He Wants to Talk to You...

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

Misjudged....yet I'm accepted and approved by You.
For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love. (Ephesians 1:4)

He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; He will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the LORD will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness, (Malachi 3:3)

Vulnerable....yet You are my strength and my strong tower.
The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn (a) of my salvation, my stronghold. (Psalms 18:2)

Are You Going To Finish Your Race?

Derek Redmond was there not to stop the race, he was there to finish the race!

The moment his hamstring was torn, extreme pain struck him. He could have chosen to leave the track, but he didn't. Instead, he chose to finish the race, hobbling with his injured leg.
He wasn't alone, his father rushed into the track from the crowd. Together, they made it till the end.

Why didn't he lie on the stretcher and let the paramedics do the rest?
Why was he so determined to finish his race?
AND WHY DID HIS FATHER WENT INTO THE TRACK WHILE KNOWING THAT THE PARAMEDICS COULD DO IT ALL???

Despite the ordeal,
despite the tears,
he determined to give his all,
motivated by a love so love so strong and deep,
of a father who picked him up when he falls.

Life's but a race,

everything may start smooth and well,

no one knows when we are going to fall.

No matter how hard is the fall,

God is there to help us,

like the father in the video,

He is there for us till the very end. 

He wants us to finish strong!

How about you?

How is your race?

Are you in agony? Struggling and hobbling?

Feel like quitting?

God wants you to finish strong!

Will you

open your heart to Him?

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains; You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas; I am strong, when I am on your shoulders; You raise me up: To more than I can be.

Amazing Grace...

While sitting down and relaxing my mind during the heavy downpour that day, this particular incident somehow crossed my mind. And it really enlightened me, and reminded me how powerful and great is the Lord.

My aunt came back last year and stayed at my grandpa's house. Everyone was happy and everything was alright until one day.

My grandpa and my aunty were quite stubborn sometimes, so conflict happened between two of them. I couldn't really remember what happened, but all I knew was that they were in critical situation. My grandpa badmouthed my aunty and it made my uncle really unhappy. I don't really feel like mentioning what actually happened, it was just something really awful. And that time everyone was furious, until my aunty was like, "I don't wanna care that old man anymore."

The cold war persisted for a few days. And I was really worrying, because if my aunty really didn't want to care about my grandpa anymore, I couldn't imagine what will happen next. I looked up to God, praying hard that everything will return to normal soon. And for the next few days, nothing happened until one scorching afternoon. I reached home from school. My mum was in the living room, frowning. Something worse had happened. My uncle and aunty couldn't stand it anymore, they wanted to move out instead of staying in my grandpa's house. Hearing this stunning news, my heart turned cold, whispering, "Oh Lord, why aren't you answering my prayer? Why?" My faith started to fade. God wasn't listening to what I have prayed, that was my thought for that very moment. However, I still prayed, and tried to hold still, trying to believe that God will listen to me. My faith was shaken.

The next day, I went to school as other normal teens do. Repeating daily routine in school. Nothing special happened in school that day, just normal. Couldn't wait to go home, just didn't know why. Time passed by briskly, and I got home. With smile on her face, my mum opened the door and said, "It's over!"
"Huh? What?"
"Your grandpa and your aunty, it's over."
"What? It's over?"
"Yeah! Your aunty and your grandpa.  They are okay already."

That was the greatest news I had ever heard. I thankfully prayed, and regretted for losing my faith. I was really touched, for what  He had done for me and my family. From that day onwards, I knew that I don't have to worry  what is in front of me, because FOR SURE He will lead me till the very end. Even in hard times, I will still say, God will walk through it with me.  And I really love this verse, "We live by faith, not by sight.(2 Corinthians 5:7)"

Oh Lord, help us when we fall. Help us when our faith fails. Help us when we lose hope. Help us when we let go of your hands. Help us when temptation awaits. I know You will not forsake us! It is so great to have a friend like in my life, walking side by side no matter how the path ahead will be. Thank You Lord! In Jesus' glorious name we pray, AMEN!

鱼和水...

鱼说：你好美，我想我喜欢上了你..
水说：傻瓜，那仅仅是好感而已。
鱼说：真的，我不骗你..
水说：我不相信一见钟情..

