breaking away

Just another person, who's all grown up.
And Out, of affections for me.
The cares and concerns just don't seem the same anymore.
The foundation of trust built upon so many years is breaking away under my feet.
Or maybe its just me, staying stagnant while you're growing; stronger and firmer.
Bon voyage, don't slow down cos' of me-
you have better things to do, many things to learn and dreams to fulfil.
i don't think i can depend on a rapidly moving yacht,
like how you can't depend on a raft;
Don't get me wrong, i still care and worry about you.
love ya.

sis n me

don't pout or you'll look tout, aint it?

wink wink

my eyes are huge!

i think you've got your "I HAVE WHITE TEETH!" point across, sarah

starbuckeroo

Crazy moments that make us sisters!
You'll be stuck with me for the rest of your life
So you had better treat me well (:
Hee.

Oy vey.

The road goes narrower, harder

But my hope runs deeper, richer

"You O lord keep my lamp burning

My God turns my darkness into light."
Psalm 18:28

I've still got so much to learn

To be chiseled and chafed

A slow and wanting process

I want to emerge as pure silver.

A perfect world

With all that has been going on in the world today,
It's hard to picture a perfect world, or much less, perfect peace.

We unknowingly strive on one "side" thing that may be of value to us:

Well, God is definitely first priority.... Er... and security?

But can we take away one component, and still live with that?

If I had God and all the security, love, attention and approval I could possibly have,

I would be in a perfect world.

If only it was that straightforward, isn't it?

I want to come to a point,

A perfect point,

Where I can freely say,

"My perfect peace came only from trusting and resting

In the only One who truly matters."

That'll be my prayer.

"Peace I leave with you,
My peace i give unto you.

I do not give to you as the world gives.

Do not let your hearts be troubled,

Do not be afraid."

John 14:27

My Father's song

"I am also the Father who comforts you in all your troubles."
2 Corinthians 1.3-4

I have heard so many songs

Listened to a thousand tongues

But there is one

That sounds above them all

The Father's song

The Father's love

You sung it over me

And for, Eternity

It's written on my heart

Heaven's perfect melody

The Creator's symphony

You are singing over me

The Father's song

Heaven's perfect mystery

The King of love has sent for me

And now You're singing over me

The Father's song

It's in the valley that I grow

"I pray that when You knock away things from beneath her feet,

She'll know that it is in order that she might rest more securely in You.

In Your most precious and holy name, amen."

- a princess of God

I trust the Lord that this will be my last relapse.

~In desperate need of mercy, at the end of my own strength~

I fall upon the kindness of Your grace

Lord, I know that You are good,

You came to rescue me

So please, hear my humble plea

Save me, Lord, save me

I have nowhere else to go

Lord, I trust in You alone

To save me, my Savior

~I call on Your Name, Jesus save me.~

It's so amazing, that through this trudging of the valley,

I learned so much about God's heart for me.

In the midst of this valley I believe I'm strengthened in the most indescribable ways,

I cannot say "completely"

But the time spent in solitude, in His word

Made 'I surrender all' easier

Which made me realize,

How in 'special' moments you can say "I surrender all", and mean it genuinely,

Yet, truly, the weight of the 3 words!

And then I cried to the Lord.

I was sick of my persistent old thinking

And I wanted God to deliver me,

Save me.

But of course. I haven't gone to the source of His word, to Him.

"But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him."

Jeremiah 17:7

Prayers from my family, encouragement from my sister.

"He would want you to do your best in whatever opened door you're in now."

It used to be

"Maybe I'm not as strong as I thought."

I could never write about today, about God, if I was any stronger

Only till I came to the end of my strength

That I see the encouragement, words, prayers and His word

Not just as they are

But words of reassurance

Spoken gently, right at me, from my heavenly Father.

Sarah, I'll be here to stay.

His back to follow

Exodus 33:23

"Then I will remove my hand and you will see My back;"

I'll follow the Lord.

yonder breaks...

A new and glorious morn.

Happy new year 09'!

Time for new year resolutions

My resolution? A hard yet simple "my all for His highest."

The pictures above were taken during my family chalet 08' :)

28 December - 30 December 08'.

It may come and go

Christmas may come and go

And arrive again

But each year is special

Because the feelings and memories-

They don't leave, they linger

Taking up places in the heart, my heart

One thing's for certain though,

It'll never be too full for Jesus

Love Jesus,

Love Christmas.
