dear september..

must you come this fast? for the last four days, i attend training, everyday from 9-6. Woah.. after more than half a year not working in office, and so many years not attending long hours classes, that was unbelievably tiring. but the trainers were mostly good and not boring. learned many useful stuff, and some of the trainee were quite friendly. for no particular reason, i was drawn to a trainee, not in the way of being attracted to pretty lady. but i thot she was really a nice and comfortable person. and after 4 days together, only today i find out that she is attending city harvest church. well actually she was the one who first asked if i were a christian, as she saw me praying when we had our lunch today. we went on talking about church stuff, and i told her of my amusement that they are now singing true worshippers songs a lot. she told me that she loves sidney mohede, and she LOVES his song. 'captivated'. she said that was the song that caught her. wow.. some Christians ...

If you are really different, you don't have to tell the whole world that you are. They will notice. You don't have to intentionally make yourself different, if you are really unique. This world has too many people who follow the crowds, because they don't have courage to do otherwise. We all know that. But I am convinced that this world also has many people who rebel and go against the crowds, just for the sake of it. They thought that's how they gain their identity. Some people are too afraid of being different, while the others are too afraid of being normal. none is better than the others..

Harilal

I still remember one of the movies we watched during my english course days, Hmm.. in fact a couple of them left quite a strong impression, for some reasons. those classics such as 'my fair lady' and 'hamlet', and that rather long movie about the Jewish family on exile (forgot the title), they were all memorable. and there is another one which truly inspired me, gandhi. the movie was my first encounter with this outstanding character. and today, i happened to saw this movie entitled 'gandhi, my father'. i never knew about Harilal Gandhi before. only today did i find out that gandhi's eldest son, Harilal, was such an interesting character. he was said to be an enigmatic man who assisted his father in their resistance movement. but he eventually clashed with his great father, severed all ties with his family, and went on a self-destruct journey on his own. but he went to gandhi's funeral, though no one noticed him in such a messed up state. such was the re...

here and there

tomorrow is my M9 exam date, finished reading it, but really.. i just couldn't fall in love with them, all these financial stuff.. the only thing that keeps me going is my curiosity and also, the fact that daniel chua that day, when he prayed for me, he spoke of the annointing to create wealth. precisely at the time when i was asking God about this. so i am walking by faith, faith in the God who is able to empower me with the annointing to create and manage wealth. amennn!! oh yeah.. now that we are no longer coming up with foem, we got a new project brewing, and this is our blog. click here >> it was a newborn, so give it sometime to build up ya. and here, a quite nice song, ost of bleach movie. there is inexplicable beauty, in the eyes that were ready to give everything,. in the laughter that holds nothing back, in the story that ends too fast, and eternal love sealed by death.
National Day aside, can someone tell me if there is anything special today, religion-wise? coz my 'pai piak' neighbour has been 'liam keng'-ing since last night. bukannya gua SARA seh, tapi susah tidur juga kalo ky gini caranya. oh my gosshh.. ato jgn2... ada yg gugur disebelah? =|

Faith in Single Stone

last sunday, i shared with my housemates how God taught me to have faith in one stone. i was suppose to bring my clients to view two houses last sat, but i also had to go for practice coz i was worship leading. i only had time for one house, and that house's location was quite isolated. the second house was much better in location, but i would miss the practice if i brought them there. i began to wonder how i suppose to close this deal, and i also felt bad to these tenants coz they needed a place quite urgently. but God whispered to me, "david only needed one stone to kill goliath. if I am willing, that one house, against all odds, is enough. have faith in that single little stone." so i obeyed. i brought them there, and left for practice. i knew that my main mission on that day was to give my best as worship leader, not a property agent. and God.. He proved His words. They were happy with the house, and we got it. it takes one stone, just one stone.. but today it is prov...

National Day Treetop Walk

Finally got to experience the treetop walk, with fellow colleagues, and geezz... i am like the youngest ones among all the uncles heh. But these uncles are much fitter than me =P And they tell me a lot of interesting stories of their national service days. I think it will be fun to camp out at MacRitchie and play some 'army games' there heh.
While we are moving towards the bangs and woahs of planetshaker style, it is quite funny that as i watch chc's service, i find them singing True Worshippers' songs, in english of course. And they do not simply translate, they give the songs new meaning, and at times, better ones. There were three songs that i recognised from the last service that I watch, 'Ku kan terbang', 'Walau seribu rebah..' (forgot the title), and my recent favorite, a servant's heart (forgot the indo title). well it proves that for God, methods and styles are secondary. what matters the most is the substance, His heart. what matters is the person, whether God is moving thru that person, the method can be anything. be it a rod, or a stone, a robe, handkerchief, shadow, or a cross. be it planetshakers, true worshippers, or *ehem*.. symphony music. and the substance of our Christianity is our faith in God. and the substance of our faith is our encounter with God. without that experience, ...

Arsenal This Season

I have not written much about Arsenal, and have abandoned my arsenal's blog for almost two years. because I did not think we would win anything for the last two seasons. Although we were quite close last season. But this season, I have a different feeling. I feel that we will win something important this season. maybe its the league title, or the Champions League title. Because there is something different this time around. The balance is right. That's the words. We are not significantly stronger than last season, and I know that Man Utd, Pool and Chelski have all gotten stronger as well. But we got the right balance this time around. And I would love to look back to this post a year later, knowing that I got it right. This is the same feeling that I had when I thought France would win the 1998 World Cup, and that Spain would win the 2008's Euro. But this season, I feel that Cesc Fabregas will not be the one that shines the brightest. It could well be a 16 years old named J...
he has never been the best of followers, he has never been one of your most talented, most outstanding, most righteous ones. you see him stuck in the mud of sin, more often than you witness him basking in your glory. and his heart has not been too faithful as well, sigh.. he is probably not even ten percents of what your beloved psalmist was. but at your word, even if he is dragging along his weaknesses, even if he stumbles more than he makes another step forward, as long as you give that single nod.. and the slightest of your approving smile.. david will go.

'J'

hohoho.. as I promised to some of you, here is the one that i've been talking about. now it's your part to decide which is her ^^ bombie, not from you yah. erm and .. for a very remote possibility of the person in question end up seeing this blog..

eXams

i have signed up for yet another exam, this time its M9, the last one to clear for any insurance agent wannabe. i am pretty sure you won't find me on the street selling insurance heh. as far as i am concerned, i am curious. but it feels good, nowadays if any insurance agent approach me, i just happily tell them "eh, same line here". end of conversation. how convenient =D after M9, I will prepare for my property agency certification. now this is the serious one. this one is quite tough. must study hard! but it's time the scholar side of me re-emerge hoho ^^ *semangat PRC* when i graduated, i knew very clearly that one job i will never do was 'sales'. and here i am. i used to tell dian that i do not want to be a worship leader, and here i am. i never thought i would leave 'this', and here i am. this is getting more and more interesting. freedom is truly a wonderful thing. when you understand the truth, the truth truly shall set you free. set you free fro...

Freedom

"I am William Wallace. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny! You have come to fight as free men. And free man you are! What will you do without freedom? Will you fight?" "Two thousand against ten?" - the veteran shouted. "No! We will run - and live!" "Yes!" Wallace shouted back. "Fight and you may die. Run and you will live at least awhile. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may take our lives but they will never take our freedom!" *taken from brave heart- speech at Falkirk* His countrymen would eventually fight the Falkirk war, and lost to the English. Wallace's army lost the battle, lost their lives, but never their freedom. Given chance to say his last word before he was prosecuted, Wallace shouted "Freedooooommm!!!" There ...
