Recap 2015 part 2

two days ago I attended a lunch meeting with some Christian friends.
as per usual SOP, once I tell them that I am a property agent, the next question will be,
'how was the property market this year?'

they were shocked when I told them plainly that I thought it was good.
personally, I consider it a fruitful year.
of course I have not reached 'top producer' level yet.
the elite group of agents who make hundreds of thousands a year.
but based on my personal history, I actually hit a new record in 2015.

so I learn that indeed he is God who provides.
on the year that I need extra resources to provide for the family need,
he sent me extra provision, just like that.
i did not do anything differently this year. yet He made all the differences.

a man has got to do what a man has got to do.
so being at peace with that.. I learn to embrace the challenge and battle that come my way.
i thank God for He sees that I am worthy of being entrusted with this fight.
and in closing some doors, He forced me to take a different path towards a greater view.

the world is vast.. and filled with enormous possibilities.
what we presumed to be the best possible script to happen in our lives,
may often be merely subplot to a grander scheme in His eyes.
and subplots are not meant to be the climax of any story.

I started 2015 with doubts.
doubt over my worth and determination.
I end 2015 with a restored confidence and steel.

In fact, a confidence greater than anything I ever had before.
A conviction greater than a 20 something David ever had.

as I type this post I finally realise what the year of restoration is all about for me
I kept asking myself..
what is the ultimate thing that God has restored for me in 2015?
Guess He just whispered the answer. :)

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-

Father

I am reading the book "Wild at Heart". One of the most striking points that the author made was that of how many, if not almost all, men are most severely wounded by their own father. You would have thought that your dad will be the one who believes in you when everyone else is doubting you. You expect him to do so. Coz when he does, you know that it ain't matter even if the rest are against you. So when it turns out that he is siding with those who doubt you. It hurts the most. It kills off your hope. It strips you off your courage and belief to be a real man. Because the man who is suppose to show you how to be a real man, the one whose approval matters the most.. does not side with you. He loves you.. yes. But a father's role is not simply to love and nurture. He is more than just that. He is your assurance, stronghold, strength. He leads you into adventure, he fights with you side by side, he shows you how to rescue a beauty. When your father of flesh and blood ca...
