Nana

2008-07-10T18:28:00.003+09:30

I like the times I spent with Nana..
I like his encouraging words, disciplined life..
I like the songs we share..
I like how supportive he is of the things I do..
I like the way he guides me and prays for me..
I like his positive mindset..
I like it that everytime we talk, I learn something new about life and about us..
I like him being non-judgemental of me..
I like the way he cracks the little jokes, makes himself silly but make me happy..
I like the trust within us..
I like his company..
I like his healthy lifestyle..
I like his real personality, no hidden nature..
I like the way he is able to come out with a solution for me when my mind is clouded..
I like the way he points me to God and tells me to trust God..
I like the way he affirms me when I feel uncertain of myself..

The feeling is so much different when I spent time with others..
Increasingly I realised some gatherings r fruitless and I do wan to move on from that. I dun wan any unwholesome and empty time spent anymore..
Its so not my nature..

I rather have more personal time for myself or spend time on a one to one basis..
Time by myself allows God to speak with me n develop my character.. Thats wat I need and wat I wan..

I absolutely detest time wasters!

My Dearest.. I do love you :)

2008-06-16T02:48:00.003+09:30

For nana n family..

I m going into a period of intense serious work for this few weeks.
There are things which no matter how much I wan to do.
I just can't do it now.
There are ppl whom I wan to spend time with.
I just can't do it now.
If you truely love me, you will understand this is the decision I have made.

Pray for me whenever you can and commit me to the Lord...
That's what I want..

Jesus take the wheel,
Take it from my hands,
Cos I can't do it on my own,
I'm letting it go,
Give me one more chance,
Save me from this road I'm on.

Dreams..

2008-06-06T13:21:00.003+09:30

My dreams will not just remain in my head, they will be put into action..
Letting noone stop me..
Letting noone steal it..

Just wait, I say I will do it..
I will do it with all my heart..

No hinderance..
No half heartedness..

I will fight fight fight to fulfill my dreams..

It will be a tough fight..
But it shall have a good beginning..
And a desirable end..

Let the countdown begin :)

Thanksgiving!

2008-05-30T09:18:00.002+09:30

There is so much I can thank God for, so much that such that words are not able to express how my heart feels :)

A tough week has gone by though there will be another 4 tough weeks ahead of me..
There is no fear in my heart because You are always around..
Your love and peace have always saturated my heart and soul..
I can't feel the stress overcoming me anymore..
There are no more fires engulfing me or waves overcoming me..
My cries have always been smoothened by help and love You provided for me..
You have always held my hand whenever I am falling..
You have always reminded me that You love me even before I was born..
You have given me people whom I can trust and confide in..
You have given me family both here in adelaide and singapore..
Your hands are forever stretched out to me..

I will fight for You..
I will fight for the dreams which You have rooted in my heart..
I will bathe myself in Your Word both day and night..
I will do my best in everything and anything in my life because I Love YOU..

I just want to say that You are my God, my darling, my love..
Forever irreplaceable..

I am so glad that though life has been busy for me..
My ears have not become deaf to Your promptings..
My heart and soul has not forgotten You..
You have not stopped calling me..
However insignificant I am, You have made me important and precious in Your sight..

Psalm 9:10

" Those who know Your name will trust in You,
For You, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek You."

The week of horror!

2008-05-29T09:58:00.003+09:30

It has been the worse week ever. I am battery low, lacking of rest, sick of being sick and at the same time covered by a huge mountain of work..Sorry that you guys were worried abt me but I know you guys genuinely cared :)

I m trying to take tmr off but pretty much unlikely.. Lets hope tmr's symposium discussion is real short.. Oh well! I should just stop dreaming..

30 more days and I can have my rest.. I so want to fly to Gold Coast now.. Yes! NOW!

Time out!

2008-05-21T09:44:00.000+09:30

I have approximately 40 days left to cover so much material.

God, will you make me smarter, more disciplined, work faster, healthier and wiser? Please Please Please :)

Pardon me!

2008-05-20T09:34:00.000+09:30

The last few days my temper gets triggered off much more easily than usual..
Maybe its because of my fever and sore throat that is irritating me so much..
Maybe its because of a heavy workload..
Maybe its because of insufficient rest..

I just need sometime for myself..
I need some space..
I explain only to people whom I choose to share..

I prefer no expectations to be placed on me..
Expectations = Disappointment

Let me have my way for 2 months.. Let me get this work done first.. Perhaps things will get better in July..

I need a big warm teddy bear hug! Lotsa homecooked food! Heaps of love and care expressions!

Avian Influenza

2008-05-10T10:45:00.002+09:30

I am a step closer to my dream. A step closer to what I want to do in my career. I will make full use of this opportunity. I know I will and God will help me achieve the desires of my heart :)

Going around Jericho

2008-05-08T20:26:00.002+09:30

Sometimes the problems which I face in life can look as big as Jericho. The walls may look formidable, defying the prayers and petitions of many. Occasionally in my waking moments, I find myself going around and around my dilemma. It's easy to be so dorminated by the challenge you face that you just keep going -- around and around obsessed with it.

Joshua had company of the whole army going around Jericho. It's good to march with others. There's strength in the fellowship of believers who have the same focus and goals and who lend comfort and encouragement to each other.

I am happy and blessed to have close friends fighting alongside with me, supporting and encouraging me every step of my way. Thank you so much!

The walls will crumble one day, and it will all be over. God will get the glory, and the hard marches in the heat of the day will be forgotten in the sweet taste of victory. Until that great day when our particular Jericho falls. God grant us the perseverance and the endurance believing that however high the walls, fortified that gates and strong the enemy, it's only a matter of time!

Joshua 6

Praise You by Jade Ambroze

Well I know You're gonna save me from this situation
But if not I will praise You anyway
I will lift my hands and raise my voice in adoration
For You are God whatever I may face

And I will thank you for the sunshine that I long for in my life
Then gladly I will praise You as it rains
For You are the God of grace
You are the God of my salvation
And that is one thing that will never change

Your ways are higher, wiser, deeper than my own
You are the promise keeper and You'll not leave me alone
So let me be like Daniel in the lion's den
And let me be like Job and not his friends

Because You loved me before the dawn of time
And always I am Yours and You are mine
So let me be like Stephen praising Your name
And let me be like Abel and not Cain

For though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil
For You are with me
You rod and staff they comfort me still

Well I know You're gonna save me from this situation
But if not I will love You and rejoice
And no matter what the season, trial or tribulation
I will honour You with heart and mind and voice

You are the Alpha, Omega, Beginning and the End
You are my Hope, my Comforter and Friend
So let me be like Peter laying down his life
And let me be like Lot and not his wife

Nothing's gonna take Your love away...

Dishearted..

2008-05-08T18:26:00.002+09:30

I just read something that totally make me dishearted. I cannot imagine myself being misunderstood in such a way. If our friendship is so fragile, I honestly duno what I should say or do. The years of effort is so disregarded.. Its just heart breaking..

I am totally disappointed and hurt to some extend.. I am tired, totally tired.. Maybe all the years of effort is simply wasted..I am trying to juggle so many things at any one go.. I am so exhausted and I need God so badly myself.. I seriously cant take anymore emo behaviour.. Its stressing me out when I am already so stressed out over my own work..

I just pray that one day you will understand why I was so strict with you...

There is a chinese saying: you scold only the person you love and care about... I will tell the truth to someone only when I love them..

Bioinformatics!

2008-05-07T19:37:00.002+09:30
Lord, You see my silent tears, You see my broken heart and I know You are always there for me..

Lord, let me never crumble under any situation but always trust, always hope and always live for You alone..

