still

My colleague invited me to his church for an evening praise with the Korean missionary singers. Was contemplating whether to go as the others weren't able to make it. But at last, I went also. I'm glad I went cause it was an amazing night. We sang for hours.. And as we were singing the song "Still" by Hillsong, it reminds me of the video I saw the night before during a talk organized by Malaysian Nature Society (MNS). Err.. Not really a talk but rather a slide presentation on nesting and some exotic bird species.

The video was about a mother bird covering her young under her wings, shielding them from wind and rain. As I sing this song, I felt just like the little birds. So weak and frail. That I need to hide under the wings for protection.

Hide me now
Under your wings
Cover me within your mighty hand

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
I will be still and know you are God

Find rest my soul
In Christ alone
Know his power
In quietness and trust

Thank You Lord that when I am weak, You covered me within Your mighty hand. Help me to be still in times like this.

promise

Last Sunday, pastor shared how he felt when he heard about the rise of petrol price on Wednesday. Many are unhappy with the sudden change of decision. Empty promises.. Though men may break their promises, but there is One Person who never breaks His promises. There is a faithful, promise-keeping God in heaven.

As he was sharing this, I was reminded of the wonderful promise on waiting.

Even youths will faint and be weary,
and the young will fall exhausted;
but those who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength,
they shall mount up with wings like eagles,
they shall run and not be weary,
they shall walk and not faint.

Indeed, waiting is the hardest thing to do. Hope and patience is what I need as I learn to wait. Though i may not be soaring right now, but Lord, help me to walk and not faint.

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me on this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

my cubicle

My Cubicle is a very funny parody of James Blunt's hit song 'You're Beautiful'. The song was written by Keith Hughes and performed by Jym Britton. Click here for lyrics.
