it has been a long tym!

[ /edit ]

cont'd from previous post:

had lunch over at clarkequay after service.

spent lots of quality tym fellowshipping wit clara and LOVE.

it has been a really tym since i've talked to th 2love-ly!

soyeah, today was great!! :DDDDDDDDD

slacked over at kopitiam @ central lvl4.

th way clara slps -- HILARIOUS!

anyways, off to hg mall wit LOVE after waiting th rest arrived.

had a longlonglonglonglong chat wit her,

that apparently does not seem to end. no matter how long/how much we talked.

it feels lyk thr's neverending topics for us to talk abt!!!

we talk from th slight-li-es thngs to matters that are close to our heart.

it jus does not fail to brightened up my day, having to spend it wit LOVE.

it feels lyk we have known each other for say -- eternity. (:

will be out wit her tmr at town,

looking for cute/kiddy/practical stuff! (:

can't wait can't wait CAN'T WAIT! it has been soooooooooo long! :DDDD

i knw LOVE will be reading this!!!! soooooooo............

I LOVE YOU LYK THIS THIS THIS MUCH! :DDDDD

prayer! (:

okays, i'm back from th busy + slack day again! (:

church in th morning,

was kinda lazy to find somethng nice to wear,

so just grabbed class shirt plus my black skinnies; chang-ed and out i go.

reached babe's hse reali early, and went off to fetch NZ's friend for church.

service was awesome today! praise + worship was indesribable! :DDD

pst K preached abt th power of prayer today:

*it was just inspiring! :D

1) TEMPTATIONS are overcome thru prayer.

2) heart is SOFTENED towards God thru prayer.

3) God is FOUND thtu prayer.

4) life gets REFRESHED thru prayer.

5) soul is ENCOURAGED thru prayer.

6) PERSISTENCE is built thru prayer.

7) th holy spirit EMPOWERS you thru prayer.

8) ANXIETY is defeated thru prayer.

9) REVIVAL comes thru prayer.

10) you will SHAKE th world thru prayer.

okays, i found it quite true.

i'm sure everyone has experienced th power of prayer in their life.

even for those who are non-believers or do not have any religion.

at moments of difficulties, thr'll sure be a cry out for help in ur heart,

and at that point tym, most will say " Oh My God! pls help me. this is terrible."

thru this, to me it's alrdy a form of praying -- but not an "official" one.

to me, when a person say that, he/she is alrdy confessing that he/she has a prob,

and thus need a problem solver.

thou lots says we shldn't use God's name in vain,

but in this context -- to me. it's a form of confession.

using God's name in vain, means using God's name to do things

that are not pleasing to th Lord's eyes.

soyeah, i feel that whatever i've pointed out does make sense; somehow.

what do you think? any views? (:

wake up call! ARH!!!

heyo earth-lings!

i just realised that my blog has been lyk dieing for quite a loonnnnngggggg tym alrdy!

so updates from here and thr;

i don't think thr'll be any structure in a way or another.

okays, so here's what happened during the past few weeks that i've gone MIA.

1) STUDYING! STUDYING! STUDYING!!!

since exams was 2wks ago. & all i did was study study and more studying.

but yeah, th good thng was i slept at 9pm every night! (:

2) GETTING BACK RESULTS

horrandous!(sp?) rubbish! terrible! horrible! vegetables! DISAPPOINTING!

mayb cos th papers was tough? but th teachers claim-ed other wise. if so,

why did th cohort did overall badly? sometyms i wonder why i just don't do

as well as HER! mayb cos' i'm dumb or wat? or mayb i'm just stubborn and jus

refuse to put in th extra effort jus to study harder and make sure tt i'm lyk soooooo

sure abt tt particular subject that i'm studying?

or mayb cos i'm just not as smart and hardworking.

okays, conclusion? i deserve it! i choose to compete against

someone that i can't even smell th air or sweet aroma that

she's smelling and breathing in.

period.

