Steven Curtis Chapman - Yours From the album This Moment
I walk the streets of London And notice in the faces passing by Something that makes me stop and listen My heart grows heavy with the cry
Where is the hope for London? You whisper and my heart begins to soar As I'm reminded That every street in London in Yours Oh, yes it is
I walk the dirt roads of Uganda I see the scars that war has left behind Hope like the sun is fading They're waiting for a cure no one can find
And I hear children's voices singing Of a God who heals and rescues and restores And I'm reminded That every child in Africa is Yours
Chorus: And its all Yours, God, Yours, God Everything is Yours From the stars in the sky To the depths of the ocean floor And its all Yours, God, Yours, God Everything is Yours You're the Maker and Keeper, Father and Ruler of everything It's all Yours
And I walk the sidewalks of Nashville Like Singapore, Manila and Shanghai I rush by the beggar's hand and the wealthy man And everywhere I look I realize
That just like the streets of London For every man and woman, boy and girl All of creation This is our Father's world
Chorus:
(4x) It's all Yours, God
The glory is Yours, God All the honor is Yours, God The power is Yours, God The glory is Yours, God
You're the King of Kings And Lord of Lords
I've walked the valley of death's shadow So deep and dark that I could barely breathe I've had to let go of more than I could bear And questioned everything that I believe But still even here in this great darkness A comfort and hope come breaking through As I can say in life or death God we belong to you
Was juz looking thru some of my archives and this song really struck me in this season. that at the end of the day, everything belongs to Him, so no matter what is the journey that we're gonna take, juz surrender and let God take control, cos we belong to Him..
This has been one of the most hectic weeks thus far.. Monday in the office and rushed off cos went to meet some JC frens.. then it was the most interesting Monday thus far cos of a hacker incident involving JY.. This excitement carried on cos I was worried that my system in office would be hacked into.. So Tues, went for my course and rushed back to office after that.. It din help that i was worrying if my strange colleague would sit at my place simply cos she's uncomfortable in her current place. But i think aft running an anti spyware prog that D sent, i was assured that the fella din hack into my system.. phew.......
Wed went for day 2 of the course and aft that went to meet ex coursemates from Grad Dip class at Central.. oh and before that i went to this book store that is so quaint and full of undiscovered gems! And i spent $$ there lah.. duh.. retail therapy rocks!!! Anyway, met frens and chatted till 10 plus. caught up with each other abt work mainly.. was sharing with them of my thoughts on leaving..
Thurs was day 4 of the course, and wanted to met Gin for lunch but he wasn't free.. so i juz nuahed at TCC after lunch and enjoying the hazlenut latte.. aft that had to rush back to office to work late.. but thankfully, the trainer released us earlier as she had another major appointment.. talked to one volunteer abt where i am and contemplating leaving.. and some colleague(s) overheard.. dunno if it's a good or a bad thing to have so many ppl know.. haha..
Last day of the course.. and got to do a lot of reflection of where i am at this point.. And some things that struck me was that i'm approaching a crossroad.. and i know i have to make a decision even though there's uncertainty.. and when that's resolved, i will definitely walk down that road... relationships can be supportive and protective.. yet there are also the less supportive ones.. i'm comfortable with the uncertainty at this point, cos i'm not yet at the cross road. happines, hope, health and freedom FAITH companioning, journeying, making sense, co creating a meaning...
aft the course, i felt a sense of relief that it's over... but i'm excited abt what it can do at work, or maybe when facilitating a group.. but maybe is cos i dun have to go down that journey that will lead me nearer the cross road? Carrying my sand and some trays, i headed to bras basah to buy some modeling clay.. and as usual, therapy means u end up buying more than u intended to. so i got a book to read, and a game set called UNGAME.. anyway, had dinner on my own cos couldn't find a dinner kaki.. anyway, with all my barang i felt so auntified.. lol.
Cell was quite interesting, cos had some conversations with some of the ppl from a different cell and got to know them better.. and even managed to name everybody at the start of cell!! Then the heavier topic came during word time when FS shared abt some things that the leadership is concerned about over the trends in the youth.. which i think i may have to share with the gals.. in view of likely changes in the coming months..
The only thing that is constant is: CHANGE.

it's all abt the attitude isn't it? if u have the best skills but ur attitude sucks, it will show.. if u are unwilling, then i rather u dun do.. cos it will show.. and it will affect the ppl around..
the heart of the matter.. is the matter of the heart..
Be careful little eyes what you see It's the second glance that ties your hands As darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go For it's the little feet behind you That are sure to follow
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade It's a slow fade
Be careful little ears what you hear When flattering leads to compromises The end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say For empty words and promises Leave broken hearts astray
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day
The journey from your mind to your hands Is shorter than you're thinking Be careful if you think you stand You just might be sinking
It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray
And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day Daddies never crumble in a day Families never crumble in a day
Oh, be careful little eyes what you see Oh, be careful little eyes what you see For the Father up above is looking down in love Oh, be careful little eyes what you see
