When You Love Someone So Deeply

Butterfly Mariah Carey

Verse 1

ooh ooh
When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands and watch you rise
Chorus

Spread you wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly (Oooh)
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be, so spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
Verse 2

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land
Chorus

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly (Oooh)
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me, we truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly (spread your wings and fly)
Butterfly (butterfly)
Bridge

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't overflowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye (stand and say goodbye)
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way it feels to fly
Chorus

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly (Oooh)
Fly abandonedly into the sun (fly to the sun)
If you should return to me (I will know you're mine)
We truly were meant to be (spread your wings and fly)
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly (my butterfly)
Chorus

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be (you and I)
So spread your wings and fly (spread your wings and fly)
Butterfly
So flutter through the sky
Butterfly
Fly
Spread your wings and fly
Butterfly.

Remember: Time is needed

Yes, read the above title, time is needed..what a wonderful thing TIME is..glad of the passing of time that will bring me understanding and to bring about the healing of one of my deepest wounds..
I did not recover in just a week's time, a month's time, a year's time..in fact there were times when i wondered if i could recover at all..But i did..as the time passed....

Time is needed...yes!! different people have different mental and emotional make-ups..some are stronger, some weaker, and some are in between..

Susan Tang in her book "Broken Open" quoted:

"The saying that 'time heals wound 'is not true..what is true is God uses the passing of time to heal the wounds.."

Just would love to share her poem:

To smile when heart is heavy
And all is full of ill
when the path of life is dull
And music's tongue is still
When the roses have all dropped and died
And their perfume now all spent
When streams dash madly,
wildly on
With fury giving vent,
When birds are silent in the trees
Beneath a sky cast grey
YES, to SMILE when the heart is breaking
And joy has taken flight,
is ever a courageous thing
And so precious to God's sight

How to deal with your broken heart

Keeping You in My prayer

My clock reads 11.50pm..my eyes are still stubborn and fresh, the phone is silent.
Today is a public holiday..seeing how fast the time flies in few minutes to end this day.

Life has been very quiet and lonely this past few days.Huh..guess this is how he felt when i am busy with my concert preparation last month....he has been a very wonderful person, responsible in carrying out his duty to God..he is young, full of passion for God..and i am very grateful to God for him.

Even though he is God's chosen servant..he does not escape his human nature.But he is a good person. He taught me to be patient at times, taught me to love unselfishly..

Keeping you in my prayer in everything that you do ..though you might not know.

'God sees the end from the beginning, which means worry is a waste of emotional energy, when we know our lives are secure in His hands. If you are His, there's no need to fear the future"-Just for Today - harold J. Sala

By God's will.Amen..

Christmas

December is one of my favorite month of the year because i love Christmas..it's a special month to celebrate Jesus's Birthday..
This week is already the second week of advent. Two more weeks to go before Christmas.
For most of us who are actively serving the church, this month is a very busy month in our calender..some are busy preparing for Christmas Parade, Caroling, Bazaar and etc. Thank God for their dedication to spread Jesus's Love and truly becoming a blessing to the people around them.

Some things are better encountered than explained. So it is with the glory of God. When a sinful man encounters the Almighty and His glory..his life indeed will never be the same.

This morning sermon by Father Basil really moves me..
He talked about "spiritual bullet againts the work of the devil". The importance of coming to daily mass in thanksgiving and to receive Jesus daily in the blessed Sacrament..It is a grace to receive Him everyday!
Coming to mass once a week is not enough..it is true..We want to be firm and strong in our faith to prepare us to face the world out there. He is our armour..and our defender. We want God to live in us..

God gave us an opportunity to live a brand new day everyday..yes, we should be thankful and receive Him daily..We will never know when is the time God will take this life at the hour we will never expected..maybe soon, maybe tommorrow..when your life is taken, are you ready to stand before the Lord?

It is a very beautiful feeling to see children, little babe what more to say if we live during the time of Jesus's birth. It is the greatest gift not even a santa could give..which is the gift of life..This little child was born to die for you and for me. ..

Waiting in The Wings

Waiting..how many times in our lives have we found ourselves waiting? Waiting for things to change, waiting for things to happen....waiting for life to get back to normal..
waiting for more time and money, waiting for the right door to open,...waiting for the right person...
Waiting..waiting..and waiting.....

I don't like to wait..we all don't like to wait..we want action.But God says waiting can be good..waiting needs patience because it will ultimately makes us COMPLETE.

Going through a waiting period does not mean there nothing is happening, because when you are waiting in the Lord, He is always moving in your life.

Even though it may not seem like it, as long as you are walking with the Lord, you are going from "glory to glory" and "strength to strength".

You are always going somewhere in God's plan. And His purpose for you is constantly being realized. But you have to be PATIENT and WAIT for Him to ACCOMPLISH in His ways and in His TIME..

Patience is not resignation. It's a joyful anticipation of the glory that is before you. As you wait for the next scene of your life to begin, centre yourself in the Lord, tell Him you are content to wait..

Tell yourself that you will "rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him" (Psalm 37:7)

The Need to Belong

"God setteth the solitary in families.." Psalm 68:6

In a downtown area one day, an unshaven ex-con walked up to me and said, "Miss, you look friendly", and with that he began to tell me the sad story of his life.

When he finished, he asked plaintively, "will you do something for me? "
"Yes, if i can, " i replied..
"Well, miss," the man began, "not a soul in the world cares if i live or die. So would you mind just thinking of me for a couple of weeks?
If i could think someone, somewhere was thinking about me as a human being, why~ it would be worth so much to me.."

Millions of people feel like this poor, lonely man. They long to feel loved, to really belong,to know that someone does really cares whether they live or die. But there is good news~through faith in Jesus, we literally become His children. And with this comes that good feeling of belonging..

Talk daily to Him..Share your joys and sorrows with Him. He in turn will share His peace, His love with you..And you know that you truly belong..


Psalms 121 (120):

I lift my eyes to the mountains~
from where shall come my help?
My help comes from the Lord,
maker of heaven and earth..

The Lord is your guardian, the Lord is at your side and you in His shade;
Sunstroke will not be for you by day,
nor the spell of the moon by night.
The Lord guards you from every evil;
He will protect your life.
The Lord watches over your coming
and going
both now and forever..

What a great ending to this one grueling week at work.Every day of heart ached and stress finally comes to the end..fuh..!! i don't care of what is coming the next few days (easylah.. to say for now..hehehe) hmmm...God is there already, no need to worry,lah..

sometimes very funny, what really drives and motivates me, i myself unable to explain.Probably the satisfaction that comes whenever i thought of the end results.As long as everybody is happy, and the associate's are happy, consider job well done!! patt..patt welldone to everybody!!..

But deep down in my heart, a voice keep on telling me: "take one step at a time..."
I have a very bad habit of trying to do everything at once..but at the end, there is always a loose end to one or two of the things..macam kata orang.."yang dikejar tak dapat..yang dikendong berciciran..." haiya...semua mau tangkap muat..
enough about work..memang neverending storybook..
The best thing is to remember that God would not give you, something that is too much than you can handle..

Praise the Lord..
Tonite is the ninth nite of the Novena to the Holy Spirit..too bad i only managed to attend 2 nights..and tonite is the last night before Pentecost tommorow.
while i was waiting for my friend outside the church after the novena, Aunty Joyce came out of the church..in her very usual warm smiley and motherly approached me..

We said hi to each other, seeing nobody else was with her, automatically i asked, " are you alone,aunty??'
She smiled at me and answered," yes i am alone.With Jesus.."
My heart was suddenly touched by her answer..for the first time, as if God was telling me.."Edna, when you feel alone, please remember of this day as an opportunity for you to be alone with me.."
so instead of whining when there is no one to talk to, or whenever you are at the loose end please remember that it is a God's call to be alone with Him..

It's been ages since i have been living away from home..since after SPM, and now that i am working, still away from home.And it is easy to feel lonely..very easily..if not because of the presence of friends..and God's presence as well, in which i always took for granted...

Isn't it beautiful, and mysterious how God works in us, through the people around us??
