Sharing of lives

As per title, is it easy for you to share your life with others? Is it easy for you to open up your life to people? The people can be your family members, friends, relatives, colleagues etc etc..

For me, I find it very hard.. not only hard, but also uncomfortable with it.. I'm just not used to telling people about myself.. I find it so awkward to tell others about what's going on in my life, the things that happen to me, around me, and to tell others what I'm thinking and feeling. .It's like a sense of loss of privacy and to show the vulnerable side of humans.. I guess I'm a very insecured person..

But anyway, I want to thank one of my sis for sharing and opening up her life to me just recently. I really admire her for her effort to want to share her life with me.. (I feel that sharing to someone like me is like sharing to a 'stone' at times.. ) It's not that I don't have a heart to feel, but I just don't know what to do or how I should react..

I hope to change really in this aspect.. which I foresee will be an uphill task..
But still, with God's power, anything impossible will become possible..

:)
God bless all.

Usher service

Heh, today Ushers' get-together session was very fun!!
Though we walked all the way from Orchard mrt to Botanical Gardens.. under the hot scorching sun.. it was a good time for fellowship.. heh.

When we finally reached Botanical Gardens, we met some other ushers.. they really made us feel very welcomed and comfortable.. :) overall it was a very fun session.. we played quite afew games.. and interacted with other ushers... interesting.. hahah.

Really looking forward to this new service to God, and hope to bless others & more people during this walk with God :-)

God bless all :)

Insomnia..

It's now 4am.. and yet I'm not in bed.. The aftermath of slping too much yesterday...
Partly is cos of the slp, but it might also that there's many thoughts going on in my mind...

Let me think.. it's been 162 days since I came to know God.. about 5months & 12days.. woah. It's really fast isn't it.. the memories are still fresh in my head.. it's like everything happened just only yesterday.. happy things are always unforgettable..

Today I'm very happy, for I get to see the nyc people! And I get to chat with them.. very very happy.. It's been quite a long time since I last chatted with them.. yea, I missed them.. I only will be able to see them during svc.. and sometimes even service I had no chance to chat with them, for each CG has their own activity after svc..

Just wanna say that I really really love and cherish this family of God.. all the sisters & brothers.. many many thanks to my beloved sister Corinna!! (hehe) Yea, u r my best sister forever! :) Though it seems like I always bully u (hahaha) but u know I don't mean it! Thanks for bringing me to know this family of HOPE! Without your 'invitation' to go to SBS during the exam period, I doubt I'll be what I'm today.. Thank you very much!

God bless all :)
(and yep, I need to slp now.. or tmr ushering event I'll confirm be very restless..)

Good nites!!

Our Purpose..

My friday.. was.. okok, not say fruitful, but I did sleep alot.. really alot.. cos really dunno what to do.. so I just listen to Mp3 and unknowingly, I feel aslp.. Practically, my friday was spent on reading Bible, sleep & playing game.. But I recuperated all my lost sleep since monday :) Praise the Lord.. hehe.. Now I'm wide awake :)

Today I met mm before svc (and rach for a short while).. it wasn't on bible study, but rather just chit-chat cos it's been sometime since we last chatted.. maybe abt 3 weeks ago.. today's session was more on sharing.. and I'm very thankful tt mm shared.. really. I think my character is such that I don't open up easily.. maybe I'm not used to the concept of sharing my life with pple.. it's something which I'm trying to change.. I guess I need more time (and I mean really more).. it's just like changing one's inborn character (and it can be that hard...).. However, the thing with being with God, with this family, is that everyone need to open up and share their lives with one another.. that's how and what God wants us to be.. to share lives.. to understand and know other people.. not just on the surface, but the deep down matters of the heart too..

Really hope to change myself on the aspect of sharing.. and also to show more concern and love to my sisters & brothers.. I feel I'm not exactly like before, like how often I'm so enthusiastic in blessing other people, how enthusiastic in knowing people and to know the WOG.. It's not totally that I'm not doing at all, but the spirit isn't really there.. hence not much effort put in to bless, know & read the WOG.. It's very true that it's super easy to backslide, day by day, little by little, soon u'll find yourself further & further away from God.. Right now, my spirit is still with God (himself), and I want to cling to him firmly.. I really look forward to every sat's svc.. esp. the Praise & Worship part.. cos it always pulls me closer to God... it makes me feel how God is so impt to me, how real He is and how much I needed him to be in my life...

