YOUR MERCY FOUND ME
UPON THE BROKEN ROAD
AND LIFTED ME BEYOND MY FAILING
INTO YOUR GLORY
MY SIN AND SHAME DISSOLVED
AND NOW FOREVER YOURS I’LL STAND
IN LOVE NEVER TO END
TO CALL YOU MORE THAN LORD GLORIOUS FRIEND
SO I THROW MY LIFE
UPON ALL THAT YOU ARE
‘CAUSE I KNOW YOU GAVE IT ALL FOR ME
AND WHEN ALL ELSE FADES
MY SOUL WILL DANCE WITH YOU
WHERE THE LOVE LASTS FOREVER
AND FOREVER I WILL SING
LORD FOREVER I WILL SING
OF HOW YOU GAVE YOUR LIFE AWAY
JUST TO SAVE ME, LORD YOU SAVED ME
WITH YOU, WHERE THE LOVE LASTS FOREVER
I have loved you with an everlasting love. I have called you to an eternal calling. Though storms may rise higher than you are, I am the God who will save. Though the burden weighs heavy, yet you are stronger with Me in you. When you can no longer walk on, I will carry you. The work will push you beyond your known limits, and that is when you will rely on My strength. Your rewards come not from man, but from Me alone. Your faith will be tested by fire, yet when you stay despite the heat, you will come forth refined as gold. You will come forth stronger than you imagine, because you have stayed the course and delighted yourself in Me.
“Whom have I in heaven but You? There is none upon earth that I desire besides You. My flesh and my heart fail, BUT God is the strength of my heart and my portion FOREVER.”
“For You are my lamp, O Lord, The Lord shall enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall.”
My soul chooses to dance. My praise begs to differ. Where the love lasts forever.
Through the Rain
When you get caught in the rain with no where to run
When you're distraught and in pain without anyone
When you keep crying out to be saved but nobody comes
And you feel so far away that you just can't find your way home
You can get there alone
It’s ok, won't you say
I can make it through the rain
I can stand up once again on my own and I know that I’m strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid
I hold tighter to my faith and I live one more day and I make it through the rain
And if you keep falling down, don't you dare give in
You will arise safe and sound, so keep pressing on steadfastly and you'll find what you need to prevail
Won't you say
I can make it through the rain
I can stand up once again on my own and I know that I’m strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid
I hold tighter to my faith and I live one more day and I make it through the rain
And when the wind blows
And shadows grow close
Don't be afraid
There’s nothing you can't face
And should they tell you, you'll never pull through
Don't hesitate, stand tall and say
I can make it through the rain
I can stand up once again on my own and I know that I'm strong enough to mend
And every time I feel afraid I hold tighter to my faith and I live one more day and I make it through the rain
I can make it through the rain and stand up once again
And I have one more day and night I can make it through the rain
Oh yes you can, your gonna make it through the rain
Sometimes it does require immense strength and courage to garner enough to walk through the rain. Life is a constant fight for dominion, a statement that bears all truth in itself. Either you make it through or you do not, either you win or you do not.
It's all about clinging on to the voice of truth, to hold on tight and never let go in this walk of faith, to have that revelation that the grace of God will always sustain. I will enjoy my walk through the rain, because I know You are holding me close in Your embrace. Faith is built on memories. How true that is, where I know that I can believe because of how You have never failed me through this journey.
Keep on going, you will make it through the rain.
DT Leaders 07! *PLus cute-as-a-button Jephthah and his classic pose...*
For the ladies in us...cheers!
Welcome to Redang Trip 2007! The look after surviving hours of car ride and super bumpy boat ride. It was an adventure all right. ;)
A picture of many words. Reminds me of Primary School Oral Exams, when we had to describe a picture in Chinese to the best of our ability: this is simply the picture to use. 
Yes, this is More More Tea Inn, where the Xia Re Mo Mo Cha movie starring Sammi Cheng was filmed. Photo opportunity not to be missed. 
This is E348, and ready to go! Notice the hand signs which were supposed to spell E348...
Picture-perfect. I thought Laguna Resorts @ Redang should have paid us millions for these shots for their advertisement. I'm sure many would have interpreted FUN from them. Definitely crowd-pullers...nuff' said. 
When all was calm and the smiles were beautiful (and Terence tried stealing the limelight by being in the middle)...
We sensed some trouble brewing...and decided to shout wait (okay, some did sense it, not all though, some were still very happily posing...)
And there you have it! Adeline and Zoe were engulfed by the tsunami while the rest still manage to smile..hmm...
This was before I overcame the fear of the open-eyes-in-water syndrome...
And this was me after I overcame! *Our faith has overcome...*I absolutely love this pic coz of how the light falls from the top...was trying very hard to maintain the smile.
All of us took the plunge in together...and yes, you can be sure it was messy underwater. Looking good was one thing, punching each other by accident underwater was another though...
Just decided to post some of my makeover pics coz...firstly, this will save my pics should my comp crash, and secondly, I know someone out there has been asking me for them, so here they are...;) Enjoy!
This is one side of Zoe...
And this is another side of me...
I want to know you Lord
You are my great BIG God
I'm young and do not know alot
Come and be my all
I want to love you Lord
Giving you my life and all
You died for me You sacrificed
I won't forget you Lord
I love You Jesus
I'll grow up knowing You
I love You Jesus
I'll grow up serving You
I love You Jesus
My life is saved by You
I'll never forget
Never forget
I'll grow up loving You
I've always loved and enjoyed the little ones. Whenever I'm down, listening to this song never fails to remind me of the faith and sweet innocent love they have for Jesus. To our little counterparts, "when I fall down, I run crying to Daddy and he will make me smile again.". Certain times as adults, we become so sophisticated and complicated in the way we view our problems that if we were to take a step back and just throw our lives wholly to love God, we realise how blessed we are to at least have God with us at least, and that in itself makes the problem pale in comparison!
Always remember, the Kingdom of God works on love and forgiveness, never on guilt and condemnation. No worries that things will run the risk of not working out and failing, as long as our lives run in parallel with God's will for us, and He is really no. 1 in our lives. Home is where the heart is. I have the confidence God will work it out for me in the end, how about you? Are there some things we need to rearrange in our lives such that God returns to His rightful position in our hearts?
Trust and obey
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus
But to trust and obey
Sometimes, burdens seem too heavy to carry and bearing the weight of the cross seems too much. What if you are battle-weary yet you still have to fight valiantly, because it is a calling upon your life, and your hand is already stuck to the sword? Sometimes, we have to summon RAW faith to drag ourselves on despite how the price paid may outweigh the reward. Sometimes, frustration renders you so helpless, yet you know you cannot be.
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of who I am
But when those trials come
My human nature, shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting
Can be easily ignored
Sometimes, we just want to stop fighting and settle for defeat. We want to scream, shout, and take leave from the burden. Yet many times, we just cannot. Being someone in the Sales industry, you know you cannot take leave as you want, because in that one day of leave, one may easily say goodbye to a big deal since time is money. In the same way, taking leave just one day in the KOG may mean losing out on the fight against the devil, losing out on standing in the gap for your sheep.
And that's why, we got to keep fighting. We got to be strong and know that it is He who strengthens our hands for battle, who makes us strong for victory. To you, girl, let's keep sowing into our sheep, because our reward will be in heaven. Won't it be the best when Jesus comes up to you in Heaven and says "Well done, my good and faithful servant. In you, I am very well-pleased."? This is a calling far beyond ourselves, let's find our rest in God. I'm here for you too!
