just a note




29th July 07, Sunday - i was being reminded that I must serve God with a servant attitude. Which means, to serve without thinking of getting appreciated. If people appreciate you, thank God. If people don't - just do it with a smile and unto the Lord.





31st July 07, Tuesday - a thought came to me...is God a part of my life, as in very important, without Him i cannot live or just a gadget in my life, which means, i can do without it.

City@Prayer - High Street Centre 30th Floor


(These two pics are taken on the 30th storey of
High Street Centre located directly across from
the New Parliament House - taken on my first
attendance on 6th July 07, Friday)

1 July to 9 August 07, as usual most churches in Singapore will participate in the 40 Day Prayer & Fasting - praying for the Nation and also to use this time to wait upon God, seek His face and repent of any sins in our lives so that we will be right before Him.
This year is the 11th year LoveSingapore printed the prayer guide and of course it is the most excited and really heart, soul & spirit penetrating edition. Besides that, i got to join the City@Prayer - a lunch time prayer meeting at High Street Centre. (Try to be there on every Tuesday & Friday together with the Pastoral Staff, unless i am tight in my work schedule).

On my first trip there, i am being mesmerized by the breath-taking view from the huge window...so after the prayer, i took two photos of the view of Singapore. It's like a special momento to me.


Donuts


(A box of half eaten donuts - my brother cut each
flavours into quarters so that we could try a bit of
each flavour without biting the whole donut)


Donut server: "Yes, mdm, what 6pcs or 12 pcs?"

Me (a bit blur): "give me a 6pcs"

Donut server: "what kind of flavour?"

Me (still blur): "hmmm, 2 dark chocolates, 1 cheese, 1 cinnamon, 1 Oreo & 1 peanut butter."


Humm..that's me in the queue to buy some donuts to try. Suddenly don't know why most of the Singaporeans are crazy over donuts....and me our of curiousity when to Munchy Donuts @ Tanjong Katong to purchase half a dozen to try out. It cost me $6.50. Thank God for the money to buy something a bit pricey to treat myself. I went home and tried it together with my family and of really it worth the cost, it's soft in the inside and it's tasty. But it will be even better if there are chopped peanuts or almond flakes on top of the chocolate coating...too bad...they don't have it. Nevermind...anyway i dun think i will spent money on these...maybe once in a purple moon...

memo

Just wanna jot down some happy moments...

22nd June 07, Friday Felt relieved and thank God that my cell members opened their mouth to share about God's joy they have experienced through trials, receiving Jesus in their hearts and about the Joy when they see their friends whom they reached out to get saved. Thank God the He helped me in my sharing.

23rd June 07, Saturday Felt loved. My working pastor asked me whether do i want to drink orange juice. I said yes and she squeezed a cup of orange juice for me. Besides that she prepared bread cum sardine snack for me and for those who wants to eat.

24th June 07
  1. Sunday morning Louise asked me "what do you meant by to bless the Lord?" I replied that to me is like focusing on God and not to complain or whine during tough times but to trust in Him. (I did a check and found out that to bless the Lord means to show graditude towards God and to give thanks to Him in the form of praise and songs).
  2. Sunday night don't know why i just felt that there is this joy coming up from within me. The Joy of wanting to work - just simply couldn't wait to get back to ofice to clear my stuff... that kind of recharged energy...wow...

What's my hidden talent?

Your Hidden Talent

You are both very knowledgeable and creative.
You tend to be full of new ideas and potential - big potential.
Ideas like yours could change the world, if you build them.
As long as you don't stop working on your dreams, you'll get there.

What kind of chocolate i am

You are Milk Chocolate

A total dreamer, you spend most of your time with your head in the clouds.
You often think of the future, and you are always working toward your ideal life.
Also nostalgic, you rarely forget a meaningful moment... even those from long ago.

What Kind of wine i am

You Are Merlot

Smooth, confident, and popular - you're the type most likely to order wine for the whole group.
You seem to breeze through life on your intuition and wit. And no one seems to mind!
You're comfortable in any social situation you find yourself in, and you never feel outclassed.
And while you live a charmed life, you never let it go to your head. You are truly down to earth and a great friend.