No matter what happens, I know You will comfort me.. I just wanna hide under your wings and hear Your soft still voice calling me..

Are we simple or complicated creatures?

2008-05-03T09:20:00.003+09:30
Why are we humans so selective about the people whom we wan to get close to?
Why are we humans so comfortable in our own clicks that we sometimes make people feel uncomfortable?

I dun like this feeling. I love my family in adelaide and I wan to share everything I have with them. I long and love to spend quality time with them. They have become an important part of me.

I am such a complicated creature. I self claim to be simple but yet I know I am not. I dun accept anyone into our family easily like I used to. Somehow the doors are just subconsciously shut.

Lord, help me to love those though they are not in the family. Help me love them as You love us. The barrier can only be removed by You, God.

I am waiting, Lord. Waiting only for You, Lord..

Unfailing Love By Chris Tomlin

You have my heart
And I am yours forever
You are my strength
God of grace and power

And everything
You hold in Your hand
Still You make time for me
I can't understand

Praise You, God of earth and sky
How beautiful is Your unfailing love
Unfailing love
And You never change, God, You remain
The Holy One and my unfailing love
Unfailing love

You are my rock
The One I hold on to
You are my song
And I sing for You

And everything
You hold in Your hand
Still You make time for me
I can't understand

Praise You, God of earth and sky
How beautiful is Your unfailing love
Unfailing love
And You never change, God, You remain
The Holy One and my unfailing love
Unfailing love

And everything (everything)
You hold in Your hand
And still You make time for me
I can't understand (can't understand still)

Praise You, God of earth and sky
How beautiful is Your unfailing love
Unfailing love
And You never change, God, You remain
The Holy one and my unfailing love
Unfailing love
(I will praise You)

I love this song, awesome lyrics!

My Melbourne Trip -- Part 2

I was meant to finish blogging about my melbourne trip earlier this week but I never got down to it. Busy la and no inspirations. Not that I have inspirations now anyway.LOL!

I visited the Arts Centre Sunday Market after church on Sunday when I was over that weekend. Its awesome to see aussies actually passionate about art and the stalls were set up every sunday for them to showcase their precious possessions. They have like ceramics, aussie timber work, jewellery, photography and heaps more. It is sort of a tourism spot at St Kilda very close to the beach area so it was sort of very nice to admire those art pieces along with the cool breeze of the sea. The weather was simply beautiful except that it was a little chilly. I bought a nice little silver plated bangle with sky blue coloured crystals and stones at the middle. It was a sweet little thing at a really cheap price.

I like melbourne city, not in a way that I think I can live there but rather I guess I would like to visit again for shopping (The brands I love are all there.. aww), food (They have so many Japanese restaurants there which I love and also Krispy Kremes) and for the beaches. Melbourne city is kind of shopping paradise. I love the direct factory outlet (DFO) near Southern Cross Station. That was a HEAVENLY place for me! I got my red sandals from Country Road for half the retail price and my Espirit skirt at a 70% discount. Awesome bargins that make me want to go back for more! Thank God I didnt buy much stuff after that otherwise I would have trouble trying to force them into my tiny luggage bag to return to adelaide.

During my stay in melbourne, I spent alot of time with God as well. Reading and meditating upon his word. My heart was in adelaide with Ecamp but I was in melbourne having my little holiday in my own dreamland. I adore the lady whom I met through Shirley. This lady, Allison, few years older than me but she has a great relationship with God, passionate about adopted childen, has 2 adopted gals under care. I see a great sense of passion in her, an undying spirit to care and to support lost and helpless gals. Its the kind of passion I wan to be instilled in me but I am still searching for it. I guess its a calling from God. The selflessness I see in her is very admirable. She could speak with me about things that are deep in her heart though I was staying with her for 3 days, such discussion sometimes couldnt even be found among close friends but we found it in each other. She is a young woman whom I can look up to as a sister in Christ and a role model in life. Its these people I meet on my trip that makes the whole trip even more worthwhile.

I kinda miss the trip now..Oh well..

Day-Book

I submitted my daybook today. I can say that I am heaps relieved after that. Imagine myself doing my daybook from day to day, Monday till today was something which was unimaginable. It was day after day of shit pain. Yes, you heard me rite, it was unbearable, horrifying pain to the depths of my bones. I know I didnt do a fantastic job in the end but I already did my best already. Its the effort which was put in that really matters to me. I did almost nothing except work and more work, chocolate and more chocolate, complains and more complains the last few days. Sorry to all those who had to put up with my nonsense and heaps of love and hugs to all who accompanied me and gave me help along the way. You guys rock!

Now that my daybook crap is over. I can sort of rest for the night. I feel lost, honestly lost cos there was like suddenly nothing to do. Yeah, but its only for tonight.

Tmr, I can start choosing the song which I am gonna sing during worship audition on sunday at church. I am excited about it yet feeling tensed and nervous about it. Its my first time going for an audition. We had like no audition when we wanted to do worship leading in OCF so like singing in church is expecting heaps more. The last few days, in the midst of doing daybook, my heart was consistently on doing worship ministry in church. Its my passion, singing to God. Initially, I wanted to turn down the opportunity cos of all my other committment but somehow there was a voice within me was persuading me to make the move and call Deb to register for the audition. I wan to serve God with the voice which he has blessed me with. I just wan to do more for Him alone. I guess its something natural which we all want to do for our loved ones especially when we love them so much. Just wan to use what God has bless me with to bless his church. I wan to do it and I will do it.

Audition, this sunday at church 2pm. I am going to cancel all my prior plans for marion trip, beach trip. Sorry guys, I wan to focus my sunday on his ministry. The chance must not slip!

Psalm 96:8-10

8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
bring an offering and come into his courts.

9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth.

10 Say among the nations, "The LORD reigns."
The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.

My experiences of the past 1 week -- (Part 1)

Before my melbourne trip, I actually went n browse through all my previous blog entries. I was searching for the words and messages which God has placed in my heart. For a while in the beginning of the year, I sort of lost my momentum with God, a scenario common to many but few admit its occurance. It was only during the recent combined meet that I found God again and our relationship has been better than before. It is an encounter with God that turned things around for you and me. Reading through the past blog entries not just showed me the path where God has been leading me on but also how people have invested into my life and viceversa.

My melbourne trip, in short I would say its fruitful and its a God-driven trip. A trip and a journey with God that I longed for with all my heart but yet at the back of my mind, I also wished I could go to Ecamp. So many people approached me to ask if I am going to Ecamp. Each time it occurs, there was an instant pain in my heart but I kept quiet about it. I knew God has his purpose for me in melbourne, I knew that it isnt about the shopping or abt the city. There was something more to that and I was waiting in anticipation to find out more.

There were some people whom I met in melbourne who spoke into my life. Sat night I visited Richmond AOG, a huge church with many people passionate about God that really stirred my heart. I met a middle age lady at the new friends dinner. She is a lady who gave me a feeling that she has a deep sense of loneliness n pain in her life. Her eyes were sorrowful and sad, though we just met, she simply shared freely with me. I saw her emptyness n I felt the urge to reach out to her. I am so blessed to be surrounded with OCFERS and friends whom I can share my heart n my thoughts with and here before me was this lady, praying and seeking God to give her a good galfriend. For a moment, I realised how much I have taken wat God had given me for granted. Friends and housemates r not meant to be taken for granted. Each and every person that passes our path is worth the effort to get to know and to reach out.

Lord, I pray that You remove such selfishness and self-centreness in my being and help me to lead the life u desire for me to have..

