rediscovering eden
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

This is what the Lord says-
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine."
Isaiah 43: 1
Have u left home without your wallet? Man i did. Yesterday. Gosshhh and it was pretty embarassing i tell you. Was waiting for Jaclyn to reach Bugis coz we're having luch you see. So i popped by accesorize and i saw this pouch. When i got to the counter all ready to make my payment, the cashier already keyed in the price, i realise that my wallet aint with me. Arrrggghhh. i felt so bad after that. I told the cashier, " ermmm i dont think i want to get it anymore." n quickly left the shop. Dont know how the cashier reacted to me but man i dint know where to hide myself la. haiz. So jac became my atm for the day. We had a good luch at Pasta Mania, happily talking about our hongkong trip and yes her doggie, Happy. Going out with jac yesterday was fun. haha we went to icon @bugis and we just tried clothes and all. Me being financially handicapped just tried stuff and haha went back gianing about those clothes. But i must say it was good. Good way of cutting down on my expenditure. So if u ever want to stop spending so much, dont bring your wallet out that day. try it.

"Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my convenant of peace be removed,"
says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
Isaiah 54: 10
I believe everything happens for a reason. I believe that that there are no bad people but wrong choices. I believe that all that is happening right now points to a certain direction. I believe in a God. My Saviour who paid the price on Calvary. Though i may not be there to see how He victoriously rose up from the grave, i know He did. Coz He is in me.

Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to perserve so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.
Hebrews 10:35-36
Corrinne May is a good songwriter. I bought her CD the other day at gramaphone and i was so struck by the song, "Safe in a Crazy World" that's the title of her album as well. Amazing. I thought that the song was well written not because it was filled with the lovely dovey, all the "I love you my dear and you are so beautiful" phrases but it spoke intimately of her relationship with her special soomeone whom i believe was very much dedicated to her creator, God. It speaks so much of how we struggle sometimes in life, finding answers, going ahead with life but at the end of it all when we hurt ourselves, when we are crushed, the answer is right there waiting. I was very reminded of the love the Father had for me. How He kept and is still keeping me safe in this crazy world. Thank you Lord Jesus for watching over my every step.
Safe in a Crazy WorldI try to smile my tears away I try to keep my cool Oh but one more door gets in my way I feel like such a foolTrampled and bitter My heart just wants to bleed and stopBelieving in meIt feels like nothing is for certain and that nothing comes for freeWhen they're lowering the curtain to the Theatre of my dreamsI stumble and i crumble and I'mSinking to my knees but youYou cradle meChorus(C):You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy worldYou understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy worldAnd in your arms I find the strength to believe in me againNoise keeps chasing me No matter where I goOh and life likes pretending that it's On a TV show When it's hard to tell what's real From what the world just wants to preach You are the voice I seekChorus'cause when I'm wrapped up in your armsNothing else can touch meWhat a wonderful way to rechargeI feel like I can breathe againChorus

You are my lamp, O Lord;
the Lord turns my darkness into light.
With your help I can advance against a troop;
with my God I can scale a wall.
2 Samuel 22: 29-30
