- I believe -
Have you ever reached a rainbow's end?
And Did you find your pot of gold?
Ever catch a shooting star?
Tell me how high did you soar?
Ever felt like you were dreaming,
Just to find that you're awake?
And the magic that surronds you,
Can lift you up, and guide you on your way.
I can see it in the stars across the sky.
Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before
Now I finally realize.
You see I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive,
And finally, I believe
When you look out in the distance
You see it never was that far
ohh no Heaven knows your existance
and wants you to be everything you are
ooh theres a time for every soul to fly
its in the eyes of every child
its the hope the love to save the world & ohhh we should never let it go
I believe in the impossible,
If I reach deep within my heart
Overcome many obstacles,
Won't let this dream just fall apart
You see I strive to be the very best,
Shine my light for all to see
Cause anything is possible,
When you believe ( I Can see it in the stars across the sky)
Yeah, yeah (Dreamt a hundred thousand dreams before)
Now I finally realize
You see I've waited all my life for this moment to arrive
And finally I believe
ohhhhhhh yeah I believe
Oooooh Yeah Yeah (Love keeps lifting me higher)
I believe in love (Love keeps lifting me higher)
higher higher higher higher
(Love keeps lifting me higher)
yeah-hea yeah-hea hea hea hea yeah
(Love keeps lifting me higher)
Love keeps lifting, love keeps lifting me higher
(Love keeps lifting me higher)
You oughtta try it for yourself
lifting me higher yeah yeah
(love keeps liftin me higher)

(love keeps lifting me higher)
love yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(love keeps lifting me higher)
higher higher higher higher higher
(love keeps liftin me higher)

My ever faithful one,
*your grace abounds so deeply within me.
Into your hands, i commit again
With all i am
I live for you lord
You hold my world
in the palm of your hand
and im yours forever
Jesus i believe in you
Jesus i belong to you
you're the reason that i live
the reason that i sing with all i am
i'll walk with you wherever you go
through tears and joy
i'll trust in you
and i will live in all of your ways and your promises forever
i will worship i will worship you forever
Wednesday, September 22, 2004 I finally realised.
Posted by Philothea` @ Wednesday, September 22, 2004 | Today shall be an exception. Usually, i wld be too lazy to blog bout the events that took place in the day.
I seriously duno wad wrong's wif me earlier this afternoon. I wanted to go engineer skool but headed for IT skool instead, wanted to go level 1 but i walked outta the lift at level 3 etc...simply went the opposite direction from where I intended to go. Priscilla followed me around and we were just laughing all along. Anyhow, I am glad that I am done wif C&E! my supposingly optical illusion final project turns out to be so crappy, looks more like sum huge birthday card. heez. but i guess it's good enuff considering the fact that i completed it within an hr. gosh. some peeps thought it looked nice. Oh wellz, travelled down to bishan after that to meet MeiQi. Zyann, Christine and other ND peeps were there as well. Everyone else seemed to be mugging for their final yr examz. Thank God! I'm pardoned from the memorising, studying, squeezing facts into my brains kinda exercise. Oh, i met Aunt Susan and Jeremy along the way. Anyway, I am so amused by the existence of "Bird club"! lol. Meiqi used to be part of it in pri skool whr she trimmed birds' feathers, fed them etc. Since when there was such a cca?
Rushed down to granny's hse after that and lent my digi cam to uncle samuel. Tink he's having sum archery competition. I wanna play archery again! The first and last time i tried was in Pri6 wif Emmeline, Ryan and Wendy. Maybe, during the holis, I shall do so.
I may seem to be equivocal at times, that not what i wished to be, especially when the ephemeral nature of life's pleasures dawned upon me. I was rather disgruntled at myself. But not now :D
Christ is still at work in me!
"being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus" -Philippians 1:6
Heart of worship
Posted by Philothea` @ Wednesday, September 22, 2004 | when the music fades, all is stripped away
and i simply come
longing just to bring something that's of worth
that will bless your heart
i bring you more than a song, for a song in itself
is not what you have required
you search much deeper within through the way things appear
you're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship
and it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus
I'm sorry Lord for the thing i've made it
when it's all about you
it's all about you, Jesus
King of endless worth
no one could express how much you deserve
though i'm weak and poor
all i have is yours, every single breath
hmm, dat's all my heart has to say rite nw.
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
sumhow, the meaning of this song, as simple as it sounds, is the very truth that hammered into my being. I am thankful for everything that happened for the past few days, weeks and even months. I am grateful for the lessons I've learnt be it the hard way, sometimes i fall but you picked me up. Lord, may I not take anything (esp. people around me) for granted. If I ever do, open the eyes of my heart, that I may see in your light again. Amen.
Saturday, September 18, 2004 I run to you
Posted by Philothea` @ Saturday, September 18, 2004 | .Running After You. by Planet Shakers
Your Word is a light unto my path
Your Love guides me through my darkest night
And even though sometimes Your ways
I cannot understand
I’ll never walk away
because my future’s
In Your hands
I don’t care what people will say I’m running after You
I won’t turn back and go their way Coz I’m running after You
Don’t matter what may come my way I’m running after you
It’s You I’m following today