Psalm 139: 3-5

You chart the path ahead of me and tell me where to stop n rest. Every moment, you know where I am. You know what I am going to say even before I say it Lord. You both precede and follow me You place a hand of blessing on my head.

Terrible Friday..

I just submitted my essay..Eww.. It was full of crap.. I sort of didnt understand what I was writing so I read over n over again and again.. Finally it did make some sense I hope.. I hate essays especially I dun enjoy the topic to start with.. Its my second essay this week n its clogging all my active nerve cells.. Zone out for a while to compensate for brain damage..

I m simply exhausted n burnt out.. Strength down to almost zero.. I can forget about going to Jackie's party tonight.. I dun even have strength to move much less to party..

Tmr I will be off to melbourne.. I guess I will come back pretty tired again.. Ooo.. But I will enjoy the trip..

lalallaala..

*I think I shouldnt bring my furry bear along*

Opps! I almost forgot I havent packed my luggage! LOL! So BLUR!

2008-04-08T19:58:00.003+09:30

A New Start?

It took me awhile to decide if I should go back to blogging. Pretty much I guess I should, I still do want to keep the moments that were once precious to me documented before they r forgotten or treated as waste by my limited capacity brain.

The documentation part is probably an occupation hazard. Haha! Sometimes I really wonder why would I record such nitty gritty details in my lab-book. I do enjoy when I get some desired results but not as much when I dun. :(

Life pretty much has started to get more interesting. A moment ago, a thought suddenly found itself in me. Time management! Just had the feeling that my time management skill simply sucks! Why m I taking so long to do something though hard the task maybe but still, I could have done it at a shorter time. I guess its a point where I just need to pause my life and look again at the "Time Wasters" but I need to get pass this week first.

Once Friday is over, Sat to Thursday, I will be down in Melbourne while the rest of the peeps would be at Ecamp!

My long awaited Melbourne trip is finally gonna happen! This thought alone motivates me to get all work done asap!!!!

Alright till then..

Note: I would be buying some Krispy Creams back.. BUT its not for everyone.. I will become broke if I do that..Sorry.. Hope u guys understand..

Hugz..

2007-09-21T09:11:00.000+09:30

2007-08-31T00:01:00.000+09:30
Recently, I have been worrying about things big and small (Uni and stuff back home)..Its the kind of insecurity and undue worry that came out of nowhere.. Its the feeling of Satan gripping hold of me which I am struggling to break away from.. For God did not give me a spirit of fear but a spirit of courage.. I dunoo when it all started when my mind starts to run wild and sometimes the negative thoughts would just cloud my mind and hinder my relationship with God..

I am getting better now.. I dun worry as much as the last few weeks now.. I remember God saying to me one day about praying for my loved ones and to trust Him to take care of them for me because it is simply out of the palm of my hand. My loved ones are held in the hand of my MIGHTY GOD.. My MIGHTY GOD where all my trust lies.. The fear will be removed by God slowly but surely.. I have very much recovered so there is no need for undue worry..

My Princess.. Trust me with those you love..

I know your heart, and I know how much you love those close to you. I am your Creator and the Giver of every good gift. I have given you loved ones to share your life with. But you, My child, must remember that those you love ultimately belong to Me -- not to you. I didnt give you those special relationships to tear you apart or to control you through fear of the future. Like Abraham did with his only son, Isaac, I need you to open your heart and give back to Me those you love. Trust Me with everything that concerns you regarding them. Place your hand in Mine, and I promise I will walk with you -- and your loved ones -- through all things this life brings.

Love,
Your Trustworthy King

"Those who trust in the Lord are secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever."

Psalm 125:1

2007-08-20T11:09:00.000+09:30
Thought for the Week:

If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
He sends you flowers every spring.
He sends you a sunrise every morning Face it, friend - He is crazy about you!
God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow,sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

You are an Analyst

Your attention to detail, confidence, sense of order, and focus on functionality combine to make you an ANALYST.

You are very curious about how things work, delving into the mechanics behind things.

Along those lines, how well something works is usually more important to you than what it looks like.

You find beauty and wonder mainly in concrete, functional, earthly things.

You are very aware of your own abilities, and you believe that you will find the best way of doing things.

Accordingly, problems do not intimidate you, as you believe in yourself.

You trust yourself to find solutions within the boundaries of your knowledge.

You don't spend a lot of time imagining how things could be different—you're well-grounded in the here-and-now.

It is important for you to follow a routine, and you prefer the familiar to the unknown.

Generally, you believe that you control your life, and that external forces only play a limited role in determining what happens to you.

If you want to be different:

Try to embrace the imaginative, creative part of your personality more often.

Try moving beyond the things that you find comfortable—open yourself up to a broader range of experiences.

You are Animated

You are outgoing, comfortable with others, and up for anything, which makes you ANIMATED.

Some people find crowds and parties exhausting, but not you! You are able to be yourself in many situations.

Sometimes it is hard for you to understand why others feel the way they do, but that doesn't stop you from trusting them or having faith that they are good people.

You know the world is complicated and that there is often more than one side to a story, so you are careful not to make judgments about others too hastily.

You would rather experience the world than sit back and observe it—you are not one to sit on the sidelines.

You are an independent thinker and don't get too worried about how others might perceive you—you are not self-conscious about being the active, engaged person that you are.

Although you have a keen understanding of different people's life circumstances, you occasionally have trouble seeing why people get so upset and emotional about things—they should just lighten up and have fun!

In addition to having faith in the world, you have faith in the people around you—you trust others to do the right thing and to be honest.

If you want to be different:

Remember that time alone can be just as fulfilling as time spent with others—take some time for yourself and you might find that there are many things in your inner world that are just as compelling as the world outside your window.

Your open-mindedness about the ways of world gives you an understanding of people's differences, but that knowledge doesn't always translate into sympathy. Don't be afraid to let your trust and understanding influence your feelings.

IT'S YOU

I don't know what I'm doing with my life
I don't understand what I'm going through right now
The lonely nights of putting up in my room
Maybe something is really missing in my life

In a crowded place yet somehow I feel all alone
Everybody's talking but I just drown out the sound
It doesn't help as the heavens rain down on me
I guess there really is a gaping hole in my heart

I don't know how to say it
And I don't know how to phrase it
But I know as much is true, that it's you

It's you, the ever elusive prize
And it's you, who holds the keys to my heart
It's you, who holds the stars up in the sky
And it's you, there's no denying, that it's you
It's you

The nights are long as I struggle without you
Can't wait till the next time that I see you again
Nothing matters when you're not around me
Maybe baby, you're the one who makes me whole

I don't know how to say it
And I don't know how to phrase it
But I know as much is true, that it's you

It's you, the ever elusive prize
And it's you, who holds the keys to my heart
It's you, who holds the stars up in the sky
And it's you, there's no denying, that it's you
It's you

I don't know how to say it
I don't know how to phrase it
But I know as much is true, that it's you

There is some frustration over at MLS. Dun Step on our toes please..

2007-07-30T22:13:00.000+09:30
You know wat, I just popped by Kiki's blog. I was looking at her last blog entry n honestly I have to agree with wat she says because I also feel the same way.

These days our printer at MLS is either not working or the queue line to print our stuff is ridiculously long because of people who are not from our faculty abusing our facilities. I dun deny that some of them r my good friends but that does not mean I condone wat they r doing...

Honestly I tried some ways to tell them. Example, there is a huge sign at the door which says only for SCIENCE students but I dun understand why they do not get it. And not just that they can turn around n argue with us which is freaking annoying.

