somewhere
love and other drugs
my soul to take
going the distance

Title : Beautiful, beautiful

Don’t know how it is You looked at me
And saw the person that I could be
Awakening my heart
Breaking through the dark
Suddenly Your grace

(Chorus)
Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful, beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need
You are so
Beautiful, beautiful

Now there’s a joy inside I can’t contain
But even perfect days can end in rain
And though it’s pouring down
I see You through the clouds
Shining on my face

I have come undone
But I have just begun
Changing by Your grace

today was quite a rushed day! especially in the evening while preparing for cell. i cooked bak kut teh(kudos to A1 for premix) and i added some ground pepper to it. at the same time i rolled meat balls from my remaining minced pork and put it in as well. the outcome didn turn out bad, but i didnt find it satisfying regardless the many times kenneth, the bak kut teh lover, tells me its was nice! i didn like the taste of the soup at all! hmmf, think the next time, i think i'll add more pepper, orange peel(to give the 'gam' taste -cantonese), and something else to give it the sourish taste! yeah, kenneth mentioned too i might need more garlic. he also made a very apt, in my face statement out of the blue which was so true.

aiyah, don't compare your bak kut teh with the balestier one lah.

haha. i realised that was exactly what i was doing!:b

other than that, im gg to canningvale market for the first time tmr haha. it sounds exciting, but in my attempt to eat at home more and save money, the process of planning your meals ahead, cooking for yourself and cooking for lunch from the previous day's dinner can be quite a painful process and sad scene. ayye.

other news, im spurred today by the divinity of God during cell. i have to say i wasn't prepared to the max while leading cell worship today. however, seeing how God ministered to the cell(no matter how small the number is) and how it ties in with cell word and what eunice shared, i was re-stunned that God is at work and He does things in ways we never would be able to foresee. :)

what they say is true.

absence makes the heart grows fonder.

and no its not noelle, its my lost babykingkong mazda 2(haha!). AHHHHHHHHH cant help that i see so many here, in so many beautiful colours.tian ah

im just done w lectopia-ing in library and in the last 10mins, i looked up and saw my surroundings, i thought i saw hongda and slong.

sigh but i know that wont be true. owells, one of those days which i appreciate the familiarity and familiar faces around me. :)

i'll learn.

It was that very fateful night
Which put me in a terrible plight
9 examinations with 2 weeks to go
I broke down I gave up, I hit a new low
I ran to my room, distraught and hopeless
I needed God, to fill my emptiness.
I knelt down and told God I needed some help
I called, he answered, my heart he felt
There and then peace filled my heart
I went back to my books and I felt smart
The Lord came to my rescue when I was defeated
Hope and confidence he gave when I pleaded.
This is my God, who always provides
Especially His love with no clause to abide.

At times horrible voices pollute my mind
You’re ugly, unworthy, so go hide behind.
The enemy knows my weakness and makes me blind
Nothing good about me am I able to find
But the Lord is my rescuer, my fortress, my king
He saves me from lies that the enemy brings
He opens my eyes to the things unseen
He tells me I’m beautiful despite what I think.

Many things in life I regret having done
But God always gives me a second chance
This is our God who constantly forgives
His unending love for me I truly believe
Indeed amazing grace saved a wretch like me
I was lost and blind but now I see.

I thank God for everything that He has done
He is my shepherd I shall not want
His glory now fills my universe
His light makes my life’s darkness fully disperse
His presence brings peace into my heart
His love accepts me no matter what.
It’s by His stripes that I am saved
With Him will I always be amazed
In Him I know my future’s secure
Despite any endeavors I’ll have to endure
Today I declare that He is my God
And with Him forever will I follow and walk.
