Desmond and the (near) End of Year Post.

Give us peace when we're torn
Mend us up when we break
This flesh can be wounded and shaking
When there's much too much trouble for one heart to take
Give us peace when we're torn

Give us hearts to find hope
Father, we cannot see
How the sorrow we feel can bring freedom
And as hard as we try, Lord, it's hard to believe
So, give us hearts to find hope

-Faith to be Strong, Andrew Peterson.

This year has come and gone by so very fast. Just like that, its been almost more than 9 months in the army. As a little trivia for you, this would be the first time in these 9 months that I've actually wrote the word 'ARMY' in my blog. (as far as I can rmb.)

As much as it was short, its been really long, if you understand what i mean. Time passes by so fast, but the journey has been really long and tiring. Don't get me wrong, God has blessed me so much, and shown me so much mercy and grace.

I have a very good job, and most things in my life are going smoothly.

Sounds like I'm gonna have a 'but'... but no 'but'. Haha, it is as it is. God has been good.

In 04' I learnt "that faith is trust in the character of God to do what He knows is best" and that "God doesn't change." This year, the understanding that God loves and accepts me unconditionally has really hit home. Or is still hitting home.

Well, till the 31st, where 06's closing entry will come. Let me think what to write. haha..
Till then, Happy birthday Jesus.. erm. I usually ask You to bless my friends when its their birthdays.. maybe we should bless You now. haha, Blessed Christmas everyone.

Up, up and away!
