Hard times

Is the rain falling from the sky keeping you from singing?

Is that tear fallen from your eye because the wind is stinging?

[chorus]

Don't you fret now, child.

Don't you worry.

The rain's to help you grow so don't try to hurry the storm along.

The hard times make you strong.

Don't you know the seed would never grow if there were never showers?

And though the rain might bring a little pain, just look at all the flowers!

[chorus]

I know how long the day can seem when storm clouds hide His face

.And if the rain dissolves your dreams, just remember His amazing grace!

Don't you know the sun is always there even when the rain falls?

Don't you know the Son will always care when He hears your voice call?

[chorus]

the song that we learnt in MG.it never fails to remind me that i am never alone.

to a certain extent..
i think a part of a part of me has died.
the part that tells me to trust in pple entirely and expect from them.
expectations that they wouldnt fail me.
which is good i guess.
cos now i dont get disappointed so easily.
cos i didnt expect that much in the first place.
but at the same time...i feel like im growing up.
hmm.

i shall stop expecting SO much horizontally..
but expect vertically.

held in Your hands..i know i wouldnt fall.

what do i say?
i have nothing to say anymore.
im walking away now.

i owe enting alot of money.
50 cents for your thoughts.

You are beautiful beyond description.too wonderful for words.

worship was fantastic yesterday.
peiwen did a good job.
and so did enting and the whole worship team.

happy 25th birthday junbin!

God is great and His praise fills the earth..fills the heavens.
thank You for bringing me through a gruelling thursday yet again.
thank You for the stars as well.
i felt happy when i looked at them tonight.
You make me smile.

my sister hopes i put on 5 kg.
cos i was eating ritter sport cornflake chocolate in my room.
and i didnt tell her.
i told her the clue was when i went "AHH!!its melted!!"
but i guess she didnt catch the clue.
hmm.

i love ritter sport cornflake chocolate.

bought it today to make myself feel better.
cos i felt like i was dressed like a tour guide today.
wore my green flowery top.
grey pants.
and my shoes!
i dont like wearing shoes to school.
so hard to match.
im whiney today.

i love it when my dad's hand slips on the driving wheel and he horns at unsuspecting victims.
never fails to crack me up.

being a good girl.
and trying to do some work..so that i will not die in the following weeks.

i'll only talk if need be.
and from then on then..ermm..i'm just myself.

jon and nick were so nice as to walk me to my seminar room.
then i went in..-hands were cold and all-
and so..i went in..
there was this table of 4 girls.
then i asked one of them "is that our tutor?"
okk..not that im BIMBOTIC or what..but the guy in front was surrounded by pple with qns..and like..who asks qns before class right..so i thought it was the previous tutor.
haha.
ok.
so the girl said yes..and i told the tutor that i didnt have a grp and all..
and he asked if anyone wants me to be in their grp.
and the grp of girls invited me in!!
yay!
i was so happy la..
