Bukit Timah
Today was first training day for M. Kinabalu...
Wasn't exactly a very high hill to train on, but the gruelsome trail has definitely shown me what to expect ahead. It was not really tiring a bit throughout and after. But as some said, show respect to Mount K. if you want to conquer it. Indeed, I'll be intensively preparing myself mentally and physically for it. Lessons I drawn from today's training.
1. In life, it's not about me getting to the point. It's how I can bring people around me along to achieve that goal.
2. Life is not to be rushed or taken at a superbly slow pace. It's about regulating and just being discipline. To rush through the training is impossible and to take your own sweet time, will only delay in finishing it.
It was definitely a beautiful time of training and fellowshipping with the rest of the climbers. Youths were definitely still much alive and the adults were doing good. Even the youngest climber had no problem reaching the halfway mark. Time to stock up on gatorade and chocolate bars!
Let's perserve on and just as to apply in our spiritaul lives, suffering doesn't mean saddness. It's the way to enjoyment and moulding process. Looking forward to the day to climb. God bless.

lonely...
Feeling lonely?
Being alone but not feeling lonely. I can only thank God enough for this that He has told. How magnificent it is. Being all by myself but not feeling lonely at all. I love it. Why go into a group of people and yet feel as if no one is bothered about you.
God, indeed it's how You think that I care about. God, You have the power to speak to anyone. The power to change any idea. The power to create. God, when will I see that glorious work of Yours in my life...
Change me Lord, for Your glory.
Use me Lord, for Your will.
And all honour be to Your name, Amen.

Proverbs 31:10-31
Verse 30: Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting. But a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
U. Mark shared regards to wife of noble character today. Thanks to God that He uses people to share His word. Indeed, it is encouraging that the bible even tells men what traits to look for in a woman. Many a times, friends around me always ogle at females and start commenting on what they look for and how hot their ideal partners should be. Wondering, how true is it for us and children of God to behave like this too.
Many crushes and many chances. Nevertheless, the one in me, in my heart stands firmly.
It was tough and is still hard. Challenging but I shall endure, for the Lord has His plans for me. Sometimes, I feel so lost and question why. But I am reassured that God who can do all things, sees the matters of my heart. He hears and He knows. He never fails. We may not get what we desire, but I know, if it is not for me to have, Lord please help to me to accept Your will. For it will not be easy for me to swallow, but I pray Lord, let that 3 ---> 10. No doubt, let Your will be done in my life.
Listening to Your precious words.
Standing still in Your presence.
My awesome God.
My wondrous Lord.
You came and You reign.
You died and You rose again.
Jesus, You're my Lord.
It's You I need, all of my life.
I trust in You.
What a random praise line that I came up for You, Lord. Nevertheless, love You Lord. Even as a foolish lover, because I know You exist and Your goodness endures forever. Amen.

Cell...SGoon??
Went for cell. Rush down from competition at Simei ITE. Reached about 915...
I left at 830 and wanted to grab a cab by 845 but the cab that came along only came at 855...why...
Many things happened between 830 and 845...Want to know why?
I was praying to God while looking out for a cab...I just kept praying the same prayer over and over again, holding hopes that God will send a cab. I argued with Him why I cannot get a cab for so long, trust me I did really ask God a lot of matters...Thank God, and I mean thank you Lord, You sent the cab coming. Though it did not come at the timing I desired, the driver was pretty fast though he looked older than 65 already.
Anyway, arrived at cell and U. Francis prompted everyone to clap for my arrival. I don't know what to say. I mean in the good way. God had sent the cab coming not at my timing but He did send the cab and what U. Francis did, it just touched me. The cell or rather the caretakers of the cell are just so wonderful. God gave the care and they passed it on. It just hit on me, whether I was doing the same to people around me. Am I being hospitable or hostile??
Thank God for SG cell.
Thank God for His grace.
Thank God for everything.

Kinabalu
Today Uncle Kenny preached on Psalm 131 and talking about child-like faith in God for this year 2007. He spoke of Psalm 46:10 which happens to be my verse for the year.
"Be still and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations;
I will be exalted in the earth."
Today, I felt God assuring me go back to Him. Don't give up and stop praying because that's why the evil one desires. I'm still trying to pick myself up and the bible up again especially. Indeed the word of God is so filled with treasures and gems of advice, Lord, guide me through this period. Lord, I desire for a weaned child-like faith, let me bow down to Your purpose and let Your will be done. Amen.
Going to M. Kinabalu, signed up today. Going to train hard for it, might want to consider carrying U. Anthony's younger daughter up since she doesn't have the fitness to go up by herself( she's 4 only) so I'll challenge myself.

Who do you know that is gifted in serving others? Think about what they can teach you today
Was sitting around on the couch, watching the tv when this came to me since I've been having trouble accepting that not everyone has me as their priority.
Jesus was sent down to earth to love all equally. Imagine if He turned away as everyone despised him. This world will never be saved then?
But by the grace of God, Jesus still loved and loves us all the same and still died for you and me on the cross, paying the price of our sin once and for all. Difficult to accept that a stranger can actually pay for my debts? But it happened, by faith, I believe God has the best for me.
Forgive me O' Lord once again I've failed you a thousand times. Lord, indeed Your name is higher and greater for You are everlasting and gracious. I pray that You will bring me back under Your wings and let me see the glory of Your grace and mercy. Let Thy will be done. Amen.
