---
We rode into town the other day Just me and my daddy He said I'd finally reached that age And I could ride next to him on a horse That of course was not quite as wide
We heard a crowd of people shouting And so we stopped to find out why And there was that man that my dad said he loved But today there was fear in his eyes
So I said daddy why are they screaming Why are the faces of some of them beaming? Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe? I'll bet that crown hurts him more then he shows Daddy please can't you do something? He looks as though he's gonna cry You said he was stronger then all of those guys Daddy please tell me why? Why does everyone want him to die?
Later that day the sky grew cloudy And daddy said I should go inside Somehow he knew things would get stormy Boy was he right But I could not keep from wondering If there was something he had to hide So after he left I had to find out I was not afraid of getting lost So I followed the crowds To a hill where I knew men had been killed And I heard a voice come from the cross
And it said father why are they screaming? Why are the faces of some of them beaming? Why are they casting their lots for my clothes? This crown of thorns hurts me more then it shows Father please can't you do something? I know that you must hear my cry's I thought I could handle a cross of this size Father remind me why? Why does everyone want me to die? When will I understand why?
My precious son I hear them screaming I'm watching the face of the enemy beaming But soon I will clothe you in robes of my own Jesus this hurts me much more then you know But this dark hour I must do nothing Though I've heard your unbearable cries The power in your blood Destroys all of the lies Soon you'll see past their unmerciful lies Look there below See the child Trembling by her father's side Now I can tell you why She is why you must die

Daddy, I know you know what I'm going to say..
but i'm gona say it anyway...
It's coming back again.
I don't know me as much as You know me
that much is true.
So whatever I'm feeling now is not really what I think it is, right Daddy?
You know what this stupid feeling really is and I hope you'll explain it to me soon Dad?
>_<
I don't like this feeling especially when I don't know what he's feeling..
You know what I mean :(
Daddy Daddy, help me.
I think I may have let myself into this but can You get me out?
Please? *puppy dog eyes*
I know you will. You wouls.
You never let me down :)
This feeling, its familiar.
and i've had it tons of times.
So much so that I'm starting to get sick of it.
It all ends the same as well.
I get over 'em like it was nothing.
But this one.. this time.. I want it to be different
can it happened?
I know I've asked you to plan one for me..
I'm 100% positive You already have, even before I asked you.
But question is, is he the one?
I know i'm gona ask myself this question 1000000000000 times again in the future.
*sigh*

THANK YOU DADDY!!
the phone is finally taken. I feel better :)
Read Cynthia's blog and they went to celebrate TK's bday. I felt left out. Even though its true that I don't feel like going to places like that.. I can't help feeling left out, you know..
It is a good thing that I'm moving away. Or at least that's what we think.
It's all up to You in the end, you know dad? :)
I feel so tired of entertaining them at times. Even when I'm with them, I can feel like an outsider. I don't dress up like them, I've to make an effort to be a part of them.. and I don't think that's what real friends are, right?
I dunno..maybe You want to teach me something from them? I still don't know what is it if You really do.. I know I'm stubborn. I'll try to change. Remind me constantly k? :)

Studying is not as complicated as working is it dad?
I don't think so either.
Just sit down, concentrate and absorbe.
I always ask you to help me.
Don't get me wrong, you always help
but sometimes it doesn't work and I get fed up.
I usually have problems with the 2nd part of studying.
concentrate.
yeah.
its so hard for me.
I dunno why..
I can do this right daddy?
You'll help me :)
I don't wanna have results like spm.
It was sad.
I want you to work with me this time?
please?
thank you Daddy :)

it hurts
quite a lot.
I'm sorry I love it more then you
I'm sorry.....
****
Just got a call from Kath jie.. feel much better cuz she assured me I'll be getting it soon.
Thank you Dad :)
You always make me feel batter when I'm down.
but i'm still being open minded about this..
won't put too much hope in it. From now on.
Dad, another problem..
I can't stop thinking of him.
that's bad right?
since I don't know him well.
and I'm sure he doesn't feel the same.
I wonder how I can keep on waiting like this.
for the One.
The One you've set for me.
I'll still put my faith in you.
You know the best.

