How do you feel?

As I started to distribute our wedding invitation and I realize that many people ask me, “how do you feel?” I gave a very short and fast answer without thinking much, I said, “stress”. Some people will look at me and feel for me while some will give me the impression that, what for need to stress? Just enjoy… I find it a bit annoyed that people kept asking me that question but at the same time, I sit myself down and go into my emotions and ask myself, how do I feel as the date is nearer?

I think when Danny and I talked personally about the date is nearer, time is shorter, we feel very excited, happy, can’t wait and butterfly in the stomach because we went through a long way before this day is here. But when someone else asks me, I think I found it stressful because people around me are still giving suggestions and comments. Not that they are not good comments and suggestions but sometimes, I felt it is too much.

In this whole preparation, I realise that deep inside me, I just know that some friends when you ask them, they will help you with all their heart. Some will reject. Because I do not want to assume and I still asked nonetheless and at the end, it was what I expected. It is really hard for me to ask for favour because facing rejection is really not a very good feeling. With that, I rather do everything myself if I can than to ask for a favour.

Last night I have some time to spend at the Lo’s house while doing my DIY décor. Both Debra and Daniel wanted to help so much that they kept asking me, can they help. To not disappoint them, I taught them how to do it. They stood there, tried very hard and finally finished one and showed it to me and ask, “Jenny, very nice, right?” with full of confident. I said, yes… Very nice…

I was a bit reluctant to let them try in the beginning because I thought at the end of the day, I have to redo everything and that is even more time consuming but I was wrong. Both of them made it with all their heart and it is very nice. Because they are kids and their determine hearts are not as strong as adult, they help me to make 3 paper flower and they said, they are tired and they went off. But when they are doing it that time, I looked at them and thought; this is really nice that they try their very best to make the paper flower just to help us.

On my way home, I was reminded that God must be very pleased when we try our very best to do things for Him. At the end of the days, I think what matter most is our heart to Him.

The 5th Year...

It has been 5 amazing years. This year will be the last year we celebrate being ‘in a relationship’ anniversary. Next year onward, we will celebrate the anniversary of our marriage.

The date is nearer and our hearts are pounding rapidly… Feeling so excited and nervous and stress at the same time.

But we are glad that we are together and it has been 5 beautiful years. It’s really by God’s grace that we are where we are today. Couldn’t thank Him enough for what God has for us.

** God willing, we will grow old together **

Sometimes...


Sometimes out of no where, I wish that my best friend is with me... Sometimes, she will drives me crazy but most of the times, she help me to solve most of the things.

** I just miss her around **

Counting down: 56 days

I’ve been counting days since 2 weeks ago to make sure that I am doing
things progressively and making sure that I will be slimmer to my dream size.
As for today, we have another 56 days to go. Every day I deduct the days, I have all kinds of feeling. Excited, nervous, freaking out, happy, can’t wait…. But I want to thank God for his grace that things are progressing well. I got my gown but it’s too big… I didn’t react like I thought. I find myself more calm and peaceful knowing that eventually things will be alright nearer the time.

So, instead of freaking out, we try to find some solutions. With God at our side, both Danny and I know that everything will be alright because He is in control.

We also went for medical check up and doc said we are alright. Both of us are happy and we will have beautiful babies together…

With the grace of God, we just have to enjoy these 56 days more before we tie the knot.

** Fifty six days to go **

Sovereignty of God

Yesterday I watched this trailer movie title, ‘The Vow’ that based on a true story. In this movie, it’s about how a married couple keep their vow in front of God for each other even though the wife has lost her memory about her husband. The husband put extra effort to make the wife fall in love with him again.

As I wonder about the movie at the same time desperately wanted to watch, I am very amazed of God’s sovereignty. God can just take away our memory like that and when we do not have our memory, we are totally another person. With no past memories, the person has a new choice to choose who he/she wants to be, who his /her friend is and how he/she would like to live. But losing part of your memory does sound scary.

With pondering about that, I am again being reminded the sovereignty of God and how powerful and strong God is. We have a choice to choose things that we want, the path that we need to take, the one that we fall in love. There are something that we are not given a choice but to trust God’s sovereignty that He will give us the best and believe that He always love us.

