It's Official! I'm Uncle

At the Care2Care camp last weekend in Kuantan, some of the campers called me "Uncle" David. Frankly there's an instinctive denial of that status/label haha... but... today it's official, my sister is in the process of giving birth to a baby girl.

And I'd be a bona fide "Uncle" - Makes me wanna break into song...

"BILA" a wonderful Homemade Song by CDPC Worship Team (here's the rough demo, you should check out the refined, final product)

Bila

Bila... aku seorang diri
Ku pilu di hati
Engkau yang muncul di sisi

Bila... ku tak berdaya lagi
Rempuh hidup ini
Tuhan, Kau yang sedia berkati

Biarpun aku lemah
Kau tetap berkuasa
Kau sayangi diri ini
Kasih tak terhingga

Ku sembahMu Tuhan Yesus
Ku puji namaMu
Kerana tiada yang seperti Mu
Tuhan peganglah hati ini
Di tapak tanganMu
Hidupku hanya untukMu

Bila... ku berasa gementar
Akan masa depan
Tuhan, Kau yang meyakinkan

Bila... mataku hanya sedar
Kan serba halangan
Tuhan, Kau berikan kemenangan


Biarpun ombak melanda
Ku tetap pandang
Kepada Yang Maha Esa
Penyayang jiwa


Ku sembahMu Tuhan Yesus
Ku puji namaMu
Kerana tiada yang sepertiMu
Tuhan penganglah hati ini
Di tapak tanganMu
Hidupku hanya untukMu

When I am alone and sad in my heart, You appear by my side
When I have not the strength to go through this life,
God You are ready to bless
Even though I am weak, You are still strong
You love me with an unending love


I worship You Lord Jesus, I praise Your name, For there is none like
You
Dear God, hold my heart in the palm of Your hand... My life is only
for You


When I worry about the future, God, You grant me confidence
When my eyes can only see the obstacles, God, grant me victory
Even when the waves crash over me,
I will keep my eyes on The Almighty One, the Lover of my soul

Yup, when I became an "auntie" I wanted to sing too. Now I have 2 lovely nieces who calls me "boh-boh" and when they say it, it just makes your heart melt......