Just sang this for praise in church 2dae. A song with a funny tune but extremely meaningful lyrics. Anyway, I felt so much better after toking to zing. I'm determined to let go and embrace wad lies ahead. Yeah, Lord, I'm running after you! The familiar fellowship song that every kid would learn in children church is resounding in my mind: With Christ as the vessel, I can smile at the storms! Everything, everything's alrite coz my saviour's walking with me! Cheers to my road ahead.

weekends rocks my socks
Posted by Philothea` @ Saturday, September 18, 2004 | Just returned home from the mandarin hotel not long ago, attended some CROWBAR awards ceremony cum dinner. It was quite an eye opener, kinda inspired by certain design works but i was still bored. Or rather awkard surrounded by unfamiliar faces. Exhausted. Rejected the offer to catch The Cinderella story though i really wanted to watch it all along.
Anyway, I nearly forgot that it's my beloved Zing's bdae! lol. twenty yrs old nw. My birthday alarm is faithfully reminding me of xxxx upcoming impt dates.
I just can't wait for the semester break to arrive! Now, I just have to bear with the projects deadline and be tenacious, hardworking...wadeva it takes to get through the next 2 weeks. And yes, I shall do my best and leave the rest to God!
Wad coincidence, i met Mallery, Sheila n sum other peeps at macs this afternoon. It's really a small world, well, at least Singapore is an extremely tiny winy dot. I still hope i can bum into Christabelle in skool. sumhow. hmm, off to serious work now.
Thursday, September 16, 2004 I r r e v o c a b l e
Posted by Philothea` @ Thursday, September 16, 2004 | I'm finally blogging! It dawned upon me this monday morning that I'm truly blessed. Ohh, I could just melt in God's amazing love and grace forever more! As we presented our visual diaries during vislit, I realised that my life's pretty interesting as some mentioned their routine based life: sch-projects-out once in awhile/play-eat-sleep. Thank you Jesus, that you found me and gave me a life purpose. I'm not just leting time pass by each day, but I can invest in what amounts to eternity. I couldn't imagine life without you. I love you! I need you! Amen.
Every breath that I take, every moment I'm awake,
h a v e your w a y in m e.
I have decided to blog more often, to record God's faithfulness and remind myself of the wonderful experiences I encountered each day. *grinz
Having spend QT, I shall say goodbye to an aversion to my intransigence,foolishness...wadeva.
I'm diving into the bk of Genesis once again and I must say that God never fails to awaken my heart with his fascinating truth. Through the life of Abraham with those are also mentioned along with him, I see the faithfulness of God. Though Abram had doubts, unbelief and even gave in to the unfavorable circumstances at times, yet, God didn't held back his promises. His love endures forever. of coz, Abraham was responsive to God's promises. He listened to God and obeyed especially in the decisive moments of life. Let it be so in my life as well. My darling Dawn's kinda reminded me thru her msn nick "make me a child again`that I should guard my heart and remember that I am a child of God, dearly love by the almighty, heavenly father! Oh Lord, help me to toddle with you each day...
"...Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy spirit, who is a deposit guranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession..." -Eph 1:13
