Always on your side

God is... always on Your Side.

Romans 8:31 If God is for us, who can be against us.

This has been on my mind for the past few days.. of how much God is FOR us. Imagine - He didn't have to send His only Son to die. Im sure there are many alternatives. But He sent His very best. The ultimate sacrifice. There's no stopping Him now.. He has done the extreme for someone He loves the most. Me. and You.

Why should He stop at giving us substandard health? Why stop at giving us some material blessing? Why give us a mediocre career or payslip? Why bless us with some things and not everything?

There is NO reason why. It's so crucial to have a clear revelation of God. Of how much He has loved and is loving. Then we will never have any doubt that He wants the best for us. After all, He has given His best to us.

And about us... i actually thought for a few days about what happened... and the wierdest thing is... I really can't remember!!! I dont think it was anything we did.. we were so close and I guess we needed some space.. but i dont know why we werent even talking??? really? Im sorry if i seem to have a memory lapse.. which i tend to have... but really, i think it may have been me - i tend to withdraw from people sometimes.. and i just didnt know myself that well then.. Im much more aware of my crazy temperament now..I wasn't very good at expressing myself.but hey, no worries.. everything's good.

but the biggest change about me isn't really all that... i think the most important thing that happened to me was/is that i became a Christian right before i met my husband... and that has definitely changed my life completely :)

I'll give you a ring one of these days? my husband's always travelling and when he's back, i try to spend as much time as possible with him :)

Jac, I'm sorry I never called. It was the bestest and funnest BFF relationship I had... thank you for your love and your friendship. I wish I had told you that in person.

Loss of an old friend..

I got news that my college friend passed away today.

We've lost touch for 12 years... and how fast these years have gone by. We recently got in touch again through facebook and she shared about her failing health.. and she gave me her number and I promised that I'll call her... and I let it slip for nearly a month now.

I regret that i didnt get the last chance to speak to her. I really wanted to visit her, pray for her and offer her my friendship again.

Im glad we managed to clear some things up about why we fell out, and why we didn't keep in touch.. I should have known something was wrong when she stopped the emails.. i really didnt think it would be so fast.

sometimes we just got to do what we want to do.... else life just passes us by...

Fight from victory, not for victory

Today's lesson for me.

Jesus has paid the price on the cross. We have won the battles in our lives.
No matter what we do - we won.

We won.

My most favoritest song of worship

Avalon - Can't live without you

i could live life alone
And never fill the longings of my heart
The healing warmth of someone's arms
And I could live without dreams
And never know the thrill of what could be
With every star so far and out of reach
I could live without many things
And I could carry on, but...

CHORUS
I couldn't face my life tomorrow
Without Your hope in my heart I know
I can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
Without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all I do
I can't live a day without You

I could travel the world
See all the wonders beautiful and new
They'd only make me think of You
And I could have all life offers
Riches that were far beyond compare
To grant my every wish without a care
Oh, I could do anything, oh yes
But if You weren't in it all...

Oh, Jesus, I live because You live
You're like the air I breathe
Oh, Jesus, I have because You give
You're everything to me

Encounter with...

Pastor Mark :)

Bumped into him and his wife at some event...

I couldn't contain myself.. i went up to him beaming... i had to tell him about the good news! My mum was saved at the Mid Autumn Festival event where he preached!!!

I just kept thanking him.. and of course, we give glory to God alone!

But i forgot to encourage him by telling him that God has given him a great anointing to reach out to the "aunties" and "uncles" of Singapore...

AH! God is sooooo good. His plans are perfect.

I feel

completely drained...
