Psalm 139
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

O LORD, You have searched me and known me!
You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You discern my thoughts from afar.
You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways.
Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.
You hem me in, behind and before, and lay Your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high; I cannot attain it.

Where shall I go from Your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, You are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, You are there!
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there Your hand shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.
If I say, "Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night," even the darkness is not dark to You; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with You.

For You formed my inward parts; You knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are Your works; my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;in Your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them.

How precious to me are Your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!
If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
I awake, and I am still with You.

Oh that You would slay the wicked, O God!
O men of blood, depart from me!
They speak against You with malicious intent;
Your enemies take your name in vain!
Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You? I hate them with complete hatred; I count them my enemies.

Search me, O God, and know my heart!
Try me and know my thoughts!
And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!

This is funny....


Went to ubin yesterday for recce trip...







Next Saturday! Amazing Race !! 1:30pm to 7pm..! join me! haha...







anyways.. i was about to file the map of ubin away when i saw this paragraph...












If you are lost in Pular Ubin, just remember this: 500 years ago, Christopher Columbus also did not know geography but being brave and adventurous, he perservered, sailed on and discovered the America. The rest is history. So if you are lost in ubin, you'll be delighted to discover yourself and amazed by the capability of nature to refresh the mind and body, something which orchard road can never do.









Pulau Ubin is only a small island approx 7 by 3 km. All roads lead back to Rome. In this case, the village and jetty

Reflections

The Mission

There's a call going out
Across the land in every nation
A call to those who swear allegiance to the cross of Christ
A call to true humility, to live our live responsibly
To deepen our devotion to the cross at any price

Let us then be sober, moving only in the Spirit
As aliens and strangers in a hostile foreign land
The message we're proclaiming is repentance and forgiveness
The offer of salvation to a dying race of man

To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
The spring from which our service overflows
Across the street, Or around the world
The mission's still the same
Proclaim and live the Truth
In Jesus' name

As a candle is consumed by the passion of the flame
Spilling light unsparingly throughout a darkened room
Let us burn to know Him deeper
Then our service flaming bright
Will radiate his passions
And blaze with holy light
Church camp theme song....
a reminder of the important things of being a Christian....
to love the Lord our God....
To proclaim and live the truth in Jesus' name....

camp was good...
learnt some stuffs... both from the messages and the sharing by others
think right now.. the verse that keeps coming to me is this...

Revelation 21:4
And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes.....
someone shared this during the camp...

how can He wipe away the tears if there are no tears shed?

Matthew 5:4
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted

although the situation may look bleak... although i feel so much like just walking away... but just remembering that God knows every tear that's shed.. and He will wipe away every tear allows me to continue to hope and trust in Him...

please pray along with me for my family...

=)

Mighty to save - Hillsong

Mighty to save - Hillsong

Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness
A kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations

Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is Mighty to save
He is Mighty to save
Forever
Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again

I give my life to follow
Everything i believe in
Now i surrender

Shine your light and let the whole world see
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus
