Bridging Programme

2012-01-25T16:05:00.000+08:00

Is it necessary to have a 18-month programme for some of the international students before they start on their basic undergraduate studies in the local universities? They study English language to brush up on their proficiency of the language during the 18 months. They are paid some allowance during the 18 months too.

Aren't there enough local students, who are already very proficient in the English language, to further their studies in the local universities? Does it make any sense that some of these local students have to further their education in overseas universities, at the expense of their parents, instead?

There are just not enough places in the local universities to meet the demand from both the local and international students. Shouldn't priority be given to the local youths instead?

Penal Code

2012-01-16T21:21:00.001+08:00

‎"In Singapore, under the Penal Code, Section 509 states that individuals intending to insult the modesty of any woman by saying any word (including the F word), making any sound or gesture, or exhibiting any object, can be jailed up to one year, fined, or both." ~ Great revelation to be kept in mind for future self-defence by the fairer gender :)

she mentioned my tweet in her blog yesterday

she made my day!

why?

she hardly publicised any blogs and tweets

her blog has an average of 700 readers per day

nice!

and we are strangers...

Little Children

2012-01-02T17:05:00.001+08:00

Oh Lord! We come to you with much anxieties and worries. Please be with all the little children especially in the midst of their new surroundings and environment. Please strengthen each one of them as they deal with the pain of separation and challenges of adaptation. It's not simple to adjust to new caregivers and a different lifestyle. They are still so young and innocent. May they be comforted by Your peace and love. Please look after each one of them every second of the day and night. Oh Lord! Have mercy! Thank you, Lord! Amen!

~ my heart is tearing and broken now upon learning of their latest situation. i've known them since they were born. i just need to trust our Lord to look after them.

Happy New Year 2012

2012-01-01T19:55:00.002+08:00

Was 2011 kind to us? Or was it a tough year?

Think of all the ups and downs, the good and bad, the best and worst.

We need to tie up any loose ends and then move forward to this new year.

New Year's Eve movie

2011-12-31T20:10:00.001+08:00

Before the clock strikes 12 tonight, take a moment...

"to stop and reflect on the year that has gone by. To remember both our triumphs and our missteps - our promises made, and broken. The times we opened ourselves up to great adventures - or closed ourselves down, for fear of getting hurt. Because that's what New Year's Eve is all about: getting another chance. A chance to forgive, to do better, to do more, to give more, to love more. And stop worrying about 'what if' and start embracing what would be. ...let's remember to be nice to each other, kind to each other. And not just tonight but all year long."

Lost, Least, Last

2011-12-22T17:55:00.000+08:00

during this festive period

i would like to pray more for

the lost, least and last

it has been a turbulent year

for most of them

politically, economically and financially

may our good Lord

meet their needs

be it emotional, material or spiritual

may they come across

some angels

who will comfort them

may we be more sensitive

to their feelings

and general well-being

RAINBOW (Acrostic Poem)

Always drawing admiration

Intriguing and inspiring

Never failing to awe

Beautifully arching across

Over the mountains and hills

Wonderfully created by God

may you draw close to Him

i'll be thinking of you

take care

December 2011

2011-12-01T21:15:00.002+08:00

It's the first day of the last month of 2011

This year passes by very swiftly

We need to end it appropriately

By giving thanks and praise

To The Almighty Father with grace

Who is better?

2011-10-25T07:05:00.000+08:00

A person who attends church religiously every Sunday.

But his character speaks otherwise for the rest of the week.

or...

A non-believer who has very fine character consistently everyday in his life.

Grace

2011-10-24T16:45:00.000+08:00

Grace is amazing.

Grace and faith are very important.

We need to be people of grace.

We need to make wishes of grace.

but...

is it possible to show grace continuously to those who are always absolutely unlovable?

Beautiful People

2011-10-14T04:37:00.000+08:00

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggling, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen." ~ Elizabeth Kubler Ros

Thank you so much to all the beautiful people in my life. God bless!

Retirement Home

2011-10-12T21:45:00.002+08:00

Is it wise to spend all the life savings to buy a retirement home in another country without any friends? This is just a thought and question that had been popping in my head after reading that it is someone's plan to do so.

