so tomorrows the last exam. so far my grades have been pretty good...except for...chinese. dang it i really have to actually study next term.

canoeings been pretty good so far. although it may just be cus im just starting on the T. but the tuesday land trainings i can take.

See Teck Hock expects much out of me...so i really gotta work hard at this. i have to be at least experienced within a year. i gotta push for it. for a deserving place in the canoeing team.

i have to start thinking for real. do i drop choir now im in this?

i saw this passage last night during devotions. and it really did strike a chord so i thought id just share it.

While our Bible study group gathered one night at the prison, I noticed a new person, a young man, who came into the circle and sat down. One of the men whispered to me that this was the young man's first day in prison, that he has no family here in the United States, and that he spoke little English.
It became apparent during the study that although our new friend, Nathaniel, could understand some of what we were saying, language was a real barrier. I went over to him during break as he sat slumped in his chair. I felt very limited because I did not speak his language at all. But I said to him, "Nathaniel, do you know how much Jesus loves you?" Tears began to fall as he shook his said and said, "Nobody loves Nathaniel."
The group gathered quietly around him and simply embraced him. Nathaniel said, "I want this Jesus." I will never forget the way Charles, another inmate, held Nathaniel as he cried. With the help of this loving group, Nathaniel accepted Christ. The men in the group pulled him to his feet and said "We are your family now!" We all rejoiced with Nathaniel. Barriers fell as we witnessed God's transforming love.

"We love because [God] first loved us" - 1 John 4:19

All for love, a Father gave
For only love could make a way
All for love, the heavens cried
For love was crucified

Let me sing all for love
I will join the angel song
Ever holy is the Lord
King of glory, King of all

Oh, how many times have I broken Your heart
Still You forgive if only I ask
And how many times have You heard me pray
Draw near to me

Everything I need is You
My beginning, my forever
Everything I need is You

All for love, a Savior prayed
Abba Father, have Your way
Though they know not what they do
Let the cross draw man to You
To You

Everything I need is You
My beginning, my forever
Everything I need is You

All for Love
Hillsong
Look to You
