Happenings!

Finally i had the time and mood to take out my camera and sort out the photos! Sometimes i wish i have the power or ability to upgrade my time to 28 hours like how we are able to upgrade our computer.

On the first day of work, SC was having an instructor course. However, he still booked-out for 3 hours just to have a dinner with me :)





On 31st October, our zone had a thriller night party and everybody dressed up to reveal their TRUE colour! SC and i dressed up as Mr and Mrs Nerd. And Mr Nerd became famous overnight! It was just fun, fun and more fun :)













On the first Tue on November, my ex-boss gave us a treat at Carousel(Royal Scotts Hotel), rewarding us for working so hard during NJRC and doing so well in this year NJRC. I had a great time that night, especially with all the eating.







I had taken some time out after work to visit BABY AXEL together with SC. He's grown so much after not seeing him for a month. Now is his fun age where he learns to sit, bull-dozing a little and interacting with others!





8th November is Fid and Azila's wedding day at Orchid Country Club. Stephanie came back all the way from her overseas studies and brought her youngest brother along too. It was like a gathering for the ITX staff.







Last Saturday i went into JB with some of the cell group members. Too bad SC need to be on standby for APEC if not the trip will be perfect with him around. Nevertheless, i had a great time in there with them, lets do it again soon!







On Thursday, i had a meetup with my favourite girls. Even thou i've been meeting miao everyday at work, i'm still pretty excited that 3 of us are having our monthly dose of meetup! Wenyi treated us to dinner again, we had like so much food till i gave up taking photos after a while.





Last but not least, during our monthnniversary, SC brought me a 2010 melody organiser, exactly what i needed and wanted now.

Stop making mistakes

I just get back from celebrating Pastor YK and Wenling's birthday at a christian pub just now, a lot of leaders shared about how they have changed their life and impacted them.

One of the ZS shared something that impacted me tonight too. She shared "How old do you want to be keep making mistakes?"

I don't remember the exact words, but this is what i caught. At that point of time, i had a shocked when i heard it. Then i asked myself the same question too, how old do i want to keep making mistakes and take my life casually, thinking that there are always time? In 2 years? 3 years? Or when i reach 30 then i should be a little more serious?

Honestly, i think i've wasted too much time trying to battle with myself, doing nothing serious and making all the silly mistakes. Perhaps i'm at a time where i really need to start getting serious, be it work, life, ministry or even relationship.

It's not that i'm not serious with all these, but i felt i can do so much better rather than taking things the way i do now. Time to get serious and stop thinking i can still play around.

Another random post, it's 1:24am, i need to hit the sack :)

Perfection

Many times, even without us knowing, we expect the people around us to be perfect. We do not allow people to show their attitude, their temper, their characteristics, their thoughts or even their true self because they will be label as CHILDISH or IMMATURE.

Many times, we've forgotten how others have mercifully forgiven us and accept the imperfection of ours. Just like the servant in the parable that Jesus taught, when he is forgiven of a debt of millions, he has forgotten about it and set his heart to put the person who owed him hundred to jail.

Many times, people tend to think the mistakes they made are of the past and thus the forgiveness does not count, or even the accepting of this imperfection is not counted as done before, because it happens long ago. Accepting of imperfection is easily forgotten by people who received it but hard to forget for people who accept.

Many times, it takes a lot of pain to know how much God has actually accepted the imperfect us but not the people around us. It's time like this that you know the ABBA FATHER really loves us like no other people in this world does.

Many times, many things are not like what many people seen it as.

I'm just glad that even if the whole world forsake the imperfect me, i still have God to cling on to.

Remember Lot's Wife

"Luke 17:32 Remember Lot's Wife"

There is this little scar in my heart that i have hidden from everybody, sometimes i even hide it from myself. Once in a while i'll ponder about it, does he still remember that i existed on this world or have i been completely forgotten by him? How could he walked out of a family like this?

I love being alone in my room in the middle of the night, thinking and pondering about the past or rather things that has already happen. Somehow without me knowing, i've been pulled and left behind while others have already moved ahead of me.

Perhaps i love to 钻牛角尖(Zuan Niu Jiao Jian) too much till the extend that i'm so hold back by the past and eventually leaving myself behind. At certain point of life i guess all of us will do this, or only happens to me?

When God speaks, he don't speak a lot, neither does he gives you 2 hours of lecture. He's always sweet and short, straight to the point. When he wants to smack you in order for you to move ahead, he does that gently and quickly too, no matter how hard it seems to move on.

Remember Lot's Wife, sweet and short. Stop holding to the past hurts or success, stop dwelling in them and live in them. I guess this is one of the simplest thing that everybody understand but few are able to keep away from it.

To move ahead and remove all the obstacles, you need to look ahead and keep taking one step all the time without allowing yourself to dwell on the past. If not, you'll eventually became a pillar of salt, remaining at the exact same spot waiting for time to bury you up.

God is more than good, no matter what lousy situation or transition i'm facing, he'll always be here speaking to me and telling me things that i needed. Sometimes, we need to be more than good to him too. Don't just ask God about us and our situation or life, why not ask yourself what about God?

Many are called, few are chosen. I believe God looks through EVERY SINGLE HUMAN BEING in the world before choosing where to place them, what calling to give them and how he should mould them in order for them to become better every single day.

Tonight, i really find myself being very selfish. He has given me wonderful promises, never ending love, grace and forgiveness over the silly stuff i did and the list goes on. I feel so ashamed that at times, all i knew was hiding in my comfort zone with my little scar thinking that is my whole world, ended up refusing to step out of the comfort zone.

It's time to stop hiding and dwelling on things that can't be change, time to move ahead and start thinking about things that i can still change before it's too late. This 3 words might mean nothing to you, but it'll be something i'll always remember.

Are you holding on to things that belongs to the past refusing to let go? Remember Lot's wife.

Thanks for replacing that little scar with your love, you're more than enough ABBA FATHER :)

Last week of freedom from slacking

Before i'm hit with busy-ness from work, let me do a proper update :)

On Monday, i went for my first job interview after which we headed down to Mushroom Pot for their Tea-Time Buffet. Please don't ever go and try, Sc and i had diaherra. after that :(





On Thursday after signing the employment letter, SC and I went to have a great dinner at Soup Restaurant. We're so in love with the food there, but the prices are a little too high for chickens, tofu and meats! Sorry, i'm only willing to pay high price for Japanese food!





Yesterday we finally fulfilled our crazy desire of eating steamboat at home, just 2 of us :) We went to Cold Storage to get some food before the chef wash the food and marinate the meat.





And i found another surprise on my bed that very night, i'm simply so in love with the BF, not because of the present but because of the gesture and thoughts. I found another Baby Eeyore on my bed and she's number 9! Sc brought her to accompany me through this week while he's out somewhere in some forest doing some training.





And without me knowing, the collection has grew to such a great one within this 21 months. I wonder how many will i have by the time we set up our own home :)

Tomorrow is my first day at work and it's not helping that SC is away training. But one thing i know, he's praying for me somewhere in Tekong. Now, i need to countdown to another 7 days before i get a teddy big hug from him again!