Steve Jobs

2011-10-11T07:02:00.003+08:00

Steve Jobs inspires me a lot. He had a very tight, close circle of true, genuine and sincere friends. He protected his privacy fiercely. He lived his life according to his own terms without any unwelcome interferences, comments nor opinions from uninvited sources. This is what I would consider a great and fruitful life lived :)

10th Anniversary of September 11

2011-09-09T20:11:00.001+08:00

Let us pass this around and call for a moment of silence in respect to one of the worst tragedies on American soil in our times. At 9:11 on 9/11 we will respect a moment of silence for 9min 11 sec. It seems like a long time but imagine the people that were trapped in the towers, under the building when it collapsed. Let us for once ignore the political wall that has divided this world and for just 9min and 11 seconds come together as one. WILL YOU JOIN ME....

From someone's blog...

2011-08-27T20:50:00.000+08:00

1. It's not what you gather,

but what you scatter

that tells what kind of life you have lived.

2. Life is too short to wake up with regrets.

Love the people who treat you right,

and pray for the ones that don't.

cry out to Him

Press On

2011-08-08T07:07:00.003+08:00

My Pastor shared with the congregation on how his 70-plus-year-old mother accepted Jesus Christ as her Personal Saviour recently. She had been practising ancestral worship throughout her life. Almost all her relatives and friends are non-believers of Jesus Christ.

My Pastor had been praying for his beloved mother's salvation for a very long time. He had gone down on his knees. He had fasted. He had cried out to The Almighty Father.

One fine day, in His most perfect timing, my Pastor's mother accepted our Lord into her life. Hallelujah!

Her main reason is because she remembers the love, care and concern shown to her by a Christian lady about 40 years ago. This Christian lady had helped her unconditionally when she became a very young widow with 3 children suddenly. Pastor Aaron Tay was only a few months old then.

We need to press on with the agape love of our Lord.

Letters To Juliet

2011-07-19T21:38:00.000+08:00

Dear Claire,

‘What’ and ‘If’ are two words as non-threatening as words can be. But put them together side-by-side and they have the power to haunt you for the rest of your life: What if? What if? What if? I don’t know how your story ended but if what you felt then was true love, then it’s never too late. If it was true then, why wouldn’t it be true now? You need only the courage to follow your heart. I don’t know what a love like Juliet’s feels like – love to leave loved ones for, love to cross oceans for but I’d like to believe if I ever were to feel it, that I will have the courage to seize it. And, Claire, if you didn’t, I hope one day that you will.

All my love, Juliet

Pull the Plug

2011-07-13T06:27:00.002+08:00

The $25 owed since February 2011 had been settled yesterday

Finally...

The rest of the group had paid their share during the birthday gathering itself

So punctual

I had to blog about it a few days ago to pull the plug

Oh well...

Her name had been removed from the earlier post

It's settled

2011-07-11T07:11:00.002+08:00

does it pay to be timid, meek and gentle all the time?

does it pay to be kind, nice and generous all the time?

does it pay to be friendly, helpful and accommodating all the time?

people can and will take advantage of you

people will not be grateful at all

people will forget about you

it's wise to show your love, care and concern selectively

look and observe how that person treats the lowly

what that person speaks of the others and vice versa

It's only $25

2011-07-10T20:25:00.001+08:00

It was her share for a birthday gift for a mutual friend

She always said that she would transfer the money to the bank account soon

It's only $25

The birthday was in February 2011

Between February and now, she had been posting pictures of her shopping and eating sprees

She had been writing on her Facebook wall whenever she took the cab to somewhere

I had just sent reminders to her Facebook and mobile 3 hours ago

Is she avoiding the reminders and me now?

I'll call her tomorrow if she doesn't reply me

I hardly shamed anyone in public

But she is taking far too long to return the$25

This is long overdue

Accountability is the cornerstone of a person's character

Good Bye...

2011-07-02T05:37:00.004+08:00

"What's this?!" was her reply when I turned down her second suggestion to meet her. After all we're meeting the others in about 3 weeks' time.

"Are you expecting your second one now?!" was her question to me when we finally met together with the rest 3 weeks later. It would take a miracle for middle-aged women to carry a child. She needs to think before asking, please. We're of the same age after all. Yes, I'm on the very plump side. But still...

Based on these 2 responses from her and my little voice, I've decided not to be friends with her on Facebook.

There was a mini reunion dinner when a mutual friend paid a visit from abroad after 26 years of not meeting upon graduation. We were not even in each other's inner circle of friends while we were staying in the same uni hostel.

Well, I've to be true and honest with myself. I've to protect my poor little heart and feelings. I just don't need some people in my life.

Life moves and goes on happily. Good bye to her...