I remember last friday. Someone accidentally stepped on my toes so obviously I would have some natural reaction so I said OUCH. To my horror, this person turned around n told me that I shouldnt have screamed. It was PLAINLY RIDICULOUS! Sorry, I cant respect you anymore. The least u could do is to apologise. Basic courtesy! I am kind enough not to mention ur name in my blog...

Enough of complains.. Back to work..

2007-07-30T09:47:00.000+09:30

2007-07-30T09:44:00.000+09:30
There is always something wrong with the printer at MLS. It is so annoying...

Everyday either the paper jam or it just stops printing for no apparent reason..

Its time to purchase a new printer..

GOD WILL MAKE A WAY

** God will make a way
Where there seems to be no way
He works in ways we cannot see
He will make a way for me
He will be my guide
Hold me closely to His side
With love and strength for each new day

He will make a way
He will make a way

By the roadway in the wilderness He’ll lead me
Rivers in the desert will I see
Heaven and earth will fade
But His Word will still remain
He will do something new today

BE MAGNIFIED

I have made You too small in my eyes
O Lord, forgive me
And I have believed in a lie
That You were unable to help me

PRE - CHORUS

But now, O Lord, I see my wrong
Heal my heart and show Yourself strong
And in my eyes and with my song
O Lord, be magnified, O Lord, be magnified

** Be magnified, O Lord
You are highly exalted
And there is nothing You can't do
O Lord, my eyes are on You
Be magnified, O Lord, be magnified

I have leaned on the wisdom of men
O Lord, forgive me
And I have responded to them
Instead of Your light and Your mercy

Miracle after miracle My GoD performed..
Again, you have increased my faith in you..
Again, you heard my deepest cries..
Again, you made yourself real to me..
Again, you have made the impossible possible..

What can be too difficult for you..
Again, you said..
Nothing is too difficult..
Nothing too wide..
Nothing too far..
Your love for me is ever deep..

Its always me who limit what I think you can do for me..
I was foolish..
I never will be again..

My God is an awesome God..
He set me free..
He gave me what I ever dreamt for..

Many things.. my new place is just one of them..
My new house is an annointed house..
A house of peace, love n Godly women after God's own heart..

How you have provided for me,
I will never forget..
May I never depart from your ways..
Never..

Jeremiah 1:12

The LORD said to me, "You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled."

I have been spending a lot of time praying and doing my devotion. Some of you guys know I have a midnight appointment with God every night and I am enjoying every moment of it. My mind has been increasingly saturated with the Word of God and I am really excited and loving every moment of it. My spirit has become more sensitive and God has shown me many things.

Many things I ask for with all my heart,
Many people he reminds me to pray for,
Many areas of my life he disciplines (Been asking him to discipline me in my studies and I am truely glad he did *big smile*, revision has been going stable n well.)

He has taught me how to look at the world through his eyes.
He has taught me how to love as he loves.
He has taught me how to be a blessing to the people around me.
He has taught me how to put my reliance n trust in Him

Time and again when I go wrong, he never fails to correct me lovingly...

I am still in the process of learning day by day..

I m going off to church soon...
Its Nemo's farewell today.. God bless him as he leaves adelaide..
I m seeing Genieve for short session of discipleship as well.. May God take his leading..

Have a good n awesome day guys!

Love u all loads..

This semester has been a tough yet spirit guided semester for me.

I have learnt alot. People have told me I have grown alot and changed alot as well, especially the leaders around me. It is by no means of my own, Its only God who can make the change in me and I give HIM all the honour and glory. For such is the work of the Holy Spirit and not of human nature. An undeserving creature I am, precious in His sight and bought by the blood of the lamb, bought at an indescribable price which I can never pay on my own.

3 Breakthroughs I had this year so far and many more by faith I believe are coming.

1. Breakthrough in my bible study group.

I could see alot of growth in them after all the effort, unceasing prayers and fasting. I have seen them grow so much in knowledge, unity and love for one another. For myself, increasing reliance on God for his guidance in leading my group and the faith that he will use me as his servant to guide his lambs and feed them. By no means, I could ever achieve them on my own. Not of my own, but of His strength I draw on. What can I offer, I give what I have been given.

2. Breakthrough in my results.

It has been a while since I last had a breakthrough in my results. My knowledge is insufficient but God has never failed to provide for me. I find myself struggling lesser and lesser each day. I have not grown more intelligent. I only have known how to claim the victory I have in Christ alone and draw on the power that he has already given me. My life is not mine, but His. Be amazed by not my works but of His works. My saviour is the only one who is holding me.

3. Breakthrough in worship leading.

Yesterday was the first worship session I led this year. After the session, there were quite some senior leaders inclusive of the speaker who came to me and said that the worship is good. Again, I know it was God leading the session because throughout the session, I did not do anything I had planned, apart from the songs we sang. All the other words I said were from God given to me at that moment. Give God all your praises! He is the worship leader. He has taught me how to lead worship in a way that is pleasing in his sight, a sweet sound to his ears. My praises go only to Him!
Thank you for all leaders who have encouraged me. Again, I emphasis, my life is not about me, I live only to bring glory to His Name! Give God all your praises!

Dear all,

I just wan to share something that happened to me today! Today one of my project marks was released. It was a project which I spent a lot of effort, sweat and tears on. And I praise God for his faithfulness to me and by his strength, I was able to pass from hurdle to hurdle. Any today, when I saw my marks for that project, my eyes saw a distinction beside my admin number and gosh, u guys cannot imagine the joy in my heart, its indescribable, my praises goes only to God and I thanked him with all my heart. To be honest, after I handed up my project especially the essay ( remember the essay I was doing before and after connect group on the day we celebrated Pastor Matt's bday at Deb's house), I realised that I made a huge error. And for a spilt second, my heart was wrenched and fearful but God reminded me of his presence in my life and how he is a miracle working God. So, what I did was I prayed, day after day the same prayer lifted to God. Day after day, week after week, I waited for my results. Slowly the fear that was once in me was removed by God. I believe that he would let me pass. I believe that he would listen to my prayers and from heaven he could hear my cry. Indeed, he has heard me, he gave me much more than I asked for. So much more, my heart is overwhelmed with joy. I know it would never have been possible without Him.

I just want to thank all of you who have been praying for me. I would also like to encourage everyone to put your utmost trust in our awesome God.

In this exam period, though stressful we may be, lift all our burdens to God and just do our best!

I hope you guys are encouraged by what God is doing in my life. Its not abt me, its only abt Him. All Glory to God!

Philippians 4:6-7

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

In His Love,
Prissy

Current Reading:

Effective prayer by J Oswald Sanders &
A Hunger for God, desiring God through Prayer and Fasting by John Piper

‘Satan dreads nothing but prayer,’ wrote Samuel Chadwick. “His one concern is to keep the saints from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.”

Many a stubborn city has opened, many an intransigent heart has yielded, many a financial need has been supplied and many a delicate personal difficulty has been resolved by this means.

Unbelief has always shackled omnipotence. Faith releases its might. And faith is not credulity, it is confidence. It rests its weight on the divine warrant of the infallible Word. It joyously believes that to the God who ‘calls into existence the things that do not exist,’ nothing is impossible.

Oswald Sanders

I have had a busy week. I set aside time with God everyday but it wasn’t as much time as I wanted to have with him. Honestly, I did my best. Each and everyday, I begin with prayers uplifted to God and prayers throughout the day. I seek him to intervene with the plans I had made for the day. I wanted to walk in the direction where His hand is leading because that’s the way I should walk in. I knew I would break if I run on strength of my own. I acknowledge that I needed strength from on high. I had an overwhelming week with all my major assignments due. There were many days that I had to wake up before daybreak just to complete my work. This week though I had so much to do, I praise God because he has increased my strength, in my weakness, he reigns. Humbly before his throne, tears were in my eyes as I seek Him with all my heart. My reliance on Him increases by the day, by the hour, by the minute.

