Come home running
His arms are open wide
His name is Jesus
He understands
He has the answer you are looking for
So come home running
Just as you are

- Chris Tomlin's Come Home Running

I am currently reading Max Lucado's "Traveling Light" on Psalm 23.
When I was younger, under Mom's tutelage, my sis and I would memorise Psalm 23 (Good News Bible version). This psalm has always been head knowledge for me.

Until now.

Feeling inadequate and downcast for these past few days got me thinking about this psalm and this book really helped me prepare for this situation. I felt like I was in my deepest, darkest valley in my serving and well, ya, for exams.

But with this book, head knowledge turned into heart medicine.
Every phrase in the psalm, as explained in this book, made so much sense and helped me find rest. I was able to turn my gaze on God's guidance instead of my own limitations.

Now, I confidently can say I am out of my deepest valley because He led me through it.

Yes, I don't give depression and the dying spirit a chance to grow their roots within me.

Anyway, a session at Mind Cafe Clarke Quay can do wonders to my soul.
I laughed so much and boy, the adrenaline rush for some games got my almost-numb brain up and running again.

Thanks Van for organising this gathering and...
Denise, Ching, ASK, Benjamin and Andy, you all are great fun to have around too! They are a really great bunch of people to hang out and play games with. Super hyper and entertaining!

Hopefully we can have another session soon before our NTU matric card loses its validity at Mind Cafe ;)
