..my battle stance..

for so many things that start brightly as the morning star only time would stand to testify whether it will vanish or explode into eternity

Magnificent. You guys did such a great job. Proud of you all =) More to come.. more to come.. Go TLG!

Woah.. another unexpected case closed. Just like the Tribeca case.. I still need the signature.. and my heart kept thumping.. what if this.. what if that.. Call it paranoia.. or lack of trust.. but listening to some horrible swindling stories in this property business.. I can't help worrying. But at the end of the day.. I want to learn to completely trust in God's protection.. and to be completely at peace. knowing that He is in charge and He will bring this case to close. Sigh.. sometimes it's easier said than done ya =) nonetheless.. i will learn to be still. and know that He is GOD. and I will praise my God.. for He has shown His faithfulness once again. pheww... right after that roller coaster moment.. A message arrived.. along with the messenger. a surprise that makes me smile.. truly grateful knowing that i am greatly blessed ^^

I just read some stuff.. Two pieces of thot, from two different persons, both of whom are friends dear to me. The first one sounds like an advise from a good ol friend. Thank you.. whether you mean it or you don't =) I am a slow learner, if you ever notice. So.. be patient with me.. and pray for me.. would you? ;) The second one reminds me of this beautiful truth.. of possibly 9-10 people who are truly close to my heart, three quarter of them are not the ones I see in church, three quarter of them are not the ones I meet most regularly. i am not sure if i use the term 'close to my heart' correctly. by that.. i mean.. those who do not need to try hard to put themselves on my shoes. they just got it.. in one way or another. maybe when we meet someone too often, when we know someone for too long and we care too much.. we end up knowing more and understanding less.. i dunno... (^_____^) maybe sometimes distance keeps us in perspective, because we could see the bigger picture.. ...

gloomy evening.. down there.. they are chanting. chanting for the dead. right here.. i am thinking. thinking of the living. life turns out to be slightly more complicated than death.

Lee Kuan Yew works in room with 16 celsius degree temperature. So I was told.

Ring… Caller: Hi there, I would like to find out how long it will take to fly from Singapore to LA? Reply: ONE minute Sir. Caller: Fantastic! Thank you! Heh.. I found this funny, its from zuji's email. Reminds me of a real conversation between a taxi driver and his passenger. I mentioned to a taxi driver that sometimes I am amused by drivers who ask me which way i wish to take to reach my destination. When I ask them which is better.. they would tell me "up to you lah". I was like.. "hello.. who's the driver here?" And this driver told me he once asked a Caucasian passenger this question. And the passenger replied, "Can you fly?"

Nevertheless I am continually with You; You hold me by my right hand. Psalm 73:23 Fully conscious of his own lost state and of the deceitfulness and vileness of his nature and thoughts, King David sang, “Nevertheless I am continually with You.” “Nevertheless”—notwithstanding all the foolishness and ignorance that he had just been confessing to God, David knew beyond a shadow of doubt that he was saved, accepted, and blessed by the constant presence of God. What this means for us is that as believers, we too need to be like David and know for a fact that since we belong to Christ, we are continually with God.

we can forgive you, because we are strong enough, and we hope one day you will be strong enough, to forgive yourself. maybe only with the passing of time, we could look back and understood, how foolish we were, and how we have grown somewhat wiser now. we don't retaliate, because that's God's business. and we believe that God is gracious enough, to always forgive you.

"There is a meaning behind every action of a girl" - Karin, Say Hello for Me. Happened to watch this j-movie last night. A simple feel-good movie with some nice music and skies.. those you expect to find in japanese movies. There are stuff in the movie that got me thinking. In our lives.. we meet, get to know, and make friends with lots and lots of people. And for each of them.. there is that particular scene, time, place, and situation.. when that person first, truly.. enter into our lives. it's not necessarily the first time you get to know each other's name. it's the time that person officially gain a spot in your heart. and then for certain people, there will be another moment.. when you finally keep them in the most sacred spot of your heart. i used to wonder.. how would that moment be.. for my encounter with the one i have been waiting for.. turns out that.. it's truly worth the wait.

