"It is a time when one's spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death."- Mark Twain

The first time I was reminded of the song, People Need The Lord, was in the last prayer walk for July's MSG. I was doing the prayer walk in the vicinity of the small streets like Hong Kong Street and as I look into the shops where people are still working, I always wonder have they known Jesus? Would their lives be any different if they did? Would they just go on and on everyday in that shop without knowing Jesus?

Just now, Pam showed me the news of the accident this morning on the PIE towards Changi where a car and lorry carrying people got into the accident and overturned. One person died. I remember praying when I heard the news that there would be no death but well it happened. The person who died is a foreign talent and upon hearing the news, again the song People Need The Lord, sprang into my mind.

Everyday they pass me by,
I can see it in their eye.
Empty people filled with care,
Headed who knows where?
On they go through private pain,
Living fear to fear.
Laughter hides their silent cries,
Only Jesus hears.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize -- people need the Lord?
We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right.
What would be too great a cost
For sharing Life with one who's lost?
Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bear.
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize that we must give our lives,
For people need the Lord.
People need the Lord.

I guess the song speaks for itself. I remember coming across many foreign talents who came to Singapore in hope of a better life. But they end up dead in Singapore. Their only hope was in earning more money to give their families a better life but how I wish they would come to know Jesus.

People Need The Lord. What am I doing about it?

Just me--

I am difficult to understand and I hate to be understood. I am best left alone. Just be my friend but do not ever try to show me that you understand me better than myself. I am a loyal person and everyone is my friend until he or she chooses not to be. Actually that is quite easy to understand right. If you hit the right note with me, you will find me very easy going.

I love music. And I love writing music and jamming with my band. Music has accompanied me through the worst times of my life. I thank God for that gift.

I am different and I am not afraid to be different. I hate politically correct people. Its alright to be courteous but not right to be a hypocrite.

I am funny. I love to be funny. I am not afraid to make fun of myself to bring laughter to others. I love making others happy. But I am not a clown.

*Try and scare me*
