Learnings

In walking everyday, there are actually so many windows of learning, even up to the simplest learning or re-learning of
placing Him 1st,
patience while queuing instead of sulking
embracing the silence in the wilds travelling,
give thanks & look positive instead of whining about what couldn't be done
actively finding time set aside for my Maker
Intercessory prayers,
preparing ahead,
thinking before speaking,

this year is coming to a close, so what have we done with the life we had this year?
How have we seen the goodness of the Lord working amongst us, not necessarily on us this year?

Have a blessed week counting down to the thanksgivings my friends(:

walking how far?

counting the days from the last entry,
17 days just whizzed by, like how time passed setting up the things at my new school these few days.

Yesterday was day 1 at Holland Drive officially after 2 months odd at Jurong West. leaving missing these children who gave me joy that comes with the anger&frustration that taught me as a teacher to manage their child-like nature.

watching very hard God moving in the midst though i'm blinded/distracted a lot from the physical fatigue, things on my mind to hold on that I have this fear of fading if I took it off too long.
just the lack of discipline to pen down my thoughts that I have with my Father
cos I realised the memory of mine is very temporary.
Was walking home monday night without a flat phone,
thinking back what I saw in the
Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader past friday.

Apart from 'WAH's & other sound effects that accompanied my seat in all movies so far:X

It struck me when they began the voyage, where they were forewarn of temptations, portrayed in smoky green things that slowly seek to engulf you,buzzing around you.
I was like, don't you just want these things to just not appear in the first place and all the struggle to stay strong need not take place, but that's actually what we encounter in life walking the journey isn't it?
with perseverance & 'Aslan' revealing Himself to steer you back.

And when Aslan, dug the claws into the sand, roared at Eustace disintegrating the 'dragon scales' on the outside
reminded me of the time when Corney saw sharing from Isaiah 53:5 in his summary that
" by his stripes, impossible is nothing." from the 3 stripes in the sand.

which actually had the description of the moment Aslan ws brought to the stone to be killed by the ice queen in the 1st movie before he was resurrected.


the next part of thougts
revolved around relationships with people dear to me,

the significance/purpose of the trip to Cambodia, taking myself out of being like this
'I know what's it like to be there' mindset and clearly seeking what He's saying to me.
before it continued, prayer followed in& I reached the lift for an interruption.

My heart to quieten with my Maker
Blessed week my dear friends(:

High Seas!

The journey begins, we're all getting in, into the Word of God!

that's the 1st line of the song that will greet us at each session at Vacation bible School.
I thank God for allowing me to be part of the time spent there, tasked to shared about the life of Peter, Paul, all the people with 'p's in their names.
And also, spend the time with HIM each morning for my recharging before we busily get into the mode of things. Witness His movement when the group of believers gather to pray and intercede.
This will not last as a 'Spiritual high' only, but a reminder even as we con't to walk daily with Jesus(:

Let the Vast Voyage begin...

The Greatness of His Creation & Forgiveness



Give me eyes to see
More of who You are
May what I behold,
still my anxious heart.
Take what I have known
And break it all apart
For You my God, are greater still.


No sky contains,
No doubt restrains,
All You are,
The greatness of our God.
I spend my life to know,
And I'm far from close
To all You are,
The greatness of our God.


Give me grace to see
Beyond this moment here.
To believe that there
Is nothing left to fear.

That You alone are high above it all.
For You my God, are greater still.


And there is nothing
That can ever separate us.
There is nothing that can ever
separate us from Your love.
No life, no death, of this I am convinced.
You my God, are greater still.


And no words can say, or song convey,
all You are the greatness of our God.
I spend my life to know,
And I'm far from close
to all You are,
the greatness of our God

I was spoken to through the song, Thank you Lord(:
Did you?

just browsing through my list of posts randomly, looked back at the one where I talked about attending the seminar at Scripture Union on organising Children's Camps on May 3rd 2010.

reminder to self for what is to be done at camp, not just 'talk' about it.

Have a blessed week my dear friends(:

Lifting my praise

From the mountains, to the valleys,
hear our praises rise to You
From the heavens to the nations
Hear the singing, fill the air


Will always be researching for actions for the Kaboom Worship songs on Youtube especially on Fridays,even Saturday nights. & the number of potential songs and actions I get surprised and excited over at while looking for the ones that I was suppose to just makes me go 'Wow'.
An art form to praise God.

So just clicking and clicking, you find old songs you heared from Life Meetings at Campus Crusde during your polytechnic days, or from some devotion, praise time you had somewhere with a group of brothers and sisters in Christ to Praise God.

So I found one, and Darlene Zschech then, Darlene Zschech now,
but this time the Lead worshipper that has gradually pushed the next generation up,
passing the mantle.

Remembering Elijah doing so with Elisha before he was brought up to heaven.
And what i need to do.

Hear our Praises-Hillsongs

Being sharper



"Just like pencil, it needs 'sharpening for it to serve its great purpose of inking its writer's thoughts, sketches on paper"

a quote along these lines I remembered 1 of the students with the
Wheelock Degree Programme at
Ngee Ann Polytechnic.

The buzz of joining an exciting programme, with lots of learning which everyone came out telling, asking myself, "Am I ready for such a programme?"

Where is my Lord calling me to?
He'll show me(:
many things to see