3) KEYBOARD PRACS!

okays, so most of u knw that i'll be one of the keyboardist

for the upcoming breakaway

camp that is in 3weeks tym. no wait -- it's camp PHENOMENA!(sp?) haha.

just learnt it from steph when i'm over at her hse for keyboard on friday.

it's not that easy for me to adapt i think.

cos i was kinda struggling trying to get into the move/feel.

sorry uh steph! kinda tough to coach me. i'm kinda a slow learner.

but yeah, i was indeed hardworking. at least i tried and figured out th chords &

all on my own. but only for a particular song la. t

ried a few songs on that day. & steph told me to prac on 5songs that

we will be practicing wit garvin over at his place

on wed/thurs night. and yes, cos why? c

amp is just 3WEEKS AWAY! ARH!

i'm getting kinda nervous and haywire, c

os i haven't tried leading a whole grp before -- what's more, in praise and worship.

GOSH! i'm oso kinda excited to find out who's in my grp

for th camp. last yr i was in GIDEON & santy's my grp leader!

who will it be this yr? haha (:

4) JARED & JERBLINN'S WEDDING!

J&J wedding ceremony over at SG art museum --glass hall,

was awesome and touching.

everybody was dressed up.

sisters in dresses + makeup ; brothers in their shirts + ties.

it was indeed a touching moment for most of us.

was practically holding onto LOVE's arms throughout th whole ceremonial.

from th beginning when pst D made J&J say their vows to

th end when th video montage was showed! haha.

kinda retarded for me to do such thng.

but yeah, it's just me!

CONGRATULATION J&J! HAVE A BLESSED MARRIAGE!!!! :DDDDD

okays, i tink th post it's lyk getting kinda wordy alrdy,

soyeah, updates will be more often!!!

stay tune!! :DDDDDD

mid-yrs! dreads!

hello wello earth-lings!!!! (:

i'm feeling better i suppose, apart from th bad cough i'm suffering now.

ohgosh! i can't stand the weather this few days,

it's lyk so so so so so so so so so so soso so so HOT! HUMID!! :(

okays, anyways, enligsh social studies chinese emaths/amaths paper 1 is officially over!!!

reali thank God for giving me strength throughout this period of tym

when i'm down with bad headaches and fever-ish temperature esp during english and ss papers.

was practically on the verge of giving up during those papers

cos i could hardly concentrate and think straight.

when english paper1 started first thng in th morning,

my head was really spinning, hurting --- it was as if a hammer was knocking into it.

my head was really hanging heavy. :(

and as usual before the start of every test or exams,

i'll say a short prayer asking God's grace to come upon me,

and asking the holy spirit to guide me thru th paper that i'm gg to sit for.

at th start, it doesn't seem to work at all.

so i just tolerated th pain and all, & continued doing th paper.

as i could not squeeze out any brain juice on wat to write for compo,

i started on situational writing first --- it was a fairly alright topin to write abt.

then i went back to compo and guess wat, i wasted 3papers just on the starting.

oh btw, i wrote on "DREAMS".

i didn't know how to start, and seriously had no inspiration for anythng.

so just randomly wrote somethng, and somehow it progresses to

a story that i tink can enable myself to score (:

YAY!!!! PTL! :DDDDDDDDDDD

soyeah, anyways.

5papers down. and i screwed both my a/emaths.

but for the other papers that i've alrdy taken,

i've fairly high confidence that i can secure my scores and do up to my expectations! (:

-----------------------------------------

L1R4 = 10pts! L1R5 = 12pts! I'M COMING!!!! :DDDDD

feeling blue! :(

hello people!

i'm currently down wit a high temperature.

& i can't stand th feeling of my head spinning!!! :((((

temperature have been shooting higher and higher each tym.

how man? thr's SS paper and emaths paper1 on monday!

i can't possible think clearly!!!

ARH!!!! how ? how ? how ?

oh God, please heal me!!

i can't afford to fall sick-er this period.

it's SA1 period!

guys, pray for me okays!

mid-yr coming!

okays, lets see.

mid-yr first paper is starting this coming friday.

