Season of Love

It’s again, the season of love…
A gift from our Father above…
A time to celebrate Jesus’ miracle birth…
A joyful day, for all the earth…

It’s again, the season of love…
A time to straighten those who curved…
To offer water to those who thirsts…
To bring redemption from sin and death’s cruel curse…

It’s again, the season of love…
Made available by the Master who serve…
He wasn't spared; His blood drenched the earth…
Hung on the tree, life slipping through His pain stricken nerves…

It’s again, the season of love…
He is sinless, ranks high above…
But He humbled Himself to this lowly sinful turf…
He was made sinful, bearing our Curse…

It’s again, the season of love…
Let’s not forget through Him all is made of its worth…
Through His blood He broke the Curse…
Through His death to the Church He gave its birth…

It’s again, the season of love…
He first loves us thus we love…
So now let’s hold hands together, and spread His love…
For we must never forget; God is Love!!

It’s again, THE SEASON OF LOVE!!

Tagging Along...


I know this is stupid, don't tell me but it is. I don't know why I do it but there it is. It's so small that I have to keep magnifying the picture, and I can't even tell if it's a cat with 5 legs and no tail or a cat with no legs and 5 tails. DARN I forgot about the eyes also (a curse??) and the whiskers is totally out of place. I think the first one on the right is floating. Well, not bad for my first tag. Thanks to my drawing skills, I came across a new species of cat. Maybe I should give it a name. *Neesemese Cat* How does it sound??

P.S. By far this is the hardest struggle I have in my "electronical" life; drawing a cat on my laptop. I wonder what's more yet to come?

My Father, Friend and King...

I came across this little poem that i suspect to be a song lyric, and guess what, I was right. It's the song "Ocean Soul" by Nightwish from their album Century Child.

One more night

To bear this nightmare

What more do I have to say

Crying for me was never worth a tear

My lonely soul is only filled with fear

Long hours of loneliness

Between me and the sea

Losing emotion

Finding devotion

Should I dress in white and search the sea

As I always wished to be - one with the waves

Ocean Soul

Walking the tideline

I hear your nameIs angels whispering

Something so beautiful it hurts

Long hours of loneliness

Between me and the seaI only wished to become something beautiful

Through my music, through my silent devotion

I was kinda disappointed, after checking through their background. They held on to certain ideas in their songs that I can't readily accept. Plus their genre is "metal", not quite my taste. I was interested that song because of their poetical elements in the song "Ocean Soul". Too bad it greatly reflects the human disappointment of ever exisiting loneliness. It is such a sad song, yet true. But this is because the world has yet to experience God's love, the Love that Jesus bears to us.

The feel just came and i wrote a poem to counter the song "Ocean Soul". :P

Day by day…
By my side you would always stay…
What could I ask for,
What else could I pray?

Now I know in every tear I shed…
In every expectation unmet…
In my tears your shoulder is the one that’s drenched wet…
It doesn’t matter for what reason I was sad…
Or what I did was something bad…
Your love shines through it;
It’s your strength that I tap…

Walking alongside down the beach…
You are ever within reach…
Sometimes we may be whispering…
But I know,
Your grace is for me to sing…
If my life is a drawing,
Your love would be its paint and ink…
Through my music and praises my lips sing…
My life for you,
My Friend, Father and King…


It really makes all the difference. Experiencing God's love doesn't free us from pain and death. Rather we can embrace them with the confident that God is in control, even over them. Jesus' death on the cross has also made those who believe die along with it; Jesus' resurection from death has also made those who believe arise again, died to our sin, born into the glory of Christ.

Anyway...It's the Season of Love!!

Sometimes Cupid Can Also Bite!!

It was just a stare…
Crept in a feeling so rare…
Falling back into infatuation’s cruel lair…
This time around how well would I fare??
To God I pray a silent plea…
Could she be the one for me??
So I tread on slowly…
Around her I tried to be…
But that wasn’t at all easy…
I was shy I guess…
And almost made it a total mess…
It dented my confidence…
I am nowhere near to be a Jason!!
The Golden Fleece is out of reach…
Its defenses are too strong to breach…
By sympathy I survive the feat…
But not without the casualty of my fleets…
It was a worthless effort,
Or even a foolish run…
For it was already won by one…
My efforts are again in vain…
And I reared silently in pain…
My turn is still yet to come…
For now it is best to remain calm…
Till another Fleece is in sight…
And fight my way through to reach its side…
Oh hell, now i know…
Sometimes Cupid can also bite!!

A Reflection of the Recent Yesterdays...

Standing in midst of multitude…
Thus starts a new prelude…
With some secret expectations...
I took the first step into this sticky situation…
Havoc struck well before I could find my footing…
So many qualities in me are found wanting…
A group was there in need for me to lead…
Silently inside to God I pleaded…
Please get me out of this shit!!

The group was a big real mess…
We had perverts so as muich as pests…
Nothing ever seems correct…
No solid grounds for me to tread…
Life seems to be at the gloomiest…
A little more in tears, I would burst…

But then things turn for the better…
As we get to know one other…
Things start to move and ideas flow…
We are becoming somewhat a big bang blow…
Though it turned out to be an all time low…
I think we had fun; and together had some row…
We learned to accept the good and bad…
As well as the normal and the mad…
I couldn’t be more proud and happy for them…
They gave it all and with love stood firm…
But then time flew swiftly among our midst…
Leaving the good memories behind and we are to take our leave…
So in sadness and with a little grief…
Tears soak onto our sleeves…
We parted ways, sad yet gay…
For it was a time worthy of remembrance, day after day…
How much would I give to be with them again…
Hopefully our friendship would blossom,
And never be in vain..
