My church wrote a new Christian song. It goes like this.
STANDING IN AWE OF YOUR GRACE
SETTING MY FEET IN YOUR WAYS
ENTERING INTO YOUR PRESENCE
TO BEHOLD YOU FACE TO FACE
GOD OF ALL HEAVEN AND EARTH
HOLDING ME IN YOUR EMBRACE
UNFAILING LOVE THAT SURROUNDS ME
OH..GOD I STAND AMAZED
MY JESUS, MY LORD
YOU’RE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE
WHEREVER YOU GO
WANNA BE BY YOUR SIDE
NO LONGER I
BUT CHRIST LIVING IN ME
SERVING YOU FOR ALL ETERNITY
MY EYES SET ON YOU
IN THIS RACE THAT I RUN
NO LONGER MY WAYS
LET YOUR WILL BE DONE
MAKE ME A SERVANT
MY HEART'S EVER TRUE
CLINGING TO THE CROSS
I'LL FOLLOW YOU
I'LL FOLLOW YOU
the parts that really spoke to me were
"No longer my ways, Let Your will be done" with regards to the relationship problems im hving with my friend(s) I've decided that I shall let God handle it. its not what i think is right. but what He thinks is right. after all, its "No longer I but Christ living in me". Jesus gave me greater meaning to live.
Lost sth precious to me recently. its a pen. but God told me to build treasures in heaven not on earth. for those are the treasures that really last.
I realised that sometimes, i set too high expectations of people. its really wrong. i mean i dont meet the expectations of others all the time either. I live for Christ. I want to live such a life and find the love I need from Him and from the things that I love doing.
Jesus "make me a servant, my heart's ever true. Clinging to the Cross I'll follow you."

theres been some stuff running through my mind. other than the Krebs cycle, Boyle's Law and economies of scale. been causing me to take doubly longer time to fall asleep. i guess its wad teenagers go thru. the time when we struggle to be sure of how we feel about a particular situation. and somehow you go back and forth btw nonchalance and being greatly affected. its quite annoying actually. i know im being super vague. but i just need to let this out.
sometimes something may seem to be heading towards a certain direction. but one circumstance alone can turn the tables around. and i will drift back to nonchalance.or trying to ignore the situation.
anyway, the only reason that i have the time to think about all these is cos my CTs are over. for now. really glad. i feel that God has really blessed me throughout the entire week. despite the fact tt i didnt manage to finish studying. He really helped me. I could feel Him prompting answers at the back of my mind and telling me theres sth wrong with this answer. and it turns out that there really was sth wrong with my answers!
ok back to the annoying situation. its really getting on my nerves. and i cant avoid it and i have to face it almost everyday. I'm really praying to God for discernment. My cgl said something relevant today. That i cannot let my emotions rule my life. thats just the lowest way of living. I simply have to choose what is right and live by it. I believe soon I will sort out the right mindset i should have regarding my situation. yes. XD
to God be the glory!

I must be really stressed. I've never gotten headaches due to studying before. recently, its becoming more and more frequent. This really can't go on. I dislike summation esp. recurrence relations. seriously. especially when i cant get the answer. lol. very immature i must say. haiz. its quite frustrating.
Thanks goes to my cg mates and close friends for reminding me tht God is indeed here for me. If God is for me, who can be against me. Maybe thats why having friends of the same faith is very important. they uplift you. i need to get over these and move on. and i need to get more sleep. ive been faithfully sleeping at 1 - 3am every night for the past week.
Father God, I need You so much.

"You quieted the raging oceans with their pounding waves and silenced the shouting of nations" - Psalm 65:7 (NLT)
"He who heeds the word wisely will find good, And whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he." - Proverbs 16:20 (NKJV)
"Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Chirst Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you." - 1 Peter 5:6-10 (NKJV)
"...narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." - Matthew 7:14 (NKJV)
"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you." - Matthew 6:33
"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." - Matthew 6:34
thank you Jesus.