2011-07-01T21:11:00.000+08:00

Should we have just let Jonathan Emmanuel Tan Jia Wen jump down when we asked him to leave us alone, immediately and forever?

Sometimes...

2011-06-18T19:55:00.000+08:00

it is better for me...

to keep quiet and reflect

to speak and share

to ask and clarify

to explain and discuss

to pray and trust

The Tale of Two Umbrellas

2011-06-08T20:30:00.002+08:00

One umbrella is very old and faded

But it is very durable

It has survived many heavy rainfalls

It has been blown by strong winds

Yet its condition is still very good

The other one is the story of a few new umbrellas

They were very pretty and nice

Yet each of them could not withstand

the rain nor the wind

They had to be thrown away

the end... :)

2011-05-30T18:37:00.000+08:00

URGENT!

Food poisoning cases in Europe now. A virulent form of E. coli bacteria blamed on infected cucumbers from Spain has killed 10 people in Germany and left 300 people hospitalised across Europe. It's the biggest outbreak worldwide now.

Please avoid eating raw vegetables and raw meat, especially cucumber, lettuce and tomatoes. Please take care and pray!

2011-05-19T17:35:00.002+08:00

it was a long day yesterday

my heart was heavy

there were a lot of questions

i received news in the morning

that my 50-year-old friend is a widow

her college sweetheart had passed on

then as i was about to call it a day

a 52-year-old friend had passed on

after being in coma for 3 weeks

we are really living on borrowed time

we need to treasure our lives and loved ones

we must stay close to The Almighty forever

this is life

it goes on

with faith and hope

take care

2011-05-02T06:55:00.002+08:00

Trust me I rarely like nor hate people

I am just neutral

and I can always tell when people are being pretentious

people can hear your words

people can witness your actions

there is no need to be so airheaded

there is nothing to brag and boast about in the first place

it takes years to prove oneself

so please be humble, grateful and genuine

time will tell...

time will reveal...

Did e'er such Love

and Sorrow meet,

or thorns compose

so rich a

Letting Go

2011-04-13T05:50:00.003+08:00

"learning the true meaning of letting go and at the same time telling her to let go.. its so difficult"

The above was written on her facebook wall about 5 hours before her mother returned home to our Lord on Sunday night. Her mother was a very brave and strong lady who had cancer for the past few years.

She is one of my child's closest friends for the past 13 years.

With my child being away, the least I could do is to attend the wake service and funeral service for her friend's mother.

May our Lord comfort the family during this time.

Oh why?

2011-04-06T15:55:00.000+08:00

Many months ago this blog was made private. Only a few invited friends were allowed to have access to it.

A few days ago I discovered that at least three unknown and uninvited people are following this blog.

Obviously I was shocked.

Who are they?

Why are they following me?

How did they do it?

How long have they been reading my posts?

What is the point of locking this blog then?

This is a public blog now. However I'll be very selective in my posting. I can always email any personal post to my friends. You know who you are ^grin^

The Straits Times' Annual Forum Dialogue

2011-04-03T15:55:00.000+08:00

I seldom boast nor praise myself. May I be allowed to do so just this once?

25,363 letters were received by the nation's highest circulation newspaper The Straits Times Forum Page last year. That works out to about 80 letters being received daily. Only 15 letters were selected to be printed.

These letters are representative of the views and concerns of the general population. Some of these letters have sparked debate and triggered quick responses from government bodies and corporations alike.

The Forum Page is widely regarded as being the primary page for the ordinary man in the street to hold the Government and its agencies accountable for their policies and administrative actions.

It is also a manifestation of a concerned citizenry, an active civil society, and of the Government and corporate world seeking to engage the readers on their cares, concerns and queries.

On this Thursday, The Straits Times will host its 9th gathering for contributors, which will be attended by more than 60 letter writers whose ages range from 19 to 64.

The gathering is expected to be invigorating and packed with conversation. Readers and journalists as well as spokesmen for government and private corporations will get a rare chance to meet, greet and chat informally in one place.

It's a very great honour and privilege to receive an invitation to the Forum Dialogue. But I turned it down with a grateful heart. Big gatherings are not for me :)

Heart Wrenching Letter

2011-04-02T22:39:00.001+08:00

May I share a letter with you?

"Dear Mummy,

I hope you're alive.

