you are near
I love this song from the first time i heard it back when i was still in kuching. I remember i had a blank cd lying around and asked my friend to burn it to cd for me and i borrowed a cd player from michael. I hadn't bought Ben yet. Everytime i hear this song i am reminded of my old room in pleasant courts where i dealt with being alone, missing home and family and how i managed to pull through.
These few days i've been a bit under the weather. Its a good thing it started with my last class for the week and i'm getting better. Been spending more of my time at home, not doing anything in particular, trying to rest and being careful about what i eat. Last time i felt this way was when i had chocolate mint cake a few months ago. In these few days i can say i have felt peace. There's not the usual chaos that greets every week. Sure i have a tutorial to prepare for this monday, i have to get people to volunteer to be security tuesday and wednesday, there's the meeting this saturday and then the student council proposal thingy and so on but i feel peace.
Church was good :) I've got to say my best part of sunday service is the singing and then the message, everything else is good but not as good. I guess its true, we really need to be reminded more than we need to be instructed and I was reminded of my responsibility to myself to know God in a personal way. I've been slacking for some reason but God has been faithful.
It feels good doing the right thing, going against the norm. It may not be popular but in the end there's the peace that you have done what is right.
