Thursday, July 31, 2008 New Heart
10:33 AM
Taken 280308 morning from my bed side windows.
The morning is good... The sky, the sea and the grassland blends into a beautiful picture. Praise God for His magnificent love for humankind that He has given so many pleasant things to us. Have the urge to run into His arms and hug Him so tightly and tell Him, "Daddy, thank you for everything. Here, all I have I return back to you... I love you, Daddy."
I know there's nothing that I do will ever be enough to return His love for me. But I know for everything that I do to please Him, He'll not belittle.
"I want a new heart, God. Mould me to be more like you, To love others the way You love me.
I want to cherish each and every seconds You've given to me. Align my mind with Yours, Build in me a character to reflect Your goodness.
I want to rest in Your presence daily. Walk in Your light even when the days seem dark, Jesus, everything is well with You around."
PS: Got a new tag board. =)

Monday, July 28, 2008 Search Our Hearts
10:21 AM
It's been a long long time since I last had a good long (really long) sleep.
Yesterday after lunching with my oikos mates, I went home... it was around 4pm that I fell asleep. Thought I would wake up in the evening to go for a jog but the moment I opened my eyes and look at the time, it was 4am in the morning. Ha. I think I was too tired especially only slept 2 hours the night before. Hee. Anyway, thank God that finally all my assignments for this school term are over and done with. Though the exam bells are still waiting to ring in August 11th, 12th and 13th, I'm really enjoying the days without assignments.
 Soon we'll be walking into August and I'm expecting for a new wave to sweep across our youths. Operation40 will officially take its launch next Sunday, August 3rd. All the leaders are seeking God for His favor and His Spirit to come and bring forth a revival among these youths. If you believe just as I do, please pray to God for a release of His fire into the youths' hearts and cause them to persevere through the 40 days of prayer and God will come and do a new thing in their life. We'll have a breakthrough like never before. Jesus is Lord!
Well, I'm also very excited and happy for another thing. Oikos is resuming! Yay! I know there were times that I didn't really wanted to go for oikos and even sometimes when I were there, my heart was not prepared and did not expect anything to come out of the session. I simply drag my feet there at times. But God rebuked me and I realised each and every person makes a difference to the group. If only every person in the group has a right heart and right attitude, and make effort to bring out the best in every session, things will change. God will definitely use us to impact many others. I love my oikos mates. Each and every one of them, not because they belong to the same group as me, even if one day they decided to join another group, I still love them. My prayer is that they'll not lose heart in God. I pray they'll not give up their walk with God. Well, I believe oikos is resume for a purpose. I really yearn to see true brotherly and sisterly love to be manifested in the group, that we'll set ourselves apart... not be selfish and really care and love one another, not for any motives or fame sake. Jesus come and take the lead...

One week ago, they called me. One week later, it's a done deal. You don't see such efficiency at work, I guess.
Thursday, July 24, 2008 Brain Collusion
1:50 PM
Assignments are like sleeping pills but stronger. Just looking at it makes me wanna sleep. One more to go before this term wraps up by 50%. Another 50%... will depend on how I do for exams which I have (shouldn't say) no confidence at all.
The whole week was a struggle for me. Reading and reading and reading articles that overloaded my brain with tons and tons of information and I've no time to digest before I have to critic about their writings. It's really tough reading people's writings especially when you have to figure out what those jargons they used meant. It makes me wonder if I really want to go into this line. Somehow, I feel maybe I may not. Don't know. Maybe.
Tomorrow assignment's due again and I hardly have any idea how to squeeze out 2500 words. I'm almost numb towards doing assignments already.
And my 猪朋狗友 gave me a surprise (shock! actually). I've automatically being robe into a Bangkok trip in August... which is like one month later. As usual, without even the need of me nodding my head, they've everything planned. Sometimes I wonder having such friends is good or bad. Ha. And don't know since when they've upgraded their hobbies from singing (low budget) to traveling (so high budget). Ha. I must learn to say no and be FIRM. Ha.
Well, life is a learning journey.
And I hope my doublet is reading this entry, at least lesser explanation is needed for not flying with them and ended up flying with 猪朋狗友. Sorry yo.