日子一天天过去，鱼对水的感情也日趋笃厚..
鱼说：我喜欢和你在一起..
水说：那是因为你早已适应了我。
鱼说：我喜欢你的味道..
水说：那是因为你已习惯了我的存在。

几天后，水要继续远行..
鱼说：我已离不开你..
水说：过几天你就会忘了我的。
鱼说：不，我不会爱上除你以外的人..
水说：那是因为你还没有遇到除我以外的人。
鱼说：你是我的全部..
水说：你却不是我的唯一。
鱼说：你到底在追寻什么？
水说：只有海温暖的胸怀才是我的唯一。
鱼说：你难道不能为我而停留吗？
水说：不，一旦驻足，我就成了死水，就永远无法看到海的样子了。
鱼说：那我们能否并架齐驱？
水说：你永远无法追上我的脚步。
鱼说：你能否为我稍作等待？
水说：我只喜欢奔腾不息。
鱼说：无论如何，我都要陪你游向大海..
水说：别傻了，你只是一条淡水鱼。
鱼说：我不想让你一个人面对风浪..
水说：我不会因此而感激你。
鱼说：我不想博得你的感激，我只想和你在一起..
水说：你知道我不可能爱上你。
鱼说：但你不能剥夺我爱你的权利..
水说：你这样只会害了自己。

水和鱼经过了一条大河，鱼只剩下半条命..
鱼说：我不知道还能陪你多远了..
水说：回去吧，这样的日子不适合你。
鱼说：不，就算到了最后一秒，我都不会放弃..
水说：你傻得迷失了自己。
鱼说：那你能否试着接受一个傻瓜的爱呢？
水说：你明知道我的心早已被海占据。
鱼说：为什么？你总不能试着爱上我？
水说：我只相信，海才是我的唯一..

鱼和水经过了一条大江，鱼的生命只剩下四分之一..
鱼说：如果有一天我不在了，你会怎样？
水说：我会伤心，也会惋惜..
鱼说：那如果海不在了呢？
水说：我会心碎，也会随他死去..
鱼说：难道我们的朝夕相处还比不过一个幻影么？
水说：没有感情的相处只是多余的记忆..
鱼说：那海呢，你确信他会爱上你？
水说：他是我一生的梦，我不会放弃..

鱼无语，默默地陪水走完了剩下的距离..
终于，他们到了海边..
水看到了她的海，但她却不是海的唯一..
是啊，海有博大的胸怀，
博大到可以容纳百川在他怀里嬉戏，却无暇顾及水的存在。
水不愿做海身边众多佳丽之一，她决定离去..

这时，她想起了鱼，而鱼早已奄奄一息。
鱼说：我看到海了，他是那么英俊帅气，只有他才配得上你。
水说：但我却觉得他扑朔迷离。
鱼说：别担心，总有一天，海会发现你并爱上你。
水说：也许我真的错了。
鱼说：不会的，你那么爱海。
水说：曾经，也有一个人那么爱我，可我却忽略了。你说你爱我，说你要和我生生世世在一起..
鱼说：我不想给你一个兑现不了的承诺..
水说：你为什么不能自私一点？
鱼说：别这样，爱你是我的权利，爱我却不是你的义务..
水说：为什么我总是那么自私，那么固执？为什么我没有早点爱上你？
鱼说：别这样说，那样，我会走的很不安..

水说：为什么你总那么好，好到让我感到无地自容..
鱼说：忘了我吧，再去找一个值得你爱的人..
水说：你难道不是最值得我爱的人吗？
鱼说：别傻了，以后的日子，我不能陪你..
水说：我已错过太多的日子，我不能再错过你..
鱼说：别这样..
水说：我真的爱上你了..
鱼说：我都流泪了，你看见我幸福的泪了么？哦，我忘了，因为我在水里..
水说：不！ 我感受到了，因为现在，你在我心里..
鱼幸福地闭上了眼睛，在水的怀里..
听见自己心碎的声音.. ..

有人分担的 忧愁不叫痛苦..
有人分享的 快乐才叫幸福..

