'Go Light Your World'
There is a candle in every soul
Some brightly burning
Some dark and cold
There is a Spirit who brings the fire
Ignites a candle and makes his home
So carry your candle
Run to the darkness
Seek out the hopeless
Confused and torn
Hold out your candle
For all to see it
Take your candle
And go light your world
Frustrated brother see how he's tried to
Light his own candle some other way
See now your sister
She's been robbed and lied to
And still holds a candles without a flame
Carry your candle run to the darkness
Seek out the lonely the tired and worn
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle and go light your world
We are a family whose hearts are blazing
We raise our candles and light up the sky
Praying to our Father in the name of Jesus
Make us a beacon in darkest hours
Carry your candle run to the darkness
Seek out the helpless deceived and poor
Hold out your candle for all to see it
Take your candle and go light your world
Take your candle and go light your world

This was sung at our Christmas Candlelight service.
and somehow it(the song) just made me think, reflect on the past 2006
2006 was so full of drama & all that jazz.
most of all, 2006 as i reminisce, was so full of me, myself & I.
I cant even count the times where i've dismissed family, friends & even strangers because of my own selfish situations.
Family & friends that have helped me in my struggles. People who love me & stuck by me even when i was being such a biach. P e o p l e who were just being N I C E. ah well..
And I feel there's more to life then whining about your irresponsible colleagues, complaining about your ex/bf/gf/partner, drowning in self-pity over your sorry situation and many more which i am guilty of 101%.
Thats not to say dont ever do that. We all need an outlet to vent our frustrations..
But is that all there is to life.. ?
2006 was full of uneasy changes, heartache, dissapointments, sadness & regret.
But thankfully, it was also full of joy, great expectations, fresh start, good changes & pleasant surprises.
I think i'm gonna make this song my motto for the year 2007. Good or bad, lets remember there's more to life then ourselves..
Here's to all the Good a n d Bad thats to come in 2007!
