There is one day this prompting in my heart to just write The Will of God on my msn. I supposed, this was prompted by Hebrews 10:35-36 which states that after I have done the will of God, you will receive His promise.

Ephesians 5:17 says, "Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is."

So what is the will of God? The next two verses tell us how to identify it: "And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"(Ephesians 5:18–20).

This is slightly different from what I thought His will wants me to do. I thought it to be very complicated and hard to know the will of God. Like what I will become when I graduate etc etc. But all He wants us to do is just to be filled with praises for Him and to give Him thanks for all things. And when we does that, we are redeeming the time, because the days are evil (Ephesians 5:16). The time lost can be from idling, doing unfruitful things etc...

Next He revealed John 1:12 to me: "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God; even to those who believe in His name; who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of the will of God".

This means that His will is just for us to be His child. Imagine how a child lives, a child just depends on his father, so He just wants us to depend on Him. A child's role is just to receive. So our role is also just to receive. To receive HIs goodness and mercy, His blessings and inheritance.
Also, Hebrews 10:5-9 states where Jesus spoke,"Behold I have come to do your will, O God, " He takes aways the first that He may establish the second. By that we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

The first consist of sacrifices and offering, burnt offerings, and offering of sins (Hebrews 10:8) in order to receive HIs blessings, whereas the second is that we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Therefore, His will has already been accomplished by Jesus on the cross, that all our part is just to receive and walk by HIs wisdom, the prompting of His Holy Spirit which is within us.

This is the first cluster activity that I joined since its a night activity. I always skipped cluster activity caused its always in the daytime and they always go to places which are very hot. And when I mentioned that to Daddy God, He just created a night cluster activity which is like just for me.

Hort Park is actually a place where there is many kinds of flowers and there is this tree top walk which is a long pathway across the many trees. Actually this place is kinda of romantic. There is breeze swinging by our faces as we walk up and down the bridge. If your imagination is good enough, you will realise that you seems to be walking on air overseeing the buildings and trees.

We took photos on our journey up.

After that, we went to Harbourfront hawker centre and had supper. Had a nice time fellowshipping. =) Praise God.

This is the girl that I thought looks like Liyan, the way she behaves also looks like her. Haha..interesting...

This design is inspired by Window Vista. Expect a harvest of blessings that there won't be enough room to contain as you bring your tithes to your home church. For here mortal man receives, there the Lord receives.

After watching this movie, I thought that it was quite interesting. The human beings are all transported to the outer space living in a very robotic and technical world. Whereas, Earth was full of rubbish where Wall-E is supposed to do the clean up and there is no life on Earth. The human beings there are so absorbed with computer and automatization that there do not have any human interaction. Whatever they want, they just have to speak forth and robots will come and serve them. All they do is to lie on a resting chair and look into a screen. They talk to each other using the screen and all information are screened to update them of any news. They grew real fat since everything is done for them. Its pretty scary to think that humans may really end up like that one day. In fact, we are somewhat having such behaviour already. Just think how many hours we are facing the computer at home a day.

I thought that they did a good job trying to protray emotions using the robots namely Wall-E and Eve. Quite interesting. Yeah, its worth 3 1/2 star indeed.

This is my latest bible verse design. Know that where ever you are, be it crossing the road, working with back stabbers, God has given angels to guard over you. "Lest you set you foot onto a stone" means if there is any obstacle or accident, angels will rush to protect and bring you out of trouble. Be conscious of His protection.

Recently, done a survey around Clarke Quay about nightlife. I never really explore that area. But this time, I have the opportunity to walk around that area and explore. There are few interesting pubs such as one that is designed to be like a hospital called "Clinic". The concept is such that the sofas are actually like hospital beds and they drink from a drop. Wheelchairs are also there to be seated but few choose to sit in one though. If you ask me, I wont be in the least interested in going there. Why would I want to visualise myself in such an environment? Its refreshing concept but totally not my type.

Then I notice there is this club with long long queue. So I got a little curious and peeked inside. And lo and behold, I saw a whole crowd of people clapping their hands above their heads in a rythem while standing. And I thought that maybe the singer must be very pretty or something. To my amazement, its a fat lady with red tube dress and fur around her neck! It began to strike me that these people are wasting their time and money away in what is not even entertaining.

Compared to our church service, where people also stand and clap. With the differences that entrance is free, and the singers are gorgeous and handsome with beautiful annointed voice, where LIFE is present, with His LOVE embracing the people there. This singing and dancing is life to our souls and spirits. It has the power to heal and to create such peace and joy that cannot be satisfied throught those clubs.

