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

Had lunch at Breeks with Stella, Rus and Mich at Causeway Point. Had a great time catching up. Although we will be different churches, the friendship remains. After all, Singapore isn’t that big! There is always an occasion to call for a gathering! Will miss Stella and Rus badly – They are a few of the ‘bestest’ friends I have in YMM.
Had lunch with Marie, Sylvia and Shuxin last Monday, after our last lecture with DPT. It was a pretty embarrassing lecture towards the end when a picture of me was flashed in the PowerPoint without my permission! Why didn’t he ask me??? Anyway, I enjoyed my lunch at Jurong Point. Seriously, a student’s life is the best!
Waited forty-five minutes for them and they didn't even bother to apologise until I voiced my annoyance. I can understand if people are late for ten to fifteen minutes but this is rather atrocious! And there wasn't even any logical and rational reasons for their lack of punctuality! Argh...
Celebrated my aunt’s birthday with her yesterday. Happy and blessed birthday, "Sa Yi"! Hee. She brought along her two princesses. This is Esther, the younger of the two. She was having some of my noodles for lunch.
This is Krystal, savouring her double scoops of ice-cream.
Went to TomSumJo's place after that, before making our way to Trinity. Took this picture some time ago - drawn by Joash. Reminds me of "Snuffie", which he drew in my birthday card. An artist in the making?
This precious one is like a vacuum cleaner for knowledge? Keeps asking for books to be read to him. He was chuckling away over the word "joey" when I was reading to him last night. Cute!
This was taken last Saturday, I think. My hand looked like that of a ghost next to Didar's. Scarily pale! Must tan myself soon?
Had dinner at TomSumJo's place last night. Had a chat with Sharon and was ventilating quite a bit. Didn't manage to watch Awake because I was feeling a little tired and my lenses were dry. Went home with two donuts, and a Portuguese egg tart and soya bean curd bought by Tommy. Thanks, father of my Godson. Haha!
"Power is potential strength while might is power displayed" and this caught my attention. He is my Jehovah Jireh - my Provider. He is my Jehovah Tsidkenu - my Righteousness. He is my Jehovah Shalom - my Peace. He is my Jehovah Rah - my Shepherd. He is my Jehovah Rapha - my Healer. He is my Jehovah Nissi - my Banner. He is Jehovah Shammah - my God who will never leave me nor forsake me.
Someone reminded me - honouring our parents is not just about not ill-treating them. It is about loving them both in tangible and intangible ways. Had a chat with dad while mopping the floor just now. Sometimes, I feel that he is lonely. Am trying my best to give him the attention that he deserves. Well, we have a date tomorrow - marketing at NTUC. He sound pretty excited. Haha.
It is hard to fathom his thoughts and the fact that he doesn't open up made it worse. I wish we could return to those days in the past. Those late nights of chatting and talking about endless issues in life. Why is it so difficult nowadays? I really think we have to learn to be vulnerable though we risk getting hurt. Alright, we fail to see problems in the right perspective. Keep praying!!!
