i'm gonna be great one day, i'ma do something great
Wanna have my name written on a golden slate
I wanna be somebody who will rock the boat
So damned hard nothing will float
Then i was sent to school to be educated
in reality everyone was just indoctrinated
teachers kept talking about staying with reality
now they call it basic practicality
but now i know better its just stifling my creativity.
somewhere along the way i lost my direction
seemed nothing was within except extreme sedition
anti-authority was my way of life
rebel without a cause, you're goddamn right
i had nothing to live for, nothing to do
they took away my hope, told me
my dreams could never come true
its just the way of society to suppress the new
but whatever was coming next they had no clue
then one day i met the Lord above
who showed me the definition of true love
now i know that anything can be done
i've got a purpose now, a vision for us
through Chirst Jesus i now have a cause
still some things don't change at the core
i'm still the guy who can't countenance the norm
still desire to be free of all forms
breathing rebel air to the last
but the Lord didnt trim my mast
now i'm radical for his mission
his master plan for my life
now its back to my childhood days
free from the stifling scythe.

other post-sunday ramblings
first of all, i just adopted pao as my older sister. don't ask me why. sounds fun. now i get to make fun of her mercilessly and she can't do anything about it.
wait, that doesnt change anything from the status quo. heh. never mind, its fun anyway, can evolve more pranks to play from this relationship.
if yer reading this pao, watch out!
heheh. i am dastardly. woo hoo! talk about restoration and liberation by the blood fo the Lamb. haven't felt so much like myself in a long while!
next. lets talk about siblings. older brothers control younger brothers by fear and respect. ever heard the elder son threaten the younger one into behaving? suprisingly, this is more effective than the father's cane. must be the, when i grow up, i wanna be like my brother thingey
then u get about the same thing with 2 girls in the family. minus the threats, add in more lovey dovey stuff.
older sisters get by with younger brothers with sufficient cajoling. if yer younger bro really likes ya, u'll be fine
its the last category that i fall in. and there is simply no solution.
pray to God i get a revelation soon.

amendment. i got 13 stitches that time.
but thats not the subject today. 3 days of Youth Conference. A blast of Sunday service, and a smashing dinner for Father's Day to boot.
let me never doubt the grace of God. Or the fact that i look good wearing His glory. 1, 2, 3, DUH.
today was my first ever major quiet time. 45 min span, post dinner. quite an achievement. planning for 30 in the morn, 30 when the sunlight fades. 1 hour a day.
first to prepare for the day, then to prepare for tomorrow and the sum up plans for the future. this is going to be exciting. i look forward to the day when i hear God's voice physically. not enough to sense Him. Just gotta have a closer relationship.
ALso, today is the first mega-vision i got, that i'm gonna try to fulfil. this one is just hard. its a tough one. I've got contacts and friends in OPSS, HCJC, NJC and duh RJC. and i'm gonna get people in these schools saved and disclipled, and spark off REVIVALS in these places for the LORD. and in 6 mths i'ma do this.
I don't know how, but i'll try. I'll come up with something.
I know it can't be done normally, but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
I know its crazy, but why follow Jesus if i'm not gonna be radical about it. Like Paul said in 1 Cor. Whichever group you're with, u gotta be like them in order to reach out. so if i want the radical people to pick up the Ministry of Salvation, then i gotta be radical to attract them in the 1st place
as a final phase of my plan, gotta bring shunjing back to church. i have every confidence that with his dynamism, ACJC can be won for the Lord too.
Yeah! Hope my fledgling guitar ministry goes well.
well thats the second half of the year, post CCA
Hallelujah!
