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...
is almost 2.30am, im still online... reali nd to sleep early.. actuali kinda tired.. hmm.. anyway, i failed miserably of wat i said i shld not do miserably.. abstain! >.< anyway i noe that if im not in the Vine, i cannot grow... and of coz, all these just reveals the condition of my heart. not something new, but that God chose to reveal those things that are not purified to me agn!
i nd to be ready! cell mulitplying. i noe i will hv a greater part to play in. nd to step out in faith and out of my comfort zone, although not in my own strength coz i realised whenever in my own strength, i will always be just so so tired at the end of it!
God helped me! i want to die, die to myself. im always so full of pride, so full of myself. so care abt my reputation, of wat others will think of me! God, let me remember that i no longer belong to myself, but You when u bought me with a price! it is no longer i that lived, but Christ who lives in me!let me like the apostle paul who count all things as dung! his reputation, his education, even his heritage. everything. Lord, take them! help me to lay them down at Your feet!
another thing that has been annoying me.. it is this person whom i reali want to treat with a tok-to-my-hand attitude. i noe im mean, but i juz something cldnt stand this person. ok, i dun wanna name this person here. not a very nice thing to do. and for ur info, this person is actualli a not bad person, just that it happens that, he tries too much (ok, he is a "he"). tries too much to think he noes me alot, he noes me very well, tries too much to get near me. and of coz, tries to hv the same interest as me. but im reali not interested. and i dunno how well i can hint aredi, which i think is pretty obvious... either he pretends not to noe, or well.. arghh, dun wanna tok abt it anymore. i think im mean. well, u wun noe wat im trying to say... or do u?
im turning in. going to do my Quiet Time. i need it badly!
