The truth about me
Guo Feng is not patient and he is not kind.
Guo Feng does envy, does boast and is proud.
Guo Feng is rude (at times), self-seeking, is easily angered and he keeps record of wrongs.
Guo Feng does delight in evil (at times) but does not always rejoices with the truth.
Guo Feng does not always protects/trusts/hopes/perseveres.
BUT...Guo Feng knows Jesus and Jesus is all of that he isn't.
With Jesus, Guo Feng can change all that.

Pencil marks on a wall, I wasn't always this tall
You scattered some monsters from beneath my bed
You watched my team win
You watched my team lose
Watched when my bicycle went down again
And when I was weak, unable to speak
Still I could call You by name
And I said, Elbow Healer, Superhero
Come if You can
You said, I Am
Only sixteen, life is so mean
What kind of curfew is at 10pm?
You saw my mistakes
And watched my heart break
Heard when I swore I'd never love again
And when I was weak, unable to speak
Still I could call You by name
And I said Heartache Healer, Secret Keeper
Be my best friend
And you said, I Am
You saw me wear white by pale candlelight
I said forever to what lies ahead
Two kids and a dream, with kids that can scream
Too much it might seem when it is 2am
And when I am weak, unable to speak
Still I will call You by name
Shepherd, Savior, Pasture Maker
Hold onto my hand
You say, I Am
The winds of change and circumstance blow in and all around us
So we find a foothold that's familiar
And bless the moments that we feel You nearer
When life had begun, I was woven and spun
You let the angels dance around the throne
And who can say when, but they'll dance again
When I am free and finally headed home
I will be weak, unable to speak
Still I will call You by name
Creator, Maker, Life Sustainer
Comforter, Healer, my Redeemer
Lord and King, Beginning and the End
You saw me grow, even before I was born...
Seeing me from a child to the young man I am now...
You were there when I received my 'A' Div medal
You were also there...during those painful defeats...
You were there too....during the age of the raging hormones...
Depressed..emotional...i guess it is Your way of showing that
You are the only way and the perfect love that i truly wanted
I believe that You will still be there throughout all the seasons in my life...
The good...the bad and the ugly
Jesus...You indeed are Lord of all seasons...

Privileges and Entitlement...
well well...isn't tad a familiar phrase which all the Singaporean males would have heard if u have gone thru NS
this phrase came back to strike me in such a different light today...
it was actually during worship at the sub-d meeting which God reminded me about this...
the world views many things as entitlement...
for example, labour law states that leave of absence is an entitlement...
in our current generation...we view many things as entitlement as well...so we might feel as though we should deserve many of the things and thus we start to take things for granted...
this translate into our Christian walk as well! which is such a dangerous concept...we take praise and worship as an entitlement...in the sense that as Christians we are free to meet and seek God...slowly slowly it becomes routine and we take it for granted
what we don't realise is that many of the things we see as entitlement are privileges granted by God...our Abba Father!
we are carnal...fallen...we don't even deserve to see and meet God face to face...but yet He chose to die so that we can enjoy such simple things such as praising and worshipping Him...reading His word...etc.
so many of the things we view as entitled to us due to our status as His children are actually so precious and came at such a high price!
to quote from a preaching by Ps Sal Sbrena...
"I live in such a way that it doesn't degrade the sacrifice Jesus has made for us on the cross..."

I believe in the sun
Even when it is not shining
I believe in love
Even when I feel it not
I believe in God
Even when He is silent
Quotes from a poem written by a prisioner from a Nazi concentration camp...
God, I sincerely pray that I can have a heart for You like this
I want to cling on to You even when circumstances say otherwise
I want to choose to proclaim Your name and serve You even though i m going thru tough times
Make my heart like that of David...a man after Your own heart

This question popped into my head last night...
When all is stripped away, who am I?
Can I still call myself a child of God??

Friendships are most beautiful...
not because we meet each other every week..
or share with each other deeply everyday...
but they are the most beautiful because i know that on your own,
you are serving God with all your might.
and i am serving God with all my might...
along the way when we catch up or cross path once again...
and we both know that each other are still doing well and going strong in the Lord...
that's when friendships are the most satisfying...
WOW...the words of wisdom from my ex-SDL...Mr. Yeo Jie Hui
Really thank God for you!!

For 63 days...they were CG mates
For 63 days...they were soul mates
For 63 days...they followed Christ together
What a wonderful CG!

Jesus...
You've indeed moved in my heart
You've showed me what it really means
"Break my heart for what breaks Yours"
I came
I saw
I will conquer
