Sidewalks

Currently listening to this song ..

"Sidewalks"
The bridges are crumpled,
The water soaks into rocks,
That fell at the bottom of the road. (At the end of the town)
The town that we lived in.
The memories shaking apart from the weeds that grow.

Over the sidewalks,
Running away from the streets we knew,
Sidewalks,
Like the time we thought was made for you.
Or

Out on the front porch,
watching the cars as they go by,
Eighteen blue, twenty one grey,
Looking ahead for the first time that we could drive,
Out on our own,
To speed away

From the sidewalks,
Running away from the streets we knew,
Sidewalks,
Like the time we thought was made for you.
Or

All of days that past us by,
All of the sun is gone...
Away

Sidewalks,
Running away from the streets we knew,

Sidewalks,
Running away from the streets we knew,
Sidewalks,
Like the time we thought was made for you.
(Sidewalks)
The bridges are crumpled,
(Sidewalks)
The water soaks into rocks,
That fell at the bottom of the road.

I have been thinking about some stuff .. since the day(last friday evening la) I set my foot on this place called Ipoh. A place I called HOME. Well, I have kinda used to those feelings.


I like this picture. The Hidden Beauty and also The Strength of a Lalang. Shall I mention who is the photographer? Hehe..

Currently reading Eugene Peterson's The Journey. And I came across this part which goes like this...
'We speak our words of praise in a world that is hellish; we sing our songs of victory in a world where things get messy; we live our joy among people who neither understand or encourage us. But the content of our lives is God, not man. We are not scavenging in the dark alleys of the world, poking in its rubbish bins for a bare subsistence. We are travelling in the light, towards God who is rich in mercy and strong to save. It is Christ, not culture, that defines our lives. It is the help[from God] we exprience, not the hazards we risk, that shape our days.'

Reading this book.. it really encourages me in my journey with God. A journey of obedience, a journey of dying to self and to live for Christ...
