Heard it? Continue listening!

Just a thought before the post...Why do we listen to some sermons but we never healed?

A few months ago I had a family gathering I think to celebrate my Grandpa's birthday.
What was most memorable about that day is, the talk with my San Yi.


As usual, I was bleating lamely about my equally lame results and worries about failing the big As. But that day, San Yi restored to me the truth behind why God wants me to continue with my studies. Thank God for her x)

I was so touched I couldn't help but sob a little. By now I forgot most of what she said, but I remember that I was genuinely shocked when she told me that I would forget whatever truth she's telling me that day by 3 days.

I was gaping like a gargoyle. "Wha...? How could I forget something so important?"
Then I made it a point to remember.....
By the third day, I'm like "Hell yea, I remembered!"
But after that day, that incident was completely outta my mind until I listened to this sermon.


Again, Why do we listen to some sermons but we never healed?

Joseph Prince - The Secret Of Hearing That Brings Untold Blessings

The video is self-explanatory.
So...It is not enough for us to just listen. We must keep listening and looking!


"But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but continues doing it—they will be blessed in what they do." [James 1:23]

Is he in total control?

I don't understand. Someone please enlighten me.

Is God in total control of us?

Yes, I do believe that God is in control of everything-of the earth, of the entire universe, for the power he wields is so infinite it is impossible to comprehend.

But how about the freewill of mankind?

Do we, in our everyday choices, somehow steer our own life?
If that is so, does that explain the tragedies that have happened?

Perhaps that is why God is always telling us to seek and follow him, for

^"28 we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. [Romans 8:28]"

But what about the people who have wandered off, and never looked back?

Surely God has anticipated that. Why didn't he eliminate them from the start, when he already knew the ending?

I think I have just answered my own question.

This is why we live; for He has given us the choice to live, the freedom to choose.

Overflowing with Happiness!

I've never realized that happiness comes when you can see the hand of God working in your life.

I've since appreciate everything I have- even the shittiest result can still make me smile. :D

I mean, yea, I DO initially feel :( ......

Like my last mother tongue results. I got a C. Yea, everyone's surprised(I think). Almost all my classmates got either an A or a B. And to make things worse, I come from a Chinese speaking family. Irony.

But well, if this is the path I'm taking, I might as well be positive. And I think it doesn't really matter, coz I know that the route I'm taking and He knows where I am going :)

And...My newest favorite! One Direction! :D

I've been listening to their songs for hours and hours~ I never got tired of listening to them(well, maybe it's too early to say that but whatever).

OMG! SQEEEEEEEEEE *MAJOR FANGIRLING*

Everything about you

Up all night

I should've kissed you

Convoluted feelings

Hello, hello! It's finally an update! This blog is still alive!

2012'll definitely be a shitty year coz of the big As, so I'm not gonna blog as much as I used to, like last year(almost a post every 3 days OMG. Didn't know I could crap so much. Must be the stress.)

Anyway, I'm very sleep deprived now so don't blame me if this post is sort of unintelligible.

And I'mma talk about extremely trivial stuff! Lovely Oscar Wilde's IOBE. I'm being trivialized myself.

There's this saying regarding couples that goes "If one of the partner is extremely good looking, the other one is very likely to be opposite".

Yea you got that right people I'mma talking about looks aka appearance, impression, aspect blah blah blah and I must say I've never believed in this statement until SOME people who looks everything are like, gonna get married and...I realized that their partners looks quite opposite.

I asked my mum who believes in the aforementioned statement about what she thinks my future guy would look like.

She says she's absolutely sure that "he would look very handsome."

Horrors of horrors. Please read between the lines, thanks.

Looks are very important. It's the first thing you see in a person. And I'm slowly converting into a "support the aesthetic movement!" person, so yup I am a shallow person.

BUT. I'm feeling weirded out coz I've finally realized that this certain singer, whom I admire alot, has an extremely different set of values as me. I wouldn't condemn him, but my wonderful-fantasized-good impression of him is being totally tarnished.

Even his super good looks are not enough to make me feel any better about him. Some fans says"who cares, I still love him!" But seriously, I don't think being handsome is a good enough reason to redeem him.

Bleah. Between good looks and personality, I think I've since changed my mind; who the person is, that's what most important of all. And I'm not saying that to make me feel better about myself.

One direction

They remind me so much of DBSK! Coz they're also 5-membered. And yeeesss talent! Gorgeous voices. Hope to hear more of their songs :)

One thing

What makes you beautiful

Dramatized

*Warning: Chronicles of a babbling fangirl*

I've been watching a drama called 《步步惊心/ Startling by each step(yes, startling's the word, no typo.

IT HAS SINCE BECAME MY FAVORITE DRAMA (at least, for now).

I don't know about you, but it's so romantic LOLOLOL.

And interesting. Tells you bits and pieces about the history of the kangxi emperor's reign and the succession of yong zheng emperor.

Wah and the 8th prince wrote a poem for Ruoxi~

I'm more of a team 8th prince than 4th prince but oh well, still romantic.
Kevin Cheng (郑嘉颖) is SO HANDSOME.
Can't believe I'm having hots for a guy old enough to be my dad LOL.

Akazukin Cha Cha!

Ahh all the childhood memories!
I used to watch this everyday when I was a toddler!
Hahaha rewatching this for the third time!

Can't believe Cha Cha ended up with Riiya..I was hoping she'll fall for Shiine;I like Shiine better(he's more handsome) :X Oh darn, I'm superficial can't help it.
But oh well, it's still as funny and lighthearted as the first time I watched it when I was a kid.Whee!~
