Mighty to save..

Since Sat when Nigel send me this song, it has been playing non-stop, repeating the same song over and over again. At home, on my way to work, back from work, during work. I guess the time I didnt play it was when I was sleeping and when I was bathing.

Mighty To Save
by Hillsong United


Everyone needs compassion
A love thats neverending
Let mercy fall on me

Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a savior
The hope of nations

*chorus*
Saviour he can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again

I give my life to follow
Everything i believe in
Now i surrender

*chorus* x2

Shine your light and let the whole world see
Were singing for the glory of the risen king JESUS x2

*chorus* x2

Shine you light and let the whole world see
Were singing for the glory of the risen king JESUS x6


Somehow, this song seems to have a good mood for praising God. Strong declaration of God's might and glory.

Probably the exams results were out for NTU peeps, and the people I prayed for did pretty well!! Praise the Lord!!! To be specific, I prayed really hard for 3 persons - Leslie, Catherine and Kaihui.

Leslie used to be just an acquaintance until early this yr. His FYP doesnt seems to have progress even though it is 2nd semester. And if I didnt rem wrongly, his projects encountered so much problems tt his project parts were only delievered in March. With PLC and Touchscreen programming for the hardware, it is not easy to handle in such a short period of time! Definitely not for an undergraduate. Probably I do PLC and Touchscreen programming at work (eeeks.. when necessary only), I felt his tension. With God's grace, he managed to finish. But his unhappy encounters with his prof wasn't encouraging. However, prayers work!!! A pleasantly surprising grade A for his FYP and good grades accompanying, a good honours degree rewarded!! Miracles happen, with faithful prayers and God's mighty hands. Praise to the Lord!!

Catherine, on the contrary, is a friend of mine for 4 yrs. (Psst, easy to count.. since you were yr 1.. haha..) This girl, hall-mate of mine, stayed in my previous room, neighbour of my bestest buddies wrote a testimony at her bloggie. It may be a real long one to read, but really worth reading. I can testify the things that happen, esp Yr 1 and Yr 2. The many heart breaking moments, the many disappointed moments, the diminishing hopes, were too much for the heart to take. I'm sorry that I was struggling to finish my final yr then and couldnt be of much help and comfort. On the contrary, Catherine (and Nigel) showered me so much help and comfort. (You (two) might not have remembered, but I was very touched and soothed when you bought supper for me and we ate in Nigel's room. And after tt, Nigel played the guitar and we just sang along. I'm really v.touched deep inside. And I felt so much better and less stressed up. Thanks!!!) But even if I could, the best saviour and comfort would be, none other than God. God's wonderful plan with Catherine's unceasing faithfulness brought about a change in situation. Especially the implementation of IO came at such a right time. Yr 3 and Y4 are definitely the better years, although the tremendous stress, God faithfully walk beside her. Congrats Catherine. Praise to the Lord!!

It is my first time praying for Kaihui. My JC friend and a non-believer. There's minimal I can help, but only to help her pray. Thank God!! She's graduating too!!!!

God is a God of miracles and He knows everything that we can even phanthom.

I guess God also orchestrated the suppers and the little worship session during our hostel times. Man, those were the days... =)
