Hmm, But gotta watch out for my breathing now… Oh Oh, and hopefully I got a job ASAP. Since I had type to 9 different places… God, I think I really need the job… Hopefully, I could be of help to Jie Fu too.
7th Dec ‘09
- Which is tomorrow!!! Finally, a day at Frontier Cafe!!! Oh, and will be going to random place to shop… Mom… INSIST that I HAVE to BUY CLOTHES… Can’t I just buy a set? Pluuuuease… The money could be of good help to eating you know?
Last year, it is only 5months before I am able to be back home, at that point of time, missing home wasn’t even a thought in my mind. However, as I come to know more of Christ and being away from my family, my thoughts are re-shaped to something like, “Will it be better to have a stronger family bond?” However, it seem like there are so many problems that I seem to ignore… Or probably afraid to faced it… Gosh, how am I able to go through them? God, help me!!!
The very first day. Woke up, found myself back in a familiar place and smiled, “I’m back.” *=)* Finally, could get another read on Life! newspaper and watching news on the TV, a coffee on the table and a slice of kaya toast. Something I missed for the past few months. However, I guess habits do change when you got too used to not having much from watching TV, not having your usual solid newspaper, I felt like I left out a lot about the world I used to be in but the newspaper don’t seem to attract me any more.
The many changes… Extra stops for MRTs, new buses, new buildings, freshly painted buildings, new constructions, new decorations, new transport systems, change of people, etc…
Having a jog around the same area seem to introduce to me a lot of new things or thing that are happening around my current neighbourhood. Fascinating yet depressing too… Haha, I guess I just felt like the place is changing without giving me any notice… I guess God is really telling me, “Keep up with them (People) my dear child.”
God, is it really a time to step out and adapt to the changes? I guess, the good thing out of all the realisation is that I know I have changed too for the better. In terms of getting to talk to my Ah Ma, thinking through before I go “bursting” at my dad or bro. Or doing anything stupid before my mum receive the resulting trashes…
Saw Ivan on Wednesday (Sis’ Birthday!), both of as was so surprise, and officially welcomed him when he said, “Woah, Singapore is very small.” Haha, looks like he is adapting well in Singapore. Heard he like it here, however, work is pretty demanding. Well, again, welcome to Singapore! I guess, that is like how you see peoples faces in Singapore, you could hardly see a smile around. I have always asked myself, “Why don’t you be that person who smile? Pass the smile around and see what that smile could do?” It is like saying, “Do your best, and God will see your heart and He will help you overcome the problems.”
Told him that my dad didn’t know that I already accepted Christ long ago. He asked, “You want me to tell him?” I was shocked and said, “No. Immediately.” However, after we went back to our seat, I thought, “I could have said OK! instead of a no.” Am I not ready?
But Lord, You had given me one of the best dinner after I came back from Brisbane! Fried Yam, fresh oysters, Chinese herbal soup, non-fake fruit punch, yummy desserts and a good family gathering! Can’t ask for more. Thank you Lord! I am sorry…
***
God. I still can’t figure out so many things. Why is it that I can’t accept that I am unable to behave the way I am when I am in Brisbane, when I am with Dydy? I seem to be still filled with anger… Frustration… Questions of why is it so hard to talk to him or even make him understand? Why is my brother still playing with games for hours? And I am saying solid HOURS!!! He is 32!!! What is wrong with him??? Is he really serving God wholeheartedly or blindly? Is he going to church as an excuse? Does he like to make excuses? Dydy? What about him? Why is he so easily angered? Why is he stubborn? Why is he always blaming mom for all the problems? Is he just a person who PLEASED people who is so called “high-class” lawyer? Why must he look down on people’s capabilities? Is his view ALWAYS right?
Lord what about me? Am I living the way I should? Why am I not listening to You? Is my obedience even there when I face them? I am suppose to be who I suppose to be and someone I like to be? Why couldn’t I control my temper sometimes when I am with them? I am too in a rush, that I forgotten to pray and wait upon You?
God. Is it right to come back? Sometimes I felt blessed to be back, sometimes I hated to be back. Am I running away? Hiding? Facing head straight? Or doing well under Your command?
Woke up like 4.30am in the morning today, and was like, hmmm, lets praise the Lord and have a fresh morning to start my revision!!! It started of with “Completely” by Ana Laura, which adds on to my favourite list, I like her voice and the meaning of this song. However, didn’t want to just stick to listening her CD, I decided to listen to WOW hits2010… Yeah, you must be thinking, “But 2010 is not here yet?” Wellllllll, ehhhhh, I am just an innocent consumer, so yeah, I have no idea too. But yeah, it has heaps of pretty good song. I really really like, The Motion by Matthew West, Cinderella by Steve Curtis Chapman and He is With You by Mandisa. Here comes the ultimate! HILSONG KIDS 2008: Follow You!!! Oh gosh, I am so so so sooooooooooo GLAD that I bought it, and yes, I am so gonna buy their DVD for their 2007 one. Though of buying their 2006 one too, but… NVM.
