My name is Shuwen
Shuwen is my name
I am Shuwen

I love photography, beauty, fortune, and worldly possessions.
I adore fawns, bunnies, starbucks, and eiffel tower.

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Sophistication is part and parcel of life.
Life is like a book of unravelling mysteries.
My life is God's novel, God is the author of my soul.

I've come to realise how contradicting we humans are. The ones who had truly bothered and cared about me, to be brutally honest, I have been taking advantage of them. I'm referring to my parents. It's so sad that I say I love them for the sake of my role as their daughter and for the gratitude for bringing me up, rather than really really loving them where emotions are involved. Likewise in my relationship with God. I felt that I've been treating God like a spare tire, seeking him only when in times of need and other times my life wouldn't be revolving around God's affair. I am beginning to be so reflective nowadays especially in times like this when I've fallen for someone. Back then at least I could look at life in a "I don't know I don't care" approach, but now that my feelings and emotions embarks into a roller coaster ride, I really can't deny how guilty I'm feeling right now. The times where I constantly think of someone regardless of the situation I'm in, those moments where it felt so suffocating when you misses someone dearly, whenever you want hear someone's voice even if there isn't any dialogue, the heart aches I feel when I watches someone going through the harsh reality wishing that if only I am the one the taking over. I can't believe all these while I've never considered how God is also feeling the exact same way for me. All the blissful, frantic, and anguishing moments, what would be worst than what God is feeling for me right now. Yet despite of the countless disappointments I've brought about, you know what's so amazing? It's non other that the unfailing love of a heavenly Father's heart. A God who display His love expecting so little, or rather, absolutely nothing in return. A God who sees this guilty party reflecting over here and still bothers to let me know, that "all is well, all is well, all is well..." Oh, the boundless love of God, it's simply overwhelming!



We Cry Out - Kari Jobe [Link]

Father of life seated on Your throne of Grace
Its only by Your mercy we are saved
Lord You've said, if call upon Your name
We and our families will be saved

Father of love, never failing to forgive
Each moment is a gift from You to live
We're only here to tell the world about Your grace
Until the day that You take us all away

So we cry on Your name, El Shaddai, God of grace
Lord most High, Jesus Christ
We rely on your grace, Adonai crowned in praise,
Lord most High, Jesus Christ
