Its Chinese New Year... Memories start flooding in again. Spent quite a while reading the bible just now... Read through Matt 6:25-34... Had a realisation. When Jesus said 'do not worry about your life...' It isn't advice... It's more like a command. God wants me to let go. He wants me to live by faith. He wants me. I'm very sure He wants me to commit this to Him. He didn't answer on whether she'll be coming back or not. I guess this is what you can call a lesson in faith... Let me put it this way... Its the only way I'll have a chance in getting her back.

This is what I am... This is me.
I don't have much to offer. What you get is what you see.
I'm no longer the same. I'm not who I used to be.
I'm a new creation. I was captive but now I'm free

I can provide a shoulder, for you to cry on.
I can give you a listening ear, to understand your troubles.
I can give you a hug, if words aren't enough.
I could be the one, to make you laugh.

I can be the one, you walk through life with.
I could be the one, to take care of you.
I can be a friend, to be there for you.
I can give you love, pure and simple and true.

I can promise that I'll love you always, and I'll always be there for you.
I promise we'll serve the Lord together in everything we do.
If you don't mind these simple gifts. There're only two things I ask of you.
Stay close to God and seek His will, for what He wants you to do.

And wait for me too.