Oh man, I love the kids and the dance move, I practically dance with the music along with the video on youtube for 1.5 hours… Yeah, kinda wasted my 1.5 hours in the morning on it rather than studying for exams huh. BUT!!! God loves me!!! Not that He will bless me with my studies while I am actually having fun listening to Hillsong Kids, just that He prompt me to go to Uni to study after all the excitement and “jumpiness”. I so love the dance move and the kids song!!! This really makes me think twice about joining WAM… OH NO!!! HOW?!?!?! I want to join WAM too!!! But… BUT, BUT!!! KFC!!!
KFC?
WAM?
The thought comes out… Hand Food Ministry to someone, and join both WAM & KFC… OR join only either KFC or WAM… Worst… Both also don’t join, just go with the flow and stay in Food Ministry… =’(.
Anyway, back to studying… In UQ, someone took the “main” room for “our” church study, so we ended up studying in a smaller room. Man. Asked Rach whether she have Hillsong Kids 2007: Tell the World DVD, so that I don’t have to buy it. MUA HAHAHAHA, luckily she said NO!!! MEANS I CAN BUY IT!!! Gosh, yippy! Thank you LORD!!!
Haha, another happy thing. Yippy!!! Dinner on Mami and J!!! Finally, J got food for us poor students. Tee hee, ahem, after much persuasion… Not. I feel bad too, hehe. But thanks J!!! Mami’s egg was really good, may be because I like salty food. Hmmm, is it salty? NVM.
Well, studying today is a bit not productive again… And worst of all, well it didn’t affect me, but!!! My leisure paper is so bad!!! It is like a total replica of 2006 paper and I didn’t even practice on that paper, worst of all, I forgotten so much of my theories!!! Sian… No difference talking about it anyway… Haiz… HAIZ…
Can’t wait to go back home… *Singing*, “So far away~”
Yes, I have yet to come to a conclusion between WAM and KFC… Well, lets see how 2010 starts, and where God wants me to be. Ultimately, I know His plans are definitely way better than mine! AMEN!!! Okies, back to study, study, study… STUDY!!! =’(
Surrender yourself to the Lord and allow Him to take full control of your life, for you shall be blessed with His love and inherit His perfect plan for you, obey and have faith in the Lord, your God and Holy Father.
“He who belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”
John 8:47 (NIV)
When I say Brisbane City, it is not the one at Myers Centre, nor the one at an expensive corner of Queens Street Plaza, but the one that caters to mainly working people at the almost end of Queens St. Well, going there is not wanting to blend in with the working people of course, just that the environment offers less interruption and more comfortable to study. And most of the people who goes there, either comes before or during work, or goes there to do their work or studies.
Well, revision today is much better compared to the past 5days, not much of the lazing around and not being able to focus. Haha, and Mish took all the benefit of this, saying because I studied with her. Yeah right! =P. Anyway, studying at Starbucks, not only benefited me through focus but also gives me spiritual encouragement.
I forgot how we started with the whole, “how is your spiritual life been going?” Well, not that Rach didn’t asked, just that our spiritual life have been constantly growing, and new stuff tends to occur and also just to account to one another. I am really glad that Mish have been growing quite a lot, I praise God for that! Recapping back the topics we used to have ages ago and comparing them to what we share with each other today, is like heaps of differences.
Hmmm, about my spiritual life. I guess, it is the baptism of the Holy Spirit. During those time when I was prayed for, I guess the thought of not being able to fully give in to Christ really stopped me from moving with the Holy Spirit, I think that also answers the question why I find it hard to get answers from God. However, God pulled out that very problem and allow me to solve it slowly with Him. Has been solving this problem for quite a while already, however, it felt like I still got a long way to go. Really want to thank Mish today thou, very encouraging words from her, allowing me to have that ease to let go a little more. Hearing of how she is so happy just growing in Christ and that she is still growing, just make me feel so thankful to God of how He has changed our lives for the better. And still continuously pouring out His love and reaching out to us.
I really hope this problem will be solved soon, and that I could be baptised in both Holy Spirit and Water!!! Ah~, hopefully I could get the marks I expected, seeing that I am lazing around so much. If I really get them, all praises definitely goes to God. Even if I don’t reach there, I still thank God for making me realise so much things during this period! Shout PRAISE!!! Amen!!!