Are you well?"

from 4-year-old Manami Kon

whose parents and younger sister

are missing in the tsunami in Japan on 11 March 2011

"Oh Lord! Please comfort her and all the young survivors of the tsunami. It's very heart-wrenching to know that many young orphans are looking at the sea with the belief and hope that their parents will be reunited with them one day. We pray for some responsible adults to take care of them and guide them in their lives. Please remove all the hurts and pains from their innocent young lives. May they be strong emotionally and physically as they try to cope with this most tragic episode in their lives. Thank you so much, Lord. Amen!"

2011-03-11T15:55:00.000+08:00

A tsunami of 10 metres hits northern Japan after a massive 8.9-magnitude earthquake shook the area. Tsunami warning has been issued to many countries in the Pacific Ocean. Take care.

2011-02-21T06:55:00.001+08:00

Oh Lord! We come before Your Throne to thank You and give You all the glory for all the wonderful blessings which You have showered upon us. We thank You for looking after our loved ones and ourselves.

Please strengthen us physically, emotionally and spiritually. Please protect us from all harm and evil. Please guide us in our daily lives.

We pray for Your peace, grace, joy, love and mercy to fill our lives.

We pray for our friends who need speedy and complete healing. Please comfort them and remove all their pain, Lord. May they be able to rest and sleep well. May they have good appetite.

In Jesus' most mighty Name, we pray! Amen!

Our Divine Valentine

2011-02-14T07:27:00.002+08:00

A Valentine may play a love song for you, but God sings you the sweetest love song in the universe.
The Lord your God... will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17

A Valentine may give you flowers, but God sent you the most beautiful rose of all. Jesus.
I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.
Song of Solomon 2:1

A Valentine may bring you chocolate, but God provides you with something even sweeter, His Word.
How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:103

A Valentine may love you for a lifetime, but God loved you before you were born and will love you for all eternity.
Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love...with lovingkindness I have drawn you. Jeremiah 31:3

Praying you're blessed by the wonderful love of God this Valentine's Day and always!

Got this beautiful valentine message from my email inbox this morning.

Please pray for Isabelle who will be leaving for her undergraduate student exchange programme in Switzerland on 16 February. She'll be flying to Heathrow Airport to catch a connecting flight to Geneva Airport. Thank you =)

The Rose Lyrics - Bette Midler song -

Some say love, it is a river

That drowns the tender reed

Some say love, it is a razor

That leaves your soul to bleed

Some say love, it is a hunger

An endless aching need

I say love, it is a flower

And you, its only seed

It's the heart, afraid of breaking

That never learns to dance

It's the dream, afraid of waking

That never takes the chance

It's the one who won't be taken

Who cannot seem to give

And the soul, afraid of dying

That never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely

And the road has been too long

And you think that love is only

for the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter

Far beneath the bitter snow

Lies the seed

That with the sun's love, in the spring

Becomes the rose

2010-10-29T14:33:00.000+08:00

The 33 miners were rescued on the 33rd week of the year;

it took 33 days to drill down to them;

they were brought up to the surface on 13/10/10 which = 33.

They say Jesus, who was crucified at the age 33, was with them the entire time.

Jesus Christ and His almighty power!

My home address is 33.

Awesome! :o)

2010-10-14T13:15:00.003+08:00

Courage, hope, faith and a strong will to live must have kept the 33 Chilean miners going throughout the long 69 days underground. To God be the glory!

Mathematics tells us three of the saddest love stories:

Of parallel lines, who were never meant to meet.

Of tangent lines, who were together once then parted forever.

And of asymptotes, who could only get closer and closer, but could never be together.

2010-04-03T17:55:00.002+08:00

On this Easter weekend, let us take the time to reflect on our lives and thank and praise the Lord:

* For though we are sinners, God so loved the world that God sent Jesus to die for our sins that we may be cleansed and saved.

* For though we still stumble and fall, God sent the Holy Spirit to live in us and to continue to shape us and produce the fruit of the Spirit.

* For though things don't always go our way, God has nevertheless blessed us in so many wonderful ways.

Have a very Blessed Easter =)

Precious Drizzle

2010-03-10T06:57:00.000+08:00

It's drizzling now. It has not been raining since the last week of January. The weather has been very hot (35C) and humid. Fortunately, the gentle sea breeze blew on some days. The plants and animals will love the cool rain now.

Painful Past

2010-03-02T16:15:00.002+08:00

"My mother hates me. I hate my mother. Even though we hate each other, she's still my mother and I'm still her daughter..." shared by a 60-plus-year-old Malay Muslim lady about 5 hours ago.