Last night when I was doing my quiet time before bed, though physically tired I am, God was speaking to me and I was straining my ears to catch everything he wanted to tell me. Indeed God knows what is bothering my heart. In the mist of my weakness, he never left me…

“Do not let anyone or anything steal that time away from you and Me, My Child. I know you love me. It is my word that lets you live life with supernatural wisdom. It is my word that defines who you are and how much I love you. I know there is much to see and do. Let me reveal Myself to you in a very real and intimate way. Any time you spend with Me will be multiplied by My mighty hand, so draw near to Me and I will draw near to you.

Love,
Your King and your Living Word

---

I was preparing the worship songs for next week’s worship session yesterday, God reminded me of his faithfulness and the strength which I can draw on him again.

2 Corinthians 12:9
But 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.

Indeed his grace is sufficient for me and his power is made perfect in my weakness.
When I am weak, he will show himself strong.

Footprints In The Sand

“Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you’d walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of footprints.
I do not understand why when I needed you most, you would leave me”

The Lord replied, ‘My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints in the sand, it was then that I carried you.’

Proverbs 2:6-8

“For the LORD gives wisdom,
and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
He holds victory in store for the upright,
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.”

Maybe my last post for this semester before I bury my head into my books..

I have been busy.. Yes, busy is the only word to describe. Kinda having limited sleep these days n that means 4-5 hrs max per day.. Next week is my busiest week for assignments then I will be starting exam revision. To be honest, there are LOADS, YES LOADS to cover.. I will just try my best..

I have been happy n jolly.. I have learnt how to EMBRACE all my uni stuff.. Yes! EMBRACE is the word.. u just do them with joy and love them in ur heart! Yeah! It makes everything more bearable.. Rather than being grumby over it and make things look all the more worse and then all the self-pity comes in..

I gave myself a new haircut after I submitted my essay into the digital dropbox on Monday.. Looks pretty nice.. layered my hair myself.. Cant believe it rite.. haha.. when it gets stressful.. I gotta do something new n refreshing.. sounds very scary but nevermind.. I m cool about it..

Anyway I still have 4 major assignments due next week. Please pray for me.. yeah! With God everything is possible!!!

Thank You For Loving Me

Verse 1:

What love the Father has lavished on us
That we should be called His sons and daughters
Precious in His sight
Greater love this world had never seen
When He hung on that tree
O why would He do such a thing
For dirty sinners like you and me?

Chorus:

O God thank You for loving me
When on the cross You made history
Lord You died for me
Forever my praise will go to Thee
O God thank You for choosing me
To be Your child and bear Your name
O Jesus I will never cease to sing Your praise

Verse 2:
Your love is patient and humble and kind
It's greater than all my sin
It always protects and trusts and hopes
And will have no end
It's Your love that lifted me up from the depths
Set my feet on a solid rock
With a firm place to stand
Lord I always will trust in Your loving hand

Bridge:

How wide how long
How high how deep
How endless is Your love for me
How wide how long
How high how deep
How endless is Your love for me

Ending:

Thank You for loving me
Thank You for loving me
Thank You for loving me
Thank You for loving me
Thank You for loving me
Thank You for loving me

For My Heavenly Daddy,

Till the end of time forever, You are the only one I need. In my life, you are all that matters. You are all the truth I see. When my dreams are shattered, you are the only one I need. When I found you, I was blessed and I will never leave you. I need you. I can’t imagine my life without You, I will be lost and so confused. Lord, you know its just impossible. Because of you, its all brand now. My life is now worthwhile. I can’t imagine me without you. I won’t last a day without you who see me through.
When I cried, You heard my calling and you rushed to set me free. I will never leave you and I need you. You are there to see me through.

For My Mum,

I am sorry to have caused you worry and pain this Mother’s Day. But I wan you to know that You are Special and I always thank God for you. I am on my way to recovery and I wan you to know that God has blessed me so much and I will continue to love and serve him. I hope you have received the card I sent you. Continue to look to God and remember each other in prayers.

I was accompanied to the doctor by a brother yesterday morning. The doctor diagnosed viral infection in my throat which will last for 10 days along with a medical certificate of 9 days with my assignment extended as well. My throat still hurts but I have already recovered a lot already and my fever has almost gone down.

I just wan to thank all who have been praying for me, all who have been cooking for me, all who took time to come over to visit me, all who accompanied me or who have made themselves available for me all through the night. Thank You so much! God sees your heart and will reward you for all you have done for me. I know many of you have done either one thing or another. I can see it. Thank you for all your love and concern.

Acts 20: 34-35

“You yourselves know that these hands of mine have supplied my own needs and the needs of my companions. In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' "

The past 2 weekends, I have been nursing fever and headaches. Believe it anot.. I havent taken a proper rest when I was sick cos I just simply had no time to. I just take my medicine and continue with my work. And now, I am down with a throat infection and headaches. This weekend is my busiest weekend and to be honest, I need to work extremely hard to survive my assignment which is due on the coming wednesday. It is a 20% + 20% assignment affecting 2 subjects directly. I still have tonnes of journals piling up on my desk waiting to be read. These days I survive with 4-5 hrs sleep, getting up very early to pray n do devotion followed by my assignments and ending my day late in the night with devotion and prayer. He is the only one whose hand I am holding on. The only one that holds my destiny and I place my eternal trust in.

I just finished my physio prac yesterday. Thank God, everything went smoothly. Now its time to analyse the results and write up my report. Micro results were released yesterday as well, I did well by God's grace.

Exam timetable was released yesterday as well. I have a really good one this time with 3 weeks swot weeks to the envy of many people. But that I know is the result of persistent prayers. I will be having exams from 23rd to 29th June. Pretty well spaced papers. Praise the Lord for that!

Matthew 21:21-22

Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and it will be done. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

My heart is full of thanksgiving to God especially now. He has brought me through both my quizes today n I can confidently say that God has indeed blessed me. God's peace flood my heart this morning n I felt no fear, truely no fear. Both papers went well n God provided the answers when I needed them. Of course I studied hard as well but there were still some stuff that I couldnt remember during the quiz but he recovered all the materials I have learnt n truely its entirely not out of myself but only God can do that...

The efforts paid off, the trust n faith paid off.. He has made me strong in Him... He has made me confident in Him..

Just wan to add a word of thanks especially to Yoshi n Danny.. Thanks for praying for me..Prayers move Mountains..

His wonders I can never comprehand, His grace never ceasing
All I have belongs only to Him..

Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.

Camp Song: Your Love

Verse 1:

Where can I go from Your spirit,
how can I escape Your love?
Your love for me is deeper than the sea
and higher than the heavens above.
Where can I flee from Your presence,
now that You abide in my heart?
My heart is Your home,
Your temple, Your throne,
so what could ever keep us apart?

Chorus:

Your love is higher than the heavens,
Your love is deeper than the ocean,
nothing in creation
could take me away from Your love;
Your love, there is nothing greater,
Your love, there is nothing stronger,
You came to me,
gave Your life so I could be free.
So I could be free.

Verse 2:

Who can explain Your mercy,
who can comprehend Your ways?
You showed me Your grace by taking my place
and washing all my sorrow away.
I just want to be in Your presence,
worship You with all of my heart;
Show me the way,
draw me closer each day,
don't let anything keep us apart.

