I went to church at Zion Praise Harvest and their choir sang this song:
Along life's road
There will be sunshine and rain
Roses and thorns, laughter and pain
And 'cross the miles
You will face mountains so steep
Deserts so long and valleys so deep
Sometimes the Journey's gentle
Sometimes the cold winds blow
But I want you to remember... I want you to know
You will never walk alone
As long as you have faith
Jesus will be right beside you all the way and
You may feel you're far from home
But home is where He is
And He'll be there down every road
You will never walk alone
(never, no never)
The path will wind
And you will find wonders and fears
Labors of love and a few falling tears
Across the years
There will be some twists and turns
Mistakes to make and lessons to learn
Sometimes the journey's gentle
Sometimes the cold winds blow
But I want you to remember where ever you may go
You will never walk alone
As long as you have faith
Jesus will be right beside you all the way and
You may feel you're far from home
But home is where He is
And He'll be there down every road
You will never walk alone
Jesus knows your joy,
Jesus knows your need
He will go the distance with you faithfully
You will never walk alone
As long as you have faith
Jesus will be right beside you all the way and
You may feel you're far from home
But home is where He is
And He'll be there down every road
You will never walk alone
~~It was yesterday that I recalled the memories of the previous year... Becoz Mom has been gone since July 13th and (I still don't know when she is coming home) I started reminiscing.. I know I am suppose to be independent but I just miss having family around, running around the house acting crazy... I miss having my brothers sitting on the couch playing PS3 or XBOX with me squished with them... Mom would be in the kitchen either lovingly and lavishingly cooking up a storm (delicious btw) or sitting with us probably on the floor (her fave spot) and beg us to stop playing games and make us watch a DVD instead (probably another chick flick) which isn't all that bad...
I thank God for friends that are like my home away from home.. But I miss family for the reason that they are there (in the same city at least) all the time.. Since I have grown up with them, they know me like the features of their face (at least my mom does) and tolerate me and my behavior... haha.. I miss the fact that they are there to make you a nice noodle soup (ramen) with an egg and spam when you are lazy or sick or just plain tired, watch movies, have walks downtown where we gaze at the pretty christmas lights on the city streets or just talk and share dumb ideas that'll make us laugh over a cup of hot chocolate... But just being with one another was enough for us... One thing I love about family is the unconditional love that they share and the moments that we make together..
BUT...
-----You know I never ever get emotional on songs but this one hit me hard and I couldn't help it...
And it made me remember who I had and who I still have in me...
And I am more than grateful, God... Truely... I thank You for my life and for everything in it...
