when God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.

actual song/singing starts at 1:10 so yup.
i personally like her version alot, maybe it's not musical-ish enough though? but i like it. its full of emotion.
choir day camp today was really fun, like i bonded quite a bit with the seniors and esp the lead cast people. it was so fun. i keot laughing at yanjun lol. once the MPR was leaking rainwater and we wanted to burst out into 'lok sui ten'. and we had donuts. and it ended4 hours earlier.
so bon and i wentfor cell dinner. took 156 which took forever.. then suddenly i saw this part of the sky glowing orange. so bon and i really curious, followed it cuz we wanted to see why it wa glowing!! we walked for reaaaaaaaaallly long but the glowy part kept fading and re-appearing, either that or it would move further away. IT WAS SO WEIRD AND SO DIABOLICAL i dont know why. so we got really hungry and took a cab to the thai restaurant where the rest were.

10 Paradoxical Commandments of Leadership
by Kent Keith
1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love and trust them anyway.
2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
3. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
5. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
6. The biggest people with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest people with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
7. People favor underdogs but follow top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
8. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
9. People really need help but may attack you if you help them.
Help people anyway.
10. Give the world the best you have, and you may get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world your best anyway.
The above list was written by Kent Keith in 1968 when he was a 19 year old student at Harvard.
thanks geor for sharing. Geor, you aren't in the wrong and i cant tell you how much supportive as a friend you are.. to all your friends. and to me. so thanks for being my frank, supportive funny friend i <3>

Oh You bring hope to the hopeless And light to those in the darkness And death to life Now I’m alive
Oh You give peace to the restless And joy to homes that are broken I see You now In You I’m found
Oh You fill those who are empty And rescue those in the valley And through it all You calm my soul Oh You find me in my weakness And heal the wounds of my heartache I worship You in spirit and truth

Calm down Deep breaths And get yourself dressed instead Of running around And pulling all your threads and Breaking yourself up
If it's a broken part, replace it If it’s a broken arm then brace it If it's a broken heart then face it
And hold your own Know your name And go your own way Hold your own Know your name And go your own way
And everything will be fine
Hang on Help is on the way Stay strong I'm doing everything
Hold your own Know your name And go your own way Hold your own Know your name And go your own way
And everything Everything will be fine Everything
Are the details in the fabric Are the things that make you panic Are your thoughts results of static cling?
Are the things that make you blow Hell, no reason, go on and scream If you're shocked it's just the fault Of faulty manufacturing.
Everything will be fine Everything in no time at all Everything
Hold your own And know your name Go your own way
Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own) Are the things that make you panic (Know your name) Are your thoughts results of static cling? (Go your own way)
Hold your own Know your name Go your own way.
Are the details in the fabric (Hold your own) Are the things that make you panic (Know your name) Is it Mother Nature's sewing machine? (Go your own way) Are the things that make you blow (Hold your own) Hell no reason go on and scream (Know your name) If you’re shocked it's just the fault (Go your own way) Of faulty manufacturing
Everything will be fine Everything in no time at all Hearts will hold . . . . . this is the best song ever.

Psalms 18: 28-30 For You will light my lamp; The Lord my God will enlighten my darkness. For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall. As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proovenl He is a shield to all who trust in Him.
XOXO 12:39 AM
i was at trinity's RBR last night, and worship was really short. like two songs. but then i was just closing my eyes.. and just saying thank You. so long since i've felt like that. just pure gratefulness God, thank you so much for seeing me through the week. though i screwed up 2 tests, though i was so tired, yet you see me through. i guess the difference is because God you not only bring me through it, deliver me, but most importantly God you help me overcome my week. and overcoming is something big.. its knowing i messed up but remembering God's strength will empower me to pick myself up and study harder, and that assurance that God will guide me through the rest of school, God everything is possible in You. thanks for giving me hope. when i can't, God certainly can.
show me the power of brokenness O Lord.