May God be a blessing to everyone, and everyone be a blessing to every others..
God lives in us, and we in Him...

Friday Yippie!!

Muahahha! Guess why I'm not in bed yet!! It's 2am in the morning!! 2hrs past my normal bedtime.. cos.. TMR IS MY LEAVE!! :) haha. *shiok shiok* Dun need wake up early and slogged to pull myself up from bed.. weeeee *happy*

I realized that I'm super productive in work when I'm alone with nobody around me.. Today I'm all alone in client's place, and I finished all the work that I thought I'd only complete on next mon/tue.. The sense of satisfaction is... woooots! amazing!! U know why I managed to finish? Cos I stayed back till 8pm to finish haha.. I dun like to leave things lying around, especially since tmr friday I'm gg to take leave.. and the next time I can do the unfinished work is like mon.. (this is even more sian cos of monday blues..) The feeling is so shiok lol! I think anything is possible, just as long as u put in time and effort into it, and focus on completing it..

I also think I'm a workaholic at work.. heh. Once I start work, I can't stop unless people shoo me away.. This line of job is just 'perfect' for me.. not taking into account the super tight deadlines and crazy working hours (OT)...

Nvm, jia yous all!
God will bless everyone of us!

Midnight Thoughts

It's now 1am.. and surprisingly, I'm still wide awake.. (I've work later argh!)

What kept me awake was the blogs.. I've to admit it has been sometime since I last blogged or read others' blogs.. Today somehow, there's this feeling of wanting to read others' blogs.. it's like a means of knowing what's going on in that person's life.. As I read through some of the blogs, it made me ponder over some issues.. I really feel I should count myself lucky, to come to know of God, God's family and all the other little little things that has been going on in my life..

Seriously, if one would to ask me this question "Do you think your life will be like today if u haven't come to know God", I would give a clear answer "No". Ever since coming to know of God, I'm sure definitely there's changes in me, like my character, my behaviour, my mentality etc etc. The changes might be minute & gradual, but I'm very sure God has or rather the Bible has taught me to change for the better. I had never expected myself to be a Christian (seriously ya).. I never even thought of it before, not until the time during the exam period (heh).. Life can be that unpredictable..

I wonder what will I be today without God in my life.. Hmm.. I never looked back seriously.. People who looked back are those who regret their current life.. which I don't.. For that question, I really never thought of it before.. All I know is.. I won't be as happy as I am right now with God in my life.. Not only happy, but inclusive of blessed, gratitude and being optimistic.. My family knows me best.. haha. All the bad things abt me, they all know very well.. =x But they've never once scolded me (that's why I really love my mum cos she can really tolerate me.. even I myself couldn't tolerate myself.. yet she could..) I think her love for us simply overwhelms all our bad things.. And she also didn't object to my faith in God, being a Christian.. despite our dad being a buddhist.. So glad and thankful that there's no persecution in our family..

Well, I believe that our life is all planned by God. Even the most unexpected things can happen.. Though we can't see for real who is Jesus, who is God, whether He really exists.. it's all in our mind, in our hearts.. God sees our hearts.. He knows clearly if it's real or one that's fake..

If you are currently a Christian, God bless you! For we all belong to the same God's family! :)
But if you've yet to come to know God, I'll pray that one day you'll get to know of Him and join in our family!

God bless all!
Love ya :]

Leave on Friday!!

So far everything's cool & smooth.. Praise the Lord!
Today's work was quite rush, but I learnt new things yippee! Oh and yar, there's so much things to learn!!! Wonder will I be able to learn & know everything.. (seems like a really challenging task..) Hmm, and was rather tired the entire day and actually for this entire week for I'm doing self-research on my job scope (so that when the peak period kicks in, I won't be so "sotong" and keep asking my team questions).. hah. Can is can ask, but not very nice to keep disturbing them when they have tonnes of work to do themselves too.. But hahaha, I applied for leave this friday!! hip hip hurray! (no particular reason, but just wan to take leave :] ) Maybe to sleep more.. heh..

Rest while u can.. heh. Take a break when work gets too much.. Jia you jia you!

God bless all!
Love you all, my sisters & brothers :)

Blessed life

Hmm.. been some time since i last blogged..
2 more weeks to my OT.. yep. It's coming.. The dreadful day is finally going to arrive.. A taste of the real working world is just within sight.. Jia you!!

