It's a wierd wierd kinda feeling....... when everything is just basically pending....... and you're left hanging in mid-air somewhat.......... When each day comes with a ga-zillion things to get done... and you're just not sure how to start....

I've placed the things close to my heart first like my family and friends..... where most of my time is spent..... after doing the necessary like the pr and jobs stuff.....which are of uptmost importance... but that is just on the way... nearly there but not quite I must say........

The certainty of the promise that my life is in God's hands..... the support of love ones....... the desire of heading outward bound......... the carefree life of one without burden... the knowing that patience would eventually pay off.....

Now I just must muster up all my courage to just WAIT........... something I'm not accustomed to.... with the rush of deadlines that i'm used to... the waking up and going to work... the need to feel needed and significant in watever big and small way....

Time is of critical priority yet circumstances are not within my control...... a situation... a time........ when i'm called to live by faith...... and i sincerely pray each and everyday....... with each breathing moment.... I long... I ponder....... I seek for an answer......

By God's Love, Grace and Mercy....... that all this uncertainty will be revealed soon....... I'll be along my way....... and I shall not worry but just be faithful and strong.... as the following gives me comfort:

"[Cast] all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7), and “God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4:19).

When your mind turns to anxious thoughts about the future, remember that “your heavenly Father knows” (Matt. 6:32) and will give you what you need.
Cindy Hess Kasper

I don’t know about tomorrow,
It may bring me poverty;
But the One who feeds the sparrow
Is the One who stands by me. —Stanphill

Worry is a burden God never intended us to bear.

READ: James 4:13-17

You do not know what will happen tomorrow. —James 4:14

Life's one certainty is its sheer uncertainty. As Scripture reminds us, we "do not know what will happen tomorrow" (James 4:14). Real estate developer Larry Silverstein can bear witness to the truth of that text. Though he owned impressive property in New York City, he was, according to his own testimony, obsessed by the desire to add the great Twin Towers of the World Trade Center to his holdings. His wish came true. Six weeks before those two imposing skyscrapers were destroyed by terrorists, he had obtained a 99-year lease worth $3.2 billion for that majestic center.

Sadly, the fulfillment of our dreams can sometimes turn into nightmares. This reminds us not only of the uncertainty of life, but also of the need to align our desires with God's will. Experience teaches us that if we allow presumption to run our lives, the fulfillment of our own compulsive dreams may turn to dust and ashes.

There are legitimate desires, to be sure, but the book of James tells us how to approach them. Instead of presuming that our plans and dreams will be fulfilled, we ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that" (4:15).

When we submit our plans to God's will, we can enjoy His peace in the midst of life's uncertainty. Vernon C Grounds

Our life is uncertain, our path is unclear,
Yet we have no cause to falter or fear
If plans that we make our dreams to fulfill
Are born out of love for God and His will. —D. De Haan

*extracted from "http://www.rbc.org/odb/odb-10-04-03.shtml"

Prayer:

"God, grant me serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference, living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time, accepting hardship as a pathway to peace, taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it, trusting that You will make all things right if I surrender to Your will, so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with you forever in the next. Amen - Francis of Assisi"

It's been another week of just getting over the last lap.........

support and reassurance then my usual tendencies.......

I really appreciate those around lending my their support
in prayers...... in kind words......... and especially

those references like my counselling manager Bernice
Counselling Partner....... OCK......... and my all time fav and
encouraging manager... Victor.........

Don't think they're ever see this but I'm really blessed to
have them in my life..........

Last but not least.... my ever dearest sweetie...... kel for
all the patience..... love...... care and concern......
I really wonder what it'll be like without ya........ BUT I
would never wanna find out.. lol......

All these would also not be possible without the Grace of
God....... because I guess i'm really nothing without Him...

It's been a walk down memory lane when some old friends came by in your life......... My cousin all the way from Guangzhou came over to stay for a night when she stopped by Singapore for a tour around SG and M'sia........

Miss Mani Jiang........ she is such a wonder tour guide when I visited Guangzhou about 2 years back.. too bad it was at such last minute's notice that I didn't have much time to show her around......... but with the little time I had we did cover a few nite spots in SG....... Hope I get the chance to go visit her soon!!


Another lovely surprise was lunch with an old friend like Paul......... well, I needed to say my goodbyes to all my old friends........ I'm really glad we're still friends after so long... it's really rare to have such a heart warming friendship....... nothing spectacular but just to catch up on how each are doing...

It's a pleasant surprise on the twist in his life....... well......... hope you all can go and support him too in his new Venture!! If you want healthy livin! If you need to lose weight.. he's the man...

Check out his website here....... Click here to find out more about Paul...


With my other plans on the way.......... what's there not to love about my life........... I'll keep you all posted yeah!!