ENGLISH!

not that stress-ed up yet, though haven't reali completed revision yet.

but yeah, i find myself paying almost 100% attention in class except for chinese.

so shld be alright la hors. hahahaaha (:

anyways, tym table has been up lyk for a few weeks alrdy.

okays, so here is it:

25th April: 1) English
28th April: 1) social studies 2) Emaths paper1
29th April: 1) Chinese
30th April: 1) Amaths paper1
2nd May: 1) Pure Geography paper1
5th May: 1) Chemistry
6th May: 1) Literature
7th May: 1) Emaths paper2
8th May: 1) Physics 2) Amaths paper2
9th May: 1) Physics/chemistry 2) Pure geography paper2

okays, seems kinda "jar-ing" right ?

but i don't seem to have any form of motivation.

all i do everyday is to wake up uber early in th morning before sch starts

to mug on subjects that i haven't reali touched on.

other then that, i spend my free tym in school

reading my story book as if it's th nicest book on earth - maybe it is! (:

when at this point of tym, textbooks supposed to be my bestfriend!

ohno! MOTIVATION! WHERE ARE YOU? I'M LOST!

but looking at th brighter sight.

it's not that bad either - having consistency is better than having to mug 24/7

& at th point of th exam having test-fright and end up having mental blockages.

soyeah, it's not too bad a thng for me i guess.

hahahaah (:

yeahyeah, i knw u guys shld be thinking that saying such thngs to myself

might set me on my pants when o's is nearing.

but sometyms self encouragement is a good thng you see,

it's better than giving up completely!

hohoho!! okays, i think that's abt it!

BYEEEEEEEEE! :DDDDDDDDDD

------------------------------------------------------

andrea kane's "no way out" is love! (:

changes?

today is definitely a tiring day out for me. PHYSICALLY!

had a whole day school as usual,

and surprising-ly i was lyk quite awake during most of th lessons in school;

including chinese whr i usually found myself kinda dosing off!

during cme today, had some random chat wit Avril,

and we sort of come a conclusion that ppl are changing; be it for th good or bad.

we should have more of those chats yeah? it seems lyk ages.

talking abt changes in people and friends-used-to-be and friends-used-to-be-close.

i find myself changing quite drastically,

within that very few mnths since last yr till now.

as compared to th previous-self which was emo, self kept and wat so u called

to th very person i am now;

regarded as to be someone striaght forward - to th extreme

i was just sharing wit avril earlier today that i changed to be someone

who is more "heartless" as compared to what i was last tym.

it's lyk for now,

i can't seem to tolerate behaviour that it's not out of my expectation.

okays, lets see. erm...

it's lyk for instance, if u stab-ed me for th first tym; i'll forgive you.

it u stab-ed me th second tym; i'll forgive you.

& th third tym u stab-ed me,

thats it! my attitude towards you will change for th worse.

i knw, you all might say that since i dare to admit my weaknesses and all,

why can't i change for th better?

it's true. talk-ed to jared before,

and indeed i'm aware of who i am,

what my strength's are and what my weaknesses are.

& it's sure th tym for me to look thngs at perspective and not over-expect!

maybe, it's a test given to me;

a test given to me upon if i have an open heart for God to change me,

to th person He want me to be.

& that leads me back to what jared preach-ed just 2weeks ago during cg.

" u can't forever stay upon th shelf, half moulded.

when God put you on, and start moulding you,

He too starts to take out th dirt in you,

and thus make u into a perfect and wondering role-model to th society.

