I've learned my lesson once and for all.

He who restrains his lips is wise.

                                Proverbs 10:19

Struggling to be wise.

             

Flashbacks of 2008

2008.

gone

It's 2009!

Looking back,

I nearly can't believe the things that happen in 2008.

I can't express the joy i had in 2008.

It's my best year yet.

'Cause i came to know God.

Last year was 2008 if you still think this year is.=)

Last year I started it with going to 3TA3 in school, and met Sean and Gavin. 

 They rocked my life.

To the MAX.

Won't go to the details, 

but I sincerely thank Sean and Gav, for making my life so joyful, you guys are a blessing,

probably one of the best blessing God gave me.

The years before I know these 2 brothers, i always felt left out. You guys make me feel so good, so cared for.

Then on a school day, Sean invited me to his church. Since then i started to go to church once again. And slowly came to know God more and more. 

Then there was youth camp, it was the best camp I've ever attended.

Not only was it fun, it made me grow spiritually, to know more about God.

Oh yeah, and Master Life, helped me to learn how to be God's disciple, 

I need to thank God and also Daniel for that. 

You're awesome.

In 2008, the best thing that happened was I really came to know God.

And that really put a purpose in my life, and made it more and more meaningful.

And for the people out there who haven't know him.

He is Good and He is God.

He loves me and He loves you.

more than you can imagine.

Just wanna post some pictures.

See how beautiful the world God created is?

Under the moonlight

The sky was so clear, yet, no stars were there to decorate it. 

Leaving the moon to shine by itself.

I took another step, moving further and further away. Every step was marked with a footprint, on the inch deep snow. The street was empty, as usual on a winter night. My body was getting weaker and weaker, every step took more and more effort. I looked up, the trees were leafless, snow were covering them as if it were a coat. The voices of laughter and merriness was fading, and it was getting darker and darker. The dim street light wasn't really serving it's purpose, or was my eyelids getting heavy and heavier?

I continued walking, the ice cold wind gushing against my face did not help at all, and it kept on coming, showing no mercy. My legs failed me, and I fell kneeling on the snow bed. Struggling to breathe, every breath froze my lungs. With my last bit of energy, I crawled to a corner, leaned at the brick-red wall, and curled myself up. Remembering the shelter I had, with comfortable heat and everything i needed,  and the decision to walk out,                            cut my heart.

Tears were dropping from my eyes, slowly. When they reached the ground, they were already turned to ice. The snow didn't care about my tears, and kept falling, showing no compassion. As the air grew thinner and colder, I looked up at the crescent moon, glowing by itself. Slowly, some clouds veiled it, and that was the last light, the last glow, I saw.

Life is like a thin glass,

So vulnerable,

So fragile.

A glass rose,

beautiful,

yet with no smell.

How easily it can be dropped,

and shattered.

Moulding back seems,

impossible.

A far dream,

A distant star,

A mirage.

Just when we reach for it,

it disappears.

Vapourises.

Wishing for an impossible wish,

Glancing back at the shattered pieces,

The heart breaks,

and the soul grieves.

Under the moonlight.

I wish the Best for you

I was skimming through my iTunes library and remembered this song i downloaded a few months back.

Gavin and I kept singing it in school last time, made Sean nuts. 

Well, here it is.

give it a try

How long can we wait here
To say goodbye? 
The words once they're spoken
Are words that we can't take

Back to where we were, before
Things got in the way
Life gets so confusing
When you know what you're losing

You
Me
Why can't we see that there's
More to love than we'll ever know
Sometimes you're closer when you're
Letting go
I wish the best for you
I wish the best for you

We'll both regret the hurting
That we will do
You'll learn to forget me
And I'll try
I'll try to forget... 

You
Me
Why can't we see that there's
More to love than we'll ever know
Sometimes you're closer when you're
Letting go
I wish the best for you
I wish the best

If you ever need a place that you can run to
I'll be here, I'll be here

You
Me
Why can't we see that there's
More to love than we'll ever know
Sometimes you're closer when you're
Letting go
I wish the best for you
I wish the best for you

Winter Inside.

Walking on the Street,

Everything's blurred.

Can't see a soul,

Can't feel a thing.

Winter breeze,

Ever so chilling.

Glazed eyes,

Leaving only nothingness.

A cold fire,

Glowing dimly.

  Dimmer,

                                                                                    Dimmer,                                                                             and

Dimmer

                                            

                                                                 Alone in the                                                corner,

Curled up.

On the snow bed    helpless,

Suffocating.

As hollowness creeps in,

Devouring all that is within.

I know I shouldn't be writing this.

The Price for Sin

Here,

A very nice and touching video clip from the passion of Christ.

Christmas Isn't Christmas until it's Christmas is in your heart!

Oh man, I'm getting so happy!
Christmas is nearing!
Woohoo!
Christmas is practically the best day of the year!
agree? Agree?!

It just feels so soothing, so calm, so peaceful, and Silent night is resounding in my head.

Okay, anyway, please bear with me till the end of the post ok? To the end! xD

Christmas Carols! awesome 'la'!
Ok, firstly. Jingle Bells!


Secondly, Christmas Candles!


Thirdly, Christmas Carols!


Fourthly, Christmas Trees!


Fiftly ( if there is such a word) Christmas Decorated City!
Nice right?




But then do you know the true meaning of Christmas?

Well i think a lot of you have heard it but I'm still gonna say it,
So bear with me for a while. xD

Like what I said at the top of the post, please finish reading this post ok?

Ok, so on Christmas, Jesus was born, and that was the start of us getting salvation.



You know sometimes we do some stuff and feel bad for it? Well, we know it's wrong, and the wrong things that we do are called sins. And Jesus took away all our sins.



Okay, so i bet ur saying in ur heart: yeah yeah i know i know, heard this loads of times d.

But meditate on this, he didn't just die for our sins.
Before he was crucified on the cross,



He was tortured,
How? the guards made a crown from thorns, and pressed it hard on his forehead, if i use a needle to prick you, you'd probably scream already, so imagine the amount of pain Jesus felt.
And not only that, he was hit, so many times, and was forced to carry the heavy wooden cross and walk to the calvary. The movie The passion of Christ shows it, so if u wana know more about how Jesus was tortured, go watch it, it's saddening.




He was humiliated, betrayed.
Have you ever had a friend, you love him so much, (love as in friendly love) but he suddenly turns his back on you, betrays you, talk bad about you?
Jesus was betrayed by his very own people, by his disciples, he was humiliated by the guards, spit on, yet, he persisted over it, because he was doing it for all of us, because he loves us.




He died a painful death.
You know the most painful part of Jesus being crucified, was not just getting nailed by big fat nails over his hand and feet, it was also when they were rising the cross up, he was hanging with all the pressure on the nails in his feet and hands. imagine that. If i hang you up with just rope on ur hands and feet, would that hurt? Imagine nails!





Can you see it?
The love Jesus has for us?
So Christmas isn't just about all the decorations and all, it's about remembering the day that Jesus came to die, for OUR sins.

Because of Love.

Do you sometimes feel unloved?
Don't because, God is there, and He loves you, he loves all of us, more than anyone.


=)
