.: HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!!!! :.
`val here. <3
Firstly, I apologise if I sound crazy. [Usually I sound like that on blogs anyway.] IT'S DARN HOT IN HERE. My mother's pig stomach soup is unlike the outside food courts'. IT'S SPICY. You know when she just cooks it and that very night we drink it? I can
tahan, at least. She cooked it yesterday with LOTS OF PEPPER. Since most of my siblings love it to be spicy. She kept it overnight. And usually, her overnight spicy pig stomach's soup become even more spicy the next day. Since it was already so spicy yesterday, GOOD LUCK TO ME TODAY. I finished the soup like, half an hour ago. I drank cold water to cool myself down initially, but I didn't realise the heat would be so intense. NOW!! HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT. I SWITCH ON THE AIR-CONDITIONER AND FAN TO FULL BLAST. HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm using one, no, TWO of my sister's unopened letters on her table to fan myself. I can see you visualising me fanning myself frantically like a
siao char bor. Imagine. I'm quoting from whatever advertisement it was on the television. It's either Sam Sung or Sony. Heck.
I asked Joadine yesterday if it was alright for me to get a voodoo doll. You know, the cute little one on sale at Mini Toons? I wanted to get one of the studies, and they're on sale at $5.95. But I have the Mini Toons discount card for 10% or 15%. Can't remember. So if I use that card it's about $4.05. Today, she called me and asked me to called her and explained to me a whole junk yada yada about why we are not encouraged to get the voodoo doll/s. I'm blabbing. But whatever.
Anyway. I'm full to the brim. I know. I'm usually a bottomless pit. Let me tell you something. I WAS BROKE AFTER THE CELL RE-ENCOUNTER. For that whole week, I had less than $3. Then, on Sunday, my mother told me she owe me two weeks allowance. I was like, WHAT?!
Oh. Sorry to break the fantastic story short. My mood is currently spoilt by one of my friends. Close or not close, I don't know her. Suit herself. It's not my problem if her mood is bad. I'm not her punching bag where she lets out her frustrations, her angers, etc. I'M NOT FOR ABUSIVE TYPE. Darn her.
I know you're sad to see me leave. So am I.
Mood's spoilt. Buh-byee.

.: The Miracle Catch :.
Some thoughts for the Miracle catch.....Basically I was amazed at the number of people who came at the whole of youth service and we managed to fill up all the way to the back section. However I felt there was much more that each one of us could have put in. Like what one of my sisters mentioned, she knew that God was there , but there were some who miss Him and miss sharing Him with their friends. It was indeed an awsome sight as I see the place filled and the lives that were brought into the kingdom of God. Personally for me, this bringing 12 in 12 weeks has been a great challenge to me. Throughout this entire process, it definitely did increase my faith and courage to believe God for the impossible. It was not easy, and the many rejection which I faced but I thank God for the entire process as I have learnt that nothing is impossible if you learn to believe and trust in the Lord. The rejection which I faces also reminded me of all the rejection that Jesus took upon himself on the cross. I mean what I face as compared to what Jesus faced is nothing. Hence through that it really brought comfort although initially I felt disappointed. It also made me questioned why would people reject such a wonderful gift that God has for them...It was amazing how I had the courage to just ask people down over the past 3 months, either by mouth, through msn or through sms, although only to get back in return negative responses. However I am suprised at the perserverence I had, to press on and just be "thick skin" to ask, even I know chances are slim. I can say almost pratically cleared my list of Hp names of friends to contact but it made me realised one thing that I actually have made many friends, but I did not really make an effort to keep in touch with them. Hence when such times come, it seems a little weird to just ask to come down, especially for church service out of the blue. Therefore I will make a point form now on, to keep more in touch with my friends. Through this miracle catch, it also made me realised the importance of prayer, how we needed to always work hand in hand with that. Not just by ways of man, but also by the holy spirit. It has been for sometime ever since I was committed to pray, especially so after Pastor mentioned about the Jabez prayer. I know I made every effort to really pray it morning and night. I believe the event also brought my daughters to move out of their comfort zone to really by faith invite their friends down. Although at the end not many turn up, but they understood what it means to have pressed in to ask and some also felt rejected, but believe it made each one more motivated to keep asking more friends...Althought at the end only one of my friends came down for the service out of the many many that I asked, I know God did touch her and I believe a seed has been planted in her heart. Thank God for a new Granddaughter and I believe she will grow up well in this wonderful family that God has provided her with!Daughters lets move ahead, onward to be mighty women of God....Army Of God Are you ready? Whom do we serve? JESUS!

