at the cross

hello peeps!!! long time no update! =) have a lot to talk about since the last time I wrote here. But first, heard this song in COSB yesterday after not hearing it for a long time. =)

At the cross- Hillsong UNITED (mighty to save)

Oh Lord You've searched me
You know my way
Even when I fail You
I know You love me

Your holy presence
Surrounding me
In every season
I know You love me, I know You love me

At the cross I bow my knee
Where Your blood was shed for me
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now

You go before me
You shield my way
Your hand upholds me
I know You love me

At the cross I bow my knee
Where Your blood was shed for me
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now?(x2)

You tore the veil
You made a way
When You said that it is done(x2)

And when the earth's veil
Falls from my eyes
And You stand before me
I know You love me
Oh.. I know You love me

At the cross I bow my knee
Where your blood was shed for me
There's no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now?(x2)

=) daddy spoke at the bilingual service yesterday. ely, shawn, sara, nadia and ely's momma and daddy were there too. I think it was a lot of fun to be back there with friends. hee. then we had lunch at ghim moh market before heading off to vivocity for a while.

I think some of the most wonderful things have happened in the months since school started. I made some of the most awesome (christian) friends on campus... cindy and ryan!!! =) and michelle leong!!! haha. and this is all the Lord's doing I tell you.

also, my LTB group is a bunch of very lovely people whom I really enjoy spending time with. =) *happie happie*

PENNY LEE WEN YI!!! I MISS YOU A LOT!

recently, the Lord has begun to deal with me in the area of self control. I remember in 2006 He taught me faith, in 2007 He taught me love. I think His personal lesson for me this year is self control. Self control in how my time is spent, what I've been eating (haha) who I've been hanging with, what I've been watching, what I've been listening to... all these are very important things that every christian today needs to learn.

Daddy once said that to be a failure is selfish. cause:
a) it doesn't show God's glory
b) my failure will affect someone else
c) my success will allow me to reach out to someone else
this is the reason why I need to reset my priorities.

recently, I got touched by a blog entry that someone showed me. It talked about valentine's day and how the person realised that they are not at the maturity level that the Lord wants them to be at yet. The person typed out exactly what I was experiencing and I found myself sitting in a corner with goosebumps and staring up in wonder at God. Not only that, there were many things about that blog that edified people. I realised in recent times, my blog has failed to do that. "Focus on self makes one lack self control". LOL.

a testimony will emerge soon enough about the lessons that the Lord teaches me this year!!! you wait and see! but besides that, being thankful is a good way to start each day. =) love and blessings!!
