Joyfully (:
You lead me by the waters still
You lay me down to rest upon your faithfulness
My shepherd, simply take my hand
Your song restores my soul
For Your name, You make me whole
Joyfully I lift my voice in praise to Thee
With heaven watching over me, I raise my hands up high
Your Majesty gently washes over me
Makes my heart begin to sing joyfully
No shadow ever shall I fear
Your peace, my heart will k now
My cup it overflows
Your goodness chases after me
Your mercy and Your grace will be my dwelling place
Joyfully I lift my voice in praise to Thee
With heaven watching over me I raise my hands up high
Your Majesty gently washes over me
Makes my heart begin to sing joyfully
I will sing from the mountain top
I will sing, I am overcome, I will sing making melodies
I will sing from the valley low
I will sing because of Your love I will sing
You're my King, I will sing
Joyfully I lift my voice in praise to Thee
With heaven watching over me I raise my hands up high
Your Majesty gently washes over me
Makes my heart begin to sing joyfully
Joyfully, joyfully, joyfully

soaring on eagles' wings above the stormtoday is one of the most interesting days at work. supposedly a safety audit was to be carried out, so attachment students (me and chuanhan) had to make ourselves scarce. we left at 11 am and i suggested going to the central library. (oh, btw i no longer hate NUS. in fact i loove it :D ) This library is probably the most coolest and bestest library in Sg cus it is hardly crowded, spacious (ok maybe cus its recess) and state-of-the-art facilities (like seats in between shelves) . and they have books dating back to 1966, old but cool. CH brought me to FASS canteen to eat laksa! haha great but too small portion.
We had a very interesting conversation (which prolly made my day interesting). at first we were talking about our decisions for choosing whatever course after results. (our 1st choice is med) then i told him that i'm not worried about the results/what course we go to, but there's this sense of restedness and peace because of God(which i really really did feel this week) and he mentioned that he was amazed, after his friend accepted Christ who also wanted to do med, she became peaceful too, like not worried about the future. and later,he told me how he is turned off by some christians who were hypocritical, like saying gambling is bad, God hates people who gamble... etc like untrue stuff that unfortunately was created by christians. so i began telling him about the truth, that God loves each of us, christian or not, no matter how much we sinned. because nothing is able to separate us from the love of God. etcetc. and then he said something like wow youre good,you can become a preacher already, i was like -_- and at the same time proud because i didnt expect that God would use me in this way. on the bus i thought about that and wished that i said more :( but i pray that my heart would be even more humbled by this experience and God will help me to be even more confident, with more opportunities to share the word, naturally :)
anyway, my desire is that God will be with me, whether i go to nursing or medicine, become a doctor or nurse. I wouldnt want to be a doctor and not have God with me. If not i'ld rather be a nurse, and enjoy God's presence every single day. I will go where the Lord leads. He is my sheperd. John 10:3-4
oh and in the end the auditors did not turn up. so we kind of left for nothing. I complained about that but i realised i did have a great time knowing more bout CH and sharing a bit about Christ with him. (sorry Lord!) i take back my words.
i took leave tmr so that tuition could be done this week. alex allows me to take leave on friday too. something like 'freeandeasy'. i wanna prepare for enc camp! encounter God woots :)))
forbid it Lord, that i should boast
Save in the death, of Christ my God