.: eunice :.
eunice is gonna post again.
dun mind her hor!
seems like eunice is spending more time here than in her own blog.
(purposely put all your link and never put eunice's)eunice changed the template btw. she hopes y'all don't mind. because her mother,
julee, told her the other one has too small viewing point. this one a bit bigger if you set the right resolution. don't ask eunice what's the resolution. she dunno.
oh, where were we? oh yes yes!
eunice want to thank the people who have been
bombarding (so violent) showering her with all different kinds of encouragement and support for this blog. each token of appreciation really makes eunice very happy.
eunice wants to let you know, during the re-encounter camp, her beloved GM (grandmother),
Ps YP, asked us "what can you do to contribute to this spiritual family?" (or close to that...). so, there you go. eunice is going to yield this blog to get her family together in intimate commune in the eyes of the Lord, cyber style (woohoo)! so all this is grounded on her beloved GM's challenge
(gee, eunice just remembered she used to call dear belle GM too. this is all so weird)
now, would you pity eunice because she is
bleeding (eeyah... too drama) sweating for this. help her by visiting this blog, at least, weekly and post/tag your updates on your walk with God or just drop your 'hallo'. be transparent, family, so that we can understand each other more. (ey, but please ah! settle your feuds somewhere else! and don't post anything like "Yujia is fat" or something like that ah! poor thing you know.).
also, let us be legible and comprehensible. let us use proper english
yah lor. don't put those graffiti fonts that only leonardo can decipher. worse yet, use bombastic words that only the respectable
Ps Cesar Castellianos can understand! you know, that thing. refrain from using that thing ok! cause if you keep on using that thing, who is going to know what thing you talking about? yes yes, we can speak in tongues here but we have yet acquired the gift of translation. and this is not mars. or maybe you just need an english lesson from
ahpa.
eunice is being lame for the moment. she is still suffering from her post fever era, the soar throat era. eunice is very hungry right now because she can't swallow food. her tonsils really hurt. she can't even drink water. but eunice went to school and still talked a lot despite the throbbing pain because she's just a happy person, just ask her dear sister cum classmate, itchy aka
jessica. eunice's classmates don't even believe that she was sick or has sore throat
(sad lah). she rarely gets this stuff. so please pray for eunice because she likes eating too. though not as much as her niece, valerie, does.
eunice is saying bye for now! eunice loves all of you!

.: The Tunnel of Hatred. ((: :.
Valerie here. ((:
During the morning devotion on the last day of cell-encounter, I started writing in my notebook. And this "Tunnel of Hatred" came to mind. As it is, I have hatred in my heart. The tunnel of hatred illustrates exactly how I'm feeling. I'm trapped in a deep, dark and dirty tunnel. I have to get out of there. Because it's deep, I'm lost. Because it's dark, I'm more afraid. Because it's dirty, I get more dirty. Instead of going out, I'm digging myself deeper and deeper into the tunnel. I need to get myself out of the tunnel and bathe to get the dirt off completely. It may take a long time because I've dug too deep a tunnel. Each time I try to dig towards the entrace of the tunnel, I'm faced with a roof-fall and this sets me back. I caused the roof-fall to happen, because I harboured negative thoughts. And yet, I give up and dig even deeper inside the tunnel, hiding in it. Along the way, there are worms and all those creepy-crawlies, which is Satan trying to trap and block me to make me go even deeper into the tunnel.
I shared this with Joadine and Kai Yee, and they said that God put this word in my heart to tell me what I should do. Technically speaking, it will indeed take a long time. I'm way too deep in it.
I went crazy yesterday and I really want to take this opportunity to thank God for sending Kai Yee online on MSN. I shared with her everything and He also sent me Ying Qi to call me out for lunch. (:
I have decided to delete away my old blog. My blog is for ME. Me alone. To blog out my frustrations, my tempers, my unhappiness. And yet? People invade my blog. They don't do anything bad, but they are people whom I do not want them to read my blog. True, they act as silent readers and all that stuff, thinking I won't find out about them. I CAN and I WILL find out eventually. Since I have no peace in a blog and a diary, perhaps I shall have a media one. One that I can just talk to my MP3 or handphone and record it. A media blog. Cool, huh?
Darn mosquito. Flying around my legs. Looking for a chance to suck my blood. If my darling hamsters ever get bitten by those mosquitoes, I shall REMOVE THEM FROM THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH.
Speaking of my hamsters, there is a lizard. Don't you know what's a lizard? A reptile. A small one. That's right. One of them, a fat and huge one, IS LIVING WITH MY HAMSTERS!
Imagine that! In the mornings and nights, the lizard will be sleeping in the cage with them. In the afternoons, etc, it wakes up and hides behind the cupboard. At first, I was even thinking, what if the lizard bites and kills my hamsters? My father has since put aside that thought. Frankly speaking, I'm still afraid of the lizard. There was once I was feeding my hamsters some vegetables when the lizard appeared and brushed past my hands! I didn't know until I saw it. As expected, I SCREAMED.
Yesterday was my grandfather's first death anniversary. Everybody went to that place where his ashes were kept. [I forgot where.] My friend and his family's ashes were near my grandfather's one. Thus, my mother bought four yellow chrysanthemums for them as well. After which all of us [my relatives] went to a nearby coffee-shop near my grandmother's house and had dinner. We had booked three tables in advance. I tell you, my baby cousin, Brandon, is absolutely, absolutely, PERVERTIC. I won't elaborate on that.
Buh-bye. I'm HUNGRY! I'm going to look for some snacks to eat. Yum yum, you don't have snacks. Wahaha.