God has more for you than your faith could ever imagine & more than your heart could ever hold
There'll be more to embrace & more to grow in, & more to enjoy from the river of His goodness in your life
His plan is for you to move from blessings to blessings
Like waters you can walk in, to waters you can swim in, to waters so abundant you won't be able to cross to the other side
Get ready for blessings from the Lord, they are coming you way! - Paragraph taken from a quote by Roy Lessin

2007-03-31T09:51:00.000+09:30
Last night was our first combined meet in OCF in 2007. It was an evangelistic night. I had a busy week n I struggled with time management and trying to meet the deadlines. But my Friday nights are always blocked for God n OCF as I have done for the past 2 years. The family is forever so warm n new people are always welcomed into our mist.

For the first time, I prayed with Linda yesterday. A young sister devoted to God which really encouraged n inspired me. Somehow I noticed something different about her. Her enthusiasm for God struck me.

I was with the ecamp comm. for the most of the evening helping out for the registration. The turnout is really great and everyone is already getting excited abt Easter Camp. My heart is expectant of ecamp.

Yesterday during the altar call that was after the sermon, when the last song was playing, God brought someone into my mind in regards to salvation. Someone that he asked of me to pray for in the past 1 yr. I promised God to persevere on in prayer and faith. Something specific which God asked of me which I will not disclose but its between me n God. The promise made last night to my Father shall be honoured.

It’s a night of remembrance. It’s a night of love. It’s a night of rejoicing for the souls which are saved.

All good things come from God….

---

This morning, just as I opened my eyes, the devil tried to take a foothold of me. Well, he attempted but I take pride in my Lord to announce that my Lord is my victorious armour. The devil did not even managed to touch a strand of hair on me.

Confidence Lies in my Lord.. Try as u might Mr Satan.. U will FOREVER be Under my FEET!

Deborah spoke about dots and stars the other day..

Dots represent our imperfections..
Stars represent what we r good at..

Dots vs Stars...

I have a friend who gives me dots all the time..
When I do well.. there r no stars..
But once I make a mistake, I get a handfull of dots..

Those dots u gave me r almost right all the time..
n I do make improvements from them..
But after that u will tell me that there r more dots here n there that I need to change..
N still no stars..

The Lord brought u to correct me in my ways..
N I recognise that because u have always been able to point out what is unseen to others..

But the Lord brought other people to give me stars..

Someday, if I get a star from you,
I will be very happy..
Because its rare..
So rare..
I never got a star from you before..

Its not the approval I wan..
Its the appreciation I need..

For you to see me as how the Lord sees me..

For those who have been praying for me, thank you so much. I have almost fully recovered now. God spoke to me today when I stepped into CRC. It was him who gave me the courage to face my problems head on. It was Him who gave me all the comfort and solace I so badly needed. It was Him who lifted me out of the pit once again. It was Him who forgave me of all my mistakes.

How many times have I broken your heart? Still you forgive...
How many times have you heard me pray? Draw near to me...

Everything I need is you from beginning till forever…

My Princess….

I Will Set You Free

I, your King, stand outside the door of your heart and knock. I see you locked up in your private place of pain, but I won’t force my way in. I will continue to wait patiently outside until you are ready to let me come in. I long to hold you in my arms, wipe away your tears, and tenderly encourage you with My love and truth. I will continue to knock even when you turn a deaf ear. I won’t stop calling to you from outside the door of your prison of pain. You do not have to answer, but I won’t give up because I love you. I know your heart’s cry is for the wholeness and healing that only I can bring. It’s not too late, my princess. Today you can unlock the door in the darkened room of your heart and let Me come in. Like warm light and a gentle breeze, I will refresh and nourish your soul.

Love,
Your King and Your Key to Freedom

Revelations 3:20
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me.”

Now I dun really have the time to blog but I still wan to blog. For those who do not know, I had recurring dreams from Friday till Sunday last week. I couldn’t sleep properly most of these 3 nights. I was spiritually attacked by Satan. The few nights satan planted negative thoughts in my head when I was asleep n I woke up in cold sweat most of the nights. I would suddenly open my eyes as early as 430am in the morning n I couldn’t think at all. For a moment I froze. I had several self doubts. I was depressed. I was afraid. I couldn’t focus when I was awake. I was paranoid over many things. The only thing I could focus on the last few days was when I was preparing for bible study and my devotion times and when I was praying. Those several hours were the best hours the past few days. That was when I shut myself out of this world n I listen only for the voice of God. Those hrs were the best. My heart longs for more time with God.

I confided in a few sisters about the matter and I know they prayed for me. Ivy and Mel came last night. I am so glad they came because I wanted to tell them what happened. Thank you for coming to pass me bible study material for this Friday as well as to pray with me. I really appreciate it.

I have never really had horrifying dreams that paralyse me before. Perhaps except one. There was once in 2nd semester last year. One of the mornings when I woke up, I could feel the devil sitting on me in my own room. Initially, I was so scared. I hide under my blanket. Can u imagine me hiding under my blanket? I was afraid to see satan face to face. But that was only for 5 mins then after that I thought to myself. Pris, why are u hiding? U should get up and pray. So I did. I got up n prayed in the name of Jesus n I cast the demon out of my room. I did it. I wasn’t overpowered by satan. I was empowered by God. I remembered him. I was shaken initially but that was only 5 mins. I knew I had to do something. I cannot remain in bed. I had to put up a fight with the devil. I had to claim God’s promises.

For those who are concerned, I felt very much better last night after much prayer n quiet time with God. I regained my confidence. I got everything intact again. I wouldn’t say I am perfectly ok now. But in comparison to the last few days, I am definitely stronger than before. I believe that spiritual attacks come when God is about to do something great in my life. It’s a huge threat to the devil. It’s the time of testing. Pris, r u ready for the challenge?

Next time if I am attacked by the devil again. I will stand up, put my feet to the ground and scold the devil. Yes, I will do that.

Thanks Ivy for ur prayers just now. My heart is warm with ur love.
Thanks Mel for cleansing my room in the name of Christ.
Thanks Yoshi. I love u.
Indeed its restored. Indeed it is cleansed in the blood of Jesus.

Where would I be without the cross?
Where would I be without your blood shed for me?

It finally coming to the end of this week soon n I have completed all my assignments for the week, just left with some reading materials to read.. then it will be all done.. Currently I am reading " The Confident Woman" by Joyce Meyer. Its a good book, will blog abt it when I am done reading..

I had a good week.. not too bad.. just had my physio prac today.. I had a cool group, all aussies except me, but they are all friendly n intelligent so discussion went along smoothly.. Thank God for that! Initially I was worried that I will get a crappy group cos if I really do then I will really be in big trouble cos the project is worth 30%... so I m glad it all turned out fine.. My physio tutor was excellent too, she gives very clear explainations which was pretty easy to follow. At least not another tute which was like sitting in a pressure cooker.. argh, I cant take that..

--

Yesterday's dinner was one of my best meals in adelaide. We went to this Vietnamese restaurant near Port Adelaide. It was pretty far but was alright cos we drove. It was Sean's birthday, so a group of us went out for dinner.. the food was so so so nice man... The appetiser was a seafood salad, gosh it was the best I have eaten. Then followed by Quail, and cold roll... I enjoyed cold roll the most cos it was interactive n fun.. then finally was our chocolate cheesecake.. Its one of the most satisfying dinners..

I miss fifi, nunu n yiyi... miss u guys loads.. when I saw u guys on tuesday, I felt more than happiness.. really..

yiyi, see u on sunday.. want to catch up with u soon.. hugz..

