Remedy for heartaches~

It is true that when You focus on what you want, which is refusing to let that person go, that person will only become more irritated. no remedy for that already.. once you push him/her too far towards the edge, or even over it, it's the end.. only a slight chance of being normal hi-bye friends..

But allow me to tell You this..love is NOT about possession..the greatest love of all is to see the person HAPPY.. that is the most important thing and the MOST joyful moments.. To love someone is to cherish someone.. To love someone is to keep praying for her happiness.. in her daily activities and her walk with GOD.. Feelings are just feelings.. But when You placed feelings with the WORD of GOD together.. You'll soon realised that love is about giving.. and giving with an unconditional heart.. Love bears no hatred of evil.. Love remembers no harm.. Love overcomes sorrow and pain.. That's why when people say it's the END of everything.. My answer to them is No.. It isn't.. In fact, it's only the start of a new beginning.. No relationship or friendship is always smooth-sailing.. There'll be time when there are ups and downs.. The only difference is how You want to treat the matter and the person.. The relationship/friendship is only a matter.. But the person is after all a person.. Do you really want to hurt him/her that badly?? Everyone is after all a human.. We all have feelings.. But do not let your emotions and thinking make You become another person.. Learn to be patient with another.. Be forgiving.. You never know what is on his/her mind at that time.. One time foolishness is not the END of everything.. If he/she is truely reprentant, We as Christian..should exercise our love by forgiving him/her.. If we don't, what more can you expect from an Enemy?? That is why love is so uniquely specially and wonderful gift from GOD o Almighty..

Some of you guys must be wondering why am I writing all these.. Because that someone special has stirred my inner heart to reply to her opinion of love.. And that is what the world today THINKs about love.. once you loses it.. it's over.. But when we have Christ in our lives.. Love never fails~~ amen.. Because love brings hope, patient, kind and other fruits of the Spirit together.. It teaches us how to be forgiving and learning.. That is why we're different from the worldly thinking.. So there's no such thingy as called slight chance of being hi-bye friend.. Friends are always friends if you CHOOSE to be.. You have the ability to choose not a MUST or a 100% always-sure-this way-outcome.. How the outcome will be depends on what you CHOOSE not depending on the circumstances.. Why!? Because you have a choice, 2 options..Accept or Reject.. Remember that =)

We're a HOLY nation, a ROYAL priesthood, tongue and tribe..That we may see HIS glory shines through us.. Grace be upon you, my fellow brothers and sisters.. Agape~~

Come Holy Spirit~

Come Holy Spirit fall on me now

May Day Outing with Children Aid Society~

Harlowez people.. Well I wanna share my experience about an outing with the little children from this home.. The story goes like this, NTUC union would organise such outing for them so that they can enjoy themselves for a day..

So I went to the home located in between SIM and Ngee Ann Polytechnic.. Heh I was a bit late becos I mis-calculated my timing.. and of course, the bus was way off target.. but that's not the main point.. So let's go into details of the outing..

Well, there's a total of 24 children going with a total 22 volunteers there.. What impress me a lot is that, when their student teacher tells the kids to buddy a volunteer..2 of them just automatically super-glued themselves to me..one of them is called Bryan and the other Haly (sp).. but their student teacher does not allow 2 of them to be with me so they got separated.. what an irony cause my senior actually informed me that I would take care of 2 instead of 1.. but now job's easier..

So off we headed for the kampong glam where we played some old traditional games.. I was assigned to 'chate' (sp) and sparta tarwak (sp).. hehe my spelling was terrible i realised.. but it doesnt matter.. haha.. then I played with 5 of kids and demonstrated some of my skills.. didnt really manage to display impressively but I enjoy playing with them.. surely from their looks, they too had fun..

After that, we headed to Esplanade to look and the merlion.. I was given in dept history lesson that now I realised why Merlion was our symbol.. The lion represent Lion City, in which it comes from the word 'Singapura'.. And the fish.. reminds us that we were once a fishing village before Sir Stamford Raffles came.. this is called 'Temasek' - a fishing town..