& it's a choice you make if u want to anot.

if your choice is to stay un-changed,

even how hard God tries, you'll just stay th same."

panic-ing!

heyo heyo people! :DDDDDD

i just realised that i haven't wish BABE'S bday public-ly.

hahahah (: so here is it.

anyways, as u all can see from my "wish upon a star" list,

and i typed somethng lyk surprise gift for babe!

yup, got her a notice board, which on it is pictures that i've taken with her; 7 in total.

from th very 1st pic that i took wit her at aiport during emerge'07 intermission.

hahaha, still rmb-ed it was at th corner seat of airport's mac. (:

gave her on sunday before service, cos th original plan was that we weren't be meeting on her bday.

ohyes, her bday is 8 APRIL 1992!!! and that means she's 16th this yr.

hahaha (: soyeah, plan changed abit, and huiwen & i had dinner

wit her at chomp's as a celebration. (:

it was a great tym of catching up and all,

when we laugh at everythng under that starry night,

and also chatted abt whr we want to head to after o's and whr our aims are.

after which we headed over to ice cube for th actual cake cutting and all.

hahaha (: shan't mention wat happened thr.

hahaha (: but yeah, babe was seriously touch and all !!! :DDDDDDDD

soyeah, last but not least....

SHER LOVES YOU DEBBIE LIM! <3

CCHC!!!! LOVE IT ! (:

th week that had just passed was indeed a meaningfull and engaging week for me.

having to thrust thru th stressful wk at school,

th pressure that have been building on as th days to O level approaches.

however, not forgetting that SATURDAY, 12April2008! that i serve busing for CHCC!

here's an overview of wat happened on that day:

met shuling and some kids at bishan mrt at 1115am.

th coach then went off to th various locations to pick th kids up namely,

sim lim ave, thomson, yiochukang, serangoon gardens.

after which every one of them was so excited as they were abt to go

for a day visit to SINGAPORE'S ARMY MUSUEM!!!!

upon reaching the place lawrence picked us up, and guess what,

he's reali favoured by mojarity of th kids and anni says he has his own fanclub.

hahaha (: anyways, shuling, lawrence, anni are th teachers in CHCC.

soyeah, reached and got to knw paul one of th ZS for CHCC.

went thru th whole musuem, and before th kids go off,

paul actuali conducted a short bible study lesson wit th kids, teaching them

one of th 10commandment I SHALL NOT MURDER!

while he was teaching and all, th kids were reali paying attention and all.

in b/w th session, shuling then ask me to help her tabulate who paid

for th entrance fee to th musuem.

quickly had it done and helped out in gathering th kids in line

and then was heading back to th kids houses.

thru this short period of tym b/w 1115am to abt 430pm,

i've learnt alot of thngs and most imptly,

had built a r/s wit majority of th kids on bus N08.

it's jus th sense of satisfaction that you'll feel even though you are reali that worn out.

th sense of having th kids enjoying themselves and all.

and that very thng that one of th kid, kelly said to me before she alighted th bus

reali made an impact; even though it's jus simple words:

"teacher shermagne, nxt wk must come visit me okays?

if not i'll miss you. then i'll call teacher tim to call u come!

children church! (:

I MISS DANNON HAR!!!! :((((((

hahaha.

just felt lyk typing that down somehow.

but seriously speaking, thr's a reason why i'm gg to miss this good friend of mine.

i didn't get to see him during cg earlier today,

and apparently i'm not gg to get to see him any tym soon until 2weeks ltr.

he's in camp right now, and can onli book out on 16April2008!

how come so long ? :((((

but anyways, back to th main point of what i'm gg to blog abt !

started serving for chc's children church on friday night starting 7pm.

some might ask why i'm serving on a weekday;

but yeah, thr's actuali a few categories in chcc,

and fall under th visitation category whr i go round visiting

and building r/s with kids b/w th age of 4 to 12.

soyeah, had my very very first visitation wit timothy on friday

arnd sin ming ave and amk ave 5; arnd yck area.

reali learnt alot thru th 3.5hours of gg arnd every kid's hse,

understanding abt their living conditions, and how tim actuali carry out

a simple visitation to kids for that very short 5-10mins to every household.

majority of th kids whose parents are arldy a believer,

or of whom came for easter celebration jus a couple of weeks ago.

i also understand that some kids come from families whoe parents are actuali

once believers, but they still do allow their child to attend church.

among all this, thr's this very one short convo,

during th very last visitation which is to 2 small boys namely shawn and bryan;

*i shall skip th front part of th convo.

tim: so shawn, u all coming for service tmr?

