I almost forgot that I have a blog. Its been awhile.. maybe I should start writing again...

Reality Check

Choice is a powerful tool we have. Everyday we come across the junction of choice. Choice means decision. Choice means freewill. Choice means options. For me, the power of choice itself is not something to be afraid of. It is what makes us humans and not robots. It is a gift from God who created us and many do not have the choice that we sometimes take for granted. However because choice comes with consequences, it can be the most difficult thing we have to do. Chose something which you will not regret someone may advice. It is easier said then done. Chose something and if you are wrong then you learn from it they say. It is true only for certain things. There are things you chose and there are no turning back or are too late to turn. Choose at your own risk then. But we can’t deny that good choice is an opportunity we enjoy. Choice is powerful indeed.

Had a good week :)

Its been quite a while since I blogged. Lots of things that were on my mind but didn't show up here. Anyway, I'm kinda busy too lately. Had a great retreat in Gentings not for holidays but for Diocesan Clergy and Lay Leaders conference. Manage to meet up with friends whom otherwise I will not have the chance to meet anytime soon. It was a refreshing time but when I came back had to catch up with 3 days of work. Had Youth Sunday yesterday and it was a mad rush doing things while thinking about my sermon as well. Phew I'm glad it went well and the youths were great. Thank God for everything. It was a great week and Liverpool's monster kill over Man U made it sweeter! So I have to say:

I'm so sorry that I doubted you Liverpool. You made me realise what a legendary club you are. No matter whether you win the premiership or not I pledge my loyalty. You will never walk alone!

Hope you had a great week as well. If not may this week be better for you! :)

Prayer for today

Melancholy of the past,

Rhapsody of the future,

Where is the present you may ask,

For which I have no answer.

Memory of the past, I linger,

Thoughts of the future, I wonder,

Hmm… where is the present I ask,

For which I get no answer.

Lord help me to learn from the past,

Hope for the future,

But live in the present,

For I know every today is not past, or future,

But is now, present. In Jesus, Amen.

Resident Fever

Everybody seems to be having fever and vomiting here. Okay that's an exaggeration but you get my point. To make things worse this Chingkunya virus spread by Aedes mosquito has to make its apperarance now. Time to equip with Shieldtox and a dose of Redoxon everyday.

New Year!

Its been four days since we entered the New Year. Time to start getting used to writing 9 instead of 8. As for my New Year resolution, I have a new resolution this year. I know this resolution I can keep for sure. It was discouraging for me for not keeping any resolution past years so this year I'm starting with lots of assurance. I have decided to have no resolutions this New Year :P
Have a blessed New Year.

Johnny's Plight

Pic from: here

It was late but Johnny’s mind was filled with many things that it felt like 12 o’ clock in the noon. He can’t stop thinking what could be the purpose of God for him at this milestone of his life. All the things that were happening, are they from God or just humanly originated events? The answer to the question was vital because he wanted to understand all the all the pain, all the hopelessness and the confusions that he felt, whether they have some purpose to fulfill. It does not help when he might also need to forget about having something that he wanted because of it. It was nothing new but usual for him anyway. However it was still painful so much so he hoped he could quickly pass through this stage of his life. Poor Johnny, it was too late but his mind was still thinking like it does under the broad sunny day.
