yet another day of memories...
Today, I ask for your forgiveness.
Forgive this child,
Who has let her faith be easily shaken
by a C+ in a module.
Forgive me Lord,
For letting the pursuits of this society overwhelm me,
And forgetting to see the bigger picture beyond.
All along, Father, society has measured fulfillment by some common factors.
I refuse to conform for the mere sake of conformance.
You made me gay for a purpose.
I know how painful it can be to be different.
Help me to apply what I have learnt in this area
To the other areas of life.
Give me strength, God,
to also not conform in other areas.
To not blindly pursue grades so as to be "successful";
To be bold and not worry about others' judgments & expectations;
To not be so caught up in my own "failures"
That I neglect others in need.
Abba, teach me to be compassionate and loving.
To learn from my downs,
and to minister to others
even when I am not feeling strong.
You are my rock, and my shepherd.
Give me strength to carry on
Striving to give my best
And committing the rest to your hands.
Allow me rest under your wings when I am tired;
To remember that You are God.
This I pray in Your most precious name,
Amen

Dreams
To be out and open
Independence
To be totally Christ-like
I believe that:
Courage is not an absence of fear
but the willingness to face up to the circumstances in spite of the fear.
