I'm Back..

Its being awhile since I last blogged.. So, let me talk about my day today..

Woke up late!!! Doze off when I was suppose to get up.. Jia Lat.. I was late for HopeKids.. Luckily was able to be on time at least for the main that needed my help with..

After HopeKids, just when I was about to leave.. Elton stopped me and ask if I would like to join them for lunch.. I thought, why not..? So I joined the HopeKids people for lunch.. I had no idea what I was in for.. It was going to be an expensive meal that will burn a hole in my pocket..

$24 per person in the end when the bill came.. A bit too much for a lunch I guess for my personal taste.. But I guess it was worth it.. Got to spend time we the other teachers of HopeKids, had a talk with Hong Teck while walking to Takka.. And most importantly, there were the kids around.. Haha.. Throughly enjoyed this lunch with them, it was a great time of fellowship..

The first Sunday of the New Year..

Its Sunday.. That means..

HopeKids!!!

Haha!!!

Went for HopeKids service just now.. Met up with my partner for the year, Sandra.. Seem like quite a nice lady.. I bet we will be able to work together just fine..

Had a talk with Sandra and Wan Yue after the service, and I discovered that there was still much for me to learn.. Some of the things I did was not the wisest thing I could do according to them..

I was thinking of this on my way home just now.. I almost felt bad about it.. But God came in just in time and reveal to me this..

He does not focus on wanting us to carry out our duty flawlessly all the time, what He is looking for is someone that will carry out the duty faithfully all the time..

This vision from God really comforted my soul and calmed my spirit.. Indeed, God is looking for willing and faithful people.. And in this new year I want to carry out my duties faithfully for His greater purpose..

Another thing today was that when I was having lunch with Jenny after the service, she asked me about how I was going to celebrate my 21st birthday come July 20th this year.. I did not know how to answer her.. I really did not know.. What I was thinking inside my head was that 21 years old is the "official" adult age.. And I've come so far already, and I going to be a "official" adult soon.. I really was just at a blank.. I guess I pretty much am still in a blank too..

Time flies..

The only thing I can think of now is to treasure every waking moment of it..

YO!!! New Year New Spirit Level..!

1st of all,

Happy New Year!!!

Yay!!!

And for this new year, my 1st blog entry will talk about Spiritual Stamina..

Being the start of the new year, we can look forward to a whole year's worth of adventure and unique experiences..

However, be prepared, because not everything is going to be a bed of roses, without the thorns (Very important)..

It is in these kind of situations that we are being tested.. And it is in these kind of situation where our Spiritual Stamina would be tested..

At times, we might feel down-cast, angry or even tired of different things for certain reasons.. But we do about it?

Do we move on and strive for what is ahead or do we break-down and hang in a state of ungodliness..?

In this new year.. It is very important to keep God in the center of our lives and let Him be our fuel.. Testings and temptations will certainly come, but if we turn to God and let Him fuel our engines, we will be able to go further.. With God at the center, the stamina of our spirits will flourish..