My heart ached upon hearing it from her. She is a grandmother of 4. She is a very beautiful lady with a big heart.

I didn't know that so much pain and hurt are hidden beneath her smiles and laughter. We used to bump into each other on our grocery shopping trips.

Her mother has passed on 3 years ago.

Urgent Prayer

2010-01-09T10:28:00.008+08:00

Please pray for our brethens in Malaysia. Three churches were torched yesterday. Protest rallies had been held.

The legal court in Malaysia had allowed a Catholic publication to use the word "Allah" in their Malay issues.

"Allah" is the specific name of the Muslims' god.

How would the Christians feel if the other religions misuse the name of "Jesus"?

Non-Muslims in the country can use the word "Tuhan" in their publications which are printed in the Malay language. "Tuhan" is the general name for god. Christians can use the word "Tuhan Yesus" which is the Malay name for Jesus.

This is just a simple solution to the current religious tension in Malaysia.

Prayerfully the situation will not worsen on Sunday tomorrow.

please click on the title of this post which will lead to a link of the current situation in Malaysia. thank you very much, Friends =)

UPDATE at 8:25pm 09 January 2010

Arsonists had torched a fourth church today.

Happy New Year 2010

2009-12-31T11:35:00.003+08:00

I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot slip—
He who watches over you will not slumber;

Indeed, He who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The LORD will keep you from all harm—
He will watch over your life;

The LORD will watch over your coming and going

both now and forevermore.

*Psalm 121*

Wishing you peace, joy, love, grace, good health and blessings.

Happy New Year!!! Shalom!

Hymn of Promise

2009-12-17T23:10:00.002+08:00

In the bulb there is a flower
In the seed an apple tree
In cocoons a hidden promise
Butterflies will soon be free
In the cold and snow of winter
There's a spring that waits to be
unrevealed until its season
something God alone can see

There's a song in every silence
seeking word and melody
There's a dawn in every darkness
bringing hope to you and me
From the past will come the future
What it holds, a mystery
unrevealed until its season
something God alone can see

In the end is our beginning
In our time, infinity
In our doubt there is believing
In our life, eternity
In our death, a resurrection
At the last, a victory
unrevealed until its season
something God alone can see

... this was our closing hymn for our worship service on Sunday
the words are so meaningful
the tune is very catchy

Haiku

2009-11-28T22:31:00.002+08:00

Haiku is a three-line Japanese poems of just 17 syllables.

It is a form of literature that captures each moment by expressing all that you feel in short sentences.

Mr Herman van Rompuy, the European Union's new president is fond of writing haiku. He's winning fans in Japan.

There are about two million haiku writers around the world.

Haiku sounds interesting. I might give it a try one day when the creative juices are flowing. It's quite similar to tweeting. Short, sweet and simple. Hmmm...

2009-11-18T22:25:00.000+08:00

It's love,

plain and simple.

Cherish.

The Original Wedding Band, as it should be.

It should be Endless.

For the unbroken circle of our feelings for each other.

It should be Smooth.

For the new journey we embark on together.

It should be Pure.

For all the love today and tomorrow.

Above all, it should be a symbol of Love.

Plain and Simple.

New Day. New Month. New Blessings.

2009-11-01T08:27:00.000+08:00

May today be all you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight, and conquer all your fears.. May God manifest himself today in ways you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered.. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged. I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God.

received the above prayer from a very dear friend through email this morning. it's the best way to start a new month. thank you so much, Merle =)

In the Master's Hand

2009-10-29T14:47:00.000+08:00

we do what we do

because we understand

who we are

before our Master

we are His servants

we work hard

at what we do

because we want to

please our Master

"Well done, good and faithful servant."

Let Go and Let God

2009-10-24T17:29:00.007+08:00

As children bring their broken toys

with tears for us to mend

I brought my broken dreams to God

because He is my friend

But then instead of

leaving Him in peace to work alone

I hung around and tried to help

with ways that were my own

At last

I snatched them back again and cried

"How can You be so slow?"

"My child," He said

"what could I do?

You never did let go."

To Remain Quiet?

2009-10-20T10:45:00.002+08:00

May 2008

His daughter was born.

September 2008

His father had a major stroke.

Today

His father has not met his daughter yet. They live in different countries. The journey is about 45 minutes by aeroplane or 4 hours by car. Yet he has not brought his daughter to meet his father yet. Each time when he and his family were supposed to make the trip to visit his father, they would come out with some reasons and excuses to postpone the trip. Even his father's caregiver mentioned that his father has not met his younger granddaughter yet.

