"Fire-in-the-bellies" Leadersif anyone saw arsenal's pre-match preparation at stamford bridge last night, you might have been inspired by William Gallas pep talk to the players. Although I couldn't hear what he said exactly, but I can see the fire in his eyes and his passion for the game can be felt.
Anyway, speaking about leaders with fire in their bellies...really thank God for all the leaders that I have really seen their fire for God...jiehui...jun liang...daniel...ps shirls
It is these people that ignite the fire for others to continue burning for God...

Love Song for #1by Corrinne MayIn the twinkling stars that dance like fireflies
In the blushing fruit that hangs upon the vine
In the face of a baby as he forms his first smile
I see You
In the whisper of the wind's soft lullaby
In the laughter and the roar of the rushing tide
In the song of the sparrow as he takes his first flight
I hear You
Why do You hide among the nameless and forgotten?
Why do You walk along these long and forsaken roads?
Calling to me in the hungry and the homeless
Calling me to water Your thirst
So I'll give You my heart and my song
In a world where so much is right
But so much is wrong
Your love is my beginning and I know it won't be too long
Till I see You
Why do You hide among the nameless and forgotten?
Why do You walk along these long and forsaken roads?
Calling to me in the hungry and the homeless
Calling me to water Your thirst
So I'll give You my heart and my song
In a world where so much is right
But so much is wrong
Your love is my beginning and I know it won't be too long
Till I see You
I hear You
I love You

I can't stand it anymore!!
I can't stand NSFs having meaningless talk in the guard room...
I can't stand NSFs engaging in meaningless relationships to fill their lives up...
I can't stand NSFs smoking and thinking that it is okay to destroy their health like that...
I can't stand NSFs clubbing their weekends/nights out away and getting high & wasted on alcohol...
God, I really dunnoe wad to do...their lives are crying out and I can't seem to do a thing...
I have the key to the answer but it is still up to them to open the door...

Getting used to the new Saturday schedule...trying to get used to the new tertiary service schedule...
waking up late on sat...with time to spare before heading to down for shepherding...a gen acts meeting
finally the service...and dinner with dota after that
the day ended at abt 11 plus...really late eh?
i guess it is how things are gonna be...although waking up late and dota would most probably be replaced by meetings and mugging time in the not so near future...

all right....have not posted a single post regarding my ORD...so here this goes...
if you really wanna noe...i feel empty...although the time leading up to ORD is great...but once you get the official all-clear and becoming a civilian again...you feel kinda lost...speaking of which, i would need to start a job hunt soon...although i would really like to have time for ministry...hopefully God will have a way out...so that i can accomodate ministry and work
oh yah...attend my first CG of the new intern grp CLs...really anxious and nervous abt leading the grp...seems like there is still lots for me to learn...

聞いて欲しい歌があるよ
Kiite hoshii uta ga aru yo
When you listen to a desired song,
いつか言いたかった言葉があるよ
Itsuka iita katta kotoba ga aru yo
you'll feed your words.
それは特別なことなんかじゃないんだ
Sore wa tokubetsu na koto nanka janainda
If something is not special
そうそれは難しいことなんかじゃないんだ
Sou sore wa muzukashii koto nanka janainda
it won't be difficult either.
ただ 地図を広げて
Tada chizu o hirogete
If only the map expands,
ただ 風を待ってたんだ 答えもなく
Tada kaze o mattetanda kotae mo naku
if only the wind is waiting, that won't be an answer.
いま僕は行くのさ
Ima boku wa iku no sa
I'm going now..
イメージの向こう側へ 僕の向こうへと
Imeeji no mukou kawa e boku no mukou eto
to the other side of my image, to beyond myself,
さぁ 飛び立とう
Sa tobi tatou

君が 君だけが 教えてくれたよ
Kimi ga kimi dake ga oshiete kureta yo
You and only you gave me a lesson;
いつまでも色褪せない憧れがあるよ
Itsu mademo iroasenai akogare ga aru yo
never let my aspirations fade.
だから行かなくちゃ
Dakara ikanakucha
Therefore don't leave.
サヨナラのかわりに 君がくれたんだ
Sayonara no kawari ni kimi ga kuretanda
Instead of the good-bye you gave me,
この勇気をくれたんだ
Kono yuuki o kuretanda
I gave you this courage.
ただ 雨に打たれ
Tada ame ni utare
If I'm only beaten by the rain,
ただ 虹を待ってたんだ 疑いもせずに
Tada niji o mattetanda utagai mo sezu ni
instead of feeling doubt, I'll be waiting for the rainbow.
いま僕は行くのさ
Ima boku wa iku nosa
I'm going now..
イメージの向こう側へ 空の向こうへと
Imeeji no mukou kawa e sora no mukou eto

この翼で
Kono tsubasa de
with this wings.
僕が いつか風を 追い越せるその時
Boku ga itsuka kaze o oi koseru sono toki
I'll outstrip a windy day,
僕が いつか虹を 手に入れるその時
Boku ga itsuka niji o te ni ireru sono toki
I'll obtain a rainbow.
君は笑ってくれるのかな
Kimi wa waratte kureru no kana
I wonder if you laugh,
また逢えるかな
Mata aeru kana
I wonder if I'll meet you again.
ただ 地図を広げて
Tada chizu o hirogete
If only the map expands,

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
- Martin Luther King Jr.
I want to add to that...
I know that one day, all men will no longer be judge and live in a kingdom of eternity.