.: When We Hear His Voice :.
WHEN WE HEAR HIS VOICE
Jeremiah was appointed God's spokesman to call the people of Israel back to a relationship filled with true worship. But despite many pleas for the people to repent, their hearts remained cold and closed to God's wonderful truth; "They go from one sin to another; they do not acknowledge Me" (Jeremiah 9:3).After many years of living in rebellious sin, the calling ceased and Israel was taken captive by the Babylonians; "'You have rejected Me,' declares the Lord. 'You keep on backsliding. So I will lay hands on you and destroy you; I can no longer show compassion'" (Jeremiah 15:6).
God dearly loves His children: "He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9). He sent His Son to die as a sacrifice for our sins and gave His Spirit to strengthen and guide us along His path. He continues to call, but constant rejection will cause our heart to harden and be subject to God's discipline.A hardened heart has chosen to live separated from God. It can no longer hear God's call and cannot even recognize His truth. When this occurs, our Loving Father responds with great sorrow and allows the hardened heart to follow the path it desires; "Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts" (Romans 1:24).
Dear Lord, do not allow us to follow our own path!God calls us today through His Word. He calls us through those He has sent into the world to proclaim His truth. He even calls through messages such as this. Is there a tug on your heart to place your trust in the forgiveness offered through Jesus? Is there a desire for a deeper commitment, a greater worship, a life of greater holiness and purity? These desires, pulls, and tugs are all the call of God being made through His Spirit.Hebrews 3:15"Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion."When we hear the call of God's voice, we must respond. He is calling us to Salvation through faith in Jesus; calling us to know Him better through His Word and prayer; calling us to serve others with love and nurture Godly relationships; and calling us to draw near through more intimate worship. His call is a wonderful confirmation of His love, but we must follow and not turn away. Today, let's answer His call and resolve to never again allow our heart to harden when we hear His voice

.: Thanks Giving Testimony By Eunice :.
dearest mother
sigh. just wrote this after i got home from retreat. haha. just wanna say that i was really really really blessed by the camp. i'm quite reluctant (or shy?) to say this but i can finally experience the family thing (you know! that thing! :p) in our G12 cell group, i mean, our spiritual family (SF) at last. reluctant because by saying that, i'm actually admitting that i've never felt that family relationship before.
i'm ignited by the new want to be like da jie. to help you manage and expand (that thing) our family. grace told me that since she has her own family to build too, we must rise up now! especially me and jess a.k.a. itchy. i agree with her. grace have been doing so much now a days. i'm so encouraged by her. growing so much. one thing i've shared with gladys, jess a.k.a. itchy and to grace is that i've kinda wavered about church or church activities on certain occasions. been coming in and out. rebellious at times. i'm sure you've noticed. of course lah hor. anyways, i've been reading joshua and judges over the month, and now then i realised that israel had betrayed God for dunno how many times. still, when israel cried out to Him, He saved them from their troubles, time and time again. why? i dunno why but i'm so amazed by His loyalty and love for His children! it struck me when i realized that i'm actually in the same boat with israel (though i can say with confidence that there are no baal statues in my room!). i thank you mama. for bearing with me. for taking all my nonsense and putting up with it. for persisting with me. for loving me. i know it's God's supernatural love in you so i must thank Him too for giving me such a God-fearing mom.
before you were washing my feet. i was asking myself - am i worthy of the love of this woman? what if i'm unable to serve her? what if it's too challenging to obey her? what if i turn away again? will she accept me? will she love me as she loves the others? but once again, God reminded me of all the journey that i went through with Him. i remembered the cross i saw during the G12 conference and who i was standing with. i stood up and approached the basin with ambivalence. fear and desire. and when you washed my feet. i told myself, i will commit to this wonderful woman. now and forever. i will follow her and serve her as she follows and serves Jesus. by the strength and guidance of the Holy Spirit, i will. till i see heaven, i will (or who knows? even after).
i'm really grateful for the camp. it was sooo fun! and revealing. it feels like an oridinary camp made extraordinary by God! though was quite tiring. aiyah. ya lah! who could be more tired than you? =) God bless and peace! (feels cheesy emailing you. don't ask why)
your dear and cute daughter
