POEM

This is the poem that I wrote at the close of the Purpose
Driven Life Campaign (PDL) together with my other testimony
that I have shared on that saturday night in YAF:-


YOU MADE ME REALISED

LORD,
GUIDE ME WITH YOUR MIGHTY HANDS,
PUTTING EACH PIECES OF "JIGSAW PUZZLE"
OF MY LIFE IN PLACE.
NO LONGER DO I WANT TO STRUGGLE,
MAKING A PICTURE OUT OF MY OWN STRENGTH.
NO LONGER DO I WANT TO FEAR WHAT LIES AHEAD.

AS I SURRENDER TO YOU,
I KNOW YOU SHALL BE IN CONTROL.
YOU SHALL CATCH HOLD OF ME FROM BELOW.
AMAZING THINGS ARE YET TO COME.

IT IS YOU WHO HELP ME REALISED,
I SHOULD BE MORE LIKE JESUS.
IT IS YOU WHO HELP ME REALISED,
I SHOULD GROW TO BE A BETTER PERSON.

IN A WORLD FULL OF SINS,
IT IS NOT EASY TO STAND STRONG.
BUT I TRUST THAT YOU WILL NOT GIVE UP ON ME.
HELP ME TO STAND STRONG DESPITE CIRCUMSTANCES.

LORD,
I KNOW YOU LONG TO SEE ME,
TO BE MORE LIKE JESUS,
PLEASING UNTO YOU,
DESERVING A SMILE FROM YOU.

HELP ME TO BE A SHINNING STAR.
HELP ME TO DRAW PEOPLE TO YOU.
BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE CALLED ME TO DO,
FOR EVERY BREATH THAT I HAVE ON EARTH,
TILL WE MEET AGAIN.
