Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress
them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when
you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates. - Deu 6:4-7
Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that's in you, love him with all you've got - Deu 6:5 (MSG)
The Scripture talks about passing down the commandment to the next generation, to love God. It even specifically says to teach it at home, along the road, lying down or getting up. It seems to imply this teaching should not be confined to Sunday School or Family Altar, but this teaching is to be conveyed all the time.
God, please tear down this wall in my life. I suppose there are a lot more that needs to be torn down too. At some point, I really can't find the strength to fight and press on.
When it comes your time to die,
be not like those whose hearts are filled
with the fear of death,
so that when their time comes they weep
and pray for a little more time
to live their lives over again in a different way.
Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

What are words?
Tonight I thought I could bring a closure to much of my life in hall on NTU campus. I thought that was so...until I finally uncovered the ugly side of it all...
Following the recent win in the IHG Finals for my hall, a VERY VERY offensive write up was posted on the competing hall's website. This despite the very fact that the site is open to public and there are appointed publication heads to moderate what the writers post.
I am very much affected and disappointed.
Not just because of the article, but the fact that I've worked so hard these 3 years to see the team finally entering the finals and clinching the gold medal after 4 years!
Sure we've had a better draw and through the entire season, we were always able to win the games but a slight margin. But the fact that we are in the Finals, doesn't that count for something? Why must one write in such demeaning manner? Is this how people motivate their own by demeaning others?
I don't know why this has gotten hold of me so much...it's already almost 3am and I am still very much worked up inside me. I pray that I will eventually let this go and God forgive me, but I really am affected right now...
Is this why I had to read about PATIENCE for this morning's devotion? Well God, You definitely could not have a more perfect timing than this...
