Tuesday, October 05, 2010 WHEN I AM WEAK

I'm so over mandopop, but I'll always tune in to radio during exams/intensive mugging periods.
This song on 93.3fm caught my ear- JJ Lin's new song for his world tour, 《I AM》



落在手里一颗泪滴 清澈地却已溶化 活在人间 我的压力和疑惑
爱和理想怎么评量 闯过难关避开受伤 其实我和凡人都一样
担心路会走错方向 担心她不放在心上 担心生命不再充满渴望
It’s when I’m weak that I am strong
我脆弱 却不退缩 确定路在对的方向 确定她在我的心上
确定生命永远有希望
It’s when I’m weak that I am strong
我脆弱 却不退缩 我脆弱 却不退缩



I typed something on tumblr, about what happened in school today.
I thought this song is timely...
As I typed, I assume the 2nd 'I AM' is caps, referring to God instead of the being.
And I did the post as 'WHEN i am WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG'. It really was his intentions.

Obviously (I think), JJ drew inspiration from this verse:


2 Corinthians 12:7-10 (New International Version)
7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Another thing I came across this week...



Presenting God through arts, expounded by media...
It's been an inspiring week of new finds.
