Touching Thoughts....

Haha, it was really funny last night, after watching The Face.... Had alot of fun teasing someone after the show... anyway, I was just thinking back alot after Grace sent me that note for Mdm Foo... thought back on the times we prepared for Teachers' Day Mass, Hymn singing competition and how we won hands down... here's my all time fav hymn....

Lord I come to you
Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the Grace, that I've found in you
And Lord I've come to know
The weaknesses I see in me
Will be stripped away,
By the Power of Your Love.

Hold me close and
Let your love surround me
Bring me near
Draw me to your side
And as I wait,
I'll rise up like the eagles
And I will soar with you
Your Spirit leads me on
In the Power of Your Love

Lord unveil my eyes
Let me see you face to face
The knowledge of your love
As you live in me.
Lord renew my mind
As your will unfolds in my life
In living everyday
In the Power of Your Love

I'm looking through my sec 4 journal.... close girls know that this book is like my life story in sec 4... and I saw racial harmony day's photo.... it was the 3 of us... but coz of some religious changes, it caused a big rift between 2 of us.... Am I supposed to still have a good feeling about it? Anyway, here's something Grace wrote in my journal, in teal blue ink...

Be good, goodness is pureness of heart.
Practise Random Acts of Kindness - keeps your heart whole
Reach.... Touch the stars - the sky's the limit
Play touch and go with your dreams, Baby, that's life.
You can't always be in touch with your dreams..
But don't let it get to you.
Carry on dreaming, carry on reaching.... carry on playing
Don't forget to pray - Jesus is our Saviour
Prayer keeps you sane....
The Lord makes you whole.

Its amazing, it feels like yesterday when I wrote in this journal, the confirmation photos of me, Nic, Bucky, Michael and Fr John looked like they were only taken yesterday.... Class photos of 1/4 '96, 2/4 '97, 3/5 '98 and 4/5'99, library prefectorial board and the choir....

Just now on my way home, I saw Ms Lie, yup the one who taught me LSS in sec 1 & 2 and Biology in sec 3 & 4. She didn't see me, so I walked up to her with my hands behind my back and in the same chirpy fashion that I used to, I said:" Good afternoon Ms Lie" and she was shocked! haha. Some things juz never change, do they? She looked pretty solemn, and she said... I'm going for a wake... Its Ms Lee Tze Tze's father's wake.... Oh, she was my art teacher in lower sec.... I told Ms Lie, pls send her my regards also on behalf of 4/5 '99....

Shall end of here with a quote that I wrote in my journal on Sunday, 3rd week of Lent....

"Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor; the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to them!"
"Happy are those who mourn; God will comfort them!"
"Happy are those who are humble; they will receive what God has promised!"
"Happy are those who whose greatest desire is to do what God requires; God will satisfy them fully!"
"Happy are those who are merciful to others; God will be merciful to them!"
"Happy are the pure in heart; they will see God!"
"Happy are those who work for peace; God will call them his children!"
"Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires; the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to them!"
Matt 5:3-10
