28/2/07- I am just too excited....

you got to read on my entries on this same day.

Yes even though the situation is not on my side, i wanna say "halleluya, praise the Lord... Amen.." becos i hv tasted how good is the Lord to me. i experienced my down period for a while, plus lack of sleep has realli make me feel very depressed... i am not happy for a moment (last week)..

finally, i submitted the proposal to my manager today... got to start my gear working ... it's definitely not an easy task ... much effort needed! yet can be happy becos i hv good colleagues... i am thankful ..

however, the sunday sermon, Dr Gordon Wong used Ps 19 to highlight the the God of creation, and the Lord of heaven earth.... his words is so wonderful and is so important.
it can revive our "tired" soul (i.e. the health), it can give us wisdom (a good education), and it can give us joy (i.e. happiness).... haha... wasnt it wonderful and amazing...
this is sth that i am looking for... wat do i desire? who doesnt want to have good health (have rest of mind and soul and spirit), a good education (wise), and joy (can face all circumstances - be it happy or sad, good or bad, ...)

thank you God for the timely words ... refreshing ... filled with joy ...

today is a hectic day ...

however, i am not feeling weary becos Jesus has promised "come to me, all those who are weary and tired, i will give you rest. take my yoke upon you, for i am gentle and humble in heart. my yoke is light ... (Matt 11:28-30) i realise it is so true that in Christ alone, i find rest for my soul. i can face storm and stay calm... it's becos Jesus' comforting words...

the law of the Lord is perfect, it can revive our souls... believe it or not? it's ur choice... heehee...
i believe that only those who have faith in God can come to his throne of mercy and get blessed, renewed, and move on with joy ... and live a victorious life even though he/she has to face lots of ups and downs in life....

it doesnt matter how tough is the situation or how others think of me... becos the Lord is with me, the Lord is protecting me, the Lord wants to speak to me, he desires i hear him and listens to him...

good nite :))
hope that you ppl are well ...

25/2/07 Sunday was great...

After the worship service was over, and i was at the canteen, sister Rosalind came to me, held my hands, told me that God has ministered to her thru me. God had encouraged her when she heard the verse from Matt... and the prayer that i prayed during the worship... sth abt trusting God... oh i was filled with joy... it's so amazed... God works in our lives in such a special way..

indeed i was very very happy... u know why?
i had been v very tired since i started my new job... there was deadline to meet... i got to rush...
my feeling very terrible... and i know that i didnt spend enough time with God and i was feeling guilty.... i dont like this kinda feeling... i want to feel close to God, hear him, and be strengthened... on sat, i prayed hard, asking God to help me, to allow me to experience his love and his guidance once again... i prayed for myself, and the church, and some of my bro and sis in Christ.... in fact i enjoyed praying, talking to God without any hindrances...
it was a great time to be silent once again, to just listen to God and i enjoyed the silent moment though it was not very long...

i just want to thank God for loving me, and loving my sister Rosalind, and letting her hear his own voice, and his words....
may glory be to God... Amen...

have not been sleeping enough for past 3 nites.
slept at 2am and got up at 7am.
i wanna have a day just to sleep... heehee
i m tired ... v tired ...
dont feel like blogging :(
however, i wanna thank God, for dying on th cross, and giving us redemption.
for those who come to him and blive in him, he will save, forgive and welcome them.
hope that i m filled with joy and God's presence...
good nite :))

1st day of CNY

cny falls on sunday again. this is the 2nd time after last yr. we went back to our home church, ang mo kio methodist church, for worship becos today hcmc was a combined service. that's why we could go back amk church as we did not nd to serve in hcmc.

it's indeed good to see old frens in amk church. many of yfers or syfers alr married and gave birth to their 1st or 2nd baby. how amazing to see the new-born. it symbolises life is continuing and life is realli good and energetic. of course it's great to talk to those uncles and aunties there. they have missed us and remembered us. thank God for their good health and being able to serve the Lord faithfully. thank God for watching over all our peers and their families too. they have been propsperous in terms of nurturing their kids and teaching them with God's words. God is good to them all. i feel so amazed... God is real in our lives... nice memories came back ...
thank you gracious Lord!

hui li told me that the man who sat on wheel chair was uncle mu jin. i did not recognise him in the 1st place. think he had an accident and he needs to depend on wheel chair. thank God that he could still cheerfully talk with me. and uncle shen2 en fetched him to church every sunday. i was realli heartening to hear that. uncle shen2 en is always such a blessing to ppl arnd him. may God continue to watch over uncle mu jin.

we said good bye to these bro and sis, and we proceeded to kokwei's mom house.
this is what we normally do, gather at one hse, and we would have lunch over there.
