I don't mind if you've got something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world
I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love? Did I point to You enough
To make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace who
blessed your name unapologetically
And leave that kind of legacy
I don't have to look too far or too long awhile
To make a lengthly list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust, thieves and such will soon enough destroy
Not well traveled, not well read, not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead, "Well Done" good and faithful one...
yep. after i kept rambling on and on about my day yesterday, i wanna tok abt the mtg too.. heehee.. ydae's mth at church was Prayer for the Nations. our church is called to be the House of Prayer for All Nations. we split into respective groups to pray for different nations. they were the Phillippines, Africa, China, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Israel, all of which our church have some work in. after that, we split to 2 or 3 praying for our very homeland, Singapore.
i din noe where i shld go... in the end i went for Africa...
the prayer mtg was good, very good, many people prayed, spontaeneously... and we prayed for our Uganda Pastor who just rose from the dead! is teh truth, our pastor shared with us abt 2 weeks ago. Pst Aloysius was in hospital and was very sick. he vomitted blood and his heart beat just stopped! he was pronounced dead, but after a few days or hours, whichever it was, i forgot... on the way to the mortuary, they heard a gasp of breath under the covers. it was Pastor Aloysius! he came back alive! this is really a testimony. he gave a testimony on what he saw while he was dead... he was conscious and he saw mountains and streams, felt as light as a feather that he could leaped over them!
so life after death is a truth... after u died for 3sec, u will realised u are still alive and is conscious of ur surroundings. is definitely not just a i-no-longer-existed-after-i-die thing. u will be consious. but the thing is, where will u be?
