voice of truth

sometimes i feel like just giving up and running away.
to detach myself from this entangled mess and hopelessly desolate decay
to taste the sweetness of fresh water in drought, or to experience freedom in claustrophobia
its hard to get away. too hard. i thought i could cut myself loose. but its not possible.
not just because my hands and legs are bounded by this thick rope of responsibility.
but because my heart has been tied down by the history, by family, and by love

through grace and mercy i realized i was not alone. we were not alone.
you know why? because He is holding all these up. it is His ministry after all.
what can tear us down when God is amongst us, supporting each and everyone of us.
through love we perservere in proclaiming His glory and fulfilling our purpose in church.
in faith, we will continue. till we fill our cups with renewed commitments and passion to serve.

"so i will run to the alter
and catch the fire
to stand in the gap between the living and the dead"

on a much lighter note, the girls came over for badminton+movie (cinderella story for the 7th time!) today again ((:
which means more photowhoring in the ktv room.
and then our chair modeling session. photos up later when im not feeling lazy ((:

yes, i think we lost weight. not from the badminton itself. but frm the laughing haha.
i swear i could feel my abs right after badminton.
but that shortlived discovery was soon diminished after the canadian pizza order came in.
i guess thats what you call "taking one step forward and two steps back"
and the fact that i'm eating oreo cookies right now that has somethingsomething (read: an adjective for fats that cannot be burnt off) fats according to cherie doesnt help too.
