James1:2-7 Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If anyone lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. The man should not thing he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does. v12. Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, becuase when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
oh boi oh boi! i've been soooo busy.. what have i been busy with?
Just last wed at cell, I was sharing with the girls how I have not much to do at work? Well not exactly nothing to do.. Basically, I'm very privilaged to be in a company that allows me to be very independent and my boss pretty much leaves me on my own.. so in other words, I have to find my own work to do. Here's the thing... when I have nothing much to do, I feel that time literally crawls... arghh.. so hard to pass.. and the lazy sleepy afternoons are the worst!!! so yes.. i'll really appreciate if you could jus gimme some sweets.. or just chat with me if you feel the same way too.. and also inefficient and unproductive. as if i'm wasting time away... K. So I was lamenting to God... if this is really want me to be, after all you did transfer me out of the probability of 99/100, then why is this happening? God heard my prayers.. and a whole stack of work was given to me.. esp the China portfolio that has been given to me.. arghhh! how?! my mandarin is so bad? How do i even negotiate with my suppliers when i don't know their lingo? hmmm.. solution. learn.. so it is not by chance that my seat is with the china dept. and there are plenty of opportunities for me to practice my mandarin.. and in cell, there is dear fang fang and liana and jean who can help me improve my mandarin by just simply speaking it.. language.. is something that has to be practised.. no doubt abt it.. now i cannot complain anymore!!! :) its human nature to complain eh?
Sonic Festival 2005. As the date draws nearer, the tension will start to mount. Right from the top to the bottom... its a chain reaction. All the more we have to work as a team.. because.. if you don't do your job, I will not be able to do mine. And if i do my job, my other brothers and sisters will not be able to do theirs!!! So if there is something stopping us from doing our own job, what are we going to do?? ASK ASK ASK as Marcus has put it across so clearly. There is no stupid question. The only stupid question is not asking the question. if he is busy, he will tell you and get back later.. :) He's so comical when he said we could even ask what colour socks he was wearing... yah.. u get the drift..Above all, we have to remember that this is not for us.. for ultimately for God's glory.
Part-time Degree Biz Admin. - my 30% assignment was submitted barely two weeks ago.. when i had my wisdom tooth extracted (ouch!) and now.. i have a test tomorrow.. a weightage of 20%!!! :( .. i haven't studied.. but luckily, my friend who is an accountant is willing to tutor me after work.. thank God for help!!! I know i cannot depend on Eddy to help me.. and I still have to put in alot of effort.. but i cannot help me!! laziness and procrastination on top of lousy time management.. i need lots of help i do!!! :) I have received help...
Social life... i have been catching up with alot of pple.. you know how suddenly there is a passion to wanna know pple? To know their likes and dislikes.. to know what has been going on in their life.. i don't know how it got there... but i just hope i'm not depending on my own strength.. cos if i am,.. sooner or later.. i'll be burnt to the core. how do u balance wanting to know new pple.. and catching up with my dear old friends? Am i wanting to know God Himself above all these cos isn't He the one that can give me the power to do it? Geez.. *sheepish* I need to give more time to God.. cos my prayer life hasn't been all that great. Earlier this year.. i prayed for God to show me who He wants me to reach out to specifically..and change came.. in the cell... my priority is pple in my small cell.. but i'm trying.. but struggling.. cos its so easy to go back to wat you're familiar with eh. :) Sigh.. i fail and fail time and time again. but You were always there to pick me up, hold my hand.
On a lighter note.. i learnt something new... i've always have problem relating to guys.. cos all my life.. i've had gal friends, girl's school, and only boyfriends in BGR. only recently, i realised that there are guys out there who truly care for me.. but not interested in you in that way. How sweet is it to know that.. ?? But i do have my weakness.. Now I pray I will guard my mind and heart to treat them the same way they have treated me. It doesn't mean that i'm nice to you means i will like you that way.
Tension is good yah? - Jon Hems. Take heart my friends.. God knows your problems.
Guess who I met??!!!! GRETA!! SHE GOT SAVED! :) wow.. amazing..
