clean hands pure heart
lessons i've learnt during church camp1. i need to pray that God will give me the spirit of humility. being not proud is not humility. humility has another element to it.
2. others first, myself last.
3. patience. God puts different people into our paths. some gets on my nerves, but Lord, help me to love and be patient.
4. having fun is not everything.
5. God has forgiven all the horrible countless sins i have in my life. thank you Lord.
Original church camp song:
we bow our hearts
we bend our knees
O Spirit come make us humble
we turn our eyes from evil things
O Lord we cast down our idols
so give us clean hands
give us pure hearts
let us not lift our souls to another
give us clean hands O God
give us pure hearts
let us not lift our souls to another
O God let us be
a generation that seeks
seeks your face
O God of Jacob
O God let us be
a generation that seeks
that seeks your face
O God of Jacob
give us clean hands
O give us clean hands
give us pure hearts
O give us pure hearts
give us clean hands
let us not lift our souls to another
O God O God
we cry out

latest happenings
Church camp is finally here. would be a good break and a good time of learning God's word and a good time to spend with church friends. am looking forward to it. too bad we couldn't extend our stay... but it's ok, we'll have chance next time. after we earn some money, and when we grow a little older and when we have more time, and when our mothers trust us to go on our own.just got back from Romans Trail. learnt today about the meaning of "God gave them over". he did not cause them to sin, but it means that the sinners were already immersed in sin, and God just allowed them to continue in their own sinful ways. it wasn't that they were initially good, then God allowed them to become bad.
went to Sentosa with PL,J,J and 5 students. 2 of them really reminded me of AH. super same pattern... very friendly and very noisy.. one of them acted in home run... there were some ppl who walked by, saw her, and asked her to take a pic with them... the other 3 were quite fun to be with too. we ate ben and jerry's ice cream. yum yum! and we sat cinemania... not scary! especially the going down part... escape theme park wins!
my theory teacher just told me something.... why like that!

that day
i can recall the day (abt a year ago) when i went for blacks PT training. i hadn't been training, so my stamina was very horrible. it was then that i got to know J better. she was the one encouraging me along when i felt so tired and when i almost wanted to give up. i was really feeling horrible that i couldn't keep up with the rest like i used to. she kept telling me to breathe and to stand up straight. she kept saying, 'you can do it, come on!' that was one of the few times i talked to her and those were the words she said that i can remember till today. after the PT session, i went up to her and said, "thanks". coz she really encouraged me alot as i ran. she just smiled and said something like, 'no problem'. she was so cheerful, always the one cracking jokes, she's a very very very nice senior. but now... captain of singapore national rugby team, i pay my respects to you.
