"I'm forgiven because You were forsaken. I'm accepted You were condemned. I'm alive and well Your Spirit lives within me. Because You died and Rose again.

So this is Valentine's ? Flowers, hearts and red balloons? Feelings, hugs and kisses? For someone who is single..it is about remembering the true friends around me, who share a part of my life, ups and downs. Most importantly it is also remembering the Love that Jesus gave. Jesus gave us His Love by dying on the cross to be His beloved, this Love is incomparable.
That is what Valentine's Day mean to me. Cause its just not Valentine's without Christ in it.
To all my Friends..Happy Emo-day..opps I meant Valentine's Day.
What does Valentine's day means to you?

so this is weeping,
the salted streams I taste.
this saddening picture,
painted and left to dry.
so hide the cracks under the coloured smiles.
close my eyes and the problem isn't really there.
this my resolution
cry out..
so this is bleeding,
my conscience has left me cold.
observing concrete,
here's to long goodbyes,
and all the songs they bring.

So here's to hope.


Teach me to not hold on...Teach me to obey You Lord.


Light these idle sticks of my life and may i burn up for Thee. Consecrate my life, my God, for it is Thine. I seek not a long life but a full one like Yours, Lord Jesus.

My heart sank
When I heard those words again.
An empty smile
I cried sliently
I have nothing to offer
Only a broken heart
I can't compare
Perhaps Jealousy overwhelmed
I should just Kill the thoughts about you
They Lie! They Don't Exist!
How useless of me
To be in tears
Just becos you were better
Its stupid I know
Because you meant so much to me
I must remember
The band of brothers
We ought to be.
I am not too far
You will find me
If you see me inside.

I took MC today from work today, jus to go to the zoo with Jon, shaun and edle for some sketchings. Its been a while since i have such a quiet morning, chilling out with frens and animals.Its such a joy!

Till then good nite.

Ephesians 6 : 10-18
The Armor of God

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, F19 against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints--
19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel.

Spartans! were what I was reminded of when i was reading this chapter. Some historical background i've learnt.
These warriors of the classical world, spend their lives defending their country (Just like NS regulars). These warriors have been training since 7 years old, they spent their younger days training to be the elites and they can only get married when they are 30 years old.
All these made them so different from the Romans and the other soldiers.

The armor of the spartan consists a helmet (with hairs somewhat like a mohawk that is extended from the right to the left side of the helm) , breastplate made of thick leather (which is lighter) and greaves ( for covering the feet and protecting the shin of the legs
).

Spartan's weapons are tower shields, javelin for close combat and short sword at the side.

In relation to the Christian Life , we are like Spartans..we are different compared to others, in a sense that we have different beliefs and we are like the elites. We are also constantly on the battleground fighting against our enemies. Just like the spartans, we must always stick together during battles, looking out for each other and moving together jus like how the ancient warriors move in formations.
Together we can win this battle.

Have u put on your armor?
