請原諒我
原諒我不成熟
不愛妳是藉口
好讓妳離開我
請原諒我
好想自私將妳佔有
妳的寂寞就給我承受
換妳過更好的生活

What are words
If you really don't mean them
When you say them
What are words
If they're only for good times
Then they don't
When it's love
Yeah, you say them out loud
Those words, They never go away
They live on, even when we're gone

Only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you’ve never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can’t wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself.
Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Colours seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn’t exist at all.
A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day’s work or school and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there’s no need for continuous conversation, but you find you’re quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do.
Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there’s a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that’s so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life.
Thank you. :)

给你写这封信，让你知道我关心你，让你更认识我。
早上你醒来，我把一道晨光射进你的房间，希望你留意我，你却匆匆而别。
然后，你与朋友在路上同行闲谈，我使你沐浴在温暖的日光之下，使你浸沉在大自然芳香之中，你却匆匆而别。
你没有留意到我。
然后，我在刮风下雨之中向你呼喊，为你在天上描绘美丽的彩虹。
你朝我轻轻一望，却仍是匆匆而别。
晚上，我在你脸上洒满月影，轻拂柔风安抚你受惊心灵，看守着伴你入眠。
我了解你的心思，我与你如此相近，你只隐约觉察。
我已拣选了你，给你独特的使命，希望你早日与我一谈。
我带你越过风暴，别人却不能再见晨光。
我就在你身旁，是你的朋友，永远爱你。
你的朋友耶稣
- Is holiness only for the holy?

This is the second time I am reading Holy Available. Not really the second time because I haven't offiically completed it. But it gives me a new perspective of what God expects of me and us. As what other readers have stated, the first chapter alone is enough to blow you away. But does it stop here? Is holiness just for saying? Is holiness just for the pastors or the 'holy' ones?
No. I guess everyone knows that holiness is for every single person. We are His eyes, mouth, ears, minds, hands, feet and heart to one another and to the rest of the world. We cannot be content to just go through the motions when we can be transformed into His likeness and do the things that need to be done to extend God's kingdom here on Earth.
I learned to see people how Jesus sees them. I try to speak the words Jesus would say to people as if He was their ambassador. And most importantly, I must fill my mind with thoughts from the very mind of God. To be holy available is definitely not something I can ever do with my own strength. I need to be God-empowered. I need to be transformed into God's likeness, day by day, and it starts from the inside: my thoughts, attitudes, values and motives. These inner parts of our hearts that God can see.
Of course, as seen in Chapter 3, we are still in the flesh. As much as we want a life of holiness, we are living under the weight of sin. It feels demoralising at this point, a feeling of being bounced back to reality after 2 ideal chapters. At least it feels demoralising for me when I read chapter 3. But then again, I thank God that I draw hope and strength in Jesus. He saved me and I was declared righteous by His work on the cross. To live a life of holiness, I must "put off my old self". Yes, this doesn't sound easy at all and it takes effort on my part to take up my cross DAILY and follow Jesus. There is no instant and effortless path to holiness. It is painful. But I take faith in God that I will eventually be santified, not by my own efforts, but through faith in His grace! :)

Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise
