21st Birthday

hmmm... 21st birthday.. i wouldn't say that is super fabulous and fantastic...
i recall that weiye kept telling me that i should do more stuffs to make my 21st bday a memorable one... like having chalet and all... i didn't have a chalet.. i didn't have any party of any sort... but i'm happy and i know that this 21st birthday is a memorable one.. not because of the presents i received.. but because i learnt something... =)

yups... i learnt to be thankful... i remember that 1 week ago.. while on my way down to meet my cedar gang for my bday celebration.. it suddenly dawned on me that i've been very unappreciative of everything and everyone around me... it dawned on me that these friends of mine are willing to take time off their super busy and super hectic schedule to celebrate my brithday with me.. and i'm thankful for that.. i'm thankful for friends who are willing to spend time with me... even though we've drifted apart since sec sch days... thankful for the joy and laughter that we enjoy everytime we gather.....

i'm really glad and thankful.. just wanna say a huge thank you to shufen.. lishan.. jasmine.. elaine.. qi... weiting also lah.. haha.. for our 8 years of friendship... for always taking time out to meet up for birthday celebrations...

thank you to Crusade friends.. ppl who are ever so caring and nice... =) for remembering my bday.. for the bday song... for the prayers... for the encouragement... for everything... =)

thankful for great friends in aikido... for the time and effort u guys and gals put in for the cake.. balloons... book.. and head scratching for my present... thank you ppl for celebrating my bday with me... thank you for the fun and joy and happiness....

yup... the book that huilin made for me.. with everyone's well wishes.. as i read through it .. i noticed how most ppl commented that i'm happy and bubbly.. and i'm glad that i've brought smiles to them.. that sometimes i've managed to brighten up the day just a little... i'm thankful for that.. i thank God that He gave me a reason to be happy.. to be cheery.. and jump with joy... =) not everyone goes through life as smoothly as i did... and i'm thankful for all the blessings that God has showered upon me... and i'm thankful that i too can be used to bless others.. =)

yups.. so though this 21st year of my life on earth did not come with huge celebration.. but i'll remember it always.. for the friends.. for their effort and time spent to celebrate my bday for me... =)

Voice of Truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat and then on to the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand
But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you never win!""You never win!"

But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takesto stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"

But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
On top of them lookin' down
I soar with the wings of EAGLES
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe-
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth
I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the Voice of Truth
I will listen and believe
Cause Jesus You are the Voice of Truth
And I will listen to You
