He Wrote Me a Love Note
He pen it with the clouds, on the boundless sky.


I've decided to take a break from the notes, after what seems like a thousand hours. Haha, I'm already losing my concentration and it feels like if I go on, I'll just die from the toxic emitted by those evil looking paper.

And no, I'm not skiving, just taking a breather ;)

This naughty thing I'm facing right now has been distracting me every other minute. Haha, my itchy fingers have just got to switch the songs, play a game of solitaire or two. And it has brought me this far, tapping on this keyboard just for you! (Okay, that's a lousy excuses)

Anyway, I've been faithfully reading Max Lucado's Come Thirsty and yes, for the second time in history, Carmen actually finished a book in her free will :D Besides liking his writing style, the very content of the book touched my heart and taught me a great deal. So I, for once, highly recommend this book to you!

Extracted from the last chapter of the book; If God Wrote You A Letter

Dear Child of mine,

Are you thirsty? Come and drink. I am the One who comforts you. I bought you and complete you. I delight in you and claim you as my own, rejoicing over you as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride. I will never fail you or forsake you.

Trust in me always. I am the eternal Rock, your Shepard, the Guardian of your soul. When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown! when you walk through the fire of oppresion, you will not be burned up; the fires will not consume you.

So don't worry, I will never tire or sleep. I stand beside you. The angel of the Lord encamps around you. I hide you in the shelter of my presence. I will go ahead of you, directing your steps and delighting in every detail of your life. If you stumble, you will not fall, for I hold you by the hand. I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.

I throw my arms around you, lavish attention on you, and guard you as the apple of my eye. I rejoice over you with great gladness. My thoughts of you cannot be counted; they outnumber the grains of sand! Nothing can ever seperate you from my love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Your fears for today, your worries for tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep my love away.

Give me your burdens; I will take care of you. I know how weak you are, that you are made of dust. Give all your worries and cares to me, because I care about what happenes to you.

Remember I am at hand. Come to me when you are weary and carry heavvy burdens, and I will give you rest. I delight in you, and I can be trusted to keep my promises. Come and drink the water of life.

Your Maker, Your Father
God


When I came across this, it begin to remind me that I serve a faithful God, a God whose love overwrites my guilt and shame, and in Him, I find freedom and amazing grace.

It's Sunday, Jeremy's birthday today. Just in case you were wondering, he's my (wacky) youth pastor. He was preaching at Wesley today on Chairs (right, Marcus?) and when Marc mentioned to me about it, I recall on how I answered the altar call for the very same message and decided that I wasn't going to be lukewarm, anymore and never again. So here I am today, 'hot' for the One who loves me.

Along this journey, I stumbled and fell a countless times. This limited mind can never comprehend His free-flow love, and how His faithful arms never left me. A thousand times I failed, a thousand times He forgave. When I was at wits end, desperate, there He yields His ears toward my cries. I don't need science to tell me God doesn't exist, I am a testimony of His existence. And even science points toward His wonderful creation; the galaxy, the way our body works. I stand this day, tall and strong declaring, there's no one like my God! :)

My lifelong goal? To hear these words when I step into eternity, 'Well done thy good and faithful servant'.

Last Friday, the net had a pot luck, and thank God, the outcome went beyond my wildest dreams. We had a total of 20, out of which, 9 were visiting. But I pray, that we wouldnt just stop there! Although there wasn't any sharing, I pray that God will continue speaking to the individual hearts and that we, as a net would be faithful in our following up.

Finally, school is taking a break! Okay, it's not exactly a break. I still have e-learning assignments and common test to study for. But school's going virtual, so yay! And did I tell you, I did up a study schedule, thanks to someone, and I'm just hoping that I'll be faithful to stick it through:D

Projects are Evil

I haven't told you, have I? About the crazy projects I've had since the start of the school term. Every module carries at least one project, for some, they're major. And so that explains why I haven't been able to update as frequently. But on a good note, we're shooting them all down! Kodos to great teammates:: ) And by the way, I have different teammates for all the different projects. Marcus, your idea!

Haha, it's really hilarious when you forget your 'project-mate combinations'. And I think no one commits the mistake more than I do. Oh wait, Claudia and Kimmy does! Haha, you should have seen the confused faces of the victims of our confusion.

Ah, good news! Our ECD tender for the bazaar stall has been approved, thank God! And now that you know it, come down to Woodlands to support me! Haha, Just-for-Bites will be selling really yummy hotdogs, I'm waiting for you, make sure you come and patronise my stall:: )

Honey, It's Been A Long Time

Hello people,

Haven't you missed me a thousand years since I was away from this stagnated blog? Haha, I have been 60% busy and 40% plain lazy to update of late. Since the last time I posted, I've entered my second year in Ngee Ann and am finishing my first term really soon! How quickly time flies:: ) Did you realise, that half the year is about gone?

Life has been good for me if you were wondering. Ever since the BAOC I've been riding on the far most best journey of mine in school. From having really a crazy bunch of SCs and society mates, to a class-full of wonderful people. In fact, we have had so much fun that we overlooked the fact that common test is 2 weeks away, yes, and I just reminded myself again. Give me the motivation and discipline to study!
