I was supposed to be on my bed an hour ago. Hooked on Michael W. Smith song ‘Grace’. It really soothes the soul as I do my quiet time. Lately, I realised I have been trying very hard to keep myself busy with things and the people around me. Not exactly a good thing because towards the end of the day, all you wanna do is snuggle up, cry and drown in your own pool of thoughts that leave you even more tired than the day before. They said reflection is good. For me, its a painful process. Reflection to me is like drilling a hole deep down into the root of my aching heart. Its painful. It hurts but its necessary.

I had a very intimate time with God tonight. I had quite a night at Starbucks and I thought I’d learn to quieten myself down before God and develop a peaceful attitude before I hit the bed each time. I tried by first filling my mind with wholesome thoughts and then read the bible. Each night, my desire is to be close to Him and we both know that this doesnt require much conversation. Sometimes there are so many things I wan to say but most of the time, I could not yield a single word. This is when I pray God hears and feels my every heartbeat. . . . . . .

With some soft music playing in the background and the next thing I know, I was worshiping Him right there in my room feeling crappy over certain situations that seems so bleak. I am fully aware of lousy I am as His daughter. So many nights I went to bed bitter and feeling like the world owes me ( how the chinese people would say). I think He is not very proud of my attitude because I sure am not proud of myself.

As I sat here staring at my bed sight lamp, the only source of light at the moment, I came to see how God is my only light. The light to my path. I am tired of my own doings that causes me nothing but trouble. I am tired struggling with Him. I am busy lighting my own path forgetting that God is lighting a super large torchlight at me (ignore the lousy metaphor) and all I need to do is to put out my own, and follow His.

Tonight, all I want is to get lost in the His embrace. That is all I need. Nothing else.

Let me.

I suddenly feel creative

Grace

Can't wait for Christmas

I was lost when you found me here
You pulled me close and held me near
And I’m a fool but still you love
I’ll be your fool for the king of love

He gave me wings so I could fly
And gave me a song to color the sky
And all I have is all from you
And all I want is all of you

It’s grace, grace
I’m nothing without you
Grace, your grace
Shines on me

And there’ve been days when I’ve walked away
Too much to carry
Nothing left to say
Forgive me Lord when I’m weak and lost
You traded heaven for a wooden cross

And all these years you’ve carried me
You’ve been my eyes when I could not see
And beauty grows in the driving rain
Your oil of gladness in the times of pain

Mchael W. Smith

It is not too late

Massive headache.

Nothing new to me. The pain is so bad that I can hardly close my eyes and go to bed with it. Had to pop two panadols and go online while waiting for the drugs to work. Not that I have trouble sleeping these days but I once had a taste of insomnia and gosh, its torture!

Someone called me evil. Maybe I am. I can be blunt at times. Thats because I wasn’t always careful with the words i use hence causing others to feel that I can be quite quarrelsome. I am straight-forward. Never wanting to beat around the bushes in order to get what I want but ended up causing others to get upset. I am quick to decide. In other words, I may appear to be very domineering hence causing me to feel like a tyrant.

Evil. Blunt. Quarrelsome. Straight-forward. Quick to decide. Domineering.

I know what I want.

I can be quite handful.

I sometimes wish I am somewhat different.

Its a journey.

I need to get going.

I need my milk and oreo.

and maybe House.

Good morning!

Haven’t Met You Yet lyrics

I’m not surprised,
Not everything lasts,
I’ve broken my heart so many times I stopped keeping track.
Talk myself in,
I talk myself out,
I get all worked up,
Then I let myself down,

I tried so very hard not to loose it;
I came up with a million excuses,
I thought I thought of every possibility,

And I know some day that it’ll all turn out,
You’ll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And I promise you kid that I give so much more than I get~ mmm…….
I just haven’t met you yet.

Mmmmm ….

I might have to wait,
I’ll never give up,
I guess it’s half timin’, and the other half’s luck,
Wherever you are,
Whenever it’s right,
You’ll come outta nowhere and into my life.

And I know that we can be so amazin’,
And baby your love is gonna change me,
And now I can see every possibility, mmmmmm….

Somehow I know that it’ll all turn out,
You’ll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid, I’ll give so much more than I get, mmmm….
I just haven’t met you yet.

They say all’s fair
in love and war
But I won’t need to fight it,
we’ll get it right an’,
we’ll be united

Instrumental

and I know that we can be so amazin’,
And bein’ in your life is gonna change me,
And now I can see every single possibility, mmmmmm

And someday I know it’ll all turn out,
And I’ll work to work it out,
Promise you kid I’ll give more than I get
Than I get, than I get, than I get.

Oh, you know it’ll all turn out,
and you’ll make me work so we can work to work it out,
And promise you kid to give so much more than I get, yeah
I just haven’t met you yet.

I just haven’t met you yet,
Oh, promise you kid,
To give so much more than I get.

I said love love love love love love love…..
I just haven’t met you yet
Love love love …..
So doy day ay ay ay, ay ay yeah
I just haven’t met you yet!

I am tired.

I don’t know why i am became so emo.

Too many conversations i’ve had over the weekend.

Can’t really decipher what its truly best for me.

Memories to me are not a good thing.

There is always so much going on.

Exam stress is building up.

Can’t seem to stay awake whenever i read finance.

Finance is definitely not my thing.

I think i am creative.

Creative enough.

I have alot of good ideas.

Some are brilliant.

Some are just plain lame.

10 months just go by like that.

Time never waited for me.

Dance was good.

I had so much fun leading this weekend.

Its not easy to do something if you werent passionate about it.

Of course, it must be something you are called to do.

Was thinking when to start up my own business.

I have a lot of things in mind.

Thinking about it, excites me.

I hope Liverpool beats man u tonight.

My emo-ness will only get worst if they don’t.

Life’s not always about getting what you want.

because life’s just that.

Don’t take life too seriously.

I shouldn’t be taking myself too seriously even.

I love dinner parties.

I love to dress up for random reasons.

I guess i am just a girl.

Nothing more,nothing less.

I think i have nice hair colour.

Pretty nails.

Love my height.

Relatively good skin.

I love weddings.

I particularly love weddings.

Especially when they have a theme colour.

I like magenta, purple and red.

I am a colour person.

I don’t like black.

I think i will have altogether 6 bridesmaid for my wedding.

I have awesome girl friends.

I made one upset.

and i havent been seeing the other two.

But blessed are the 3 that is with me at the moment.

I cherish them.

I am totally addicted to House.

I am fine with that.

I want to connect with more people.

Realised it takes more than just effort.

Timing is everything.

I love seeing couples holding hands.

I can see it when their love radiates through their action.

Its never easy to meet someone you truly love.

I’ve lost mine.

Its okay.

I finally understood that it is time.

Misguided.

Lost.

and

found.

Are you still reading this?

I feel like having snowflakes for dinner.

Had a heavy and satisfying lunch.

I also feel i’ve been pilling up on my weight.

I wish i could take up a dance class.

I need to be more efficient when it comes to my laundry.

Love the smell of my room.

Wish i am in aus sometimes.

Never too late to trust God again.

Love reading good books.

I just finished one.

Need to a get a suit.

So hard to get the perfect one.

Can’t wait for exams to be over.

Can’t wait for camps.

Can’t wait for my internship.

I am on facebook too much.

Its like I am logged on 24 hours.

Need to get a life.

Maybe i should stop now.

yes, i think i should.

In Christ Alone
