I Shall Not Pass Again This Way

The bread that bringeth strength I want to give;
The water pure that bids the thirsty live;
I want to help the fainting day by day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give the oil of joy for tears,
The faith to conquer crowding doubts and fears;
Beauty for ashes may I give always;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give good measure running o’er
And into angry hearts I want to pour
The answer soft that turneth wrath away;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give to others hope and faith;
I want to do all that the Master saith;
To meet the needs of others every day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

prelims for the secfours are here! really learning very much how to pray for others and learn to exhort and encourage one other. i still remember so clearly the prelims last year and how my nerves were just insanely WRECKED from worrying and studying and the kind of encouragement and love i received from those around me was like suffocating underwater and finally coming up for the first breath of air and its something that i really thanked God for then, and still thank Him for now. jc really hasnt been easy, things just seem to be getting worse nowadays, what with promos three weeks away and how im just so prepared to just die for promos but NO i refuse to give up and no i will not no matter how much i feel like it.

i really hope everyone does well! and i seriously get scared sometimes cos i still remember the nauseating feeling i used to get before each paper, but then i remember how far God brought me from straight f's to six points and assuredly i say to you THERE IS NO GREATER MIRACLE. and if God brought me this far, He can bring anyone and carry anyone, no matter how great the distance. and everytime i consider this im always, always reminded of the example of paul. i guess its his really huge jump from being a persecutor of Chrisitnas to a strong and faithful preacher of God's word and the work God did in his life just never ceases to amaze me.

2 corinthians 12:9-10 "and He said to me, 'my grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.' therefore most gladly i will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. therefore i take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake, for when i am weak, then i am strong."

anw just one note to leave [rie]: -bighug- dar, He brought us through the o's, He brought us through the first few adjustment months of ac, He gave us amazing results for o's, He watched over us, strengthened us, guided us, gave us peace, gave us strength, gave us joy, gave us bethany and gave us each other to encourage, exhort and uphold. simply rest in His love and abide, His faithfulness is forever (: remember 'living for Jesus through earth's little while, my dearest treasure- the light of His smile. seeking the lost ones He died to redeem, bringing the weary to find rest in Him. remember, life's a rollercoaster, He's with us both in the rollercoaster cart and in the control box -wink:D

been thinking and praying about youth conference, and this is it. this is one part of my being in church that im not gonna compromise for anything. not for anything and nothing within that week is gonna hold more importance than being there for that camp. this is my decision to remain faithful, i will try, no matter what the cost is.

down any road, at any cost- wherever You lead, i will follow. because i know, You've called us to take up Your cross, down any road, at any cost (:
