"where I go you know, and the way you know"







I've been wanting to get a tattoo that says something about my Christian beliefs, and so after discussions with regular tattoo artist, decided to incorporate a line from the Bible in the middle of cherry blossoms (because I love Japan forever - even if they don't love people with tattoos - and I love spring, and I love flowers).


"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"

Because Faith has saved me so many times, and I am very tired right now.

Romans Chapter 12:

1. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
2. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
3. For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
6. Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them...
8. He who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
9. Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.
10. Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;
11. Not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;
12. Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer;
13. Distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.
14. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
15. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.
16. Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
17. Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.
18. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peacably with all men.
19. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengence is mine, I will repay," says the Lord.
21. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Come they told me,
A new born King to see,
Our finest gifts we bring,
To lay before the King,

So to honour Him,
When we come.

Little Baby,
I am a poor boy too,
I have no gift to bring,
That's fit to give a king,

Shall I play for you,
On my drum?

Mary nodded,
The ox and lamb kept time,
I played my drum for Him,
I played my best for Him,

Then He smiled at me,
Me and my drum.