Recently nothing special or extraordinary happened.. Everything was quite peaceful and smooth. I like this kind of life :)

God bless all!

Hmm...

Today my feelings were mixed.. The solemn, abit sad mood is due to work-related matters (which I can't reveal here due to confidentiality issues).. But rest assured it's not about me, it's about my colleague.. but well, que sera, sera..

Oh and yupp, today my work ended on a high note! well, it's again due to work issues.. haha.. Can't reveal much due to same reason, but all thanks to the people! :)

Overall, just want to say that working can be both a pleasure and yet a dampener.. Don't succumb to the cons of working, instead strive on towards the pros!! (it's a reminder to myself now, in the future, and in the future future)..

Live a life worth living! (heh, and of cos, with God! haha)

God bless!

You Lord

Oh yep, recently been trying to find the song "You Lord" online but to no avail.. The song can be found in the album "Paradise Worship: Only by grace".. It's a very new released album! That's why.. haha. The song captured my attention when I was in ACTS bookstore on monday :) Anybody got its MP3? =x

Work has been quite smooth-sailing still, though there can be quite alot of stuff to do.. currently still adapting to this job (but more or less settled down already).. and cham!! the peak period is coming.. October is my peak period.. can't imagine what time will I OT till everyday.. but don't think too much right at the moment, haha.. QUE SERA, SERA (whatever will be, will be)!!

And yar, MY!.. I d/l the song QSS leh! It's in my handphone.. haha. Sing sing next time ar.. haha.

God bless all sis & bro :)

Que sera, sera

Today.. I had a weird starting on my way to work.. not sure why, but suddenly when the train reached city hall, I suddenly feel like puking and got a very strong urge to squat down (The urge to puke is really very strong and I really think I might just vomit anytime). The 1-2minute from City Hall to Raffles Place seemed ages.. I desperately need to sit down.. at least to squat down to curb the puking.. And finally when it reached Raffles Place, I quickly sat down on the bench (still inside the mrt).. When I sat down, my body suddenly perspire and I can feel the sweat.. it's like a sudden gush of sweat just escaped from my body and I'm suddenly perspiring all over.. All it took was like 5min, and thankfully the urge to puke ceased and yar, I went to work of cos..

Surprisingly today I accomplished quite a fair bit of work.. I had infact quite a lot of amendments & tasks to do today, and I cleared almost all before I left home! I was amazed really. I didn't think I would be able to finish by today.. But well, I did.. Haha, happy happy! But the faster work you clear, means the next day there'd be much more new tasks to do.. =X

Oh and I saw a nice quote today in Today's newspaper: "Que Sera, Sera". It means "whatever will be, will be". Cool right?? That's so true.. x)

Cheers.
God bless!

Mum's Birthday Celebration

wohoho, today is my mum's brithday!
I think she's very happy ar.. our entire family went to a steamboat restaurant in Takashimaya to have lunch. Cos most of us are quite full, we ordered ala carte instead of buffet.. And yesh, we got to taste their specialty dishes! There's this egg omelette with noodle, squids & prawns as filling.. woooo, I love this dish alot!!
Though the egg is rather salty, but I still like it! haha.. I like the steamboat too x)

And yippee! I finally bought Nokia E66! At a price of $368 with a 2 yr plan.. Personally I think it's rather expensive.. If only I could wait like 3 more months, the price confirmed will drop.. But.. Well, I'm not too sure if the price is justified with the model.. cos my uncle and my dad's friends who worked in HP shop, said this model has quite a no. of problems, especially all the more since it is a slide phone.. the more u slide it, the more loose it become.. Hais. But I'm still attracted to this particular model somehow.. despite the negative comments about it..
And.. I'll only buy Nokia models.. (IMO, nokia phones are the best)

Mooncake Festival

Yeah!! It's mooncake festival!! Haha. It's a time to enjoy yummy mooncakes, but also a time to drink lots of water! (and I mean LOTS..) Or you'll find yourself with a bad sorethroat the next day..

Just this Friday(12th sep), our YG went to ECP to celebrate mooncake festival! We had a BBQ! Heh. Thanks to all my sis & bro who bought the food & everything & made the celebration a success! Praise the Lord that it didn't rain too! It was our urm.. 1st of such gathering w/o Praise & Worship.. haha. Just being able to chit-chat & look at the moon (hmmm...) is also quite nice.. Though it ended quite late, but it was worth the time x)

Happy Mooncake Festival to all!!

