We Hide in the Shadow of Your Wings

Lord, we hide in the shadow of Your wings
We hide in Your love
We hide in Your presence
You bring release and relief
To our every need
Unanswered question
Nagging pain
Indescribable anguish
We hide in the shadow of the almighty
Lord, let Your life and light
Flood our hearts
As we call on Your great name

The Whole of Singapore Mourns

Yesterday, my mum and I were at the tribute centre at Tanjong Katong Primary School. We were overwhelmed by the out pour of love and support for the school. The loss of the lives of the teachers and children saddened our hearts. Mr Ho, the father of Rachel Ho, one of the students who died when interviewed by Mediacorp said that he sensed the whole country was behind them.  Mr Ho, the father of Rachel Ho, one of the students who died when interviewed by Mediacorp said that he sensed the whole country was behind them. Having seen the magnitude of the warmth and love of the people, one can only say that indeed the whole of Singapore mourns for the loss of these precious lives. May their families and friends find strength and hope to live for another day.

Draw us Deeper into Your Presence

Draw us deeper into Your presence
Draw us deeper into Your love
Draw us deeper into Your grace
Do a deep and a lasting work in us
Spirit of the living God
Fall afresh on us
Come in Your power
Come in Your might
Lord!  We call on You
We come humbly before Your throne
Everything we have is Yours
We lay our lives on the altar this day

Touched by a Little Child

Last week from 2 - 4 June, I was conducting an Oratorical Skills workshop in a primary school in Punggol. There were three full days of training from 9.00am-4.30pm. I was training a rambunctious and enthusiastic primary three students.  They were the Prefects in school. These kids were real good kids.  I had so much fun in my training sessions with them.

On the last day, a child passed me a package.  I thanked her for her gift.  Later when I reached home, I read the "home made card" and gifts.  She has put in effort to make paper stars and put them in a lovely net.  

I started training in mid 2006.  On many occasions, God has touched me through the actions and words of the students I met.