Bro Niko said a simple stuff that still lingers on my mind today. I am one of those who are guilty of sometimes dozing off when he preaches but actually, that has more to do with his tone rather than the content because his preaching are often good. today he said.. righteousness brings peace.. and peace.. brings joy. but where does our righteousness come from? God Himself.. is our righteousness. (psalm 24:5) God.. as we know.. is what the world will never take away from us. no one and nothing could take Him away from us and thus.. no one and nothing could take our righteousness, peace and joy from us. we face persecution and judgment every day and yet.. Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us. For I am persuaded beyond doubt that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be ab...

football is the most important unimportant things in the world. so myles palmer said. i simply have to agree. i just watched my beloved arsenal getting hammered. after the first few impressive games, they suddenly turned into rubbish. but it's okay.. coz we got many things that are more important in life. so i'll just wait till they become good again. went to another wedding today. this one is without fancy performances we have been seeing for the last 4-5 weddings. suddenly it felt weird haha. but it's good coz we go straight to the important matters. and it finished at 10 PM instead of 11 something. i realise that i have not been congratulating anyone in my blog but well.. the couples are not reading anyway.. and i suppose for the ones who read, you are my close friends who have received my wishes after all. been talking to friend(s) who are thinking of quitting their job and start their own business. some ask me how it was like when i quit and became a property agent. we...

Sounds like a good one ;)

In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, O Lord, will keep me safe. (NLT) At day's end I'm ready for sound sleep, For you, God, have put my life back together. (The Message) Psalm 4:8 Oyasumi ;)

You're blessed when you've lost it all. God's kingdom is there for the finding. But it's trouble ahead if you think you have it made. What you have is all you'll ever get. You're blessed when you're ravenously hungry. Then you're ready for the Messianic meal. And it's trouble ahead if you're satisfied with yourself. Your self will not satisfy you for long. You're blessed when the tears flow freely. Joy comes with the morning. And it's trouble ahead if you think life's all fun and games. There's suffering to be met, and you're going to meet it. Luke 6: 17-21, 24-25

i was looking for a pair of socks this morning, apparently.. that is only slightly easier than solving physics Olympic questions. there was 17 socks in my drawer, and none of them are a pair. i wonder what happen to their partner. and why don't they disappear together? the missing socks is the mystery that i have yet to understand in my entire life. another mystery that is slightly less challenging, is the one-dollar-kids. few days ago, we met a kid who seemed to be playing happily on his own, and then out of sudden, he smiled to us, and then asked for 1 dollar. he was lucky, i had 1 dollar in my pocket. today a girl seemed to be playing happily on her own, and out of sudden, she spoke to me, and then asked for 1 dollar. she was unlucky, i told her i have given the 1 dollar to her friend. she was bemused, "which one?" she asked. "it was a boy, i dunno" i told her. i wonder if they work under the same 'company'. their technique was similar, a bit like the...

it's more easy to feel for someone's sadness, than to share his/her happiness. we, human.. are truly.. fragile and flawed. that's what you would realise when you read book like 'love worth giving'. and after reading it, looking at yourself and realising you are still pretty much the same.. slightly better but not entirely.. you realise that the book is not enough. so more important than all these.. is to forgive and be forgiven. because we won't see a day when everyone is good enough that no one need forgiveness from anyone anymore. not until the end of this world as we know it.

Not too emotional, but interesting.. It makes you wonder if it's better to know the future, when you can't really do anything to change a single thing. And what if you do not know the future? Will you take the chance to love? You would. You love.. not because you know.. but because you believe. Time Travel and Love.. are both inexplicable, and fascinating.

One of the most intriguing biblical questions for me is: Who is Melchizedek ??? or rather.. What kind of being is Melchizedek? The bible says that Melchizedek had no beginning or ending. He had no record of genealogy. And yet.. he seemed to be human. Supernatural one, apparently. In many ways.. he was the blueprint of the coming Savior, Christ. But they seem to be different people. So.. if Melchizedek is human, not Christ, and has no ending.. that means.. there is a chance that... he is still living among us? :P

For an encouragement read this

this path we are taking, it's not easy and at times.. we are bleeding with wounds and yet.. we are standing still. for even though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death His perfect love is casting out fear! all of our lives.. in every season, He is still God.. that's why we are singing.. that's why we surrender in worship. for beyond the storm and rain, there is rainbow waiting and following the darkest hour of the night, is the blue morning sky

just spoke to a 'friend who decline to be named' regarding her problems with her so-called boyfriend. well.. not really problems.. just some issues that they need to agree on. one of the funny stuff she mentioned was the 'love vs career' issue. she said.. "well we girls do like guys who focus on their careers.. but then.. we also hate it when they prioritize their career and break their promises to us". so this is what i believe.. "we are all simply trying to do our best for the ones we love. but the way we do it.. it's different from one person to another. just because he put his career first does not mean he loves you any lesser. and just because a guy put his love first does not mean he care about his career any lesser" we are only imperfect human, you see.. and in attempting to love.. we try, stumble, broken, got up.. and try again. if the world ain't applauding our love.. so be it. coz we are no heroes, no saviors. well maybe you got som...

And what about the laughter The happy ever after Like voices of sweet angels Calling out our names
