Arms of My Saviour
Byebye civilization HAHA. Finally, its time to get my head shaved n become a MAN, after waiting for so long. Perhaps I shld do a reflection of the past few months.
Oh not like I have alot to share. In fact, there prob is so much that I'd want to bury and not bring up anymore. Stupid life. How am I feeling now? I'm good! But there are just some things where you look back at and...sigh, cringe, punch e air etc.
Then again, I know my God specialises in that. My God specialises in taking the parts of our life which we wanna dump away; the disappointments and hurts and regrets and using them for total awesome crap which we cannot imagine. I have no idea what and how God is gonna do in my life; absolutely not very outstanding and with financial crisis looming; hmmm i know that He specialises in using the ordinary. Ordinary to do the impossible.
I'm so glad we have a calling. Because we have a calling, I know that I have a 'space' on earth tasked for me to do, and I wont be like jobless n juz lost somewhere not knowing what the future holds. I know that every second in my life has been called and planned by Him, and not a mili-second is wasted. That includes the crap that we go thru. Its not without reason.
Joseph's story is gonna anchor my army life as a model. Firstly, he was 2 years in prison. I'll be in prison for 2 years. HAHA. No la not so bad, but abit the less freedom huh. But whereever he went, he did his best and stayed faithful n righteous. And God's favour was so on him, even in prison. And that was exactly the turning point in his life!
Joseph had a dream. But telling it to His brothers got him to serious trouble. Or was it part of God's plan? Looking back, was the dream from God? Sure is. Did he know at that time? NO! But what matters are the faithful small steps of obedience you take, and whether its God's dream fro you or not, nothing stop God's will for your life.
I like major changes. Cos they feel like new beginnings; new chances to start over. And in army, to just meet people you've never met before! People who dunno you or your past haha. K i shall stop talkin like a drug addict, n maybe I shld stop complaining about my 'past' haha. Oh well looking back is always depressing. Hmm unless I start to see God's hand in it. Cos He is the Great Engineer.
JOY. My theme for army! I thought joy was the best thing to pray for last time cos i thought that no matter what happened, we will automatically be joyful. HAHAHAHAHA. WHAM. WRONG DUDE. Joy has to be LEARNT. We shall learn joy in times of darkness. Hmm ok maybe i shldnt pray for that in e end. Kiddin la.
I scared I become ahbeng. I said this before poly; passed stage 1. Now's like a jump to stage 10.
I'll leave w the chorus of Lincoln's song. Blusey emo tune, but how comforting. So new not even on youtube yet, but you find it (oh if anyone still reads this) soon hopefully.
The Arms of My Saviour
There’s no other place that I’d rather be
Than safe in the arms the arms of my Savior
There’s no other place where I can be free
So I run to the arms the arms of my Savior
My heart reaches to those who have been disappointed with God and are still, deep in their hearts, desiring to run back to Him, but doubts and old hurts n fears push em away. Cos i've been there. And it felt like I lived without Him for a while. But life without God is? HELL. It sucks without Him. I see atheists and cant imagine how empty their life is. How meaningless their life is. One even said, " I do not believe in Jesus, but I sure miss Him."
WHAM. How sad is that?
If you miss Jesus, no pressure to run back. Run back when ya ready, cos His arms are wide open and waiting for you fren. You may have disappointments for a while, but in e end, where else better to be then in the arms of our Saviour? Where else could we go besides His arms of love? Cos outside of that is deceit, lies, suffering and pain. Inside is redemption and future hope.
All e best to everyone! Esp e A level babies at this period, lets hope God spoke to ya'll bout the future if u read this :D In His hands!
Byebye everyone.

good to know that you're holdin' up well in army. train your biceps, then can become hulk for Jesus. ahaha.
press on friend!
btw, it was a very thoughtful post (: especially the part about how God has a different calling for us all, knowing that all that we go through will not come to nought. you've been an encouragement even though times are hard sometimes. but rejoice, we shall! for we're in the arms of our saviour, yes? (:
gonna leave you with a beautiful song. hope it blesses you!
HYMN - Brooke Fraser
If to distant lands I scatter
If I sail to farthest seas
Would you find and firm and gather 'til I only dwell in Thee?
If I flee from greenest pastures
Would you leave to look for me?
Forfeit glory to come after
'Til I only dwell in Thee
If my heart has one ambition
If my soul one goal to seek
This my solitary vision 'til I only dwell in Thee
That I only dwell in Thee
'Til I only dwell in Thee