2007-03-06T12:15:00.000+10:30
I had my first tute yesterday, my biomed tute.. It was the most stressful tute I have ever been to.. it feels like sitting on a hotpot and steaming in a pressure cooker.. N I am serious... so stressful.. as usual we had tutes in pbl style.. for those who dunno.. pbl stands for problem based learning.. just some fancy word thats being used at uni.. but anyway.. let me tell u what on earth happened..

Start of the tute.. obviously the tutor took our attendance.. but this tutor was very interesting cos each of my tutes are accessed on a weekly basis so therefore he needs to grade us each week.. so if I dun find anything constructive to say obviously he is going to mark me down.. so the tutor drew on a blank piece of paper our seating arrangement blah blah blah...

Then the tute started... then this is how he went... So who want to start the discussion? ....... silence for 2 mins.. ..... then he started asking questions.. whenever anyone gave any answer.. he would ask .. erm.. so why is it this n not that? so the whole session was basically why this why that.. u answer this .. u explain that? Thank God I know what to say when he arrowed the question at me.. Gosh! I was relieved at the end of the session...

After that I had a chat with my seniors.. n she went.. oh he is famous for being difficult but his tutes r good.. this I agreed as well..

I have another tute on thursday and friday as well.. its cracking me up.. was trying to fix it yesterday.. my physio tute.. but seriously.. there are only figures and diagrams in my lecture notes.. n my text isnt that good either... I got to fix those case studies somehow... anyway I am not the only one in a fix..

Can u believe that I am listening to audio lectures at home though I went to uni for those lectures? Goodness me.. since when I become so hardworking..

I must fix them tonight..MUST!

2007-03-04T07:56:00.000+10:30
The whole week flew past so quick.. I was at Henley beach with OCFers yesterday.. it wasnt very sunny.. in fact it was windy n cooling at max temperature of 28 degrees but then some of us were sunburnt still... but it was fun though.. my sunburnt skin is gonna take a while to heal..... But I suppose it will be fine.. we had team games with water balloons and so on.. captain's ball... it was nice teamwork n at the same time we had loads of fun n gotten to know quite a lot of newcomers which was great! Lunch was pizza by the cooling sea.. one of the few times where we could actually relax and enjoy the sea breeze.. we also buried mossie in the sand.. which was a combined but interesting effort.. hehe... we took pictures.. waiting for samuel to get them uploaded.. imagine urself being buried in the sand.. been fed pizza n cordial actually isnt too bad right.. hehe... Anyway beach day was the highlight of the week.... Ooo.. I almost forgot I met baby Jian Kai for the first time yesterday at Aunty Merrilyn's place.. Eelaine n Raymond's baby boy.. he is sooo cute... tanned little boy.. slightly thin but he will put on weight soon.. We had meeting at Aunty Merrilyn's place as well though all of us are really super tired.. n Aunty Merrilyn had a packed schedule.. it was a good session.. alot of teaching materials n guidance. A well compacted session which is worth every minute of our time.. anyway yesterday was a fantastic day.. i got to go soon.. got to prepare for church till then...

2007-02-28T18:24:00.000+10:30
Its the middle of week 1 now.. the heat is up again.. unfortunately.. but nevermind.. the stress is always there..

The week has been short so far cos the pracs n tutes only start next week but then there is quite some readings to do already n tutes to prepare for.. but its ok still.. just need to manage my time wisely..

I realised my attention span has become quite short lately.. i dunno y.. or was it the same as before.. I could only have full concentration for 30 mins then after that need to have a short break to do other stuff before coming back to it again.. At the rate I am going.. when can I finish my work man???

I need to prepare for friday's bs.. till then.. I hope the newbies come back...

2007-02-25T23:12:00.000+10:30
I have been back in adelaide for almost a week now.. Landed in adelaide on tuesday, welcomed into super duper sunny adelaide.. oh well.. it has been freaking hot for the first few days then after that the temperature became more bearable.. currently hovering from 30 degrees to 35 degrees.. Its Hot! Its dry! Not all of u will understand what I m saying.. but nevermind.. But there is a phrase from Grace which I really like.. That is.." We steam in singapore n we bake here" .. Its so hot that we can fry an egg on our head.. hey .. no kidding!

I have settled very much everything now.. tmr uni is starting again.. its a brand new year.. a brand new semester.. a brand new start.. Gotta pray pray pray that everything goes well...

This semester is gonna be busy again.. its time to get everything running again.. from my uni work to my homecooked meals.. to laundry.. ocf.. church.. friends.. and everything else..

I have been helping at ocf booth since I came back.. great to know so many new friends and to be able to bring them into the knowledge of God..

The welcome night on friday was a huge success.. great turn out..
Its the first time I literally see crowds of people waiting for ocfers to pick them up from coles to head for ocf.. I was a little overwhelmed but very happy still.. Glad to see Nesta, David and Rachel serving as well.. everyone is doing their part for God..

Today we had our first meeting over at Ivy's place.. First time I prayed with Danny.. Its my honour n joy to be able to work with such a humble n knowledgeable leader this year.. Really looking forward to learning n moulding each other with the word of God...

Just want to share a verse which Danny shared with me today..

It speaks of Paul's Labor for the church...

Colossians 1:28

We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.

2007-02-18T13:12:00.000+10:30
I havent blogged in a while.. Not because I dun have anything to say or no updates for anyone.. but rather.. life has gotten too interesting.. what has the new year installed for me?

I am not sure.. what I can say is I have got to stay focused.. on God and on my studies.. N also my promise to God which I will discipline myself to fulfill that.. If u wan to know what God has asked of me, u can ask me.. very very few people know... I wan to share but only to the interested people..

Last year, I was full of ups n downs.. when I was up, I was really very happy.. but when I was down, I was down in the slumps.. I can just shut everyone out n only let God in.. But I praise God for those periods of dryness because through those times, God has made me tougher than before.. more reliant to him than before.. but more importantly.. though I shut humans out.. I still opened my heart to God..

Thats the greatest thanksgiving point back to God..

All in all, I can say that I have gained alot last yr.. relationships.. love.. friends.. trust.. maturity..
Thank God those periods of unhappiness were swiftly removed by u... U removed the pain n retained the joy...

The answer I received from God isnt No..

God is right about me. Now, that shouldnt be my focus.

I wan to build up my relationship with God. I know he can bring me to greater heights.

Over the years especially the last 2 yrs. I love n trust him with my life, with everything I have.

From a few days ago, I realised that God was saying that I have placed him second in my heart. Someone else took his position or rather there are 2 people in the first position.

I know what he wants. I know his desire.

I have restored God's position in my life. There is noone who can hold my love, noone except God.

He allowed me to meditate on this song.. the words was his message to me..

Lord, I give u my heart, all the days of my life, have ur way in me..

2007-02-04T01:05:00.000+10:30
There are alot of updates.. But I have a problem finding the starting point..

Done too much over the last 2 weeks..

I need to find a point of rest first..

Time really flies..

In 2 weeks time, I will be back in adelaide..

I want to treasure my time at home even more..

2007-02-03T02:32:00.000+10:30
I have been wanting to update my blog for many days now.. but I never did get down to anything..

3 days ago, I felt sick.. it started with sore throat on Tuesday.. then Tuesday night came the block nose.. I had problems breathing the whole night.. didnt sleep much.. Wednesday.. I was down with flu n sore throat.. like I told my close friends.. I am Fisherman's best friend.. I finished a total of 3 packets in 3 days.. I think I have never eaten that many in my entire life..
But frankly, I m not getting any better.. havent felt that sick in many years..

Now all other symptoms r coming.. Coping with recurring headache, fever, coughing badly too.. nose still blocked though I took medicine.. so stuffed up.. Its unpleasant.. especially after so many days n getting worse by the day.. its not funny anymore..