Another Totally Crazy Epic Night With Some Totally Crazy Epic Friends! HAHA

Yesterday night was another great night! xD
Hung out with JD, Ah Leong, Matthew, Angelina and Mark at Basaga(too bad Pyong can't join us). For those who are wondering where it is, here is the map. A nice place to hang out with friends and family, but don't go so frequently, unless your pocket is bottomless.


View Larger Map

 The LOL moment starts when me and JD were on the way to Basaga... ROFLOL!!! Although I had been to the actual place once, you know, I'm a Luchi. (google translate 路痴 from chinese to english then you know why I wrote this =_=)
So, I googled and printed the map to the destination, still we were lost... LOL!!!
We were turning circle around the Central Timur road. We tried alternative route, ended up returning to the same place again. Then...
JD: Ok, let's go home!
LOL!!! Nearly gave up, but we gave it a shot again after calling Mark. ROFLOL
Finally, after being late for 1 hour, we reached the restaurant. Thank God we reached in one piece LOL! What a fine dining place! xD


Matthew, Mark and Angelina was sitting there. LOL!!! Preparing to shoot the latecomers. Haha! And not long after we reached, Leong reached too aha! At least we were not the latest one! So we settled down and ordered some food. What a joke, got lost for 1 hour LOL!


Yeah, we chit chat joke talk. The atmosphere was really different with Mark and Matthew... haha! Two funny guys! xD

Highlights:
Leong: A girl asked his father, "Can I kick the durian?" Then the father replied, "Kick la!" Then she really kicked, and hurt her toes.
JD: NGAITI!
Matthew: Why do you say it out?
I guess Leong still catch no ball... Hahaha!


Talking about food, Leong, Matt and me ordered chicken chop (吃鸡 according to forget-who-it-was =_=) while the girls and Mark ordered Fish n' Chips.

Mouth-watering!
The food was just nice, just that the chicken chop was a bit charred. The rest was okay. xD
The surrounding was nice. Dimly lit with candle light, sound of  flowing water. Everything is just great! Oh... Not forgetting about the lizard! LOL! Ahaha! Indeed epic xD


Indeed a night filled with endless laughters! Thanks guys for making it!

Yes I will continue walking on!

Whoa, it has been long time since the last time I wrote my own post.
Had been down for these few days. Ahah! Why? Some personal problems had been playing in my mind all day, taking things too hard. You know haha... Okay maybe you don't... LOL nvm

Well today when I was going to take a shower, a voice is telling me, "Go on! God wants to make miracles for you!" For that very moment, I felt so motivated and touched! And my mood turns one hundred and eighty degree. Overwhelmed with joy and hope, I prayed... Thank you Lord. =)

Lots of time we have been depending on ourselves to do everything, and leaving our Heavenly Father behind. As time passes by, we feel weary and worn out, because what we have done has never been enough. And we will rant and blame anything on our way, why is it so unfair?! Why is this happening to me?! With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26)

Turn and look back, our Father has been waiting for you to call upon Him and return to Him. His hands have reached out for you before you know it. When you feel helpless, take a rest, and ponder, "what have I done? What have I really done? What have I really done for?" And you will be surprised that the answers will be exactly the same as how the questions sound.

So brothers and sisters! Feeling weary? Worn out? Disappointed? Hopeless? Depressed? Forsaken?
Call upon his name. For nothing is impossible with God. (Luke 1:37)
He wants to make miracles happen for you! Continue walking by faith and not by sight! (2 Corinthians 5:7)
Nothing is too hard for God, He knows what is the best for us and has His great plans in everyone of us. (Jeremiah 29:11)

God bless you all and have a nice day!

When He says NO ,

He certainly has something best for you!

Through Him nothing can't be done!

最后一次...

在我最后一次   闭上眼睛之前

我想对你说我爱你

 在你怀里   舍不得放弃

心里有千万语还没说给你听

我使劲全力   不想闭上眼睛

这次告别就不能再相遇

不能再陪你   但不要忘记

你曾经答应我你会好好活下去

先走了   去了好远的地方

不能再陪你看日出   等不到天亮

所有回忆    抹去   却并不容易

不要太伤心

好好珍惜身边的人

因为我们不知道

他们几时离开

最后的离开