Life + Work

Nowadays I really look forward to going home.. to just slack, relax & enjoy the peaceful & beautiful night.. And when morning arrives.. my mood & spirit drops.. :'X

And it's only the beginning of my working life.. Not to say that my working life is very stressful, but I prefer time spent alone, not rushing & able to do things at my own pace, and of course, to do whatever things I like :)

Take hold of own life ar.. Don't let it take hold of you..
GAMBATTE!

Germs, viruses & bacteria

Urmm.. today I'm in office.. Yepp! Ok la, wasn't that fantastic, but at least I get to chit chat with my same batch of colleagues x) Tomorrow onwards I'll be back at client's place (till next yr..) It can be my 2nd home ler.. I spent almost half a day there everyday..

oh yar, today right, I mean recently like the germs, bacteria & viruses keep coming at me.. Since last fri been having fever, cough & sore throat.. Then tue have blocked nose, and today wed, my taste buds & sense of smell totally gone! (If u put me near a rubbish chute, I'm sure I won't budge, cos I smell nothing) Whatever I eat, there's no taste.. seriously, unable to taste & smell is NOT a happy thing. And suay suay today, my left eye was reddish. I only knew when my colleagues pointed it out to me.. They say should be due to my contact lenses.. And it's very common to people who wore contacts.. I didn't realize it was reddish as there's no pain at all.. Maybe I'll wear spec tmr to work..

But ok still, at least I still survived! Till then...

Exceeding Joy

Nice song!!

Cough Cough Cough

Today was practically a 'chionging' day at work for me.. Though there's no hurry in finishing, somehow I just want to do as much as possible.. And yep, I finished all or most of it just before work ended! *CHEERS* But yar after that, I was totally shagged & drained.. Brain totally shut off.. I'm trying to push myself to be more efficient & productive, though I'm feeling rather sick, coughing & feeling hot all over... But I don't want take MC again cos I just took last Fri..

And then today after work I had to go back office cos there's a meeting for the whole team.. It's a short meeting held by our partner (cool! partner leh..!!) It was rather tense &.. solemn.. but well, throughout the meeting, I was trying super hard not to cough.. cos the room is enclosed & the air is so still that even a gulp of your saliva can be heard.. And I don't know why, my throat itch so much during the meeting that I kept on coughing.. And for goodness, I can't seem to stop the itchiness.. When I tried to control & resist coughing out, my whole face become so hot, my eyes become teary with water (I'm not crying), and the worst is.. the itch at my throat became even more itchy.. the 30min in the room was pure torture(seriously). In the end, I did really cough out a few times (ok, maybe alot of times), and non-stop coughing.. I think is the enclosed area made my throat itch so much.. I feel so awkward & pai sei throughout the meeting.. Such a disobedient throat..

But good thing is tmr I'll be in office for 1 day.. (Finally!) I missed my colleagues.. Must spend time wisely tmr with them! :)

Lifehouse's Everything Drama

Somehow weirdly, just only, my friend who studied Catholic, sent me this youtube link.. I saw this youtube video before.. while I was still a v.new believer, Huimin sent me this link too.. That time it didn't make any sense, so I asked her to explain what the video meant.. After seeing it a 2nd time, it revealed in me how great is our God, how persistant He is in not giving us up to the evil, how protective He is over us...



Hope this video brought back renewed vision to those who needed it..

One Thing (Hillsong) video

I really totally enjoyed listening to this song.. The lyrics are simple, yet very meaningful & true.. Hope u guys will enjoy this song too..

PS: Currently the default song is also 'One Thing'.. so if you want to watch the video, pls pause the song in the right sidebar and play the video :)



One Thing (Hillsong)Lyrics

One thing I desire
One thing I seek
To gaze upon Your beauty
And Your majesty

God of my salvation
Lifter of my head
Teach me how to live oh Lord
In Your righteousness

So I pray to You
So I pray to You

Lord Your name
Is higher than the heavens
Lord Your name
Is higher than all created things
Higher than hope
Higher than dreams
The name of the Lord

In the day of trouble
You cover me
In the secret place of refuge
Lord I will sing

I will seek Your face
Call upon Your name Jesus
All I want is You
Jesus

Euthanasia?

Today.. I woke up at 11am.. usually 1st thing in the morning I would flip through the newspapers to see if got any major news.. Today what caught my attention was about a lady who predicted her death to be on 11 Feb 2008 @ 6.15pm.. I was thinking "How could a person predict the day & time of her death"? And it dawned upon me.. possible... Euthanasia... The lady had secondary cancer in her lungs.

