Hey everyone.Crystal here:) How's life? work's starting to get busy for me. Anyway, wanted to share a song I heard over the radio on my way home..and personally it refreshed me to hear songs over the radio that might sound secular but the lyrics are actually pointing towards God:) I once heard there's no christian music but rather it's the lyrics that makes the music different.
The song is called Footprints in the sand and it's based on the story Footprints in the sand. I'm sure most of you would have heard it, but just in case you haven't, below its the story:
Footprints in the Sand!
Last night I had a dream. I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonged to me, the other to the Lord.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that at many times along the path of my life, especially at the very lowest and saddest times, there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it. “Lord, you said once I decided to follow you, You’d walk with me all the way. But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life, there was only one set of footprints. I don’t understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me.”
The Lord replied, “My son, my precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of suffering, when you could see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

1. I am aware that some of you have tried to help manage this blog to make it a better one =) Really thank God for you guys!
However, do e-mail me the 'before' and 'after' template to michelletham@live.com.sg so that I can follow-up on the template, in case there's any mistakes in the html etc.
Also to let me know of the changes.
That means do remember to copy and paste the template(before you do anything) onto word document first.
Partly cos the tagboard was slightly meddled with (which I believe is accidentally), but thank God its not much of a problem since we can simply copy and paste
the tagboard again haha!