shawn: cannot! tmr ahma's bday.

tim: huh? sunday lehs ?

shawn: sunday also cannot! mummy bringing gorgor and me go zoo!

tim: wah!! go zoo uh. means cannot join us alrdy la. :(

(shawn started getting distracted and played his gameboy)

tim: heys shawn, u knw wat's gg to happen in church this wk? (:

shawn: i know i know!! i giving us th chopchop(stamp)!

tim: yes! so smart uh! i tell u, we give u all th chops right, very nice and special one.

shawn: huh. but i gg zoo on sunday. then saturday got ahma's bday.

they all coming my hse.

shawn: heys teacher tim, wait uh. i go ask my mummy first.

shawn: mummy. this sunday cancel okays? i want go church.

teacher tim say will get very nice chops. so this sunday cancel okays?

shawn: teacher tim!!! my mummy say can! gorgor, sunday don't go zoo okays? (:

bryan: huh! i don't want, i want go zoo!

(shawn apparently ignored his bro and called his dad to tell him he wanted to come church on sun)

shawn: teacher tim!!! my daddy and mummy say can go church

on sunday to take very nice chops !

(tim and i was obviosly happy for him and left after saying goodnight)

and while we were walking away, s

hawn suddenly shouted: BYE TEACHER SHERMAGNE!!!!

then i was seriously kinda shocked cos that day was th first day he ever saw me.

th whole visitation thng that lasted 3hours, was reali tiring

and we were rushing arnd just in case th kids slept early.

however, th hardwork pays off when u see th innocent; genuine smile

on th faces of th kids.

it's jus satisfying and comforting to see th joy that th kids when they see you visiting them.

in all, reali want to thank God for giving me such an opportunty.

lyk seriously speaking i started serving lyk reali fast.

a few days before easter, BJ submitted my ministry registration form.

that very monday after easter sunday, i received a msg from joanna saying that

i'm in for an interview after service on sunday for chcc.

a few days after th interview, i was dial-ed up by tim to serve that very week.

gosh! it's just amazing how God moves in my lives, and those out thr.

it's just amazing how God actuali wants you to experience his love thru anyone,

even to th very young kid that u barely even knw.

i just find it simply to amazing on how God express his love towards us.

oh alleluia, Praise th Lord! :DDDDDDD

--------------

p.s sorry for pics delay. will be up soon after editing!

hahah :DDDDD PTL!!!!! :DDDDDDDDDD

--------------------

ps. pics will be uploaded soon!

privracy.

thr's this something that i just wanna rant out now .

i can't stand it anymore.

i just can't stand th situation that i'm gg thru right now,

that i seriously need a break from everythng and anythng.

what's wrong everythng that is happening arnd me?

backstabbing? hypocrites?

i just don't understand, what wrong did i do to deserve

such a plight that i am in right now.

ppl i tot i can confine in; ppl i tot i could place my trust in

has all turn out to be all just a mist that was covering my eyes.

what's wrong wit everything man?

what's wrong wit sharing tots of my own to another person,

having th trust that everythng's gonna be alright?

but at the end of th day, everythng that i've confinded in had turned

into a laughing facade to another person.

what's th whole prob man ?

what has th world become ?

apparently, everythng does not seem to be wat it seems to be.

a trust b/w th ppl have been broken,

th trust and confident i have wit th grp of friends i tot could be reali called friends

are just all gone;

in just an instance of a hp sms, shown to almost th whole world.

what's th use of pointing out the rights of having individual privracy?

it's just crap.

yes, u might say that i'm just being over-ly sensitive,

but how would u feel if any of u were in my shoes.

okays, it's just crap! lyk seriously.

i can't stand it anymore, why must it happen twice?

implicated by 2 different ppl, in 2 different situations.

birds of th same feathers REALLY flock tgt!

what more can i say ?

once bitten twice shy; PERIOD!

tired!

heyo people! back to update u guys on th past few days,
as i won't be blogging for i tink th rest of th wk.
th only tym u'll see me back in action wld be after easter i supposed.

