Science and Faith - The Script

Tried to break her to a science
In an act of good defiance
I broke her heart.
There's a pull up on her theories
There's a watch her growing weary
I broke her heart.
Having heavy conversations
About the frivilous constellations of our souls. oh
We're just trying to find some meaning
In the things that we believe in
But we got some ways to go.
Of all of the things that she's ever said
She goes and says something that just knocks me dead.

You won't find faith or hope down a telescope
You won't find heart and soul in the stars
You can break everything, down to chemicals
But you can't explain a love like ours.

Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real.
Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real.

I tried pushing evolution
As the obvious conclusion of the start.
But it was all my own amusement
Saying love was an illusion of a hopeless heart.
Of all of the things that she's ever said
She goes and says something that knocks me dead.

You won't find faith or hope down a telescope
You won't find heart and soul in the stars
You can break everything, down to chemicals
But you can't explain a love like ours.

Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real.
Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real.

Of all of the things that she's ever said
She goes and says something that just knocks me dead

You won't find faith or hope down a telescope
You won't find heart and soul in the stars
You can break everything, down to chemicals
But you can't explain a love like ours.

Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real
Ooohhhh
It's the way we feel, yeh this is real

WIld at Heart

is a really awesome book! Just spent some time reading it, and woah, I'm already learning alot in just 2 chapters! I'll update y'all on what hit me later. Off to tuition! :P

Like Incense / Sometimes by Step

This has blessed my heart, and I hope it'll bless yours too!

It's more than a song to me I guess, it's kinda like "With Everything", an anthem of faith, a declaration, a sincere prayer of the heart to really allow God to be the God of your life and how much ya love Him. :)

God bless!

New Beginnings / Area One Rocks! / A Beautiful Exchange

Hey there dear reader! :)

Sketchplay.blogspot.com is gonna be started all over again! I'm looking foward to making new changes to the blog and the entries in this one.

This blog will just be a way to update you on what's going on in my life and if there's anything really good that I wanna share I'll let you guys in on it!

"BUT DANIEL, WHERE DID ALL THE OTHER POSTS OF THE PAST GO TO!? YOU SIAO AH?"

Relax. I kept 'em safe, and they're still with me. :) I deleted 'em from here cause after reading through some of 'em, it can kinda kill your mood or make you think funny stuff about me. So we're refreshing, restarting, re-writing it all form scratch!

And the first thing I wanna thank God for would be Area One and Potential Cell.

Oh man, gathering at Samuel Ng's place was really a blast!

First off! Happy birthday to Hilary and Daniel (haha, my "younger self")! God continue to bless both of your ministry! It's hard, definitely, to juggle both cell ministry with studies with personal life, but hey! Y'all can do all things through Christ! :D So yeah, JIA YOU mates!

Secondly, I just wanted to reemphasize the point that yesterday was SUPER DUPER UBER FUN and REALLY MEANINGFUL. From the games, to the fellowship, to the sumptuous dinner... Man was it brilliant!

Gotta really take my hats off to Joshua Sho for like thinking of doing such funny games! Especially "2-line vocabulary"! Oh gosh! I can't help but grin when I think of it! So really, kudos to you mate, and thanks for giving us such an awesome time together. :)

And I found Shiwei's new implementation of "The Circle" sharing really special. We were all given 2 minutes each to share anything under the sun; your life, your mum, dad, studies, ANYTHING! And it's pretty cool if you ask me.

At least, I was able to get to know people better;

Like how the VS twins are really random and humorous!

Like how Natalie still can make NEFEs and scream at the same time, and that she's really funny to watch if you play games that include her.

Like how Sherman actually remembers that I was part of his cell (haha!)! Just kiddin' bro, still love ya.

Like how Zoey is so so so different in person and in a group setting!

...

...

.

and the list goes on!

I kinda messed up my 2 minutes, cause I actually had stuff that I wanted to share, but it just slipped out of my mind when the spotlight was on me! Eeish.

Anyways, what I wanted to say included something like this:

"I'm really grateful for this Area One meeting, the Potential Cell, because I really hope to start making good friends here, people that I can identify with, help one another out and learn from each other's style of leading. "

Community is a big thing for me now, so ya, I really hope to find people that I can connect with here. :) Potential Cell has the potential to help me find close friends! Haha, okay that was lame.

So, back to the main point, I'm feel truly blessed to be in this ministry, to be surrounded by such wonderful, God-fearing, young hearts that are on the mission to take on the mantle of leadership in Cell. It's really heartwarming to see and experience this journey together with such blessed people of God. :)

When I ended my 2 minutes of my sharing, I said that "I love Area One", and that I said with my whole heart.

A Beautiful Exchange: the new Hillsong Live album has really been nice to listen to, not just because of the new music, but mainly because of the meaningful lyrics and that... melody that really usher's in God's presence if you quieten yourself enough. :)

Really a brilliant album to own. Really encourage y'all to get it if ya haven't!

*special thanks to Chloe for helping me buy this! Thanks thanks thanks!!*
