Photos
Delayed photos. Prefect investiture.
I couldn't have survived Prefects without them:P
Me, Shivani and Mark; 3 suspended fools backstage.

Read the headlines.
The most bimbo but yet most lovable friend ever.
Full of crap, we are. Full of nonsense, we are.
Nessie!
I like the angle:P
I'm going to fail english, I just know it. I wrote a poem in school during Paper 2 today, just after I finished it. I wondered how Jesus would feel since people blame God all the time. So, I just picked up my pen and wrote it all down. Two pages, no joke.
I remember their faces,
I remember the places.
I remember their screams ringing,
Calling out to Me
Asking why I wasn't responding.
The muted mouths,
The empty eyes,
Their spirits gone,
Not going to fight.
I hear them asking
Why wasn't I there,
Why I let it happen,
If I even care.
They don't understand,
They know not why
That's why some of them,
They chose to die
Rather to face up,
Challenge their fears,
They bottle it up,
Run from what they held dear.
They tried- many times,
To seek out the truth,
They tell Me that
I'm a useless fool
They don't understand,
That I shared their pain.
When I died on that cross,
I took with me their shame
They chose to relive it,
To take it all back.
They don't want to let me
Take it away,
Because that's all the evidence I have
They'd say.
I really love you,
I really do.
But you never ever
let Me love you
You don't believe Me,
Still think it's My fault,
It hurts Me badly
But I don't say it at all.
I send those who believe
To spread the good news
But rather accept it,
You rejected the truth.
What can I do,
I ask Myself how,
I told the others,
It will all work out
The first step to forgiving
Is to know the way.
It's to tell the whole world,
You're done with the pain.
It's hard to forgive,
I've been there before,
But ever lasting love
Will see you through it all
How'd you think I survive that cross
Or how'd you know if I love you at all
Once more, I'd tell you
I've taken your place,
So don't take it back,
It isn't a game.
You can't turn back time,
You can't stop Me now,
Cos I'll do it again
To see you free-somehow.
The Father told Me
That's what I'll have to do
Carry the cross,
And die for you
His heart was breaking,
When He saw yours breaking too,
The Father- He ain't a fool.
He counts your tears,
Knows your fears,
He sent me,
and so now I tell you
John 3:16
ain't just a verse,
Not a sappy lovestory,
Not a love song- more than that.
Because He loves you,
Because I died,
So won't you let go,
Won't you try?
I know those images,
Will flash in your eyes,
But hang on tight
Cos it will heal- that wound in the heart,
That I promise,
That I keep,
Because salvation
Sets people free.