Before today, the closest I got to read & understand more about Euthanasia was in JC, when there's a GP essay on Euthanasia.. Today's reading brought me back to the topic... As I read through how the lady lived her life for the last few days, how she arranged her funeral to be (yes), and how her family members coped with her.. It felt so real.. that life is really so vulnerable.. The thing that made me ponder was her mindset.. the reason that she chose euthanasia over living her last few months was that she did not want people saying, 'How sad, that beautiful hair all gone.'.. She feared the condition of worsening and losing control of it..

It brought back to me, that God want everybody to live.. God gave life to every single creation.. He created all things on Earth.. Is it right in his eyes to end a life earlier, or on voluntary reason.. even though the decision came from the victim himself/herself... I really couldn't figure out.. Will I have to come to such a decision in future? And if so, will I choose the same route as this lady here.. I really don't know...

PS: If u want to read more about it, it's in "The Sunday Times, 7 Sept, Pg 29"...

Keep the Faith going

Today's service was powerful.. The pastor who spoke today is in-charge of the Philippino group.. (I forgot his name.. ) His sharing today was.. amazing.. He spoke of many things abt God that illustrates how God is so real and how powerful & wonderful he is... Some eg:

1) Give yourself fully to God, and he'll help to manage your life

+ I hope to achieve this in time to come.. Though it might take some time, more commitment & settling of priorities, I believe that God is everything that we live for.. I really need to strengthen my faith in him in order to obey & submit to him completely.. this is something which I'm currently still struggling & trying hard to follow..

2) If God is for you, who can be against you?

+ I need more time to think this through...

3) Live a life that truly matters to God

+ To live a life that is holy & worthy of his praise when the judgement day comes.. My current life is not perfect.. and it's full of flaws... Definitely need to pray & seek more revelation in this aspect...

God bless.
U are so real..

Self-made mooncakes

woahh.. today suddenly my mum make mooncakes..

(her favorite hobby is to attend cooking classes.. )

that's like totally opposite of me.. I can't cook/bake for goodness..

My uncle helps out too.. only me didn't... I'm only interested in taking photos.. :'X

:)

God, we need your help

Today I took MC from work, cos I woke up with a huge headache & feeling v.dizzy... When I stood up, my brain is like.. v.tight & my eye vision kind of blurred.. need a few sec to clear the blurness & see straight.. Maybe cos not enough sleep or it's an indicator or something... so I went to see a doctor @ 9am, and doctor said I've slight fever & prescribed some medicine "Paracetamol" for fever and "Dimenhydrinate" for giddyness... But when I reached home, I didn't take the medicine & fell back onto bed & slp... till now... maybe I'll take it soon..

While I was waiting at the clinic for my turn to see the doctor, I received a SMS from my sis (MM).. it was a msg that made my heart stop beating for a few sec.. It was a SMS abt our bro, whose bro-in-law is now in a coma due to a clot in the brain.. All I could think of was how's the condition of his bro-in-law, how's my bro coping with it, is everything alright etc etc.. so many questions flood my mind.. but it wouldn't be nice if I keep asking abt the situation for he must be traumatised by the sudden news and he also needs time for himself to pray & settle his mind..

Now is the time to really pray & seek God for his help.. prayer & fasting (like what MM said), we should do more of P & F, use the time wisely to pray to God, to talk to Him so that He'll reveal His power and protect the bro-in-law.. and also that everyone close to Him will be able to take the news.. I know God is there, and He has heard our prayers.. No prayers will be left unanswered.. So let's continue to pray for the bro-in-law & not giving up any hope..

God, pls pls protect the bro-in-law & wake him up from the coma..

God bless.
Amen.

Stunning picures of the Cross

Was surfing the internet.. . and saw some very stunning christian-related pictures..

So thought of posting them here...

v.cool & nice right?

Christ is all, and is in all

"..... Christ is all, and is in all" - Col 3:11
I like this particular verse somehow.. short yet impactful..

Another verse that I find rather thought-provoking: "For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things"-Phil 3:18-19 Somehow, it casts a dark shadow upon me.. "their destiny is destruction' = it sounds so scary and real... and "their glory is their shame" = is such a life worth living for...? I feel I'm one of those people, even though I trusted in God and believed in His existence... There can be true, loyal & obedient Christians who put God's words into actions, yet there can also be Christians who hears the word but do nothing... Hopefully, and I sincerely pray that I don't fall into the latter..