I just need some rest now..

Will update again when I get better..

Pray for me ok?

5 mins ago, I was reading an email sent by my OCF centre. My heart is stirred by the stories I have read. In my life, I have not just read or heard stories about missionaries and their work but I have witness with my own eyes of the hand of God blessing their work.

My trip to chiangmai I will never forget. The sacrificial love of our very own missionary, the vision bestowed to her by God, her passionate heart, her humble personality. Every little attribute of her is worth to be my example.

I know that will not be my only mission trip.. I know there will be more to come.. Its the beginning.. Every mission trip is a step of faith..

I believe when God has impressed something in ur heart. Its not something that u urself can remove, nor circumstances can hinder. I have been there and experienced that.. Its in his perfect plan nicely crafted out for u.. His beloved Child...

I am priviledged to call him my Abba Father..

I am priviledged to know that a chinese national, previously studying in Tasmania is now serving as a trainee leader in one of the HC fellowships. The discipleship/foundation he received in Australia definately contributed to his walk with God here in BJ.

I am blessed to know the work going on in Tibeten Christians.

I am blessed to know leaders are being trained all over the world.

Friends, I just marvel at the HAND OF GOD in ALL our lives. You dont know where and how the God of Wonders is going to use the work of our hands in OCF and the ripple effect.Just an encouragement to all of you that your labours are not in vain. Gods plans and purposeswill be seen.

I am quite tired today. Been reading and talking to some friends this afternoon. Today suddenly one of my friends from Sydney asked me to go East Coast next week. I haven’t been there for a long long time. I actually like the beach but its rather inconvenient to go but this time my friend asked me to go. I also wan to catch up with him, haven’t seen him for a few months now. Gonna go n makan roti john then go East coast…

I went for dinner with an old friend today. We had Jap food.. I think I ate too much.. my stomach is bursting..

One of our friends is getting married.. this friend is much older than us. Not surprising that he is getting married.. just that he only know his bride for 3 mths n they r already rushing into marriage..

Dunno why.. I feel like visiting Sentosa these days but none of my friends seem to want to go..

Today I realised that my decision in 2004 is right. It has proven to be right.. I once thought I made a wrong decision. It was tough at the beginning, difficult to move on.. but now not only I have moved on, I have been happier since then..

There is no need to speculate what the decision was about or related to who... just know that its a good decision.. thats good enough..hehe..

I was up till late last night doing my own stuff.. talking to a few friends..

Last night at about 1.45am, I read an email. An email from a good brother, a good friend, my coleader. He is going home. I read his testimonial and truely I witness God's hand upon his life and I am happy for him to be able to journey on, to begin a new chapter of his life. I was sad when I read the email. Nothing to deny about.

I remember G telling me more than one and a half yrs ago to take things by my stride, to accept that people come n go. Though I dun see G often but she taught me some things which always remains in my heart. She taught me wat it takes to be a leader 2 yrs ago. She taught me how to be humble and to learn from others. Her words rang in my mind last night again. I remembered every word.. I remembered her expression when she told me those words of wisdom.

I went to God for comfort last night. In the early hours of the morning, I seek my God and his strength. Being in adelaide for 2 yrs, I saw my friends come n go. Those dear to me, I do keep in contact.

I saw how they exalt God. I saw how they serve God..

God spoke to me through this verse last night.

Phillippians 1:20

"I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death."

"My determined purpose is to be my utmost for his highest -- my best for his glory." To reach that level of determination is a matter of the will, not of debate or of reasoning. It is absolute and irrevocable surrender of the will at that point. Shut out every other thought and keep yourself before God in this one thing only -- my utmost for His highest.

Extracted From:
My Utmost For His Highest
Oswald Chambers

I like this devotion book. It has always set me thinking. Thank You!

Its 8th January 2007..

I havent been updating my blog with my own stuff except for some quizes n my heritage.. Those r some of the stuff I found on my friends' n cousins' blogs.. found them amusing so tried them..hehe..

Since coming back from Chiangmai, I have been meeting people almost everyday.

To date I have met up with some of my secondary school friends n poly friends.. didnt really want to meet up with any of my college friends..

Actually some of my friends changed alot.. especially friends from secondary school.. Maybe this a materialistic world, a world where people look at how u dress.. a world where people look at brands.. makeup n everything.. Its superficial.. There are always some people whom I dun wan to meet.. we just dun click anymore.. frequency is just too different.. Also I hate to be fake.. I have always believed in spending within my means and to be presentable and accountable..

I dun wan to find myself hanging out in pubs.. drinking.. smoking.. these habits disgust me..

I was out with Grace on friday. We went to a "New York", a new restaurant along City Link. I had a good time catching up. Can u imagine us having dessert for lunch? Ice cream for lunch? Initially we wanted to have main meals but the menu was so Aussie that it didnt appeal to us. So in the end we decided for dessert.. That day, I managed to get new sandals as well as a new dress for a cool price..

Saturday, I met up with Winnie, Lingmoi and Yingxue at Jurong point. Havent been catching up with them for several years.. Its great spending time with them.. knowing how they are getting on.. Too bad huijun was working that day.. otherwise she can join us too.. There were quite some updates on our mutual friends..

Sunday, after church, I went to vivocity again. The last time I was there I was only there for a short while.. didnt even managed to browse through any of the shops.. Cos I was rushing off to pack stuff to go over to Leanne's place.. I was there early yesterday, went to Pacific coffee to use internet.. cos something was wrong with the plugs at home.. but thank God, just had the electrician over just now.. so now everything is fine.. otherwise cannot even blog.. haha.. I like that cafe there.. cos they have both the indoor n outdoor cafe.. which is cool cos the outdoor cafe is facing the sea.. imagine that.. u can see the sea view while drinking coffee or chatting.. isnt that amazing? When Yoshi comes to visit .. must bring her there.. nice nice cosy cosy place.. I was at the cafe for quite a while thinking through some stuff n drinking my hazelnut latte.. It was so so sweet.. but not bad still.. but not suitable for my not so sweet sweet-tooth..

Met up with Xuanhua, one of my good friends during my poly days.. She didnt change much, we click as well as before.. In fact, I think better than before.. The topics we chatted about were deeper than before.. I had fun seriously.. I am glad seeing her happy.. We had lunch at Sushi Tei. Its a nice restaurant facing sentosa.. they even had a balcony where u can take pictures.. something different.. The service was good.. n we order quite a lot cos the serves were small.. It has been a while since I had such good jap food.. After lunch, we went shopping around.. didnt buy much stuff.. in fact I only bought biscuits n candies.. Every year I have this habit of getting shortcake n almond cookies from Marks N Spencer... My family loves them..
I ran into a friend from Adelaide.. But he was so shocked to see me.. think shy or sth.. haha.. make me look like a fool.. Maybe I shouldnt have said hello or something.. ah.. nvm..

Last week was fruitful..
Apart from going out, meeting friends, I read a couple of books, caught up with news n shows..

I am beginning to enjoy this holidays

Oh ya, I got myself a new journal too.. I like journalling in my private time. I like myself to be organised..

The reason why I keep a blog is to be able to record what I have been doing, to record what has been happening in my life..To keep all these memories with me whether they are happy or sad.. to keep in contact with my friends all over the world.. from UK to Aus to most asian countries like Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, HK and everywhere else...

But more importantly to know that God has been faithful all along.. I believe all things r in the hands of God.. whether good or bad..

This yr there is so much ahead of me to achieve.. I want to look far..
I want to remember that in all things I do.. its only for the glory of God.. May it be studying, taking care of myself or serving..
