went to kota tinggi waterfall resort for YE camp.
i learnt to love the
the gushing waters. the beautiful foliage. the slippery slopes. the powerful waterfall.
that's the campsite. yup.
was in a group called kindberry. it's either short for kind strawberry or kind blueberry or kind raspberry or kind cranberry or kind blackberry. the honored members of this group are Daniel, Sarah, Gary, Max, JianSheng, Christine and ME. yup. Honestly, i didnt like the group as in being in the same group as my dearest brother whom i've seen everyday of my life. but the camp proved that he had a choice to irritate me as daniel seemed like a better option. anyway, he was quite alright in the camp. wasnt as crazy as i thought he would be. thus teaching me not to judge a brother by my imaginations.
played games that were fun and funny. i'm fell like twice. injured once. hurt but still play. only the dirty games than dont play. played station game, a war game. i completed my mission but paid with blood. wrong terrain to play games like this. but it was fun all the while. fiona was telling me how she was being a turtle to prevent her life from being ripped out. in this game, our life was a cup that was taped to our back. as long as the cup is still dangling there, we still have life. many injuries in this game. but was fun. i'll learn how to be more careful.
there's this song that i heard at camp. was quite nice. i think it's the song i've been searching for:
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt of life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand ‘til
He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
In Christ alone I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory let it be said of me
My source of strength, my source of hope
Is Christ alone
now for the camp song. it's called have your way.
Lead me each day Lord
Closer to You
I give all I am to You
Hold me each day Lord
Closed to Your Heart
I lay down my plans to follow You
I want to take up my Cross
I want to lay down my dreams
To follow after You
Have Your way in my life
Holy Spirit have Your Way
Do what you need to
Day by day walk with You
Father let Your will be done in my heart
You said my steps would be ordered
If i walked in Your Will
Lead me, lead me
So come and lead me on
The path of righteousness
Lord have Your way in my life
on the last day, i taped the song. a bit noisy but alright.
played in the waterfalls. was feeling really great. it was slippery. but the waterfalls area was really fun. feels like a freshwater swimming pool. the last time i felt so in touch with nature was at obs in the quarry. but that was like a 20m deep swimming pool. this wasn't. so that's the diff. the depth. had quite a lot of fun.
the journey back was interesting. got to know more about my age group people. all of us except for lien were on the same bus. wanted to study but they switched off the lights. jo and fion was like scolding me asking me not to study. anyway. i had a great time after all.
i want to say how great my GOD is. He has great plans. His ways are higher than our ways. we now know why the camp was in kota tinggi. why the camp could not be 4 day 3 night. we understand now. camp was in kota tinggi. cause it would flood in singapore or the rain would be heavy. not 4 d3n was because if we stayed one day longer, we would have clashed with the flood at kota tinggi. right after we left kota tinggi, the next day, there was flood. the day we returned, the flood in singapore was fading away. this is how great my GOD is. he created my world.
back to school soon. i'm dreading it.
