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...
2.30am..once more i sleep late agn..i have been consecutively sleeping v late at nite or rather morning.. i ahve to say i am reali very very tired. no matter how long i sleep the next day (but never that long). i will still be v tired. bad.. i must get out of this cycle. frankly, i have felt v helpless especially ydae nite. when all things seemed to crush over u.. deadlines coming.. things overwhelming.. argh.. feel breathless.. and then! i realise wat i have been missing.. MY LORD!
i have been spending so little time with Him, miserably mayb 15min each time. coz every nite im too tired to meet with Him, without realising, if i spend half an hr with Him will be much refershing than i sleep for one more hour. is the truth, though it may sound strange. i have experienced that many times. btu somehow, when one is tired, the mind will always think in its natural way..i am tired, nd to wake up early tmr, better sleep. that is the ungenerated mind. teh natural mind... anyway, i suddenly feel so lost without Him, and i REALISE in my innermost that He is all i want, all i desire! i cant do anything without Him! the days when i rely on my own strenght... is reali a waste of my strength coz they avail to nothing. im going to exchange all my burdens with Him. and with Him, all my worries and responsibilties seemed to be so much lighter.. coz i noe it is not me who is in charge but Him. i am jus an unprofitable servant who waits at the Master's order. oh Lord, help me to depend so much on u. You are all i need!
