Life is good. always.

Ever since last week life has been quite hectic. Even my weekends are action packed.  I have more stuff on my shoulders than before, more responsibilities, more work. I'm always all exhausted at the end of the day, but somehow I'm feeling just as great as ever, if not greater.

Life is just different when you have your eyes set on God.  Instead of thinking how big your problems are, you start thinking how big God is. And as this goes on, you stop thinking of your problems altogether as your mind is completely occupied with the thought of His majesty.

And when we are able to see God in every single thing in this world, life becomes all exciting and meaningful. Of course, I can't see Him in everything yet. In fact I have tonnes of unanswered questions but well, living with God isn't about having all your questions answered isn't it. I'm sure there are things that I will never understand, till I get to meet Him personally in heaven.  But I guess that's okay, cause I don't need to know everything to have an amazing life with God.

I remember that Pastor Yang once said, stop looking at the circumstances cause the circumstances won't change. It's your attitude that's gotta change. Very true isn't it. Shadrach, Mesach and Abed-Nego didn't ask God to bring them out of the fire. They simply believed in Him, and look what God did. He danced with them in the fire. 

Life is good. Cause God is good.

The little joys of driving

Ah so it has been a while since my last post, but I couldn't let today slip by without writing about this small funny thing that happened today.

You know how driving can be a little frustrating sometimes when there's traffic jams and stuff like that. But I've learnt to find the little joys in driving that make up for all of the frustration. One of it is of course being able to just ferry people around who don't have transport. I know how it feels to not have transport to go out and stuff, and I know how thankful I felt when my friends offered to bring me around. And now that I have a car, I actually quite enjoy fetching people around. Of course provided that I have enough money for petrol hahaha =]

BUT ANYWAYS. That is not the point today. I wanna talk about a NEW little joy of driving which I discovered. Lol it's not exactly a very nice thing but hey it made me laugh(so that's good enough isn't it).

OK. So here i was stuck at the traffic light, waiting for my turn to come... looked to the car on my right lane. Guess what i saw!? This guy HAVING THE TIME OF HIS LIFE digging for gold in his nostrils. HAHAHAHA hilarious! He looked like he was in a completely different world of his own. FARNIEEE MAN! Now you would think that's it. Noooo the best part is yet to come. So at that moment, as I was enjoying the spectacle, I looked further to the right(that's the third lane, I was in the first), and guess what I saw THIS TIME? A woman PICKING HER NOSE AND HAVING THE TIME OF HER LIFE TOO. LOLLLLLL. But okay la this woman less terror abit she had a piece of tissue over her finger. LOL HAHAHAHA wow double the entertainment. I of course, had a hard time refraining myself from joining in the fun.

hahahaha I know some of you might find it disgusting, but you know they were just having that short precious time alone that doesn't come by very often, away from the harsh routines of daily life(work and all that). And don't we all do really weird stuff when we're alone. hahahaha. VERY SORRY for intruding, haha but thank you for giving me a good laugh it sure made my time on the road much more interesting.  It was a nice break from the usual trips on the road.


So I guess if there's one lesson to learn from all this, is that if you drive, look to the left and right before you do anything funny. You never know if Evan is on the lane next to you. Ok that was a joke. I guess we can learn that we can always take pleasure in the little things in life. Nights.

Greater love has no one than this


The love of God reaches far. It stretches beyond the ends of the earth. It is immeasurable, it is eternal. His love cannot be contained, it bursts out like a spring. It is ever flowing, it never dries out. Beautiful beyond comprehension, peaceful beyond understanding. It is priceless, most precious, incomparable in worth - yet all can freely ask of it and have it. And it is reaching to you.

Your love, LORD, reaches to the heavens,
Your faithfulness to the skies.
-Psalms 36:5

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
-Romans 8:38-39

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins  
-1 John 4:9-10

Then I will sow her for Myself in the earth,
And I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy;
Then I will say to those who were not My people,

‘You are My people!’
And they shall say, ‘You are my God!’”


Hosea 2:23