MONDAY; 170308
1st day of school after th march hols.
wasn't reali in th school mood,
cos didn't slp th enitre night, chiong-ing hmwk.

i had since sunday night; sneezing non-stop.
wasn't in th mood of gg o's music at first, cos wasn't reali feeling that well.
but went cos needed to check o's confimation for music.
soyeah, everythng ended at 620,

cos i've to chiong out my geog proj which is due tmr.
hais. gosh!!!! :(((((

happydoppie! (:

heyo people!

i'm currently down wit flu and have been sneezing for th past 1day,

ever since sunday night when i settled down to study.

butyeah, i feel that th week that just passed was a week of learning;

a week of learning to be strong;

and a week to be independant but dependant on God.

somehow what pastor phil pringle said on sunday impacted me,

and what david told me set me thinking upon lots of expects.

being a leader is definitely not easy to be,

and to be a successful leader, you have to be able to take criticizes easy,

and not heart; and take those critics as an opportunity to improve.

as wat pastor phil said, th anoiting of God; of th holy spirit will guide

u thru thngs that u are abt or gg to do.

in addition, th response u get from God is above everythng;

be it th unnecessary hustle or what so ever.

soyeah, th passed wk was indeed a fruitful wk for me,

and i'm believing as easter approaches, and when i get to interact and learn,

i'll definitely outgrow th ME" now!

yeah, ALLELUIA! PTL!

anyways, before i end off this post,

i'm am seriously very very very very very very very happy!

cos my dad surprised me wit th phone i always wanted!!!! W910i (:

YAY!!! :DDDDDDDDD

sec4 grooming course! (:

heyo people!

last 2days attending th sec4 grroming course wit fellows instructors.

overall it was not bad i guess.

1st day went supreme court, th eurasian house and changi chapel/museum(sp?)

th day was quite enjoyable having able to witness court cases

and th end of an appeal case, which was quite heart wrenching.

th whole thng ended at abt 430.

went home then went to meet th rest of th cg at bedok to chill.

had fun playing games at a place called "hide-out".

if u lost th game and all, u have to pick a forfeit from th forfeit tree.

forfeit included

jared sucking his thumb & gg to other tables and say "mamama..."

edwin walking arnd th place acting lyk a monkey

eunice gg to 2 other strangers saying "i'm a super hero, i'm gg to save th world."

hahaha (: trust me, "hide-out" gg to be a place whr i'm gg bk again in th future.

2nd day had some make-up/face care class in school.

was kinda bored cos darling Moh didn't come.

soyeah spent th whole tym trying to finish th book i've been reading.

headed out to Eatz, steak house @ yishun safra.

----------------------

----------------

okays, i'm done wit "th silver coin" by Andrea Kane (:

pictures/ reflections (:

heyo earth-lings! (:

promised to post photos ytd but in th end didn't.

sorry yeah guys! :(

but pictures are up-ed today! :DDDD

anyways, thr's this somethng that i want to share abt ytd's cg at mason's hse;

cg started off wit a game called "go,jump,back!"

how th games go is lyk th whole grp sit in a circle,

then just start counting according to th pulse given.

but when reach th number which consist of 3 OR a multiple of 3.

soyeah, th game just went on & it was reali enjoyable playing it! (:

cg officially started wit praise and worship!

okays, this is wat i want to share abt...

in th mist of worship, jared started to encourage us to take th step of faith to prophesy(sp?).

eunice started it, followed by hx, then david then jared.

in between them, i could feel th nudging of asking me to say a word

to encourage those who are either taking o's or n's or in general those who are still schooling.

but somehow, i jus didn't dare to speak up.

my heart was beating real fast, and my mind was lyk racing;

hesistating to say or not to say.

at th end of worship, that was it. i didn't take th step of faith at all.

i was feeling guilty, and could not concentrate when jared started preaching.

then jared started encouraging again;

though it was jus that few moments, it set me thinking.

he told us to prepare a word to share nxt meeting,

and that words of encouragement shld jus flow thru when he ask for it.

