the office comp's keyboard is still oily because of the egg tart i dropped on it last week. ah. nvm. i'm leaving here in 3 days. but, my fingers are oily now. :(
hmm. do i think too much? i was at the food fair yesterday. there was this beggar, shabbily dressed in oversized shirt and shoes. but i'm glad that God provided him/her (ok i couldnt see his/her face. he/her was busily shoving spoonfuls of food into his/her mouth. he/her was devouring the food, like a starved tiger.) with food. and i pray that God will continue to provide meals for him/her. amen.
i brought 2 kids to the library on saturday. the elder brother, who is 11, is slightly cognitively impaired. the younger sister, who is 6, is a bright and obedient girl. ooh. and she is really pink. ha. :D the pair of siblings grew up in a chinese-speaking environment. just felt that though the sister is quite bright, her limited knowledge of the english language is going to hamper her academic progress. though she may know how to solve the math problem, but if she does not understand the question, she will be assessed as not having the skills to solve the problem. and she will be disadvantaged. even though the goverment is introducing the new scheme to the kindergartens and has after-school tuition for these children, is it effective? i do not know because i have not been through that system. but at least something is being done. i read 4 books to her but she could not read it independently. yet. she could identify all the pictures in chinese. aiya. then how now brown cow?
see, i told you i think too much. stop, yafen.

kinda glad that there was prayer meeting on saturday. recently, i have not been praying as fervently as before. God created this opportunity so that i will seek Him in prayer as faithfully as before. and i wanna hear His still small voice forever and ever more. i wanna cling onto His word like it is the fountain of life.
yes, i am going to pray the Jabez's prayer every morning and every night! Lord, help me to remember!
as i was on my way to expo after post-encounter yesterday, i was just so grateful and i was thanking the Lord for this magnificent journey with Him. yees, i see His works in my household. yes, my mum is much more liberal now. i can freely tell her that i am going to church. (but i dont dare to tell her im going for church camp. hahahhaa.) i can talk about my church friends. i pray that she will be more receptive towards Jesus and that one day she will be able to acknowledge Him as Saviour!
i see His works in my spiritual family too. this year, my cell group have bonded much more and cell group sessions arent no longer tortorous anymore. yes, i'm filled with joy as i meet my cell sisters now. yes, they are no longer acquaintances, no longer just a group of people i sit with during service, no longer people i take for granted. instead, i can know call them my cell sisters. my spiritual family. i learnt that there is no such thing as just God and me alone. in times when the devil blinds me, i cant see God and that's when my spiritual family comes in. to wake me up and tide me through all obstacles. Lord, stop me from being hermit-ty! was very assured when pastor said that he will never give us away to the woman's network or any other network.
i miss you, meijin! T_T amidst the tornado of events, be still and know that He is God. :)
me.
