I can't believe I just deleted away my post....argh...it's ok then....i'm blessed..I was talking about Thursday's BS message. Pastor Lian was preaching and it was really good. 9 souls were saved. Do not get me wrong. I do not measure the quality of the message by the amount of pple saved. It's not a number game anyways.
It is so easy for us to focus on things that we do not have and get lost in it. God has blessed me so much and there are times I don't really focus on them. so what do I have?...
- I have blessed family. I love my nephew and niece. And 2 more on the way! Woo hoo!
- I have a blessed relationship with my hubby-to-be! We DUN really quarrel and sometimes I will think to myself " Is this normal?..Are we too peaceful?" heh :P
- I have a blessed job. I have got so much favor and blessings in this job and have been surpassing targets. All glory to God. And I think I may have surpass this year's target within 6 months...amazing!..IT MUST BE GOD!
- I'm blessed with very good friends whom I know I can depend on
- I'm blessed with my wedding prep. Pple just come to me and share with me information and recommend me their bridal studios. I may even be able to get discount if I mention their names...:P hee...but I'm not gonna do that. I trust God for His provision!
- And many more...hee...even small blessings..like i always managed to get lifts from choir friends after pract somehow...:))
That is how much God loves me! :)

Served at thurs BS and Pastor Lian preached on a good message, 9 souls saved. Praise the Lord. Dont' get me wrong, i do not measure the quality of the message by the number of souls saved. it's not a number game anyway. But I thank God for every soul saved as they are all precious in God's eyes and I believe the message speaks to each of the them or touched them in a unique way.
I really thank God for what I have today and though there are times where i slipped into grumbling to God for what I do not have. It is time I stop focusing of what I do not have and start focusing what I have. So what do I have....
- I have a blessed family. I love my nephew and my niece. And 2 more on the way! Woo Hoo!
- I have a blessed relationship with my hubby-to-be! We DUN really quarrel at all and sometimes I even tot to myself, is this normal? Are we too peaceful?..heh :P
- I have a blessed job. I can really see the blessing and favor of God upon this job and all the targets I managed to surpass are really by the grace of God. All glory to Him. I think i may have met my whole year target within 6 months...amazing...must be God u know.
- I'm blessed with very good friends around whom I can depend on.
- I'm blessed with my wedding prep...somehow pple just come to me and provide me with informations and recommended their bridal studios to me. *and if i mention their names, i can get good rates supposedly :P..hee but I trust God for provision.
- And many more! Every little blessing along the way counts...like the train came just when i reach the platform...i get lifts from choir friends after practs every week or my darling come fetch me (since pract venue changed to Kallang about 3 months ago, i only travelled back on train twice!)
I can go on and on and on..... just to remind myself how much God loves me. He takes care of me and will never fail me. I say all these because I was recently focusing on some of the things that I don't have and it sort of bothered me a bit, so Thursday's message just set me free and put me back on the right perspective of God's love for me again. He shed his blood for me to have all these blessings today. There's no greater love than this. For those things that I do not have yet, He knows the perfect timing to give to me. I have a blessed life and do not have to look at my shortcomings or what I do not have again. I'll just rest it at Jesus's feet. He knows what is best for me. My only prayer to Him is to always put me in the conciousness of His love for me.

Blessed Birthday!!
Special Day
This is the day the Lord has made. And on this very day in 1981, the Lord God of Heavens brought forth a very special girl to this earth. A blessing to those around her - a very unique blessing to me in particular. This person is none other than my dearie, Xiwen!!
On this special day, here's a little poem:
A breathe of God, the Most High God
Is she who was born this special day
A welcomed dawn that brought the light
A loveliness set in my sight
A refreshing dew to the morning grass
A breathe of life to the dust
I raise my hand to thank my Lord
For this special girl that He has brought
And on this day, i just want to say
Thank you for your love
A Blessed Birhday!
In His love, the Wise One
A poem my darling wrote for my b'day! He posted it in his livejournal and expects me to discover it. Of course i did not...heh...so he has to show me when i complained this morning that the whole world has wished me but him. :p Hee! Happy Happy day! I thank God for the blessings in my life and more to come! Met up with Cal and KC for dinner on Fri evening. Had a simple yet sweet celebration with my darling on Sat at a restaurant called Bliss at Punggol Park, nice scenary though it drizzled a bit. Before this, I had a whole day of activities (worked half day, music min workshop cum rehearsal at rock and rushed down for baby elyssa's b'day party - her birthday is same as mine...ok..just 24 years apart :P) After dinner, darling prayed over me and i was too worn out...but happy ;) He went back to catch his first England's game in the World Cup and i'm off home to catch my sleep..
