I am proud of IJC s council. For a first time big event, they execute it with style.
Teacher's day performance was highly entertaining.
Our own teachers put up a drama acting as students, making fun of one another, and threaten to ban exams. The characters and plot in the story is partially based on the series Heroes.

Its kinda weird, but recently, Mr Lim has proven my father word's true. Mr Lim shown enough, to show that he actually cares.
I hope Mr Lin and Mr Cho sees the full extent of the appreciation and love embedded in our small yet significant gifts.

A sense of nostalgia overcomes me this afternoon.

I would say today, is the day that motivates me to be a teacher.
It seems to me that the career of teaching, is the only career that your past "clients" visits you.
However, entering teaching just for that simple reason would be too naive.

Where does your thoughts lead you to?

What do you see in his eyes?
What do you see through the placing of the fingers?
What do you see through those two holes?
Or should i use the word "these" instead of "those"?

What do you think is beyond, what you see?

Are you the one trapped within, or he who looks at you?

He is simply...
in need.

Mute Math - OK

Down on my knees down on my face
You just say it's ok
So many days I've thrown away
You just say it's ok
I don't think I could ever repay
Your perfect grace, but it's ok

It's ok, It's ok
It's ok, It's ok
You've become my embrace
Just tell me it's ok

Your precious words intoxicate
A heart that aches; it's ok
You don't recall my past mistakes
You just say it's ok
The human mind can't calculate
Your perfect grace, but it's ok

Even though you've seen a thousand times
I've let you down
You're always there if I should call your name
You're unashamed, unashamed

This song aptly puts in perspective the human fragility, our downfall, weaknesses, and most importantly redemption through God's grace.

I've been trying to explore the boundaries of grace, and i have yet to find any.
Rationale logic would have told me that there is no boundaries to the grace of God, yet i search hard.
I search hard because i want, yearn and struggle for His grace, His infinite grace.

Grace in itself inhibits the underlying decision to take things for granted. If we had not sin, if we had not taken His love for granted, His word charged onto Adam and Eve for granted, would grace still be needed?
Would grace be the key tool of redemption to our dying souls? (David Lurie, Disgrace)

Grace.

Power at its utmost beauty, and simplest of them all. Gentle is its nature.
Grace, is the evidence, of God's Love.
Grace, is the proof that God is God.
In all measures.
In all ways.

Anyway i find this song extremely astounding. This is what i call lyrics with depth, it definitely beat songs with lyrics that only express our desire for Him.
When such lyrics show our fragility, our fallen mind, doesn't it make you feel so...so in need of Him? Yet at the same time, making clear to us, His infinite worth, and unending love?
It simply increases our understanding of Him doesnt it?


Grace is the evidence of God's love.


This line somehow captivates me beyond words.
