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

Christmas flew by and it is New Year's Eve! There's so much to pen down and I am at a loss as to where to start. Attended a Christmas Party with a number of youths and young adults. They are a fun bunch and never fail to amaze me with their energy level. Haa...
Took part in a short skit on behalf of church meant for the community. It was stressful initially because I haven't acted for a long time. Thanks to Yane (in gold) who gave lots of advice on our acting skills. Yat Sing (in red) and Mei En (in grey) took care of much of the logistics to ensure smooth rehearsals. Wallace (in grey), I feel, looks too young to act as my husband. Haha. Anyway, we also had a very brief KTV session at Jon's cosy home (before the actual performance) and I miss his pets - colourful lovebirds.
Reported for work on Monday for a meeting and got to chat with another colleague - Sin Yee. She is a sweet lady and hopefully, we have the chance to develop our friendship further.
Went to Orchard with Ash on Tuesday after work and we took several pictures. We happened to look at the lightings above us and I sang "Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart...". Ash and I were a little shocked when she confessed that she was thinking of the same song seconds ago! Keke. Telepathy?
Ash had her hair permed - looks like a pretty Japanese doll to me.
Received a goodie bag after the short skit I participated in and I love the reindeer soft toy which was snugly packed in a plastic bag. It's a magnet and looks like it is constantly praying. Wish I had taken one more...
Gave the reindeer soft toy to my godson and we named him Wei Wei. Jo loves it so much and we played with it. Reliving my childhood. Hehe.
The year is coming to an end. Am not having a good time recently at home. I remember that I was doing my Quiet Time one Sunday before TomSumJo picked me up for church and a song came to my heart. God spoke. The exact same song was led by the Worship Leader that very morning!
Your grace is sufficient for me
Your strength is made perfect when I am weak
All that I cling to I lay at Your feet
Your grace is sufficient for me
I cried. He has never left me. He loves me and all I need is Him, my Jesus, my God.
I can see myself having a lot more work to do in the new year. The thought is frightening but my spirit is somewhat calm. Yes, I need to learn to rejoice always, pray without ceasing and give thanks in all circumstances.
Thank God for my family (include TomSumJo, Dage, Amanda...), the little ones (cousins, nieces, nephew etc.), friends (like Rus, Andrew, Ching, Ash...), opportunities to serve Him, lovely pupils, helpful colleagues, work, music and the list goes on and on.
Blessed New Year to all my loved ones! May God's love, peace, joy, faith, grace and strength be with us...
Goodbye, 2009!
Welcome, 2010!
