Let man be man and let God be God

People expectation toward the professions that we’re working in is really high.

Some expect us to be a saint
Some expect us to be a superman
Some expect us to be a maid
Some expect us to drop down everything that we’re handling when they called in
Some even expect us to be god

We’re only human. Why not let human be human and let God be God? Expect a lot from us just because we work in a church where sinners attend?

Interesting…

** Let God be God **

Everyday prayer

May You help me to see You clearer
Walk with You closer
And love You dearly
Day by day….

** I pray… **

Enjoy working…

I still remember vividly when it comes to weekend, I am so happy. But before Monday is here, I’ll be starting to repeat the word, ‘tomorrow I have to work ooooo……..’

I used to hate Monday a lot even when I were schooling. I started to hate Monday when I reach the age of 14. During my teenager life, friends are like the most important thing in life. It seems like we all can’t live without friends around us. Haha… Thinking it back, it’s kinda funny because we can live without anyone. Without anyone, life still has to move on.

In my teenager period, I have bunch of great church friends and childhood friends but not school friends. That’s why I hate Monday. I hate going back to school but I love to go to church because all my good friends are in the church but we studied in different school.

This kind of life last… last for quite a while. The same goes to work for me last time. I really hate Monday…

Later on, I found out that I started to stop hating Monday and stop repeating myself that statement after I’ve change to my current job now.

To put aside all the high expectation, never ending works and stresses all the time, I think I really like my job. I don’t complain when I have to stay up late to get things done, I don’t hate Monday anymore and I enjoy every small little thing that I do.

Wow… I guess I really like my job. Interesting….

** Enjoy my work **

Wish to see....Animals...

This morning, I was talking to Danny about animals that I wanted to see since I was a little kids….

First of all, I loves Wombat… they are cute.. Saw them before ones when I was 12 and ever since, I wish to see them again.
2. Sheep… Baby sheep - To reflect what the bible really means.
3. Llama – Because of the cartoon ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’
4. Meerkat – Because of the cartoon ‘Lion King’
5. Panda – Because I see them on news about how pity they are
6. Platypus – Last time study about this kind of animal
7. Penguin – Not really a fans but I still wish to see them if they are pretty

So far, only can think of 7... Maybe there is more. Big fans...Big fans...

** Big fans **

I found it…

To buy something special for someone special is really a hard thing to do. I always find difficulties in buying stuff for her. Not because she is bossy but she seems like has everything already. Although she always said it’s not about the gift, but it’s about the heart but I still find difficulties in searching one thing that suits her for any event.

After I browse through a friend’s blog, the first thing that came into my mind is…. At last, I found something that I can buy.
Loves to see her dress up with jewelry on. Then I will tell myself, see… I knew she looks pretty.

The prices are crazy… I literally got myself a shock when I know how much it cost. I shall find that shop when time has come. I feel so good when I finally found something. Just hope that it looks as beautiful as it is when I tried it on.

** At last….. **

SOMA weeks

We’ve been super busy for the pass weeks because of SOMA (Sharing Of Ministries Abroad). Preparation for it is always the busiest moment.

Let the pictures speaks more than word. Thanks to dearly friend of mine for her photo which I actually stole it.
SOMA notice board - when people come in, the first thing they see is this board. Then they will be guided to the registration counter.
The gang that try to solve unseen problem and plan the worst come to worst solution while trying to relax and release some "situation stress".

Awesome respond....

Consecration of the Assistant Bishop Service - Bishop Melter Tais (A humble man of God)

Continue with celebration dinner of the Assistant Bishop in the Magellan Sutera.


The whole conference is a success though we have rooms to improve. Due to busyness and trying to make things work, i have to confess that i didn't really get the message but i will buy the recording disc to listen. The preachers are awesome.

I have a great time fellowshipping with an old friend of mine which we seldom hang out because both of us have our own church and stuff to be madly busy about. Through this conference, I enjoy hanging with her. She offers great help. She has always been a great friend. There to listen and there to help. People that know her will want to treat her with lots of love because she is such a great friend.

Today's Word from Heaven

God said, “You are my beautiful maiden. I have wonderfully and fearfully made you. I form every part of you with care and I love you with an everlasting love.”

[I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well – Psalm 139:14]

** Today's word **

Today’s dress…

Today I get some compliment that I am wearing a nice dress.
Yeah!!!!
All Credit goes to my best friend because she bought me this dress. She is always caring and loving. She has a great taste also…

Today is my second time wearing it because the dress is a bit short.

But I still love it. Love the dress and love the giver even more.

** Love my best friend **

So happy for them...

Oh my… Because he has cut his hair and we seldom see each other, I nearly don’t recognize him when I first get his mms. Oh my... Have to 3G with him more.
Congratulation for the newly weds. Happy and excited for them even we are far apart. We’ve been talked about them since last week. Hahahaha…. They are truly meant for each other.

Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate. – Mark 10:9

** Congratulation!!! **

To get well soon…

Have to eat healthy…
Eat medicine on time…
Pamper myself a bit…Hehe…

I’m better now. At least the medicine from doc work and I hope that today I don’t have to carry tissues around.

** Getting better **

Flu...

Ha Chu!!!!!

Flu again... Oh man... I am confuse that i am flu or sinus. This keep coming back and the worst is, i overslept this morning because of the medicine that i ate last night and this morning, i still carry lots of tissues around. Oh my... The medicine is not working. Gosh... I guess i really need to pay a visit to the doctor's room.

Ah chu..... Oh.... Headache now... Lord, i cannot sick. SOMA is coming and i have no time to sick...