Actually, the reason why people club is very simple. Its just their emptiness that exists in their hearts. To think that drinking can help to fill that emptiness and also the numbness that one gets when they are drunk. Or to express themselves through their dance etc. I was once like that but now I am saved. Now, I sing and dance in an environment where there is life and life more abundantly. In an environment where joy fills my heart whenever I worship. We are all given a choice, to choose between life or death. Choose LIFE.

Having said that, there are some who just want to visit these areas just to dress up and observe people. Not to forget that some who have to entertain their clients.

Nice ma..nice ma? Hehe... Stencil effect...

Supposed you see this ad in most places right? This product is the first product for Olay to create body wash. Well, I was actually doing a project on this product you see. Somehow I was tempted to purchase this since its like quite reasonable which is $8.10 for 532ml bottle. I do not have dry skin though, but thought that its good enough to try.

I bought the first one because it came in a box together with a puff so I can lather into lots and lots of bubbles with it. But ended up I don't really enjoy using the puff as it kinda of rough to my skin. I love the "buttery" smell a lot. The moment I put it onto the puff I love the smell. The second time I used it, I put directly onto my hand and I like the texture too. Its has more of cream form than liquid form but can lather into rich bubbles upon application. I love those with rich bubbles, makes me feel that I am really cleaning myself. The lather also create a kind of moisturizing effect. I wonder if its a psychological imagination, but for a moment before I wash off the bubbles, I felt that I am wrapped with water like that of the advert. A feeling that something is wrapping me.

And so what's the verdict after using it? Hmm... well, it did not leave a misty film of moisturizing content like what most people would imagine. They are being wash off completely! And yes, I do feel my skin more moisturized but felt such effects upon direct application on skin. And I smell GOOD...

Today I experience more of Daddy's God love for me. Remember I mentioned that I lost my umbrella in the train? So all things work together for MY GOOD. Praise the Lord.

If it had not been the lost of the umbrella, I could not have thought of buying a new umbrella. And also all along, with my previous umbrella, there are two things I really dislike. First is such that when it is wet, I cannot put directly into my bag for it will make other stuff wet. Secondly, there is this sharp edge that we have to press to close it that always hurt my finger. I really wonder why umbrellas are designed in such a manner....?!!!?

Therefore, on my way back from church, Mel and Angie accompanied me to buy a RED umbrella. Just as when I was thinking if it is too hot a colour.... the answer came later....

Btw, God really LOVES me. Was supposed to work as surveyor tonight. But, since it is Mid Autumn fest... I told God that I really don't feel like working. And then I called my supervisor. And volia... due to some reasons, I need not report for WORK!

So together with my family, we went to my aunt house to celebrate this festival. And nice home cooked food was whipped up and plus the wonderful mooncake from Orchard Hotel sponsored by Dad. And guess what, my aunt gave me a bag that have such a nice red colour. She said that she do not like the bag due to its huge size. And it happened to be RED! Which totally match my umbrella! And I am so BLESSED. All thanks to my aunt and JESUS....

THIS IS THE ANOINTED BAG and UMBRELLA

How much I felt HIS LOVE for ME....

Today is the day seems like I lost a lot of things. While in the MRT, I left my umbrella at my side and dozed off. I just walked out the train without it. Good thing it was already not raining. At that moment when I realised I forgot about it, I thought to myself that maybe God wanted me to have a nicer umbrella since that while umbrella was rather old already. But then, later in the day, I lost my beloved CJ7 that was given to me by my brother! =( Really feeling very sad la cause my brother never seems to buy something for me without me asking. I thought he was really sweet to buy me that handphone chain since he said that I always ended up buying for others without having it. =(

===========================

I don't know why, but I suddenly really enjoyed going to caregroup. Just felt so happy to be in the midst of my caregroup. Had a great time chatting with Ana at first, then got to know Vinni whom I suddenly realised looked and acted a bit like Liyan. Then while waiting for dinner time, spent time with June and the rest.

During the caregroup, Kai Ting is sharing about the story of 1 Samuel 22, 1 Chronicles 12:1-2, 16-22 and 38 - 40. It is about these 3D (distress, in debt, discontended) who came to David while he was still a fugitive. Upon following him, not long after, they became mighty man of valour attracting many capable solders and captains to join forces to defeat the enemies. They all believe in the vision of David, which is according to the Lord.

At my heart, the question of how can it be applied to our lives burnt intensely. Then KT said that when we simply heed what Ps Benjamin's sermon, we are heeding God's word. For what come from the mouth comes from the heart, and what comes from the heart comes from God's heart. And there is this point that when these 3D men follow the vision of David, they can't go back being the same. Imagine if you have won a war, everyone plays a part in the victory and they shall go back victorious and not in defeat and distress. The same applies to my life. If I follow the vision of God, I can't help but be transformed.