th bus ride to tp for music, set me thinking wat held me back;

was it fear? or was it that i tink i wasn't ready?

ultimately, th word fear has been in th bank dictionary of my life ever since th past.

if i want to breakaway from it, i have to dare th fear.

if not when will be th tym whr fear wasn't one of th reason

that held me back to thngs that i might regret not making th decision.

peekturesssss! :DDDDD

ps: i'm addicted to andrea kane's book! (:

back!

heyo guys!
sorry for not updating for lyk uber long,
cos didn't reali have th tym. d
actuali want to upload all th over-dued pictures,
but i jus realised that my bro brought th memory card reader out.
soyeah, will be posting photos majority-ly tmr yeah? promised.
anyways, i'm just gg to blog abt th past wk in general,
cos seriously i don't want th post to be too wordy! :(


this past week was not too bad i guess,
except on wednesday that i broke down cos of th stress.
anyways, ptm was ytd; and guess wat,
mum and i was lyk crapping throughout th whole ptm session in th hall
and ferlycia&mum who was sitting behind us, start to laugh so hardly.
hahaha (: and suhan ask me why i spoke to my mum as if i'm speaking to my friend.
but yeah, somehow my mum has been my bestfriend ever since a longlong tym ago,
though we went into a cold war say 4years back, whr we didn't talk to each other for nearly a mnth.
that was kinda bad cos none of us wanted to say "sorry".
& that maybe explains why sorry seems to be th hardest word.
hahaha (: but yeah, I STILL LOVE MY MUM!!!! <3
got back report bk ytd, mum didn't show any signs of unsatisfaction,
so i guess i did okays overall, just that i failed my science.
but no worries yo, will definitely accelerate during th process to o's.
oh thr's this somethng that i want to share wit u dear readers out thr
abt th re-assurance that God gave me during service last sunday;
it was into a tym of worship through th starting of service,
and then i was feeling a lil dry, i just could not feel God's presense.
i prayed & prayed that God will grant me th focus.
as i persevered through, God became to reassure me th scores i'm gg to achieve for o's.
at first, i was still abit doubtful when He showed me th no.12
" how can i achieve 12pts? at th rate i'm gg, it's impossible!"
but no matter how hard i rebut saying that it's impossible,
God continues showing th no. to me,
& somehow i felt him telling me that,
th day i get my results, will also be th day of rejoice when then
i'll see that wateva he's telling me then was gg to come to past.
upon having such assure from God, i was reali encouraged & touched.
soyeah, i'll just end wit
isaiah 49:16
"See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands;
Your walls are continually before Me. "

ps: I LOVE YP ALOT ALOT ALOT! <3

FORTITUDE

definition: th strength of mind to overcome obstacles with courage

* How do we develop fortitude/ endurance?

1) Embrace God's purpose in your situation.

God's purpose = faith + character + salvation

2) Nuture your spiritual roots

Be more dependant on God; patience = endurance, comfort = encouragement

3) Direct your attention to Jesus Christ!

don't get distracted on thngs/circumstances, focus on God; & it'll be fine (:

4) Use your experience to help others.

**your life message is not th strengths you possess, but th weaknesses; thus turn it arnd

for weaknesses to turn into strengths! :D

**be a self example to those arnd you, just lyk how Jesus teaches us to be lyk him.

5) Rely on God's power.

**on situation when u tink it's dead end, it's th tym when u reali need to rely on God.

**must believe that whatever th saviour has plan for you,

it's for th good and that you'll shine! (:

**you'll be th head and not th tail; above and not beneath! (:

6) Expect God to Bless you!

**expect God to bless you in every way in your life

I WILL NEVER QUIT!!!!

thats th overall outline of sermon today!

and i find it super super good!!

set apart some thoughts upon circumstances when u are reali lost,

when u are reali in th mist of giving up.

and u start questioning why thngs are happening in such a manner.

why not reflect upon th pirioties(sp?) u set in ur life?

okays, i tink thats all for today! :DDDDD