What should I do?

Mind my own business. Keep quiet about it. Be well-liked by them.

Or... share my feelings with them. Be labelled a very busybody relative.

I'm keeping quiet for the moment. They're planning to make the trip in December. I've a very strong suspicion that the trip will be postponed once again.

Our father has lost the ability to speak and walk due to the stroke...

He could be holding on until he meets his youngest grandchild...

Letter H

2009-10-18T20:45:00.000+08:00

Me: I'm feeling hot, humid and hungry.

Child: You're huge and humongous as well.

Me: I'm hug-able too.

HaHa! There goes the cheeky conversation with my kid.

Little Finger

2009-10-04T15:59:00.000+08:00

5am

Woke up. Discovered my left little finger was painful. I could have sprained it without knowing. Went about doing my housework carefully; without inflicting any further pain on it.

10:45am

Shared about the sprained little finger with my child before the start of Sunday Service. She massaged it very gently. Told me very confidently that the little finger will be okay at the end of the service. Bless her trusting faith in our Lord.

2pm

The little finger is perfectly fine. Praise our Lord!

Tragic Day

2009-10-01T14:55:00.000+08:00

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging [Psalm 46:1-3]

This verse speaks to my heart now.

It was a very shocking day yesterday.

Towering tsunami waves which measured 7.5m in height pounded the remote Pacific islands of Samoa and American Samoa after an 8.0-magnitude undersea quake struck in the early morning. At least 113 people were killed as the massive waves wiped out entire villages and flattened tourist resorts.

Typhoon Ketsana extended its trail of destruction across South-east Asia yesterday, killing at least 85 people in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and unleashing some of the worst floods in a decade, just days after Ketsana killed 246 people in the Philippines.

At 6:15pm an 7.6-magnitude earthquake wrecked Sumatra city in Indonesia. It left more than 1,000 people feared dead.

Strong tremors were felt in Malaysia and Singapore as a result of the earthquake in Indonesia.

Another earthquake measuring 7.0-magnitude had just struck Sumatra at 9:52am today. It's the second major quake in the city in 24 hours. Tremors were again experienced in Malaysia and Singapore.

Despite all these current natural calamities, our Lord is still in control. He reigns!

2009-09-30T15:15:00.002+08:00

Finally, Ris Low does the correct thing. She gives up her Miss Singapore World 2009 crown.

There are some things in life where a criminal record, especially one involving dishonesty, simply wouldn't do. Being a representative of your country at an international event is, I think, one of those things.

I wish her the best now that she is no longer in the public eye :)

A Little Email

2009-09-24T21:49:00.004+08:00

"It has been a roller coaster ride today. Received 2 gifts bought with real USD on Pet Society (Facebook) in the morning. So happy! Rejoice! =)))

Cooling weather for Isabelle's outing with her friends. Praise God! =)))

Then received an email addressed to 'ying'. Oh my gosh =S Someone just spelt my name with a 'g' - ying! So ugly. It's not my name. I dislike the name 'ying'. Gonna correct the person.

On the way out for grocery shopping at about noon I saw my things in the open. Someone threw them there. So angry! So furious! Collected them. Put them back into the cabinet. I know who but no proof. This is the third time. I lost some items during the first 2 times. Everyone is on talking terms with me in my neighbourhood. Everyone avoids and ignores her. So who else?! The neighbour whom I had tried sharing God's love with last year. It was a very abusive friendship. I'm avoiding and ignoring her now as advised by my wise friends.

Statement came from the bank. No transactions with Moneybookers. So happy! Do I dare to do online shopping again? HaHa! Very tempted. The items on Pet Society are so cute."

this post is a very informal email which i replied a friend earlier. thought i would just copy and paste it here. i am lazy...

meanwhile we are serving an awesome God. He reigns!

take care =)

2009-09-13T21:08:00.000+08:00

Dear Heavenly Father

May the government treasure every citizen especially the poor, the ugly, the stupid and the unhealthy.
May their policies do not bring short-term benefits with long-term problems for the nation...

Amen!

our Pastor prayed for the nation during service this morning...

Protected from the Rain

2009-09-06T07:10:00.001+08:00

11:45am
it was very bright and sunny as i entered this downtown 4-storey shopping mall to get my annual discount card a few days ago.

12:30pm
it was very dark and gloomy as i stepped out of the building. did i spend the whole day inside?! i asked myself. i thought it was night. haha! no. it was going to rain very heavily. so i hastened my steps to the subway station quickly.

