Japan

Leaving for Japan in 30 hours' time.

I'm very excited for it. I will be there for 3 weeks but I feel like I'll be there for 3 months. Of course, I want to come back at the end of these 3 weeks and go to another place. 3 months there in Japan.. See how God leads.. =)

I'm really concerned about the cold weather there. I hope I have packed enough things.

Above all the packing, it's really about packing of my heart. To get my heart and soul ready for what God will be showing me.

See Jesus in the streets of Japan. God, teach me how. Break my heart for what breaks yours. Show me how to love like you did.

Adventures await me in Japan

Psalm 36

Your unfailing love, O Lord, is as vast as the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.
6 Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains,
your justice like the ocean depths.
You care for people and animals alike, O Lord.
7 How precious is your unfailing love, O God!
All humanity finds shelter
in the shadow of your wings.
8 You feed them from the abundance of your own house,
letting them drink from your river of delights.
9 For you are the fountain of life,
the light by which we see.

Watched Astro Boy over the weekends.

Man, I cried at the show, can you believe it?

I cried when Astro was rejected by his dad because his dad felt that he was not the same Astro.

It's so painful. It's almost like a cry of most people who never had the acceptance of their father.

Malachi 4:6 "I will turn the hearts of the father to their children and turn the hearts of the children to their father."
Last Saturday, I decided to buy my mum a bouquet of flowers to just appreciate her. I thought it would be a surprise for her if I leave it on the bed. Her first response when she saw it was "why did you leave your stuffs on my bed?"
Then I had to convince her that it belonged to her.

And finally, she said "don't make me cry."

Haha!

This past 7 weeks in DTS, God has been showing Himself to me. I realised I was angry with Him for the things that happened in my family. I lost hope in the future. But through these 7 weeks, God told me that He was there with me, with my dad and He wept for us.

I know God has never let me down. And I pray that my mum will know this truth as well.

Would you pray for my mum as you read this? I pray that you too, would know in your heart that Jesus lived and died for you and He is calling you to receive Him as your Savior and Lord.

Mooncake Festival

Week 2 of DTS. Gone by quick and good.

This is my extended Family in DTS. Multi-national. 1 Chinese, 1 Thai, 2 Koreans, 2 Indonesians and many Singaporeans. Such fun sharing mooncakes, pomelo, Chinese Tea, Hor Fun with one another. Not forgetting the laughter and singing from one another.

You were meant for so much more

Watched Kung Fu Panda & Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs yesterday and today.

Both movies have the same theme - "You were meant for so much more"

Everyone has a destiny. Often times because of the society, culture, values that have influenced us, we tend to think that the destiny is something small, perhaps don't have, perhaps not important. But it's so untrue.

If you have a dream that is bigger than what you think you can do, that is the destiny that God gives you and believe in yourself and in God to achieve it. There may be times when you fail, but keep going, and it will turn out to be good.

In meritocratical Singapore, success in studies is like the most important thing. And often the poor child is made to think that they can't excel in life because they are categorised as a certain stream or class or subject combi. And to make things worst, exam papers are set to such a high standard that they can't do it.It's so stifling and makes them think that they have no hope. But it's such a Big Fat Lie.

Your Destiny lies not in the results you get now, but what you were meant to be. And You were meant for so much more.

It so ties in with what I've been hearing and learning this week at DTS. Who defines who you are? Is it the world's system that says A is good or is it a Loving and Good God that says "It is very good" upon creation?

New "Home"

I have a new home for the first 4 days of the week. It's situated in the heart of Geylang. It's the place where I have my classes too. Right now, we are busy setting up the new place during work duties hours. It's so physically tiring!! I wish I was much stronger. But with whatever strength I have and the company to work with, everything is good!

Like little ants in the colony as Sujin describes us. haha!

I just love everything and I miss my bed too. Having a new mattress in my home sweet home.

Modern Toilet Restaurant

The first thing that caught our attention in the Hong Kong Visitor kit and made us decide we must go to this place in our time in HK.


What a cute mascot!!

The front of the restaurant! Doesn't even look like a restaurant.

Here's the food.

I love this. This is really 吃大便.

Counting Down by the days

It's 16 days to DTS.

I'm quite excited. And at the same time, I feel abit forlorn that I'm leaving the girls.

I guess it's normal to feel this way.
