WOW!! Yest msg by Dr AR Bernard was simply powerful!! was tremendously blessed by what he preaches in service yest!
Many times in life we would always wonder hw would others value us which in turn will results in us having low self esteem and low self worth... but after the msg yest.. my mind is indeed renewed again!! My greatest value in life is indeed my value to God as my value to him will always remain unchanged!!
We always tend to behave the way others wan us to be simply becos we value their opinions on us but the fact of matter is pple will nv value us the way God does becos pple always tend to get emotionally driven as they place their value on us... that means when they are pleased with us our value goes UP, likewise when they get upset with us, our value will goes DOWN! But our value to God will always be the same. Hence with this truth, my self esteem and self worth can no longer be shaken by opinions of pple ard me!
I also learnt that I am God's poem and God wants to express himself in poetic form thru me! He is writing a poem of us everyday and the title is "You"... each and every single one of us..We are indeed his workmanship and we are always on his mind, 24/7.
Blessed. :)

Praise You In This Storm - Casting Crowns
I was sure by now
That You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining
As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as You mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away
I'll praise You in this storm
And I will life my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm
I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry
You raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You
As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away
I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth
Love this song too!! My God is a God who is always with me! My God is a God who nv fails.
Kinda burdened out of a sudden... sometimes i really hope to see all ex cg members come back to church... esp someone who is once very close to me... but I really do not know hw to reach out.... but I know with God, all things are possible!! yayS! Jia you!!

Watched High School Musical today at Cheryl's hse.. their singing was great.... wanted to watch it ever since Shirleen they all sang the song We're all in this together. Tt song was nice... but liked this one more~
Musical: High School Musical
Song: When There Was Me and You
It's funny when you find yourself
Looking from the outside
I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care
I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
Thats coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you
I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
Once upon a song
Now I know your not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
Cause I liked the view
When there was me and you
I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind
Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you

WE ARE THE REASON
AS LITTLE CHILDREN
WE WOULD DREAM OF CHRISTMAS MORN
AND ALL THE GIFTS AND TOYS
WE KNEW WE'D FIND
BUT WE NEVER REALIZED
A BABY BORN ONE BLESSED NIGHT
GIVE US THE GREATEST GIFT
OF OUR LIVES
WE WERE THE REASON THAT HE GAVE HIS LIFE
WE WERE THE REASON
THAT HE SUFFERED AND DIED
TO A WORLD THAT WAS LOST
HE GAVE ALL HE COULD GIVE
TO SHOW US THE REASON TO LIVE
AS THE YEARS WENT BY
WE LEARN MORE ABOUT GIFTS
GIVING OF OURSELVES AND WHAT THAT MEANS
ON A DARK AND CLOUDY DAY
A MAN HUNG CRYING IN THE RAIN
BECAUSE OF LOVE, BECAUSE OF LOVE
I'VE FINALLY FOUND A REASON FOR LIVING
IT'S IN GIVING EVERY PART OF MY HEART TO HIM
IN ALL THAT I DO
EVERY WORD THAT I SAY
I'LL GIVING MY ALL JUST FOR HIM
FOR HIM...
WE ARE THE REASON THAT HE GAVE HIS LIFE
WE ARE THE REASON
THAT HE SUFFERED AND DIED
TO A WORLD THAT WAS LOST
HE GAVE ALL HE COULD GIVE
TO SHOW US THE REASON TO LIVE
HE IS MY REASON TO LIVE

Was touched by Children's church performance yest during service. The song "Kid's prayer" simply melt my heart!The song goes something like this. Teared when I listen to it again. Though a simple song, but it really touches me alot! The song goes something like this
I want to know U Lord, U are a Great Big God
I am Young and do not know alot, come and be my all
I want to love U more, giving U my life and all
U died for me, U sacrificed, I wun forget U Lord
I love U Jesus, I'll grow up knowing U
I love U Jesus, I'll grow up Serving U
I love U Jesus, My life is save by U
I'll Never Forget, Never Forget
I'll grow up loving U
I want to renew the love I had for him once again. I want to have the child-like faith once again, just like those little children who sang this song. As Young as they might be, but their love for God is so pure yet strong. I miss serving children church with Nette!
Was telling Hazel just now hw lonely I felt sometimes, though I have frenz, but many times like wat she say frenz wun be 24/7 with u. But God will, he is always there.
2006 was not really tt fantastic for me. Fell out of jobs again and again, somehw just could not find a job tt is suitable for me. but really thank God tt each time he would provide means of finance for me to survive. Many friendships were put to test, felt like givng up alot of times, even to the extend of breaking up the friendship but each time, God is always there to pull me thru, comforting me, putting other frens in my life to be my comfort and strength.Memories of past broken relationships keep recurring in my mind which leads me into having bad dreams again and again. but i am glad everytime He is there for me again!
On the other hand, Many gd things happen too. I began to open up my life more to pple in the cg. I began to build up frenships with pple whom i nv tot i will be close with in the first place. I have learn more about God's word thru bible study with Gershon!And most importantly, I am baptized!finally i took this step of faith! :)
So here comes some resolutions for 2007
1)To have a closer relationship wtih God
2)To find a job which is really suitable for me and stay on in the job(Gd working Environment,Great Collegues,Understanding Boss,Gd location)
3)To learn more about God's word
4)To be able to play the guitar well
5)To build solid friendships with pple, friendships tt last till eternity
6)To lose weight if i can (haha! Try my best la, every yr resolution, but always nv fulfill :P)