Friday, July 18, 2008 3 things
11:26 PM
ONE - God says there is a season for everything.
"To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones; A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to gain, and a time to lose; A time to keep, and a time to throw away; A time to tear, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; A time of war, and a time of peace." - Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
TWO - God taught me a lesson in love.I was just about to leave my home Rushed in to answer the telephone A voice on the line said, "I hope you can give the Light of God to make my baby live." I said I'm sorry I got something to do I got sales targets and I gotta see it through Give me your number and I'll get back to you sometime in a day or two I went outside for a taxi I waited and I waited and it got later And the rain came down And I soaked thre' my skin
Next thing I know I'm in a child's room My hand held over a baby blue Lying in a comma for over three days There was nothing the doctors could do anyway I said my prayers on bended knees Hope came onto the mother's face right before me Then my mind went back to my sales targets Last day of the month, there goes my luck I went outside for some fresh air Heard a commotion rushed in to see in slow motion The child waking up from his long sleep
All the people in the room has tears in their eyes A moment of reunion for mother and child And then I saw the Lord in the crowd He smiled and He said 'Become a salesman for God"
You seem to get your prayers right You seem to get your feelings right You seem to get your activities right But your love for others is lacking Get it right
Learn to love others for a moment It's the basis of salvation Love the organisation you belong to Is there anything more worthy Let us follow You O sweet Lord Let us be Your hands and feet Let us be the ones who greet Your will One earth as it is Heaven - From Songs of Praise Vol. 3
THREE - The Creator is in control
11.07.08 (In my personal diary)
As I was on my way home after class; after my conversation with E, I received a revelation. I knew it was not from my head but from the Holy Spirit. In the train, E asked me, "Don't you want to be in control of your own life? You letting God do it all? You have to pursue to earn certain things you want in life, isn't it?" I didn't answered her immediately. Maybe I was overwhelmed by her thoughts. Maybe I was curious, 'why would I want to control my own life'. I vividly remember the first thought that came to me at that moment: Because some things are not within my ability to control. I recalled about my family, I remembered the past, I realised the answer was "I really can't control." However, these words were not spoken.
After she alighted, I took the LRT and as I alighted at my station, the conversation in the train came back to mind... and these words...
"even if I am given an opportunity to control my own life, I can do anything I want without being restricted, would I? The answer was and is no. It was firm and I am still sure about it. I can't go back to my own ways and control my life because I really don't know how to. I've given Jesus the wheel a long time ago and now I don't know how to drive alone anymore. I'd lose it anytime. That's it. Because He is the Creator. He created everything. How can I be in control of the things He created? I didn't create myself. I won't know the control functions unless the creator teach me. Yes. That's it. He is the Creator and I am His creation. If I have created a robot, I would know how to operate it, to repair it, I would know how to make it better, what's the best way to use it. Nobody else will know what's so special about it unless I reveal it. It is the same for the world, especially when it is so complicated, only the Creator know how to operate and bring out the best of it. What's the best of me, God knows best. So, why not let Him do what He wants with me, while I enjoy serving Him." Praise God.

2:33 PM
"He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."

