Find rest my soul
“You only have power over the storm you have peace in.” - Bill Johnson
Don’t be afraid of the fear. It can’t harm me. Don’t be afraid of falling. God can catch me. Don’t be afraid of hurting people. God can heal them. Don’t be afraid of being hurt. God can heal me. Don't be afraid of who I really am. God made me.
Don’t be afraid. Be bold. Be yourself.
(sounds like some kind of Nike commercial slogan doesn't it... oh well.)

This was part of my Cantonese Midterm
I honestly never thought I'd be doing something like this. :P
Translation:
N: Hey, Simon, hello!
S: Nancy! Hi! Wah, the weather today is really warm.
N: Yes it is. Yesterday I thought it'd be dristling today, but the weather today turned out really nice. Did you go out today?
S: No, I had to go to work today.
N: Oh, where do you work?
S: I work at a noodle shop (wanted to say dim sum restaurant but couldn't find the word for restaurant). We sell a lot of things... there's soup noodles, fried noodles, porridge, vegetables... we've got everything!
N: Wah, that sounds yummy! Wonton noodles are my favorite.
S: Mmm, wonton noodles are good. How about you, did you go out today?
N: I did, I went shopping for clothes
S: Oh. What did you buy?
N: I bought a suit. I work in a bank, so I usually have to dress really formal.
S: Wah, so 麻烦 (troublesome). Eh, my boss is here. I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
N: Okay, see you tomorrow. Bye bye!
S: Bye bye!

"Who do you say I am?"
Some say I am one of many good ways to live;
The preference of many, but not true for all.
Some say I'm a philosophy;
A way of living
A moral code.
Some seek Me for the benefits of My kingdom;
The healings, the provision,
The assurance of moral character for their children.
Some say My Son was a prophet;
That He pointed to God
but that He is no more.
Yet some others say I still Am, but that I no longer speak.
Some say I am distant - a cross on a wall.
They think their prayers are like small memos to Me.
Some say I am the way, and rightly so;
But they do not seek Me.
Some say I judge
But they do not believe in My love.
Who do you say I am?
Do you think you will find me if I don't lead you to Me?
Which of man's images of Me have ever proven to be good?
Let Me show Myself to you,
And you will know Me.
