mmmmmmmm, feels like i have alot to blog about tonight ... cos i cant sleep!!! ahhh, i think im turning nocturnal for permanent! :( no good.
haha, christmas was awesome, though i got a little discouraged but guess we gotta fighhht on! there was 2 mcgs that we held and i thoroughly enjoyed myself :) there were visitors too! esp for the christmas party! haha then christmas service made me realise that everyone is growing in this KOG! i think pastor jasmine poom summed it really well in her sermon today.... the "before" and the "after" us... mmm i wonder what i would have written in the "before" card. but i know i wanna after many many "after" transformations! heh :)
the year 2007 is gonna end ,
i remember the start of the year i told god that if he allowed me to promote for my retest i promise to study real hard! haha, then after all the jittery waiting, i finally was promoted :) praise god.
but i wasnt faithful. i slacked my j2 year away. esp the first half of the year. many events came and past that were memorable to me ( not in chronological order ) : aj idol, photog becoming twice a week, valentines day etc...
then came mid year exams, i was totally swept off my feet. i failed every subject and my principal even became my mentor to aid me in my studying. it meant that there were one to one talks with her and all these things...
around this point of time ajcg had a revival spirit and things were working miraculously in our cg and god added to our numbers those who were being saved. the j2s and j1s hardwork paid off and god blessed us abundantly under the leadership of jontay. haha.
next half of 2007 was definitely more fufilling and i grew spiritually too cos jontay really taught me alot . so did the whole cg grew in qty and quality.
then the baton was passed on to me now ... at first everything seemed uncertain, i was pretty impatient and perhaps too caught up with the legalism and not the value and spirit behind it. it gets better as i learn and grow! :)
really think that god bless me alot as he carefully weaves out my every step, decision, emotions and behaviour. not everything was god glorifying, but god really dotes on me no matter what. haha just wanna thank god for the ppl he placed in my life . and at this turning point in my life god has placed certain things for me to think through. prolly to help me focus in this journey he allowed things to take place in my life and let me grow in discipline and how i can learn to grow up to be a woman after god's heart. as he shapes and moulds me in certain weaknesses and vulnerabilities i have, he gave me great friends that help me along in this walk! sometimes i wonder how this can be true and how im gonna deal with it ...but i guess god thinks quite highly of me sometimes . but then again im filled with insecurities and worries, but its okay, 2008 shall be even better alright!! even as i decide on my next path to take after my A level results are out, i pray that everything is according to His plans. and that i wont deviate from it . :)
to all whom i love and treasure; jiayou in the next year and know that i believe in you! :))))