Granddad was admited to hospital yesterday.
High blood pressure I was told.
The normal blood pressure is 120. His pressure went up to 240 the other night.
I didn't realise how bad it was until granddad walked into our house yesterday night.
He looked pale. His footsteps were unsteady.
He had to hold on to the door to walk..
I've never seen ah gong so weak before.
and then I knew it was bad. Real bad.
My granddad is not the religious kind.
He was in fact against the church. The same church his wife, kids and gradkids goes to.
I can say he despise the chruch. Maybe he even despise God.
I dunno.. All I know is he dosen't attend church.
Whenever we prayed as a family, he was nowhere in sight.
I can't help but wonder....
wonder how he manage to stay so normal
dispite being so critically ill..
was God protecting him?
You know, with blood pressure of 240, a person can easily get a stroke.
If granddad had a stroke.. it would be a HUGE problem to our fmaily.
God blessed him.
God protected him.
God still love him.
very much.
Thankyou, Daddy
I love you.

Most probably our family will be moving...
and there's this problem about which chruch we will be attending.
You know, I've been rised in a Chinese Methodist church alll my life.
And yesterday, was in the car with mum, she said she wanted to go to a chinese congregation once we moved to the new place.
Me?
I wasn't very pleased with that idea.. I've had a taste of attending an english congregation a handful of times.. and I really like it.
English sermon somehow speaks to me. I can really relate to it better.
Maybe you'd say that I'm just bias.
I prefer English then Mandrin so I say this.
and I can adapt to Mandrin, no problem but because I keep telling myslfe I don't like it..
I end up really not liking it...
Given a choice I'd jump to a English churchanytime..
but since my Dad loves my mum so much, he always follows her to which chruch she prefers.
And she always choose a chinese congregation.
so our family always goes to a chinese church wheather I like it or not.
I'm not complaing.. I'd like to think I'm not..
since it doesn't matter what language we worship God in, as long as it's the same God.
I'd like to say I love God enough to not mind this language thing...
But is it really wrong to want to go to a congregation which you feel at ease and know you'd really fit in?
Not that I don't fit in a chinese chruch, but whenever sermons are given in chinese, Biblical names of prophats and names of places just sounds so long and boring..
I wish mandrin would appeal to me.. but it dosen't.
I love english.
I love to worship God in english.
To listen to His words in English.
I'm 19 now. Old enough to choose. Almost an adult..
Can I? :(

This was the first time.
The first time I broke down before the laptop.
The first time I felt so appologetic and thankful at the same time.
The first time I cried after listening to a song.
A song so touching that my tears just streamed down uncontrollably.
The first time I cried so hard I didn't even care if I can breath or not.
but if you share the same faith as me, you'd cry too.
if you understand what this song ment.
The first time I heard the words being sung,
'Why is he dressed in that bright purple robe? I'll bet that crown hurts him more then he shows Daddy please can't you do something? He looks as though he's gonna cry You said he was stronger then all of those guys Daddy please tell me why? Why does everyone want him to die?'
In this song, Jesus said:
'why are they screaming? Why are the faces of some of them beaming? Why are they casting their lots for my clothes? This crown of thorns hurts me more then it shows Father please can't you do something? I know that you must hear my cry's I thought I could handle a cross of this size Father remind me why? Why does everyone want me to die? When will I understand why?'
Why by Nichole Nordeman
it made me cry.
it made me wake up.
the lyrics were like a huge slap on my face.,
I've been such a brat all my life.
I've sinned without thinking twice.
yet, He choose to save me from myself.
He knew I can't do it on my own.
He knew if He was to wait for me to enter paradise on my own..it would be impossible.
He couldn't stand the thought of that.
so much so that He choose to do something.
and He did.
He gave up
His golry
His power
His majesty
His life...
for me.
tears came down even stronger at the end
when God told Jesus:
'Look there below See the child Trembling by her father's side Now I can tell you why She is why you must die'
Me.
that child was me..
it was you..
it is everyone..
but here,
I'd like to say it was me..
ME.
Me.
Me.
Me.
I made Him suffer all these..
makes me wonder..
am I that worth it?
Did I let Him down?
if I did..
will he love me again?
I'm so sorry for the things I've done.
Words cannot discribe how sorry I am....
Can I look at your blood stained face
and tell you I'm sorry?
would it be too late?
If I say I love you,
it would not and cannot compare to your love for me
I feel so hopless
The only thing I can do now
Is to serve you.
Serve you with all my heart.
I'll start this Sunday. Sunday School.
I know You've given me the gift to teach children.
and I will not let this gift go to waste.
Thank you, Father
For showing me this beautiful song today.
it was worth every tear.