Therefore, Jenny Liau, you must remember that the Lord said - For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. – Jeremiah 29:11

Freak out…

Sometimes in the middle of work, I will stunt for awhile and it feels like my heart has stop beating awhile and started to find myself catching for breath. It do freaks me out a bit when time pass so fast and I feel like I am catching up with time.

Exactly 4 more months from now will be our big day and seems like still a lot to prepare. I am not slim enough, skin not good enough, work is starting to pile up as well and the calendar date is filling up. I have not got my gown, have not talk to the florist, have not find the caterer, have not reserve hotel, have not got confirm of some of the small small things. Oh dear…. May God be my help.

Happy New Year again by the way… Glad that it’s a new year, new start, new resolution and hopefully, new chapter of my life.

End of the year

This is the 4th year that I celebrate Christmas in All Saints’ Cathedral. This year Christmas was wonderful. I thank God that with His grace, the dance team is so much stronger with the limited practices and time that we have. With a few steps of guidance, they able to choreograph and perform such a beautiful dance… I am very glad… All glory be to God.


Other than Christmas Eve event, I am grateful also that this is the second year we spent Christmas together and more to come. Of course this also the last year that we spend it as single and next year, we will be spending Christmas as a newly married couple.

With God’s blessing, we went to have a beautiful and tasty buffer lunch at Lee Meridien Hotel. It gave us a glimpse of honeymoon feel. Hehehe…


After that, our staff have a short retreat to Manukan Island. Though the island is not as pretty as Mataking and it’s like no way to compare to Mataking, we also enjoy the time there.


I guess that’s a good way to end our 2011 with lots of happening stuff in these two months.

It’s been a month of wedding, retreats and lots of practices

The madness started a week before children worship conference… Everyone was busy practicing and giving the best to children worship conference and praying the hardest so that the children able to encounter God.

After that, Danny & I went to our dearly best friend wedding… I was a beautiful wedding… Everything was perfect...

Soon after the wedding in KL, we have a short break to search for the right ring, get whatever stuff that we need, spent some time at home and spent some time with our friends..

Came back to KK and the next day, we proceed to Kokol for English Staff Retreat & Planning for next year. It was a great break. We have some time doing nothing, laugh, play and plan ahead for next year.

Back to KK again and I have to prepare myself to Kokol again to support the Clergy wives retreat. I have a great time there as well. Being refreshed in spiritual, mental and emotional… Refocus my direction and purpose of life and continue to pursue on. Make some friends, learn more about marriage and parenting. Laugh non-stop and also learn some cooking skill.

By the time I got back down to KK, Christmas is just two weeks away and I have to start with Christmas practices. So, this two weeks, has been going out to practices, carolling, gaya street and shopping for some Christmas gifts.

Overall, I have a great time away and coming back. Excited and nervous for next year… And sometimes, I got a shock by realising I only have 4 more months to go. So, that’s the latest update me….

Office attire

Recently, our office has appointed one pastor to be the fashion coordinator. Her job is basically informing us what we should wear to work and what we should not and also what is the standard cloth to wear as a professional worker.

So, this does give some of us some headache. Therefore, I shall start getting a shopping checklist to change some of my cloth inside my wardrobe.

Checklist No 1:
I should get a white shirt. I think I look pro in a white shirt… Or maybe, that’s the standard professional dress code.

Checklist No 2:
Perhaps I will consider a formal dress

Checklist No 3:
I think lady in vest is really nice… I am thinking to get one if I can find a nice one

Checklist No 4:
I should really get a belt..

Checklist No 5:
Perhaps a formal skirt/pant…

I think so far, this is enough… So, prayerfully the Lord will provide..

Guide your heart

The human heart is the vital organ that pumps blood and oxygenates your body. When it doesn’t function properly, your body doesn’t function properly. Doctors encourage exercise and a nutritious diet to keep your heart fit and healthy. In the Bible, the heart is also considered the center of thought and feeling. It is so important that God cautions you to guard it above all else, because your heart filters everything that happens and clogged with all kinds of foulness that settles inside-bitterness, rage, impure thoughts. A dirty heart can no longer tell the good from the harmful and allows hurt and heartache to enter. When you keep your heart pure and clean, it can block the toxins of sinful desires and thought that threaten your spiritual health.

Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your hearts.
1 John 5:21

** Guard my heart **