Next up, the Singapore Expo where the kids had their lunch there, having a Fillet-O and a medium fries and a can of coke.. The kids are generally well-behaved but violent and mischievous if you ask me.. when you give them a balloon sword.. they can use it and create violence in their play time.. But one thing that caught me was that despite their roughness yet they make sure none was left out and they enjoy playing together.. I was impressed by them because there's even no discrimination and no gender as they played.. They reminded me of how children can that innocent..

After lunch, we headed for Snow City, where the kids and even us, volunteers got a fun time together.. As Haly was big enough to play with his gang, a little girl.. oops I forgot her name, haha.. she kept calling me Kor Kor, and I forgot to ask her name.. came to me and requested me to play with her.. So I went inside and played with her, ensuring her safety yet playing with her.. She reminded me of when I was 15.. I used to play with a girl called Amenda, she was sweet, cute and lovely.. then with her friend, Carrissa, we 3 went to play the snow slide together, it was very fun, we went up there 4 times, each of them wanting to sit on my lap and there we go down.. Swwoooss~~ haha.. I had to bring them out 2 times on the occasion that they cannot take the temperature of -5 degrees.. Best part, I was in 3/4!! haha.. in the end, I was the one transmitting heat to them.. Warm blooded lah.. haha.. It was a memorable session there.. although it was short only an hour, I think it was the highlight of the outing.. It was then.. after that event, I see many kids coming up to me.. the 2 of them even requested me to take them around Science Centre later, leaving aside their volunteer, but I told them to accompany their volunteers and make them feel welcome..

On the way back to the home, I was given a can of coke by a girl whom I consider naughty and I even did not really play or talk to her.. This surprised me and well, the whole bus knows about this.. I was then reminded that even the naughty ones, God still cares for them.. You will not know what impact you may have on their lives, but when they response you can feel how importance a 1 day event like this can mean to them..

I was encouraged by this outing and strengthening my believe that I really like kids.. They are innocent and very much needed us, to guide them, to love them, to be a bigger brother to them, to be examplary to them.. This was how much I learnt from or say a re-fresher course.. I thank God for making this outing possible, I hope that one day as they look back on this chapter of life, they will remember that fun is not just through playing but by doing it together.. I will pray for this kids that they will come to know the GOD in time to come.. Thank you, Lord..

Happy Birthday to You!!~

On this very day, I would like to wish a close friend of mine a Happy Birthday..

I dunno whether this msg will ever reach you but this 150th post is specially catered for you.. May God bless you in all the days of your life as you live on in His goodness..

Exams Over!!~

Haha..Praise thee to God.. my exams are finally over..

I had burnt so much over the past month studying, preparing and working of course.. now when I looked back at the papers.. indeed God's grace is upon me and I give thanks for keeping me healthy and cheerful.. Ok the paper was not as hard as I thot, but rather it was tricky.. I thank God that what I studied all came out for the papers and that all my fears were unfounded.. Really God was gracious in His love..

It was also during this period that my faith was being challenged many times.. someone I know was really sick that she was down with a high fever and vomitting.. then I prayed for her many times, but still God did not answer my prayers.. in fact, i was rather disheartened that she did not reply me as often as she would and her replies were short and rather negative.. I was like losing hope and trust.. but something in my heart tells me that this is why the more I should not stop.. I was reminded like Jacob when he wrestled with the angel of God and cling hard to him and refusing to let him go until He bless Jacob.. that was what I felt then, and soon I continue by faith to pray for her..

Soon after, I found out that she had dengue fever, and a chance of admitting into hospital for observation.. it was then I realised that how much faith do really I have, how important is she in my life..haha.. but thank God for Him being so faithful and steadfast because soon after the doctor checked that her blood count was above 100! in fact, better than me last time where mine was only 34!! Praise be to God, that she could be safely return home and rest.. And so the rest is history..

What is important is that I feel God's presence moving among us, His grace is sufficient for us, His strength is made perfect in our weakness.. Just like Paul said, we would need to fight a race well, even if the path ahead of us is dark, in God whom we trust and believe, we'll have the victory.. So I thank God for being so real in my life and as well as hers.. This encourages me and I would like to use this chance to encourage all of you, that in hard times, even though everything seems wrong and out, turned to God and by His grace, miracles do happen.. Lean no your own understanding, but trust in His timing, it is made to perfection..

I see His perfection through the form of angels rejoicing in His presence..