12:50pm
reached my own place. did the necessary grocery shopping immediately before brisk-walking home. my cashier friends at the checkout counters were so kind to offer their umbrellas to me. it warmed my heart tremendously to be shown love, care and concern in their own special ways. bless them! i've an umbrella in my tiny tote bag ^grin^

our Lord is very good. i wasn't caught in the heavy downpour that afternoon...

Answered Prayer

2009-08-28T07:05:00.001+08:00

the Kid has been trying to download a programme onto her laptop since last week. she must use the programme for one of her modules. it was unsuccessful even after many, many tries at home and on campus. her friends tried to help but couldn't download it either. the university office helpdesk tried to download the programme for her but was unsuccessful too.

we were at our wit's end. it is a new laptop. so the fault is not with the laptop. what is the reason then? no one knows.

then one kind senior student said that he would try to download it for her again at 2pm yesterday.

in the morning i texted my friends to pray. lo and behold the Kid managed to download the programme on her own succesfully before 2pm. the Kid addressed my praying partners as "The Praying Aunties Brigade". bless them.

the great joy of an answered prayer immediately! we serve a Living God. Praise Him!

I Stand Amazed in the Presence

2009-08-23T19:59:00.000+08:00

I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner, condemned, unclean.

Chorus:
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
Is my Savior's love for me!

He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary,
And suffered and died alone.

When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see,
’Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me.

We sang this hymn in church this morning.
How marvellous!

There goes my eventful week so far =)

2009-08-11T20:00:00.000+08:00

during my QT yesterday our Lord asked me:

Which is better?

A Christian son-in-law who is so so

or

A non-Christian son-in-law who is a high flyer

i don't know...

Toss and Turn

2009-07-27T07:25:00.000+08:00

i tossed and turned
turned and tossed
on the bed last night

2 events were on my mind
that happened over the day
that kept me awake at night

a neighbour's 52-year-old hubby
passed on naturally but suddenly yesterday morning
diagnosed with cancer only a few days ago
left behind a wife and 2 kids
the youngest is only 8-year-old

then i received a hyper short email in the evening
from a university friend
who is avoided by every mutual friend
who seldom keep in touch with us
out of the blue, she asked "can u buy me something?"

these are the exact words and spelling
neither please nor thank you nor my name
i was appalled

what did she want?
an item on Pet Society
which is a game on Facebook

aiyoyo!
she's looking for the easy way out
we need to collect points by locking into the game daily
use the points to buy items that fancy us
of course i'm ignoring the email
like duh!
educated but please mind your manners

anyway, i'm not bothered by the email anymore
i'll be attending the Catholic wake service tonight
and the funeral on Wednesday

take care...
God loves you!

2009-07-25T20:45:00.001+08:00

a mother strengthens you with her prayers
blesses you with her love
encourages you with her hope

read this short paragraph from the newspaper
it's so true
mother's love is unconditional

Turn Acquaintances into Friends

2009-07-18T15:08:00.003+08:00

Found these tips from the newspaper today:

1. Reach out
One of the best ways to reach out to others is to develop a genuine interest in people. Being gracious and using words like "please" and "thank you".

2. Be courteous to everyone
Be polite and courteous to everyone, be it the cleaner or the boss. Try to be agreeable so others will find it easier to interact with you.

3. Smile
Smile more often. This encourages people to feel happy and good towards you.

4. Use humour
Cultivate a sense of humour and be a fun person. Learn to laugh at yourself.

5. Be energised
Be excited about your life. Be a stimulant. People will find you inviting, interesting, open and expansive.

6. Respect
Try to remember names. Learn how to pronounce their names. Make them feel important. Be discreet, maintain integrity and keep private information confidential.

7. Like yourself
Make friends with yourself.

Reminder: Cannot let anyone bully you...

Daddy and Kids

2009-07-13T06:35:00.003+08:00

it was Youth Sunday in church yesterday. 2 youths shared their testimonies with the congregation. both of them (a boy and a girl) started their testimonies with a sentence on their fathers...

my father left me when i was 3 years old...

I'm not close with my father...

this shows the very crucial role of fathers in the lives of the young people. they need someone to look up to. someone whom they can depend on for love, protection and care. someone whom they can call Daddy. they need unconditional and sacrificial love from their fathers.

