STILL
Hide me now
Under your wings
Cover me
within your mighty hand
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
I will be still and know you are God
Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know his power
In quietness and trust
I find this song really meaningful. Especially in this crucial phase of my life. This song really calms my heart every moment I feel worried or anxious about the future. Now, which is the exam season, I really find this song applicable to me. With Christ, I fear nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing. With Him walking beside me, my soul will always be calmed. Well, I suddenly feel so privileged to have Him as my Lord. Well, words alone will not be possible to describe that... hahaz... for those who have yet known Him, I would strongly encourage you to discover Him today...

GRADES GREATNESS OR GRACE
Man looks at our GRADES,
But God looks at our FAITH.
Though grades appeal to man,
God requires the Best.
The Best may be 'F' or 'A',
God says ' BE NOT DISMAYED'.
For it's no grace if one doesn't prevail.
So cheer up my soul, study your best,
For God only demand what we HAVE.
Be careful also my friend,
Good grades don't always mean SUCCESS.
For doing well is not enough,
It's your BEST that really count.
But then LORD, I know I cannot do my BEST.
HALLELUIAH! All is possible with PRAYER.
Be not anxious then,
Or panic in your exams.
For CHRIST who died to save your soul
will never leave you alone.
Healthy your soul will be,
If your helplessness you see.
For then you will understand,
It's only HE who made you STAND.
Therefore arise my SOUL,
And let us disappoint the foe,
For we shall give our BEST,
Let GOD TAKE CARE of the rest.
So, no matter what the results may be,
We can always rest in HIS PEACE.
For God is able to give us all distinctions.
But this clearly isn't his intention.
For God has made us all unique,
So that it's you, and only you
Can his PERFECT WILL be fulfilled.
God has always accepted you.
For He's the One who created you.
So, do not compare or despair,
For in His sight you're always fair.
I know He will surely see you through,
Showing you He is the God of tomorrow too!

REMEMBRANCE
I remembered that day
The day of crucifixion
When You said
"This is how much I love you!"
And You stretched out Your arms
And returned to the Father
I remembered that day
The day of trouble
When You said
"Surrender yourself to me!"
And that pleases You
As that worships You
It was yesterday
When worries filled my heart
When You promised
"Trust in me and miracle shall be upon you!"
I gave You my trust
And I seen that very miracle that You Promised
It is now
That I want to testify
That I want to proclaim
That You are the everlasting Lord
Whose promises never fail
Who never forsake His children
Thank You, Father
For unmeasurable love
And the unfailing promise

I BELIEVE
I heard story just the other day,
About man who gave his life away for me
Complicated yet it seems so clear
If I open up my heart, it be so near to me
I believe in you
I believe in you
I heard story just the other day,
About man who gave his life away for me
Complicated yet seems so clear
If I open up my heart, it be so near to me
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe your word as set me free
All that I am
I will live my life for you
I believe
I read a story just the other day
About the way you healed blind man, made him see
Here I stand crying out to you
Holding her faith to see miracle in me,
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe in you
I believe your word as set me free
All that I am
I will live my life for you

Gradually getting back to normal
Good news! I think that I am getting back to normal. Well, guess that those things that happened recently were due to my walk with Him. I had been straying away from Him and had neglected Him in my life. Once again, I became my own God and made decisions for myself. Well, for your information, I HAD stopped my QT with the Purpose Driven Life and by His grace, I resumed it. Today was the first day and it started with only Chapter 10, thus, I have 39 more chapters to go. Today's quiet time caused a great impact on me. It's about surrendering to God. To many people, the term surrendering is always a negative term as it is mostly used in situations like giving up on everything, captives surrendering to authority etc. However, in this book, the term surrender is to commit everything to God, letting Him to drive the car (your life), and take my hand off the steer. It's about worshipping and pleasing Him. Well, I learnt how to surrender myself to Him and how should I lead my life. Hmm, thank God for Hid faithfulness once again.
Tomorrow will be the Social Studies and E Maths paper 2. Well, maybe this should be an opportunity for me to trust Him. Just as Proverbs 3:5-6 says "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." I will trust Him with my heart and I believe that He will perform another miracle from me. I want to be a true Christian even as I face the exams. In Psalm 46:10, it says that "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." I will be still, I will be calm and bring out the grace of God and reflect His promises and faithfulness to the rest.
AMEN.