Back at home, turning on my laptop and logging onto WordPress have become a break time to me. After I finished typing this post, I was reminded of the post Michelle told me while studying in Starbucks posted by J. I don’t know the whole inside of the post, but I just felt like entering our J4 LoveGodFirst blog and check out that very post. Praise the Lord, I had a break through! Thank you Lord!
“The notion that “our thoughts are not His thoughts” is an old testament statement about a rebellious Israel whom the prophet Isaiah was imploring to repent (Is 55:8). To the obedient, to the Christian, the statement reads more like, “Our thoughts are His thoughts.” The Bible is clear: It is the unbeliever who has the depraved mind (Rom 1:28), and that mind is hostile toward God (Rom 8:7). The believer, the Christian, on the other hand, is commanded to be transformed by the renewing of his/her mind (Rom 12:2).“

DC’s Plan After Exams, Before Return to SG
Nooooooooo!!! I can’t believe it happen again, here comes headaches after nosey problems… Really hate it, especially during exams period or SWOT V. Currently have a little break, and giving myself more fresh air before I go crazy by staring blankly outside of my window, thinking how branches just don’t know how to fall smartly into my courtyard and that I have to clear them away before I leave this frequent-need-of-repairing apartment (from lights to cupboards to gas stoves.) By now, I have already finished half a box of tissue papers, trying to clear my nostrils after a nose block, which then comes running nose/ flu. Gone away is the sore throat, but say hi to headaches. =’(
Don’t really want to go to Uni often, now that I have my own room with the comfort of the toilet and food and if I need boiling water, I could have it within 5mins… Don’t really have to go all the way to school, spending minimum 30mins on travel. Most importantly, I won’t affect people studying with my nostrils problem… Sniffing and going “ah ah ah khem” (sounds are approximate gauging base on my weak hearing). And I have 10 more rolls of tissue paper to accompany me with my sniffing and clearing of pipes… “Tissue. Breath fresh” (Subway commercial…)
I will go to school eventually, want to print past exam papers…
Currently, trying my best to avoid listening to non-Christian music, and also avoiding listening to music while I travel. Which is… A TORTURE!!! Well, to me. I couldn’t pay attention while studying and I get a little restless. The good thing is that I talk to God more while I walk to places. Haha, Amen. But still, I couldn’t concentrate on my study… I ended up, having a 32 songs play-list, to a song “play-list” – Forever by Hillsong. Have been hearing this for like the past 2hours already, and I wasn’t bored. Amen!!! Thank you Lord!!! Most importantly, it keep me revising for my exams rather than idling around my house or staring for almost 30mins outside the window (now I only stare for 3mins to rest my eyes).
Yippy, my one-song-only mp3 shows that it is fully charged, got to go and leave this lappy of mine in the lonely living room. Hmmmm, should I add another one more song to keep “Forever” accompany? =P.
Dear Bloggy,
I’d shepherding in the morning today, and was feeling sad and angry when Rach is talking about the topic on trials and temptations. Sad because I felt like I had done something wrong that made Jesus angry… And I felt angry because of what I had done. These few days, have been my “C&R” (Check & Resolve) time. I have heaps of negative points to list, don’t think I want to go through them. Another category to add, is my trials… However, God with His gracious heart really reached out and touches me. Thank You so much Lord!
I felt that even though God knows that I am that sheep, who stubbornly-keeps falling off the edge , He still continuously pour His heart out for me and nurture me. Hmmm, I think this verse could speak about God’s love to His poeple:
Exodus 34:6 (NIV)
6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness,
Wrote on Janice’s Birthday card, saying how glad it is to have her born into this world and into our J4 family. Yippy, I instantly got invited to her birthday too!!! Which is like 5 minutes before I arrive to the party… Felt so weird. However, BEING WITH THE KIDS!!! *chill~* I blended in. Eating the STICK RICE made by Jia Yen’s Mom and eating the attractive-sweet-delicious cupcake. The most important thing is, I have never seen so many kids of Hope Church before. They all look so cute!!! Especially Jan Jan and Issac’s little new brother!!! THEY ARE SO CUTE!!! EXTREMELY CUTE!!! EXTRAORDINARY CUTE!!! *ah hem* They are cute.
Youngest in the J4 Family, however she brings joy to everyone! =D
He is sooooo Cute!!! (Jia Yen's Mom & Issac's bro)
Ahhhhh, I miss kids toy. How I really wish my room will have a small slide down to the floor from the side of my bed, about 1.5m of height, or has a see-saw which could carry my weight…
