad and stick it to the fridge. so is that optimistic, pessimistic, or practical?

*shrugs. if i had the power to do anything in the world right now, i would probably alter the calender so that this coming saturday simply vanished, then we wouldn't have mep concert. STUPID STUPID MEP CONCERT. blah. but do not allow me to drag you down with cynicism, my happy friends, ho no! kindly continue being happy and perhaps it might be a success.

just perhaps.

the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
Bless Your name, bless Your name, Jesus
And the deeds of the day and the truth in my ways
Speak of You, speak of You, Jesus

For this is what I'm glad to do
It's time to live a life of love that pleases You
And I will give my all to You
Surrender everything I have and follow You
I'll follow You


Lord, will You be my vision, Lord, will You by my guide
Be my hope, be my light and the way
And I'll look not for riches, nor praises on earth
Only You'll be the first of my heart

I will follow
I will follow You

story that angcai told me:

there was this black and white photo, of people in a church, singing and worshipping.
amidst the black and white, there was only one person in colour, one person who stood out.
why?

this person was mute.

yet, this person, who was unable to sing, was worshipping God with all his heart. and that's what matters. the only thing that should matter. the only thing that i want to matter to me, no matter what happens.

DEAR GOD,
just wanna say thanks for a pretty good worship practice today.
although i'm kinda OUT of my comfort zone tmr, i pray tt You'll help me to worship You with all my heart, to please You, not do it for anyone else but You alone. i pray You'd be with each and every single one of us tmr, all of us in the worship team... angcai, eugene, bernice, caleb, me... help us to lead the congregation in worshipping You, and i pray tt our worship would be pleasing in Your eyes. please bless us tmr, and i really hope tt we'll bring a smile to Your face.
(and it wouldnt hurt if You make us sound good too... have to be honest, that wld be my ideal! doing it for You and sounding good at the same time.!) i love You, Lord!
Amen(:

Jars Of Clay - Show You Love

Speak-
say the words that no one else will ever say
Love-
love like the world we know is over in a day
I'm gonna show you love in every language
I'm gonna speak with words that need no form
I'm gonna give you what you never had before
You're beautiful
and I'm weakened by the force of Your eyes
so shine bright to separate the truth from the lies
I'm gonna show you love
So tie me to a tree and let the smoke and ash collect
No, I won't regret to let love do what love will let
We can drown in mixed emotions
or walk an angry sea
this is the cost of being free

complex because we want to live our faith in a complex and ever changing world

Just 3 things,

Love OTHERS

bk star potatos are going at 20cents for NINE, i repeat, NINE!



that's practically obscene!
but it sure does make me happy(:

it just suddenly struck me, how truly unfortunate the people who died in the London bombings were.

i mean. duh it's super sad tt they died and all, and some may not have been Christians. but the fact tt they died for no fricking reason at all but for some bloody person who wanted to make a statement. and were unfortunate enough to be there at that precise time and place.

i could have been there. you could have been there. hell, ANYONE could have been there.

what a sad world we're living in.

In a place that won't let us feel
In a life where nothing seems real
I have found you
I have found you
In a world that's moving too fast
In a world where nothing can last
I will hold you
I will hold you

Our lives will change when tomorrow comes
Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums
and we have music all right
tearing the night

A song
played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound, a lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me
to hold you tight
and dance like it's the last night of the world

On the other side of the earth
There's a place where life still has worth
I will take you
I'll go with you
You won't believe all the things you'll see
I know 'cause you'll see them all with me

If we're together that's when
we'll hear it again

A song
played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound, a lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me
to hold you tight
and dance like it's the last night of the world

Dreams
they were all I ever knew
Dreams
you won't need when I'm through
Anywhere
we may be
I will sing with you
a song...

A song played on a solo saxophone
So stay with me
and hold me tight
and dance
like it's the last night of the world

ok. call me nerdy but i'm listening to the Miss Saigon soundtrack now... it's super duper nice! esp this song ^. it's like my favourite la! woot! i wanna watch the thing again... last time i watched was like p5 and i was young and stupid and sleepy then. garrh.
