Faith, a muscle to be exercised

A 3-year-old by now. A little life. How do I forget. 17 Nov 2001

Sis's 21st today. kewl. kewl.

And huge celebrations this weekend -- D&D, Youth Cell Outing, Stanchart Run, Sis's BD party. Seriously think I SHOULD be taking the following Monday off instead.

Mum says granddad misses those times at S'goon Gardens, who doesn't. I miss my grandma's cooking...

69 Lentor -- over 3mil on that one -- or a 1.6 mil. Too much. But literally a stone's throw away.

We like seeing houses. Even at S'goon Gardens. Wonder if I could ask to walk into my houses where I used to stay and tour it for a while.

Mum's good at psychology. She knows I'd wanna do something for them. Haha. Gan-cheong spider, no less.

I remembered about how Mum would accompany me do art pieces and paint... albeit that they are tips fr the encyclopedia... haha. And she supports my singing... or cause she likes the idea of being Sing Ma? haha.

Met up with SS again yesterday too. So fun. haha...

Lord, I pray for BOTH provisions AND time.

I'm at the edge of breakthrough. Faith, is, to be exercised, as I took out my bible, and read a verse to Mum. And I could actually find the verse! haah. In Ephesians...

Faith = hope and certainty. NOT uncertainty.

Luke 17: 1-10
1. Start Right and Get the Faith -- Choose to Worship
2. Stay Committed and Grow the Faith -- Complete the Work
3. Speak Boldly and Humbly -- Check your Words

Faith grows when you finish the tasks He's given.

17 Nov 1999, 17 Nov 2005, 17 Nov 2007

Do you remember where you were on 17 Nov 1999?

If you are at the beach - you are at the right place!

Watching the Leonids!

"God knows.
When you are tired and discouraged from fruitless efforts...
God knows how hard you have tried. When you've cried so long and your
heart is in anguish... God has counted your tears.

If you feel that your life is on hold and time has passed you by...
God is waiting with you.

When you're lonely and your friends are too busy even for a phone
call...
God is by your side.

When you think you've tried everything and don't know where to
turn...
God has a solution.

When nothing makes sense and you are confused or frustrated...
God has the answer.

If suddenly your outlook is brighter and you find traces of hope...
God has whispered to you.

When things are going well and you have much to be thankful for...
God has blessed you.

When something joyful happens and you are filled with awe.. God has
smiled upon you.

When you have a purpose to fulfill and a dream to follow...
God has opened your eyes and called you by name.

Remember that wherever you are or whatever you are facing...
God Knows."

Lovely day - cos Daddy knows you're feeling down.
problems solved. things turn out well. peeps become reasonable. even the cinema was playing Cranberries b4 the show.
the rainbow has appeared. the rain is over, sun is shining,

"How do you talk to an Angel, how do you hold her close to where you are.
how do u talk to an Angel, it's like trying to catch a falling star..."

17 Nov 2005 -- beginning of a new phase, a new life. Everyday.
17 Nov 2007, like what WL says, I just need to find my groom. haha.

There is a time for everything. In His Timing.

A new song. A picture of this land.

The real questions of life

Why would you score 88% in an exam but don't feel a thing?
How would you feel when you want to watch a movie but can't?
Why would you choose to be home on a Saturday nite?
How do we not love oneself and choose to eat less and exercise when we need to?
How do you deal with a loved one who says don't know most of the time, and doesn't want to learn, or seemingly doesn't care?
Who do you look for when you are besieged with problems or troubles?
How do you take care of tears that surge cos you don't feel nothing is important anymore?
Why are there always times you feel you're falling behind?
And how do you feel victorious without feeling arrogant?
How can you learn without falling?
How do you deal with fear that you'll never be who you wanna be, or who God wants you to be?
Or the feel that you can do so much more, but seemingly never fulfilled?
How do you deal with wanting to know the answers to life -- but nobody seems helpful?
What do we do to choose love instead of hate or discrimination?
When should you start looking for help?
Where do you start looking for the past you've lost?
Should you even start or ask for something better?
How do you crush feelings of being snuffed?
Could you have lost the will or fire to fly no more?

These, are the real questions.

Restless Spirit -- Mugging and Watching TV

Popped out of room... trying to cure a bout of restlessness.

Saw the new Soo Kee jewellery advertisement -- it's nice, until I saw the huge diamond. haha. Do I have something against diamonds -- I shouldn't right?

Just that it seems to go contrary against what was presented -- stars, peace, huge expanse of land, "lying down on green pastures", relationships... then the huge big diamond, or am I just envious I don't have one? haha.

It just seems so ... DUH. Everything seems right. Then that diamond -- which embodies work, strive, greed, money...

I understand what the ad is trying to say -- sealing that promise of a relationship, peace, life together forever...

BUT just looks wrong. *bleah* Hmmm.

OH. And I love the new coke commercial. Hip. In. Even though it's thot it's good enough to wash toilet bowls with. keke.

I love multi-task.

*really?* like real. :)

Boredom, a detestable word in my dictionary

I want to be the man that I was made.

Before boredom sets in, and ruins the beautiful skins of responsibility, and trustworthiness -- yet, a gift?

It takes courage to be a prude.

How to be a kewl cat and run after Him?

Which side of the coin are you looking at?

Throw caution to the wind, and suffer wreakage upon the cold shores.

Embrace wine and song, and soon city walls will come tumbling down.

What do you choose to be, unworthy one.

Blaze a path... one so bright, none else can emulate.

TV -- a necessary evil?

For a lover of advertisements, MTVs, documentaries... it might sound strange... but I think television shld probably be banned. It mainly kills intellect, and prob correlates with worsening familial relationships... still think it's a necessary evil? Grr.
