Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel You
I need to hear You
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place
Where I find peace again
You are the strength
That keeps me walking
You are the hope
That keeps me trusting
You are the life
To my soul
You are my purpose
You're everything
And how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better than this
You calm the storms
And You give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You steal my heart
And You take my breath away
Would You take me in
Would You take me deeper, now
And how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better than this
And how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better than this
Cause you're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything, everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
Everything, everything...
When how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would you tell me how could it be
Any better than this
Oh And how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better any better than this
And how can I stand here with You
And not be moved by You
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better than this
Would You tell me how could it be
Any better than this....

When God speaks, LISTEN
I was very distracted recently due to some acts of some people who behaves as if they are so good, trying to storm into my life and create a mess out of it. I should salute them, cause they make it. Just like what's written in the book of Job, they can turn my world upside down, but they can't hurt me and push me away from my faith with the Almighty.I was indeed weak and I was swayed by their actions. I try to hide myself from everything. Simply I just want to run away. *sad sad*Well, God is good, isn't He?He will NEVER shortchanged anyone who loves Him, and He will prosper those who put their life, faith and trust in Him.Today, the Lord spoke to me.
He said,
"
Wonderful, beautiful moments can be CREATED but storms and trails are UNPREDICTED; they are just UNPREDICTABLE. Don't find someone who can enjoy created moments with you but rather someone who can brace through unpredictable time together, holding your hands with you." =]]
How true yeah!
When I heard the Lord speaks that, I was saying AMEN.
We all want to find someone who simply bring us smile and make us happy all the days of our lives, and it can be done with efforts, but can we find someone who can walk with us through painful times and make us smile? PONDER IT FOLKS! I just heard too many things recently. It turns me off, yet it makes me laugh.The childish, immature acts and the way of seeking attention just prove how wise you are. I hate to see myself so critical, but I can't help to just comment cause is really ridiculous.
Thank God, He is still the Judge. Anyway, a reminder to myself and to my readers:Remember don't try to fit into someone's life for the best of him/her, but fit into someone's life to bring the best out of you and him/her.
Never compromise to the extreme of losing who you are and never dominate to prove how great you are. PS : I AM SINGLE AND I AM AVAILABLE AND THERE ARE a few PEOPLE AFTER ME!

FAITH - ABRAHAM FAITHI need to be like Abraham, not to be bothered by facts and truths like Thomas, but simply by only the promises of God that He had set for my life. Abraham did not look at what he had that's impossible, but he trusted God who is possible. Indeed God is faithful and His word never fail.
Do I have that faith today, to just hold onto the promises of God that was set just for me?I DON'T KNOW!I remembered a Pastor once said to me,
"Daphne, you may not a height of 5 feet, but you do own a faith of 5 feet!" =]]
Real faith is built on the spiritual truths of God’s promises.Do I have that REAL FAITH now?While we don’t deny the problems, pain and other negative symptoms of life (for they may be very real), we look beyond them to God’s Word. Real faith says,
"If God says it is so, it is so!"
Period.Head-faith is just an intellectual acceptance, or mental assent, of certain facts and doctrines. That is not true Bible faith. It won’t produce results or changes in the lives of people. But heart-faith will always produce a definite change in people.
Romans 10:10 says, "For with the heart one believes unto righteousness."
Grant me that FAITH to just trust in Your Word.
PERIOD.

Power of Your LoveThis is a song that the Lord puts in my heart today. This is a old song that I used to sing when I was really young in the Lord. Today, this song speaks so much more to me than it used to be.
Lord I come to You (I humble before you Lord)
Let my heart be changed, renewed (Change me and renew me as only you can)
Flowing from the grace (By your grace and mercy)
That I have found in You (Only in You will there be abundance of grace)
And Lord I have come to know (You opened my eyes)
The weaknesses I see in me (To look at life differently)
Will be stripped away (Because of you, all these will be gone)
By the power of Your love (Just so of Your PERFECT LOVE)
Hold me close (Bring me to that Holy of Holies)
Let Your love surround me (Allow Your PERFECT LOVE to overwhelm me)
Bring me near (Guide me to where You are)
Draw me to Your side (Put me by Your side)
And as I wait (I will wait just on You)
I will rise up like the eagle (To be lifted up like eagle)
And I will soar with You (I want to soar with You)
Your Spirit leads me on (Come Holy Spirit)
In the power of Your love (Surrounded by Your Love)
Lord unveil my eyes (Open my eyes once more)
Let me see You face to face (I want to see you face to face)
The knowledge of Your love (To know and understand Your Love)
As You live in me (Come into me)
And Lord renew my mind (Change my mind)
As Your will unfolds in my life (I will OBEY)
In living every day (Everyday is Yours)
By the power of Your love (Captured by You)
This is a song that speaks so much to me. =]]
SO MUCH I NEED TO SAY, BUT SO FEW WORDS I CAN USE TO EXPRESS.
HELP ME LORD

1st Death Anniversary
It just seems as if it was yesterday where I set my life to honor God for SOT (School Of Theology). It just seems as if it was yesterday when I rushed between Jurong West St 91 and NUH (National University Hospital). It simply just seemed it was yesterday. Tomorrow, 5 April 09 marked as the 1st Death Anniversary for him. I remembered he left without a word, without a tear. Without anything he just left. =[[It just seemed so real where I can still hear the cries of granny, the tears in all our faces. Gosh, the emotions were just overwhelming. BUTI know, this is over. I DON'T DWELL IN THAT ANYMORE.YesI am (We are) sad, but still life goes on. =]]As a family, we no longer cry over the pain, we smiled over the lost, because we all believe, life could be much better for him in the other side of this world. We truly, deeply, madly missed him, but we all believe and wish him all the best. My family had come out with a sum of money just to do some rituals for him. Though I don't believe, but I still want to wish him all the best.
On behalf of the family :
Thank you for being a part of us for the past 42 years of your lives.Thank you for cheering us and giving us the strength.Thank you for being the pillar when grandpa passed away. Thank you for being so wonderful a man.Thank you for leaving a legacy for us all to follow. Thank you. We miss you and we truly love you all the days of our lives. PS : if you want to come down and "pay a visit" or just to accompany me, do drop me a sms, so that I can give you my address. =]]
love,
daphne
