Sing Your Song

I had the opportunity to be part of the Good Friday and Easter production in church this year. My first time being on stage in church other than on the worship team (literally) and I had the chance to see many different characters from a new perspective. Good Friday signifies Jesus' death on the cross for us. because we are all sinners, even a small white lie is a sin. so, we have to pay the price for our sins. whether its lying, or stealing, or murder, a price has to be paid. but Jesus loves us  so much, that he paid it all for us on the cross. the price of salvation is not cheap! it cost his life! let me tell you in all honesty, no one else would do that for you and me. The amount of pain and suffering he had to go through before dying was unbearable even for the people observing. Its not as easy as put a bullet through my head and die instantly. it is slow death. but he did it. for you and for me. all because he loves us.  Even after so many years watching the movie 'The

Sorry for this delayed post. I know I should have blogged this earlier but I was too busy planning Wai Leem's birthday and also Chinese New Year. So thank you to my faithful readers for bearing with me. So where do I begin? People were planning for my birthday I know, thanks to some not really good actors :P When Luke called me to book me for my birthday, I was reluctant, fearing my friends would have something planned out for my birthday on the 20th night. so i just kinda asked him to confirm with Vish or Hannah. He still insisited he wanted to take me out on the 20th night. which was weird cause if you ask me, Luke is always more understanding than that. He always gives in. But i didn't think much about it. Then on Sunday night, James and Jason gave me my first birthday gifts. James even suggested that Jason, Joshua, Hannah, him and I go out on monday night for my birthday (good move, James) I didn't suspect a thing then. Then on Monday in class, everyone just wished

Words mean a lot. When it brings news, when it corrects, when it is spoken, or when it is written. I speak a lot (more than I should hahhah!) but what do I speak about?? When God speaks, we all hear. Why? because His words give meaning to life. God spoke to me a few months ago through my youth leader, pastor now. He said to me things that were reassuring and also things that didn't seem possible given the circumstance. One of the many things He said was, '' I am going to prosper your studies and whatever that you are doing, that was just the beginning.'' I went like, WHOA! first and foremost, I don't do well in my studies. My grades are just average. But next thing you know, I am mouthing out the answers to my lecturer's questions which I've never really done before. First question would be, where did my confidence come from? Second question, where did those answers come from? And when God told me that whatever I was doing was just the beginning, I got

Ephesians 5:2 Let love be your guide. How many times have we done something because we do it out of love, and not out of duty? How often do we call home because we care and not because we have to? how many times we helped somebody because we love that somebody? Ephesians 5:4 Dont use dirty or foolish or filthy words. How filtered are our words? from what we speak, do people see Christ-likeness? do people know that we are prince and princesses from the way we speak? I personally realized at one time, i use the word s*** alot. maybe due to peer influence, but i didnt notice it until someone pointed it out. then that time, it got me thinking, is it okay to speak like that? a lot of Christians speak like that anyway. But it all boils down to.. what would people think? so the million dollar question is....... Do we need to care what others think about us? I already have my answer. what is yours? the answer is in the second part of the next verse. 'You can be sure people who behave th

2013 was quite a bittersweet year for me. so many things happened. In 2013, I went to Langkawi and Ipoh and truly enjoyed myself and also in 2013, I was baptized in water which is quite significant for me. In 2013, I got close to people I didn't even think I have anything to talk about with. But the Lord has shown His faithfulness by seeing me through the storms of the year. In 2013, I've had major setbacks. Caused by myself mostly. Those are I wouldn't say things I can do without because each incident taught me something. I've learned new things about myself too! like how impatient and how unforgiving I can be. This year really put my patience to the test and my willingness to forgive was greatly challenged. I never knew it was THIS hard to forgive. the reason I didn't know it before was because I was never THAT deeply hurt. But amidst the commotion, God was always there to remind me that He forgave me although there were so many times I hurt Him. Proof of His love