I've almost never finish any assignments so way before due date. But counting the number of assignments and exam dates so near, I just have to force (or discipline) myself to get some work done before time starts chasing after me. Ha. And well... Today, I should get two assignments done which are due only on Friday!! Haa. Doesn't it feel good to see the number of piled up assignments get lesser every day? Hee. I do feel good. Ha. But come to think that I've no time to break before starting another assignment is a drag. "Be strengthen! Be strengthen! Be strengthen!"
It is extremely comforting to know that after this term I only have two more terms left and DONE! That's it. Enough of "books-eating". Maybe I'll be hungry over them again one day BUT definitely not for the next two years. It's giving me "food poisoning". Time to vomit and flush them out before it start rotting in me. It'd be application time! Ha. Sounds like I've graduated. I wish.
All right, gotta go do some more research...
OH YA. Somebody is growing out of "TEEN" already. Let's welcome VERENE WU into adulthood (still illegal though)! Ha. Happy Birthday to you... My beloved doublet! Ha. We use the word like it really exist (copyrighted okay). Ha. Anyway, it's my prayer that you'll receive double portion of God's blessing and that you'll walk & trust in Him for the rest of your days.. and whatever that He has placed in your heart, I pray that it'll come to pass. May you be empowered with power & greater strength to do His work! Let His love, joy & peace flow through your life this year. =) Oh. and I actually have a silent prayer for you. Should I shout it out loud here? Hee. "God, grant verene patience as she wait for the prince-charming that you've prepared for her." =) Amen.
Anyway, I'd be seeing her later. Maybe she won't even see this post UNTIL "God-knows-when". Ha.
Praise God for all His promises to us. Thank You Jesus.

When everything seems to go wrong in your own perspective, learn to look at it from God's perspective.
Many things in this world have clouded our vision and in times when we thought we have found ourselves, the very next moment we lose it. How many times have you been going through an emotion "roller coaster" and how many times more?
Until we learn to hold on to God in the midst of a storm, we'll never see His plans for us. Some of us pray for infinity mountain top experiences and expect God to remove all the valleys because they are low, they are muddy and they are undesirable and painful to go through. But did you realised that it is during those times.. deep down in the valley that you will truely grow?
Because God knows that He has given us the ability and the strength to go through each and every difficult period of our lives. It is not something unattainable but by simply trusting in Him and He'll carry us through the toughest trials.
Right now if you think your life have been poisoned; it is filled with hopelessness, despair and you have no idea what the future is all about - Rejoice! Because the antidote is found. Jesus is more than a 'cure'. He is our salvation, our light, our future, our life, our hope, our comforter, our shelter... ... ... and He is our friend, in whom we can freely share and talk with and one thing I know for sure - If I give my heart to Him, He'll never walk or turn His head away from me... because He had chose to shed His blood for me.
"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." - John 15:13
Friday, July 4, 2008 More of You, Lord
10:04 AM
You know how time flies. I still miss and will always miss this time of last year. Today is the orientation of TLBC SOM Term II again. I so like wanting to go through it all over again and again and again... It is the kind of thing that you just want more and more. But nah, it's not God's plan for me to stay in the comfort zone to keep on receiving and not giving. TLBC was a process that God in His grace and love has given me the opportunity to go through and I am so so so grateful. Praise God. =) One year passed and God is moving mightily in my life and many others.
My boss and two other church friends must be enjoying their time over there right now. I'm sure God is going to do something even greater in their lives in the next three months. Praise God.
As for me, I have to say "WOW!". God has been real good and patience with me.
Thank you Jesus.
It's July. It would be a busy month in school and an exciting month for church. We're gonna have a 40 day prayer. The adults will be adopting our youths and praying for them specifically according to what the youths have written as prayer request. And the youths... they are doing even greater things, they'll be praying for the nation, church, and general issues for 40 days! Wow. It is going to be a real WOW experience and tell you what, OUR PRAYERS GONNA SHAKE THE EARTH AND CHANGE THE WORLD! God is a prayer listening GOD! Hallelujah!
Yesterday Ps Mark was sharing so excitedly about it with a few of us at Billy Bombers and my sight was drawn to a poster on the wall that says "We can do it!". Whoa. Prophetic? Ha. Amen.
This is the assignment month for school, and August would be exam and that marks the end of semester 2. Can't wait for it to be over.. Looking forward to completing the entire course next year.. I'm so excited to see what God has planned for me upon finishing the course..
"The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song." - Psalm 28:7
