ok, the year's coming to an end.

at lifegroup yesterday we shared about what we were thankful to God for, something like thanksgiving and doing a "checkpoint" for our lives in the year 2006. It's quite a journey this year for most of us. but most importantly, we've all learned and grown from what had happened.

anyway, Christmas is coming. i think i really like Christmas. cause its a nice festival. but i always associate it with snow so i think i have this make belief in my mind that Christmas is going to be cold and niceee, every year.

yay


cheers,
dalton

fade into you.

the shadows of mine
cast over the horizons

bringing nothing but plight
a selfish tinge of empathy

what more to say, what more to say
flying higher into the sphere with my cranked up jet

maybe its what you didn't say, not what you did.

hi, my name is dalton. it's 11.48 pm and its drizzling outside.

hello dearest friends,

if i've let any of you guys down or given you the thought that i don't care or judge you, i'm sorry.. it really isn't who i am to do so. if you know me well enough it doesn't really matter about what you've done before.

i'm not in the position at all to judge anyone. i just want to be a good friend. someone who you all can turn to and share life with..

i just want to let you guys know i've never thought about you guys that way. i love you all and i just want to see us do well in life. sorry.

love,

dalton

heh.. i have a new achievement. and i've set a pretty high standard.. to you know who.

anyways.. i guess God's been really patient and generous with me.. the things i've prayed about and the things i've prayed for. they are always answered.

hmm so yeah its a week's break from sch for me now. trying to make the best out of what i need to do too..

and yes! Christmas is coming... ha ha ha

today was worship conference day. it was a blast.. all those who were there would surely say so too. personally i felt i've learnt alot from today itself. and just the awe of knowing Jesus our God was there throughout.. delighting in us.

like we've set new standards now. each day.. each service.. the conference is past now. and it really doesnt matter anymore. God's done what he wants to do and there's more to come.. so i encourage you guys! let this not be just a one time movitation but let God be your motivation. this way it never runs out.. cause there's an eternity waiting for you.. just to share one of my favourite verse:

John 14

Jesus Comforts His Disciples

1"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God^[a]; trust also in me. 2In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4You know the way to the place where I am going."

11Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. 12I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. 14You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.

i'm not that bad right ?

am i ?

If i lay here, if i just lay here.
Would you lie with me and just forget the world ?

I don't know where,
Confused about how as well.

::
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.

We'll do it all, everything
In Your ways.


thanks.. i really appreciate it.

its so fast huh... a week's past again.

learnt more things, felt more inspired, got more relaxed, liked electrico more and more, loved God more and more. yeah its this increasing thing in life. like God doesnt cut you short. He's always adding, teaching, pouring out his teachings, blessings and love.. to me ya la. its a serene feeling.

i've been wondering that here in singapore do we all have the opportunity to pursue the dreams we want. it varies you know.. some dreams just dont have as much of a chance than the others to be lived..

its a huge risk i'd say. people always tell me that music in singapore.... cant make it big! cant this and cant that. haha.. yet everyday im inspired by the people who are living it in singapore. they're just like us. a simple person walking around. many of a times its going to need 3 other person who are as passionate and willing as you are. to say we'd all put our heart into something we all love and show it to the world. it's a very.. fufilling feeling i guess.

so yeah.. i'll definitely do it if i have just that one chance to make it! to pursue music at a level that i've never imagined before. it might not work out.. so its a risk to take.

tonight. everyone's dreaming, everyone's dreaming..

Ephesians 4

Unity in the Body of Christ (Church)

1As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. 2Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. 3Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

see the keywords: COMPLETELY - no compromising, BEARING in LOVE - tolerate. if you cant. work with it! Love is a bunch of things! read corinthians, EVERY EFFORT - yup you have to do something. dont wait for the others to do it, PEACE - you know what these means.

Yup, you've heard God's Heart. =) the Bible defines everything we do. this is an important value and i think we all need to know the word of God inside out..

hmm.. ive given thought and i dont mean ive got everything sorted out. but i think it could be a no. of things that lead to the problems faced by the people in church. - the sound doctrines, the solid rock foundation and being inclusive. we always hang out with each other. meaning excess energy, bla bla goes to our own friends. it results in us picking on each other about the slightest of things. all these energy were meant to go outwards.. not inwards i guess.

just my thoughts.. =)
what do you think ?

hmm a week's past in church, things were done up and tore down. old things have past and all things are becoming new! you know like God said... Behold!

many changes have taken place in my life these couple weeks. there were heart to heart talks. there were questionings.. there was doubt. Which clearly the bible says to put down. "Why do you doubt? Oh you of little faith" - Jesus

hmm sometimes you find that the hardest person to bring back to God is the person you're close to.. ive been thinking about standards. God has set some standards for us.. God has set missions for us. from the day we were imaged.. we had our will carved.. in this timeline:
|beginning-----------------------------------------------------------------end|, choices are made and ya.. just a whole of of things are written on it. whats yours been ?
you know Moses didnt come down from the mountain with 2 tablets of suggestions. It was 2 tablets of COMMANDMENTS.

now there are relationships.. its hard and it doesnt come easy for me... sometimes its not that i dont want to.. bt its just that i really dont know how to say it. or show it.. im afraid i might overdo it. im afraid i might send people walking the other direction..

ok here's my favourite song from the latest hillsongs album : Mighty To Save

why i like it ? listen and find out. haha..

so if you're not too busy, come along and sit with me for awhile.

haha.. well 3 exams are over and i have 2 more to go. which was quite fast.. like the days just went wheezing past. hmm yeah so ive finally gotten my new guitar. which sounds really fantastic.. really like it alot. so i guess im going to play alot haha..

been trying to write songs for church. so if any of you are willing to.. come to me! we'll sit down and get it done =) and yeah.. nowadays i have to control my temper. been kind of short-tempered lately.. sorry if i've given you a hard day or something yeah. chill..

so yup. leave a comment! cause its a lonely blog..

cheers,
dalton

had my first paper today. was quite ok..

it feels like something's just missing. hmm

oh simple things, where have you gone ?
im getting old and i need something to rely on.
so tell me when you're gonna let me in,
im getting tired and i need somewhere to begin.

so if you have a minute why dont we go,
talk about somewhere only we know.
this could be the end of everything,
so why dont we go,
so why dont we go ?

somewhere only we know.

alright was just thinking about some things.

you know how sometimes you dream of being big, and when you want to get something so much you begin to neglect your friends, your families and even yourself. you forgot how it feels to have a bunch of bigger-than-life brothers and sistes around you. whom from them you give and take.. people who'd stick by you.. see you through and share the sadness and joy. hah.. wonderful ?

well i guess not all people have a group of such people. some yearn for them and couldnt have them. some people do and yet take them for granted. life's a balance huh.. when youve killed yourself for recognition, killed yourself to never ever stop.. and end up turning into something you're not...

for all the things ive done wrong. im sorry. and to my buddies.. come on we know life's changing. new seasons come and we've got to learn hw to adapt and settle down on it. bt through it all i can say we are still great friends. so dont feel nobody's letting you in on anything.. God always has His ways of doing things.

like how i've been left high.. left dry.. its those little things that matters. people are God's most wonderful creations. so isnt it only right that people are too the most important thing in life. well to me yeah.

what ive learnt ? love God, love people.

heh! jubbyjub's back on business. so if you havent been to jubbyjub's old blog.. its stagnant most of the time, not entertaining and dull. bt! my tagboard's full of crap. ok so yeah.. see you guys arnd =)