Oh Lord! We pray that all the fathers in the world know and understand the importance of their role in the lives of their children. No one can replace them in the world of their children. May they show godly love towards their children. Love that will accept their children for who they're. Children who are precious, unique and special in the eyes of our Lord. Bless the fruits of the fathers. May they be able to provide for the needs of their families. May they depend on You in their family and working lives. Amen!

Here are some statements of wisdom from a woman who recently turned 90 years old. Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio.

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone...

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.

35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is yet to come.

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

a friend emailed the above to me yesterday...

i'm still wondering why i can't upload photos here =P

I Would Be True

2009-06-24T15:39:00.000+08:00

I would be true, for there are those who trust me
I would be pure, for there are those who care
I would be strong, for there is much to suffer
I would be brave, for there is much to dare
I would be brave, for there is much to dare

I would be friend of all - the foe, the friendless
I would be giving, and forget the gift
I would be humble, for I know my weakness
I would look up, and laugh, and love and lift
I would look up, and laugh, and love and lift

I would be prayerful through each busy moment
I would be constantly in touch with God
I would be tuned to hear the slightest whisper
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod
I would have faith to keep the path Christ trod

Our Pastor asked all the men (both young and old) in the congregation to stand and sing this hymn on Father's Day this year. This is so apt. There are some wondering and wandering hearts among them. I'm not refering to anyone in particular... ^grin^

Oops! I did it again...

2009-06-12T19:55:00.000+08:00

everyone has a soft spot
be it a hobby or a collection
guess what mine is

it's very colourful
comes in different sizes
and shapes

it's very useful
every lady needs it
no matter how young ^grin^

i just bought another 2 pieces
brown and pink
both are quite big

yes! handbags!!!
they're so lovely
and useful, right?

share a tiny secret with you...
my handbags come in many colours
except black (surprise?)

So Far So Good

2009-05-23T14:25:00.000+08:00

she had been asking for my mobile number for the past few years
i was very apprehensive and extremely fearful
after all those unpleasant experiences with that particular rude neighbour

she requested for it again a month ago
she said she needed it in case of emergency
since we're neighbours and we stay at home most of the times

then i thought of the other understanding neighbours
who have my number for the past decade
they have been very polite

so i gave my number to her
she was so grateful
she is very polite too

"once bitten twice shy" doesn't apply all the time ^grin^...

Happy Mother's Day

2009-05-10T15:55:00.000+08:00

Nothing compares to a mother's love
She looks with her heart
and feels with her eyes
A mother is the bank where her children
deposit all their worries and hurt
A mother is the cement
that keeps her family together
and her love lasts a lifetime

received the above text message from a friend today =)...

2009-05-07T18:55:00.000+08:00

once in every few days for the past few months
a woman would call my mobile phone from unknown numbers
she would shout *&%^#@
i would just cut off her calls

she called again this morning
woman: *&^%#@
me: *&^%#@ twice louder than her

then i cut off her line
she must be shocked to hear it from me
HaHa! it was fun

a friend told me of this tip
since that woman had been so persistent with her nuisance calls

will she call again?
we'll see

will i repeat this morning's episode?
oh well...

2009-05-06T21:25:00.000+08:00

salmon pasta
HaHa!

Jesus Is Risen!

1 Corinthians 15:3-8 form the heart of the gospel: Christ died for our sins, was buried and rose again on the third day.

Every year, during Holy Week, we seek to remember Jesus' passion, death and resurrection. We celebrate the resurrection life He gives to us and seek to identify with all that He has done for us.

When we celebrate Maundy Thursday, we remember the Last Supper. We remember how He humbled Himself, took the role of a servant and washed His disciples' feet. In doing so, He has set for us an example and challenges us to put aside any sense of grandeur, to be humble and to seek to be of service to others around us.

When we celebrate Good Friday, we remember how He denied Himsself and died on the cross. In spite of our imperfections, we are forgiven, clensed and accepted as children of God. There is no more guilt and condemnation and are challenged to walk right with Him - always seeking to do the right thing.

When we celebrate Easter, we rejoice that we are not alone in our journey of faith. He is alive and with us, guiding, sustaining and enabling us to walk and serve Him faithfully. We are challenged to look beyond our inabilities and at His incomparable great power at work in us and attempt greater things for God.

A Very Blessed Easter to you...

Mathematics tells us three of the saddest love stories:

Of parallel lines, who were never meant to meet.

Of tangent lines, who were together once then parted forever.

And of asymptotes, who could only get closer and closer, but could never be together.
