Okay so supposedly I was suppose to start work today ? But I didn't and the person said she'll call us and stuff . So whatever . But thank God larh , if I would have to work today then I'll miss the membership class . Haha we started with praise then followed by a mathematical game(I totally sucked) LOL ! And everyone sort of used the same technique . Then pastor Shirely was telling us her own background and Hope church's background . Super cool can , I never knew that Hope church has branches in other country . And yeah , was fun and interesting . Then , I left there about 5 , the rest ate and thought about the talent thing ? Yeah.. Anyway , yesterday druing quiet time I learnt about compassion and so on . Luke 10:30-35 30 In reply Jesus said:"A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31 A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32 So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33 A Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 32 He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. 35 The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the inn keeper. 'Look after him,' he said,'and when I return,I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.' When I read this I was so amazed that the man was so willing to go more than an extra mile for a stranger . And it really shows something about him . To be willing to take care of him . I think we should all learn from him , if anyone is in need , regardless of how much you like the person , we should always help the person to the best of our ablities . And he was doing what Jesus did for us , he took compassion on us , He died on the cross for us when we were still sinners . Luke 10:40-42 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked,'Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!" 41 "Martha, Martha," the Lord answered,"you are worried and upst about many things, 42 but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better,and it will not be taken away from her." And I think Jesus was saying that all He wanted was just for Martha to listen to Him like what Mary did . And I think He didn't care about any of the preparations but He just wanted to share God's word and do what He came to do . And yeah.. It really struck me because we're always so concern about things but are they what we should be concerned about ? Especially since we live in Singapore , everything is so fast and it's not easy to keep up . Studies are becoming more and more complex , you need certificates of all sorts to get a job and everything . Singapore is progressing super fast and yeah we do need to be able to catch up . But I think God wants to remind us of what is more important and not to forget what your goals are .

The Girl;
I love God,my family,friends & everyone else .
I'm currently serving in the usher ministry .
My shepherd is Chua Wenzhen Joy .
My care group is NEA1 .
I'm trying to learn the guitar .
My cca is drama .
Life Transformation;
Before I knew God , I was a petty,
Impatient,spoiled,ungrateful,unreasonable,ah lian wanna-be.
I had no dreams , no idea where I was heading and no purpose.
But I didn't want to be alive for no reason.
I've always thought that I was useless.
It would have been better that I wasn't alive.
But I didn't want to die just yet.
Because I knew that life was precious.
I continued to search for meaning,purpose and reasons.
And last christmas I was invited to Yhope.
I grew up in a catholic school.
I knew God then but I never had a relationship with Him.
At that time , my results were already out and my school was already chosen.
I was going to Deyi.
At first I wasn't really committed to God.
And I had some parental objection.
But Wenzhen was assigned to be my shepherd.
She helped me to overcome my objection and she encouraged me to be more committed.
And she never gave up on me , she is one of the reasons why I've changed so much.
Yes she's naggy but it's really great to have a shepherd like her.
And I thought of it , somehow everything linked.
I never studied for PSLE but I got 220.
I was never accepted in Holy Innocent.
But in Deyi.
My god sister asked me to come but she never made it in.
At first it was hard.
But I got used to it.
Everything made sense to me.
Why I scored how much I scored.
Why I came Deyi.
Why my mother allowed me to go out that day.
If I hadn't gone out with my friends.
I would have never met Hui Xuan,Chantel or Grace they all.
I would have not converted.
And I wouldn't have what I have today.
Deuteronomy 4:29
But if from there you
Seek the LORD your God,
You will find him if you
Look for Him with all your heart
And will all your soul.
I searched for God.
And He made a way for me.
He had a better plan for me.
It was just the beginning of a new found life.
I want to dedicate this blog to God.
All of you who hasn't known God yet.
I really encourage you to do so.
It will really be the best decision you ever make.
He will never leave nor forsake you.
He will never short change you.
He will never fail you.
Psalm 118:1
Give thanks to the Lord,
for He is good;
His Love endures forever.
