my heart is heavy




I'm tired 
I'm worn 
My heart is heavy
From the work it takes to keep on breathing

I've made mistakes 
I've let my hope fail
My soul feels crushed
By the weight of this world
And I know that you can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Cause I'm worn

I know I need 
To lift my eyes up
But I'm too weak
Life just won't let up
And I know that You can give me rest
So I cry out with all that I have left

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Cause I'm worn

And my prayers are wearing thin
I'm worn even before the day begins
I'm worn I've lost my will to fight
I'm worn so heaven so come and flood my eyes

Let me see redemption win
Let me know the struggle ends
That you can mend a heart that's frail and torn

I want to know a song can rise
From the ashes of a broken life
And all that's dead inside can be reborn
Yes all that's dead inside will be reborn
Though I'm worn 
Yeah I'm worn

The struggle continues.

priorities

"Satan is the enemy. Not the other church down the road. Focus."

Found this quote somewhere in Twitter. And how true it is. I don't know about you, but I feel like there's a sense of competition between churches. And not in a good way.

It's pathetic how we react when we find out that one of our church-mates moved to another church. It's like once they leave, they become our enemies. Come on guys. How are we to love the unloved, when we can't even love each other as brothers and sisters in Christ?

Recently, someone said this.
"It doesn't matter what church they go to, as long as they're worshipping Jesus."

I agree. We need to change our mindset. It's not about popularity. It's about souls.
Most importantly, it's all about Jesus.

i may be weak, 
but Your Spirit's strong in me

my flesh may fail, 
but my God You never will.

The great Sir Alex Ferguson.
What would Manchester United be without him?
After 26 years at the helm, in what has been dubbed "the most successful managerial career Britain has ever known", he has finally chosen to retire.
Throughout his whole managerial career, he has managed to obtain 49 trophies.
Ain't that something.



I'm gonna miss this so much.


In other news, step up, David Moyes.


Massive task at hand. Be prepared.

post-elections


Tense times. Everybody's winding down quietly.

Exam continues tomorrow, but there will be something different. I feel a change in the atmosphere.
The social media has been buzzing since last night. Racism kicking in everywhere. Schoolmates, classmates and even close friends are hurling insults to one another (directly and indirectly). Everyone is taking sides. One claiming that the other is brainwashed by the mainstream media, another claiming that the other is blinded by the fake promises of the party they support. At this very moment, I wish I was home-schooled.

Anyway. There's only one way to go. Onwards.




Jesus Culture - Come Away

Come away with Me, come away with Me.
It's never too late, it's not too late.
It's not too late for you.

I have a plan for you. I have a plan for you
It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be great.
It's gonna be full of Me.

Open up your heart, and let Me in.



"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11

UBAH.


"To oppose corruption in government is the highest obligation of patriotism"- G. Edward Griffin

This Sunday is the 13th General Elections.
I'm feeling scared. Don't know why..
I feel the need to pray and pray and pray.

Something's going to happen. Though I'm not sure if something good, or bad.
Oh Jesus, please have your way in this country. Your kingdom come, Your will be done!

Please, please pray for Malaysia. We're a beautiful people in an amazing country.




There's now no more, condemnation
Over this land, no more
There's now no more, no more curses
Over our lives, over our family
Over our Church, today.

spinning


Mid-term exams just started today. Yet here I am, blogging. No wonder my results are so bad haha.

Last Friday, my school had a mini Edu Fair. Just what I needed.
So many colleges. So many people. So many brochures. So noisy zzz.

I need help to choose my career path. Very few things seem to pique my interest. Right now, the only thing I'm interested in is Sound Engineering and -maybe, just maybe- Business. I was so lost during the fair. So many colleges offering so many different courses. How to choose?!
My friend said this. "Let the world end only lah! No need to think about college."
So stupid. But then I actually hoped what he said would come true. Just for a moment.

What worries me most, is that so many people have already decided what they want to do in their life. They actually know, what step to take, how much money they need, when they want to get married (wth?).
And me? Talking about movies and football with friends. *Sigh*

A certain someone wants me to pursue Engineering. Be it, civil engineering or whatever, he wants me to go for that. Why? Can earn money.
Really? It's not about the money. I want to do something which I can enjoy doing.

I think the thing I fear the most is to get stuck into a routine. Wake up at 6 to beat the jam. Work 10 hours a day. Go home. Sleep. Wake up to the same thing.
It becomes a boring cycle. I don't want to do that.



Fear of the future. That's something new. Or is it?
Later gais.