Deep down you are: Balanced and mature

Your partying style: Surprisingly wild... when you let loose, you really let loose

Your company is enjoyed best with: Some greasy pizza

AT LAST AIRCON IS BACK IN WORKING CONDITION!

10th June 2007, a memorable day in my life - my home aircon fell sick. No aircon for the living room (that's okay as my family don't turn that on often unless necessary). As my room aircon shared the same condenser with my living room one, it affected me as i don't have aircon for almost a week! THank God for a spare standing fan that my parents have in their room so i could use it. But the side effects - didn't really sleep well. Well i am being pampered since after the renovation of my home seven years ago. To cut the story short, thank GOd for His wisdom that's upon the aircon technician, they cracked their brains and found out that one of the wire in the condenser was burnt (thus caused the power trip once the aircon was turn on). They repaired it and the aircon is back to working condition! (My parents need to purchase a new pcb for the condenser that cost $480!)

16th June 2007 back to my cool room for sleeping again....

Reconciliation

26th May 07, Saturday. Late evening received a call from my colleague asking whether can we talk and settle some heart issues. Actually she wants to settle it face to face but i told her to just tell me what she wants to say. She told me that she would like to sort issues with me. I said okay and both of us started to share out how we felt about each other. We ended the conversation with a prayer of reconciliation and forgiveness. (But i felt troubled after that...not sure why and this feeling linger until Monday, 28th May 07...even after pastor prayed with me i still felt lousy and troubled....)

28th MAy 07, Monday. Late evening...this time i called her and told her what happened, how troubled i felt...i asked her whether can we do a reconciliation enactment once again. She agreed. We both prayed and this time i prayed out with tears flowing....

God is good...HE knows that both of us need time to cool and let our wounds healed...didn't rub shoulders with her for almost a week (29th her dad was critically ill in hospital so she did not go to the Staff Working Retreat, 31st I went for camp until 2 June...received news that her dad went home to be with the Lord on 31st May 07 at 6am.... I went down to the wake on Sunday,
3 June 07)

CNY CELL VISITATION @ MY HOME ON 20TH FEB 07


Sumptuous Abalone / Salmon Lo-Hei , Cold Dish & Deep Fried Sotong Balls prepared by my mum for my cell group to enjoy.
Today my cell group members came to my home for the usual CNY Vistation and my mum prepared a sumptuous dinner for us. It was so yummy that we gobble up the food within 10 mins. All of us loved the Abalone/Salmon Yu-Sheng. The most hilarous part was that during our tossing of the Yu-Sheng, they began to say very positive things like: "salary increment", "those who study have good grades", "girls will get more prettier each day & guys will get more handsome each day", "Ruth to get married early" and "Dennis to quickly have a kid". etc....the way they put it was so funny...anyway we enjoyed every moment in tasting the food.
After dinner, we proceed to Labrator Park to watch the Sunset.

FRIDAY, 17/2/07 CELL-OUTING: DINNER

Today my cell-group went to Aerins Restuarant for our dinner. (You may visit their website to find out more about this restuarant at Raffles City Shopping Centre - Basement http://www.aerins.com.sg/ )

All of us loved the ambience. It's our first try at the restuarant and we simply loved it! HAha...We have a great time chatting and catching up with each other.

The most touching thing that happened today was that before i got to reach the restuarant, i called one of the members up and asked where they were located and he told me the place. (As i was still in the bus when i called him up, he wondered how come i still not yet reach the restuarant and began to call me up. I told him i am walking towards the shopping centre and reaching soon). It just warms my heart that someone even bothers to ask whether did i lost my way...guess it's the concern part - the little things that touches and bless my heart.

After we had our dinner, we went over to "THE LOFT" at Odeon Towers to check out the place...it's a pub...but i don't like it because the one who designed the place, placed a lot of wires to deco it and it makes me feel as if i am a "bird" being caged up....anyway we went off after a while.

After that it's go home time and we parted from there to catch our bus or taxi.

Praise the Lord for a wondeful night out.