All along, it never crossed my mind that Fiona Xie had plastic surgery. I always thought that she looked really beautiful naturally. Until recently, I heard that Felicia Chin actually went for surgery therefore decide to look through Fiona Xie and found that she too had surgery.

Recently I have a new Primary 1 Korean student. I really believe this student is delivered to me by Daddy God. At first when I know that he is a Korean, I just accepted it because it did not really register into my mind that he is a Korean. I just felt a peace that tells me I can accept this student. I have learnt to follow the presence or the absence of peace to make certain decisions. Thats the best way for God to lead me.

On my way to the student's home, it suddenly striked me that I might have a hard time teaching him since he is a korean. How am I going to explain to him certain things? I certainly do not know Korean to translate the meaning to him. Thoughts that if I am not able to teach him, I might as well give up this student.

But, God is really great. To my surprise, this student is really smart. He practically knows everything under the Pri 1 book! He did lots and lots of exercises before I even come. Its just some sentence structure that I need to teach him. Things like verbs, nouns and adjectives.

Somehow I felt that kids nowadays are so much smarter. I do not know if because he is a foreigner therefore have such urge and thirst for knowledge or is it because kids nowadays are really becoming smarter and smarter.

Just want to thank Jesus for this student and let everything that I do be fruitful. Amen.

Went to Chor In's condo for BBQ to bid farewell to Chor In. Don't know what's wrong with me. Somehow just don't feel like talking other than with Mel, Vanessa and Huey. Just don't really feel right that day. Wonder is it because I missed church and missed the word that gives life. Or is it I know I still need to finish an executive report and not in the mood to chat?

After the BBQ, they wanted to go for clubbing. So I choose to go home ALONE. Yet, the Lord is with me and He just guide me back in the midst of the DARKNESS and got to the MRT! Its quite lonely to walk back alone with all the rest going to have fun. Yet, there is this peace that makes me feel I made the right choice.

Well, recently I have not been able to express myself in writings. Maybe because I felt that by speaking to the Lord, I felt less need to express myself. Moreover, some expression of thoughts and feelings are hard to be protrayed to people. Either that, or I do not really know how to protray my thoughts and feelings.

Although most of the time I felt that I express quite clearly of my likes and dislikes, yet there are times, I do not really know how to express. I somehow have this feeling that nothing happens even though I express or just do not find the need to express myself. Either that, people might not understand how I feel. Sometimes I wonder, the older we get, the harder it is to express our thoughts to others. Our thoughts got more complex, the level of understanding and maturity have to be high in order to understand my thoughts.

Which also makes me feel that our trust should not be in man (referring to human beings). For man fails, while if I put my trust on the Lord, He never fails. Yet, there are times I need a audible voice to speak to me. For there are times when you just want someone to listen to you and to give you a reply that will just soothe your heart and soul.

Yet again, I find this is getting harder. For its really difficult to find someone who will really willing to listen wholeheartedly to you. Though I am blessed with several people who are able to do so. Sometimes, its just the desire they have to listen to you that soothes your heart and soul.

Had a assignment at Kampong Glam and Geylang Serai recently due to the Hari Raya festival. Firstly, I felt that I am blessed to have this assignment. Always felt that there are things to learn in everything that I do. This time, having to interview the Malays who are there and to observe them, makes me realise a few things.

To be able to be in such close contact with them and interview them makes me realise few things. Sometimes, I really felt blessed to be able to be given the chance for studies and to be where I am and doing what I am doing. Because, there are really some people who do not have the opportunity to study or the culture and norms are such they live a defeated life.

It just got me thinking what is really living. The way I see them, its not that it is wrong. Its just sets me thinking. Why is it that they are able to gather in such a hot, stuffy, place and gather together for so long doing nothing but staring at each other or chit chatting. Is it really the way they live their life? It is really really packed up to the extent that there are endless people streaming and the seats are constantly occupied.

Just felt that soooooooooo many souls are lost like that. Lost because they are more capable than to do the things they are doing. Imagine how much they can contribute to the govenment, families and themselves if they are able to tap into their potential. Easily thousands and thousands of people are idling around. And its seems that is their only entertainment place.

The worst part is since this is their culture, and birds of the same feather flock together, than everyone will have the same lifestyle. They have no aim in live, lost their interest of things, struggling just to survive. So living only means having money to eat, have babies, do chores? Its like, life is wasted. Not being able to do the things you like, losing the ability to have an opinion of certain things and conforming to the way people do, letting others control your life- losing the meaning of LIFE.

In comparision, this makes me feel so blessed, I just somehow wonder, has God placed me there to create a change? To do something that will renew the minds of these people? They are like... lost sheep, sheep without a Shepherd.
