Loved today! had my fave macdonald's hotcakes for breakfast, spent time with my beloveds: ah gong while on errand, best pal over breakfast and nuaing, dear sister in Christ over breakfast, my jc good fren over a cup of coffee and also a bro in Christ trying to settle one knotty prob...

I like spending time like that.. but i still love to spend my time serving God and His ppl jus like sat, physically tired but Spirit filled the most.
There is always something in store for me to learn and share whenever im found in times like these, i always go away satisfied and happy.

F.A.I.T.H!!!!!

Missed the saturday sermon, but a sister shared with me something that she caught and remembered, FAITH - Forsaking All, I Trust in Him!

When i first heard it, i was hmm... so true, but as these words keep flashing itself across my mind, i know God has something to say about that too. I jus finished one of my new books that i bought on sunday, by Dr Bill Trasher - Believing in God for His Best! The Lord used this book to speak loudly what He is telling me.

Its a book about waiting upon God, trusting in God for His best in relationships, but as i read it, the Lord opened my eyes to see that the principles of being contented and trusting in Him goes a long long way in all areas of my life.

Dr Bill said, to trust in God, is to rest in God's will totally, spending all energy unto serving Him, loving Him, pursuing Him whilst we are single and available to. He who knows us best, knows our need and will attend to us. We need not take things into our own hands,ya know what i mean.
One other thing he wrote caught me sharply when he said that we may unknowingly idolised the things that r good by thinking that when we have that thing (it could be a spouse, career whatever), we will be satisfied cos we no longer fixed our eyes on God to be satisfied (summarised).That to me was new!

Have faith, live a life of faith, How? --- it means forsaking all i trust in Him, my Provider, my beautiful God, it also means learning to rest in His will totally and allow Him to lead and guide my way. Still, i have to know what i want so that when the Lord reveals, i will know what to look out for in all areas of my life.

On my way home from my best pal's home on monday night, i uttered a long long prayer to my lovely Saviour, and i felt so loved and secure like never before, i know He's listening to His princess pray :) He is a God whom i will forsake all to trust in Him cos His love is just too much to forsake.

Have a blessed day!
(*like to know my awesome Saviour? jus give me a call! I will show u how.. :) )

Holidaes holidaes holidaes......

In the mood for blogging.... another one for today.

Threee cheers for school holidaes!!! hip hip hurrays! Been looking so forward to this december holidays.... jus like the song sings, its been in my head for the past few weeks.."I'm leaving on a jet plane.." cant wait to get thru the customs, step onto the carpet of the departure hall of terminal1 onto the carpet of the aeroplane....

Jus the thought of it brings smiles to my face, n brightens up my day :) I love travelling, i love spending time with close buddies who goes with me, i love taking flight off to another place, not because home is no good, its just that each time i go out and come back, i see, learn, appreciates and awed by the things that God has made in other places. I also come back each time thanking God for the wonderful home that He has placed me in.

Though i will miss the weather, the sceneries, the food of the countries i visited, there is still no place like home. No need to worry about typhoons, chilly weather, breakdown of transport system etc... But i still love jetting of once in a while :) This year, im off to kanga land for one of my firstever 18 days free and easy trip, first time flying alone. My next target destination is Taiwan and China( Harbin). Would love to revisit Seoul and Tokyo again... cant seem to get enuff of them.. hee, esp during autumn ( but that will have to wait till im no longer a teacher, otherwise, "its winter all the way")

If u r one of my kind, can jio to travel if u r in need of travelling mates BUT i can only jet off in june and dec... other than that... heee ( job hazards)

Soft Spot

I know!!! its my once a month blogging again.. :( no excuses this time

Went to integrity and alby warehouse sale today, and bombed a hundred bucks on books again, and that is after under extreme self control. Keep telling myself "lian, its enuff, no more buying... if not u r going to graze the grasslands with the sheeps when u hit kanga land" and humph.. i really really struggled at the titles to choose and buy.

Yesh, books are one of my many soft spots, the rest are concerts,dramas,travelling,cartoons etc etc... many galfrens have soft spots for pretty clothes, shoes, bags, not that i dunt, its just that im pretty okie with jus window shopping.

But when it comes to BOOKS! Oh My God!!! How i wish i have all the money in the world to buy all the titles that moved my heart home and devour them in days! Thank God for inventing libraries, for people who love books and own them, cos thru them, i saved lotsa money..hurhur

Though i cant wait to lay my hands on the books i bought, i also have dozens of drama vcds waiting for me by the tv... hehehe.... Tons of things that r tugging at moi's heart.. Reading the books, watching vcds, reconstructing this boring blogging space of mine ( jus learnt from a fren how to construct it, still exploring and trying to get a hang of it), packing to fly on a jet plane etc etc etc

And yes, promised a sister (ya know who ya r) to post this up today when we went to the warehouse together..