A Thankful & Blessed Day

Heh. Today was a day filled with many unexpected surprises. Firstly, I was v.thankful that the client did not show any signs of being angry/pissed off when I approached her, but instead, I thought that I caught a smile on her face somehow.. (hmm, weird? maybe I'm hallucinating? Haha. No idea =/ )

Secondly, today I had lunch with the new batch of intakes for my unit! I was only informed today that they will be in office today as they had orientation on Mon & Tue.. I was so excited abt meeting them! Haha. 6 of them were from Msia & 1 from SG (SMU), and guess what... ALL of them are females!!! haha. So cool right?

Finally after work, yepp, it's time for our weekly unit cg gathering! Today the rain was unexpectedly huge.. But it did not dampen my spirit in going for cg! Just the thought of being around my sisters & brothers overpowered every other things on my mind..

The paragraph that we revised today is Matthew 7. Personally, many verses strike me such as Matthew 7:1-2, 7-8, 12 and 21-23. The most compelling verse is Matthew 7:21: "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven". In my opinion, this means that even though we might be Christians, we praise & worship God and go for weekly church services, but if our hearts is not with God, or we do things that is against God or do not heed the WOG (bible), we will not be allowed to enter heaven.. How much sadder can it get if this is really the case for Christians.. (though Christians and yet are refused entry into heaven by God..)

It's time to really think & decide what I'm going to do with my life.. But one thing I'm very sure of is that, right now God is very real in me, and I want to keep continuing my faith in Him...

God bless all :)

Brand New Day

Today I arrived at client's place early :) (a good start?)
Abit apprehensive of what will happen today, after yesterday's incident..
Pray for the best..

As usual, my Mp3 accompanied me throughout my way to work, without it I'll just feel so empty.. Haha. I <3 P&W song! It really makes me think through life, and ponder over issues :)

Well, hope today will be a smooth-sailing day.

God bless all sis & bro.

Bad Day at Work

Today's work wasn't that well.. made a blunder due to carelessness.. Hope everything will be fine & pray that I won't make any careless mistake in future..

And today I went to ACTS bookstore in China Square. Somehow I just walked there without knowing it... And I saw this really nice name plaque... Only now then I know what my name stands for.. wasn't really what I expected.. but it sounds nice... I immediately bought it cos there's only one..















PS: Thank God for my Mp3.. I really don't know how I will survive each day without my Mp3..

Word of God speaks

Today, I'm on the passage on 2 Corinthians.. Immediately, I was deeply engrossed in the reading... It started off with "The God of All Comfort" - 2 Corinthians 3-10. How true can this be.. Recently been trying to catch up with some of the sisters from nyc, and to understand more abt their life, studies etc.. Quite a number of them voice out they are experiencing difficulties with their sch work, and I felt 2 Corinthians is just like.. ' a god-sent'.. Indeed, God is our Comfort.. The Bible mentioned "Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us". I totally believe & am v.certain that God will lift us up just when we feel we can't handle & hang on anymore to the stress & problems that are never-ending.. Let's just pray and seek for Him more, and He'll answer in a matter of time. Have absolute faith in Him!


Treasures in Jars of Clay

2 Corin 4:7-12: "But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed , but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body..."

2 Corin 4:16-18: "Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentarily troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is unseen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal"

Be it in studies, at work or doing anything, let's take time to ponder & cherish every single min spent on Earth... Stress, tiredness, depression, sickness etc never fails to strike anyone of us.. Living life with God is the best thing that can ever happen.. Don't feel alone for you are not, like what MM told me a few days ago "You might be lonely, but you will never be alone".. For there's always sisters & brothers, and God (Amen!) who will always be there for you... Have faith in God! Let's walk together with God, forever and ever...

Remember, don't lose hope & faith in God, and in everything that you do.. Everything you do is significant, be it how small or tiny it might appear to be..


God bless all :)

Distractions (grrr)

Distractions. It's the main issue why I'm so not diligent in reading the Bible. I'm just so easily distracted by other things around me... Even if the other things relatively seem unimportant.. I'll still insist on completing them before I open up the Bible and read.. (just for the sake of a peace of mind that I've completed what I need to do before I count it as the end of a day.. ) This wrong attitude has to, and must change...

*MIA* yep, to read :)
