This I Swear...
Helped out at Wei Ping and Christina's wedding today.
It was truly an experience.
White. Flowers. Candles. Sunshine.
Smiles. Almond Jelly. Fruit Punch. Confetti.
Rings. Veils. Vows. Promises.
Wei Ping is one person i really respect.
For many different things,
be it the way he spurred himself on academically
and made it more than worth his while eventually,
or the way he cast aside the things he had that others all wished for
simply to serve the God he loved.
But today, i saw another side of him which i respect deeply.
Courage that leads to true joy. "That of 'finally' " in his eyes.
As he sang that song for Christina and they hugged thereafter,
it almost rekindled my belief in the existence of true love.
Maybe it did, maybe it didn't. We'll see.
What Beth said today was really encouraging.
"that's based on the past and present, not the future."
And the future is in God's hands, is it not?
"I don't know how to tell u all this,
That it's all gonna be fine one day,
And actually make you believe.
That you'll find rest, peace, joy from within.
All the words you shout at me,
Pierce but i will not cry
Because someday we'll see His goodness and faithfulness.
Though you may not understand now,
I know that somehow, we'll be standing there,
Thanking all these ppl who made a difference,
On that day.
And I will be holding your hand,
reassuring you once again."
Author and Finisher of my faith, I wait for You.
Come quick, 10 years later, come.
