a piece of news that came at the wrong time. maybe i'm over-reacting, but i'm really affected by it. how to carry on? what should i do now?
God, only You know how lousy i'm feeling now. Father, You know the amount of sadness i feel in me. God, be my Comforter, help me to get out of this and lift my eyes to you only...

3 yrs...
Lord, as I look back on the past 3 yrs and how u've guided me through, i can't help but give thanks to you. Today as I celebrate this day with you Lord, this is what I wanna say to you...
Come and make my heart Your home. Come and be everything I am and all I know. Search me through and through 'till my heart becomes a home for You. A home for You, Lord. A home for You, Lord. Let everything I do, open up a door for You to come through, And that my heart would be a place where You want to be. Come and make my heart Your home. Come and be everything I am and all I know. Search me through and through 'till my heart becomes a home for You.
Thank you Lord, for all you've done, and all you're going to do.

Appreciated and thankful!
It's been a tiring week for me cos was sick for the second half of the week, which was v much worsened after a night of staying out and sleeping late yesterday.
went back to ntu on thurs despite not feeling well. had a good catchup with enghow over breakfast. It's been a long time since we had a good chat.. glad to know that he's doing well, and living his life meaningfully and purposely for Christ and His Kingdom.
went to the revived HQ at the old canteen A. reached there rather early, so there were not many pple around. spent time fellowshipping with God and reading my book. It's been a long time since I had the luxury to do this on a weekday. had a great time with God. The setting there reminded me of the days where i was still serving in NYC, fellowshipping and doing our own things at HQ. The stretched yet joyful days =)
then met up with jingting for lunch. a long-awaited meetup. it was a bit short, but yet meaningful. Really thank God for this friendship that He has given to me. There probably wasn't any reason y we shld be close, of how we even started this friendship. Yet, He blossomed it. 2 pple who had nothing realli in common becoming good friends. This indeed, is something that can only be done with the help of Christ.
Was v touched in service when jingting came up to me during the "welcome" section of the service to give me a warm hug! she's sitting quite far from me in service, and she bothered to come all the way up. it's not the first time that i experienced this i guess. There was once reuben also came up to where the YP sits to give me a welcome handshake. It's in times like that, i really feel appreciated and valued. Labour in the Lord is not in vain, esp when i know that the little things i've done have impacted their lives.
God, thank you for the chance to serve You and Your pple. Father, i feel so honoured that You choose to use me though i am so sinful, and so human. Thank You for giving me friends that are so real and true to me although i'm so undeserving. God i pray that you'll continue to preserve these friendships, and let them be a testimony to Your greatness in my life. Thank You for all the friends that You've given to me, as well as all the pple that You've brought into my life. In Jesus' Name I give thanks, Amen.

Evolution FC won!
Woke up today to Timothy's sms stating the venue and time of the soccer match. I didn't know that they were having a match today, but since i'd be in town and wld be free, thought I'd just drop by to support them.
Before the match had a great meetup with Peijing. Haven't met her for 2 wks cos of her exams, but i really enjoyed the time of catching up. I appreciate how open and real we can be in front of each other, talking rubbish, talking about God, talking about my life, and hers as well. Everytime i meet her, i wonder when will be our last shepherding session. I think i'll miss her a lot. oh well, everything that will change is for the better. This i trust.
Then met with rach and yenling to go support soccer. Took a cab down and wondered if they've already had their half time cos we reached super late, and all the water was with us. And thank God! the moment we stepped into the field compound, the whistle blew for half time. And the guys had drinks to hydrate themselves. The weather was OMG hot. Had a good time of watching, laughing and getting to know the pple who were present.
Score was 2-0. We won! Finals will be on 17th Aug, and i'm going! yippiE! Hope more pple will be going this time round to show them their support.. I think it'd definitely be a great encouragement to them!
Hope League is drawing to an end, but i pray that the friendships that the brothers have forged through the matches will continue to remain =)
On the way home, i received a msg that was really heartwarming. I miss the old NYC days... But i'm glad that the friendships that i've forged in NYC remains.. =)

God reminded me..
Today during worship time in service, God reminded me of what He had told me 2 yrs ago during my water baptism. 2 of the prophecies.
First one was a verse in Matt, abt not letting your right hand know what your left hand is doing. Anything given in secret will be seen by my Father in Heaven.
Second one was an image. An image of me on stage, but there no audiences. I felt lost, i felt panicky that no one was there to watch me perform.
God, thank You for reminding me of the words that You've spoken to me before, but yet I've forgotten. Help me to reminder that I only have one audience, which is You. Lord, help me to stay focus and search my heart as to why I serve you. May you shine forth that light of truth on my heart and help me to change whatever is not pleasing in your eyes. God, may my actions and words reflect the goodness that you've done in me. Let all that I do bring glory and honour to Your name. Lord, I just wanna fix me eyes on you and you alone. Let all the rest fade away.. Thank You God, Amen.

Thanks NG6D1
Moved on from NYC May last yr, into this spiritual family where i stayed and growed for the past 1 yr. This yr june, i've moved from them to YP1.
Just came back from the farewell they held for me today. Had dinner at Waraku @ MS, the place where they celebrated my birthday for me last yr too. I'm so thankful for them in my life for the past 1 yr. I guess I have a v different friendship with every single one of them, different yet special to me. Really glad that in a short span of one yr, I can say that I have once been a part of their life.
Was v touched by their affirmations for me. Some I really feel unworthy of, but thanks for encouraging me. I'm v glad to know that I have impacted their lives in some way or another. It has been a v great time serving and growing together with them. And seeing them grow each other towards God really warms my heart. Just as I left, I feel so glad that they're starting to forge closer bonds with each other, and open up more freely with one another. it's painful to leave this grp, but i'm glad to know that they're behind my decision to move to YP, and that they're praying for me.
I really do miss them. Although i might say otherwise.. Thanks so much for the wonderfully made sunflower card (cos i love sunflowers!), I feel so blessed. And also for the professionally, sincerely, beautifully hand-made card from HK. I appreciate this friendship too!
God, I thank You so much for this grp that you have brought me into for the past 1 yr. I thank You so much for the friendships that You've blessed me with. Though we might not be the best of friends, God i thank You for allowing me to be part of their lives. Father, i pray that You'll continue to grow and strengthen this grp, be it in their rship with You, or their friendships, I pray you bless them as they continue to live their lives for Your glory. Thank You Lord for working in our friendships too, that we can speak into each others' lives openly and encourage each other to look up to You in all things. Father, i love You and i love these pple. Pour your floodgates of blessings on them and bring them to a level of breakthrough with You. In all things and circumstances, we give You thanks. Amen.
