"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honour one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual favour, serving the Lord. be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Romans 12: 9-13 blessed, at

"When there was darkness and lightning and thunder when Christ hung on the cross, it was not God angry with the world. God was angry and pouring out His anger in the body of Christ who bore all our sins. In other words, Jesus, at that moment, was the epitome of sin itself. All the darkness in the sky and all the thunder and all the lightning was for Jesus. Jesus absorbed all our sins. He absorbed all that we shouuld have suffered for our sins into Himself. And after three hours, He cried, "It is finished!". and behold, all our sins were paid."
"What kind of people are we that God should suffer for us?" blessed, at

I’ll always remember It was late afternoon It lasted forever And it ended so soon Yeah You were all by yourself Staring up at a darkened sky I was changed
In places no one will find All your feelings so deep inside Deep inside It was there that I realized That forever was in your eyes The moment I saw you cry
It was late in September And I’ve seen you before You were always the cold one But I was never that sure You were all by yourself Staring up at a darkened sky I was changed
In places no one will find All your feelings so deep inside Deep inside It was there that I realized That forever was in your eyes The moment I saw you cry
I wanted to hold you I wanted to make I go away I wanted to know you I wanted to make your everything
I’ll always remember It was late afternoon
In places no one will find All your feelings so deep inside Deep inside It was there that I realized That forever was in your eyes The moment I saw you cry
I think I saw you cry The moment I saw you cry blessed, at

To look upon your face in all Your fullness would mean certain death (Ex. 33:20). Yet You allow me- laden with sin that i am- to enter into Your presence through the blood of Jesus Christ (Hebrews 4:16). and as i approach Your throne, i am enamored with Your beauty. The grandeur and splendor of Your presence astounds me blessed, at

i want church NOW.
thank God for friends, thank God for a strong mum, thank God for a lovely dad, thank God for my annoying but lovable sister, thank God for the house i live in, thank God for a wonderful class, thank God for old friends who don't judge but just listen, thank God for auntie nora, thank God for NCC, thank God for food, thank God for EVERYTHING i feel like the richest girl in the world now, just like pastor prince said!!
counting my blessings = AWESOME
that day me phoe and xuan hung out at life bookshop for AGES and i bought this fantastic book Prayers to Move your Mountains. it rocks man. read this and you'll see why.
Heavenly Father, when was the last time i told You i loved You? often, i get so caught up in the busyness of my life and the concerns of the world that i fail to stop and tell You that i love You. so here i am, expressing these often- neglected words from the depth of my heart: I Love You.
i love You because before i was even created, You loved me (1 John 4:19). when i sought to live my life apart from You, Your love remained the same- ever beckoning me back to You again (Romans 5:8). even when i am unlovely and seemingly unlovable, You continue to love me and accept me because Your compassions never fail. (Lamentations 3:22) when i am faithless, You promise in Your Word that You remain faithful because You cannot deny Yourself. (2 Timothy 2:13) i find comfort and security in the fact that there is nothing i can do to make You love me any more or less than You already do.
i love Your love!!! :) blessed, at
8:39 PM
nowhere in this life or the next that i can outrun Your love :)
no one can touch me like You do. the presence of Your love and the power of Your word extend to my darkest secret and deepest need. Because You are everywhere, You also see into the recesses of my heart. You know my faults, failures, and foibles better than i do. yet even in those times- when i, above all people, detest myself the most- You accept me and call me Your own.
He has made me glad, He has made me glad i will rejoice for He has made me glad-aaaa-had!!! He has made me glad He has made me glad i will rejoice for He has made me glad blessed, at

it feels good to touch the piano again after so long. it does not feel good to hear all the pieces i mangled because i've grown so rusty.
today, i did something drastic, something i would never, under normal circumstances, usually do.
i cut my fringe.
ack, horrors. but i suppose i look okay though.
and since mummy bought me nice earrings i suppose there's no reason not to pierce my ears anymore. my fountain of excuses has run dry. mei pierced hers yesterday and she told me that it certainly did not feel like an ant's bite at all. blessed, at

exams are over isn't it great?? *grins*
so today i corpsebride-ed with phoe and xuan and we ran into loads of people in suntec. haha i liked lunch the best we sakae-ed but we were bonding a lot over lunch it was cool man somemore sakae was so uluated, very good place to bond. =) i feel like sleeping now but i won't la, i'm going to invade this tub of ice cream first. we spent AGES in life bookshop very cool very cool.
no more tuition for this year yeah! blessed, at
5:21 PM
ahh. all that wonderful sugary goodness that i'm managed to consume in my short, short body today.
mmm. =)
anyhoo, i really am so in love with NCC it's so awesome man. because we're learning the right stuff! yay go pastor prince! and i'm so buying one of mr lucado's books. his website is awesome, his church must be awesome too!
and i'm so glad we went to church today though all three of us overslept AGAIN (i still think it's very cute!! ;P) because i realised that NOT going to church for one week really makes a person feel rather ill inside. SO! today my soul was satisfied and kathleen is one happy child of God now filled to the brim with SHALOM peace! today we learnt about blessings and thanksgiving. so i'm going to adopt a new attitude and discover how blessed i am! i realise that after every service i should look through the notes i took else i just toss what i learnt out of the window. yes yes i shall. back to blessings. so i'm going to tell meimei right now how much i love her (i think she'll mime puking but whee, i love her anyway, that too-tall-for-her-own-good-boogerbrain) blessed, at

what is kathleen doing online when tomorrow is the amaths and history paper??
i'll tell you.
because she wants to PRAISE THE LORD for seeing her through the chemistry paper today! i was so frightened in the morning after CL paper 1 and "looked very worried" i was told and i was so frightened, thankyou jacqueline owyong, talking to you was very soothing, i miss you a lot, we have next thursday to look forward to :)
yesyes, like i was saying, PRAISE THE LORD because He really did help me with my paper, i was like "diediedie" but He was like, "no, see? I'm helping you" and i felt so calm after question 5/6 of section A that i knew He was with me :) haha, but i felt like vomiting during chinese paper 1, all the way at the back, had no air to breathe la.
anyway! amaths tomorrow! i shall make aunty jo proud! haha, and oh, history. i pray that Russia'll come out for SEQ man. yay, the Lord is good to me, iloveHimiloveHimiloveHim!!