** Sneeze **

Another stressful day!

When I get stress, I draw and I draw during meetings… meetings that never end.

Work is getting more and more and I just don’t know should start from where.

** Stressful day **

Brown & Pink!

Today is match day...
My shirt and skirt matches my shoes color....

** Yeah!!! Brown & Pink **

Learning to love

Everyone will agree that love is the greatest gift of all. Some quotes said that to be able to love and to be love in return is the sweetest feeling. God is love… and God place a deep desire for us to receive love and to love others in our life.

But love is also the most difficult lesson to learn. As I drank my coffee and have a few biscuit for breakfast this morning, my mind started to mediates on yesterday sermon. These past few weeks, we’ve been studying the book of 1 John. Repeated sermon is shared and all summarize into one word – LOVE.

When you have everything and yet no Love, it’s equals to nothing. Interesting isn’t it?

Sitting there and listening to the sermon, a friend of mine said, “We read this passage before”. I replied, “Ya, 1 John is about love and love is the most difficult thing to learn on earth”. Then she said, “Ya, and you still love Danny that much.” I paused for awhile and said, “Ya, I still love him so much”.

Someone said that to love someone that you love is easier than to love someone that you don’t like at all. As for me, I think that to love someone that I love so much is difficult and to love someone that I don’t like at all is also difficult and I concluded it as, love is never easy.

I used to be someone that loves to share my thought. But as I grow, I started to be share less, talk less and even love less. When you experience pain before, it’s not that easy to just give your heart to someone because you learn to protect yourself and be defensive. The same goes to me. I find myself stop sharing when I started to realize that when I shared, people start to conclude me the way they thought. Even with the closest people in my heart, I seldom shared. With not sharing, I started to slowly withdraw myself from love. Love is the last opinion I will take in the whole relationship or friendship. These few weeks sermon has really gives me a big challenge and struggle.

** May God give courage **

Lord, have mercy….

One fine day…

A colleague walks into my room and we started to discuss on work. Out of no where, I asked her a question. Who is the hardest guy/gal that you have ever worked with?

She thinks for a while and replied;
Well… No one.. By God’s grace, everyone is quite easy to work with. The most difficult one to work with is I, myself.

I totally agreed… Sometimes, not other people that caused me problem in working together but it’s myself that stopping me from it.

Many times in life, we all know what need to do, what we should do, how should we do it and why we must do it. But how many people will really do what they know they should do and do what they need to do? Knowing what need to do and doesn’t apply to what you should be doing equals to not knowing it at all.

** Lord, have mercy… **

Healthy Week

It’s a healthy week for me this week while I continue to try to reduce the roundness of me.

** May God gives wisdom... **

Some people write to inspired

I love to read people’s blog. Some people will write their blog differently while others are writing their blog just like a daily routine thing about what they wear, where they go, what they eat and what happen on that day. I seldom read those kinds of blog but I do read also.

I realize that from the day I started to write blog, I started also to enjoy reading two or three blog of my friends. They share their journey and sometimes, it inspired me to think more than what eyes can read.

All the while, I’ve been following a blog of a friend. It’s really amazed that I started to read while he just started to work in the society to he started to change job and he change another job again. Then he planed his wedding, on his wedding, after his wedding, change job again and now into different chapter of life- being a father.

Reading his blog inspire me in many different ways. Need not many pictures or colors.

** Just a few line of word, will do **

Smiling….

Today, a dear friend of mine gave me this out of sudden…

My first reaction is… Aw.. Where you get that and who gave that to you? I’m happy for her because someone gave her such a huge chocolate bar.

Low and behold, she said, this is for you. I bought this for you. I was so happy… and jumped like a kids in 5 years old and I give her a big hug. Thought back about my reaction, I was a bit embarrassed of my reaction in front of all my kids while I am teaching them tambourine. It’s like I am about their age. Haha…

Anyhow, the blessings made my day. Not only this but before that, another friend gave me another pack of chocolate as well.

Today I am so blessed. I thank God for a great day and He knows how to make me smile. If someone said God is not a good God, I will never believe that because with He always knows how to put a smile on my face when I need it the most.

** He put a smile on my face**

God my provider

This month has been a tight month for me because of overused what I have budgeted. But God is always good. He provides my need. Mom sends a pack of food here and it’s more than enough for this month. While unpacking the stuff, grateful I thank God for a great Mom and for His love. God is always faithful. Thank Him for great parents, caring family.

And... I got Mango from Mom...Yeah!!!

** Family is the best **

Sanctuary

When my world was in darkness
You spoke Your Word, Night turned into day
Your beauty filled this place
When my world stood in silence,
You filled my heart, with songs that never end
Forever I will praise

Pre Chorus:
To think that the universe
Could not withhold Your Glory
You choose to live in me, I’m so amazed

Chorus:
And I worship You, Lord, My life in You restored
Here is my heart, Make it Your sanctuary
For nobody else but Jesus only You

Bridge:
You are faithful and true, glorious Lord
All my life, it is You I adore
You’ve touched my soul, Completed my world
I surrender to You

When this song was sung, I stood before Him with tears running down my cheek. I am really amazed, really grateful that I have no word to express but feelings and tears. I am amazed that He has chosen me. I am amazed that He loves me with tremendous love that I have no word but tears.

I always tell Him that I couldn’t feel His love… I couldn’t walk on without His love. I don’t know how to love without His love. Through this song, there are only tears that fall.

God loves me with an everlasting love that no word can describe. I am grateful…

** A simple song yet I felt it deep inside me **
