Heh, yes people. i PASSED my driving test!!! Thank God for coming through for me! haha, imagine i was all jitters during the waiting time n i spent it praying, standing on His promises.

Guess what, that feeling was really.. once i sat in the car and placed my hands on the steering wheel, i immediately felt the peace of God.

"Yes God, let's do this."

And yep, i passed! haha! have been driving ever since as long there's an available vehicle. Yes, im not that good yet, but yea i PASSED! haha!

These few days i just keep forgetting stuffs. Not the very big ones, but really the little ones. Many times in life, it's not the big things that causes the big hoohaas in your life. It's the little ones too.

God is concern with your details too.


I remember wanting to write this post few days back, but i keep forgetting what i wanted to pen(or type in this matter =X) down, i find myself getting stuck at a certain point, and had to just go through, leaving the details behind. I think the revelation for this particular week is indeed to,


Let God fight your battle
This principle came so true for me this wk. I didn't want to fight anymore, and decided to trust and let GOD. He came through for me, and at that point i knew, He is fighting for me, He won't give up halfway. And true enough i felt the PEACE of God in my tp, and i PASSED!
Indeed, this feeling has been stuck with me, and for some reason i cannot remember it. Sigh, see how fast people tend to forget the little details of the supernatural, when we place so much focus on details of LV/Gucci/BALLY(TY!!!) goods. It was until during svc when i'm suddenly reminded about the feeling, and i had to pen it down immediately. :)
God done it for David, He done it for Jesus, and if He DOES it for ME. Im ABSOLUTELY SURE He will do the same for you! Trust His heart! :)
Today was also the first time im serving in Attributes, of cos, God makes sure i remember this for life. This was shared during the briefing,
Philippians 4:13 - I can do ALL things through CHRIST who strengthens me!

Man. im super tensed up now!!!! it's like butterflies in the stomach+the heart racing all together.

IT'S MY TP TML!!!
I tink im partly so tensed cos, to be honest. im nt a gd driver. I 'AGAR' everything through during my driving. it's like bad habits die hard!!! haha, but WHO DOESN'T AGAR AFTER HE/SHE PASSED?! ok, i probably haven earned the right to do 'agaration' yet. "STEEEEL" i hope i will get to share a really good testimony tis wk!
Prayers are really efficient with FAITH! Had a setback for tomorrow tp initially.
PC smsed to tell me i might not be able to go for my tp tml. For some reason when i replied, i felt prompted to not fight like i used to when i get unreasonable demands in army. Now i come to realisation, Trust and let God do it. So i replied nicely, asking for PC to just help me out. After that, some of us went into prayers and i felt really good about it. And hold and BEHOLD, i got a call from PC that he's able to let me clear half day off to do my TP and wished me all the best for it! hah see what prayers can do!
I recalled how i used to pray for cab every sun at the most inaccessible places =X and the cab will just come. And im glad to say, it still works. haha!
hah, as much as im tensed now. im also quite excited to see whether prayers will come to pass tomorrow!!! I really hope i do well, unlike previous attempt of 22pts n 1 immediate failure...
GOT TO PRAY MORE AND TRUST!
And lizheng did sth quite funny today, he was using my bb to surf websites today and went to an online shopping website tt i intend to get stuff from, and started browsing thru kid's clothes! See, the generation is going through a transition right before our eyes. how can we not stay tune and see what happened next!
I shall come forth as gold. watch my plan birth forth.

oh. no. im getting older arent i? haha! oh yea before i forgot

HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY KAREEN!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINUS!
Anyway, i haven been updating a lot abt my army life. It's definitely getting better, just a lot of route marches to prepare us for Aussie exercise coming next month. I have been attending cg wif jelly legs, blisters and abrasion for awhile. haha! oh well, the toughest is yet to come, but hey W506! Rmb,
WE WILL ALL BE HAPPIER THAN EVER AT DEC! LET'S END THE YEAR WELL!
Also, i was just accepted into Attributes ministry! haha, the interview was quite funny,
Interviewer: Why out of so many ministries u want to join Attributes?
Me: To be honest, im currently still serving NS, but i want to serve in a ministry.
Interviewer: oh ok.. but u haven answered my question. why Attributes?
Me: haha, ok to tell u frankly, My cgl suggested Attributes. so here i am! I dun want to say so much of a hoohaa thing, but ya, just want to be frank.
And the interviewer was quite nice, she gave me an insight what's it about and yea. cant wait to serve after being around for so long!
On a sidenote. I really hope im able to really hold up to be a place of influence to the people outside the walls of church, and impact with what i learnt in church. And yep,
Having done all, STAND!

4:48P.M.

meant to blog earlier n get some slp before i report back to camp in 7 hrs time, bt im unavailable to do so due to the sudden change of events. ok, it's not tt sudden, i kinda expected it to happen. Anyway today i wanted to blog something rly long tt i typed out my train of thoughts in my bb b4 reaching home. but first, a shout out to the ppl i love.

HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY MAG!!!
GLENDA I MISS YOU!!!
yay, ok back to wat i wanted to type. I went to zonghan(happy birthday dude!) party on fri and took a cab back. The cab driver stopped in front of me, apparently there was another passenger in the cab, but he still offered to send me back. I swore, for the first 2-3 mins i was thinking whether im seeing things. tt probably there is not a person in front... but well.. u noe. hah! *sweats* The cab driver clarified that he's going supper with his wife, and saw me so decided to pick me up. It's the first time i actually encounter this, and the uncle is probably the nicest taxi driver in the world. He told me he will not charge me the midnight charge and even asked me when i reached my house whether i want to join the couple for supper! hah! but it was quite a sweet scene that i was in. Imagine even at such age, with such a busy work schedule, the elderly couple can still find time to spend with each other, even at work! Let alone us, always say army shag, sch shag, no time spend with loved ones. It's not about the time u spend with them, but the effort and sincerity u put into it. yep.
Anyway i went for svc at jw church today. That place never fails to amaze me, with the people and the exposure im in. Today i made a new friend with Uncle Steven. He is approx 50+ this year and a logistics driver who been to my camp before! tt's an achievement rite thr! haha no im joking. I was speaking to him and he was telling me about serving in church as a driver that brings the elderly to church weekly for dialect services. And not only that, he used to be attending in the main english service but chose to go to chinese service as he didn't quite understand english. But he found that the chinese service wasn't that beneficial to him as he cant learn much and TRANSFERRED back to attending english svc! Wow! The fervency of this man and passion for God really touched me. He was so urgent about his own walk wif God that he made sure he wants to learn something in church every week. More importantly he is still actively serving in the ministry at such age! It really shames me, when i have been in church for so long and only starting to serve in attributes! As the bible says, God uses the weak to shame the strong. For the weak says he is strong, for God is with him!
The children church kids led the congregation to praise and worship today. They are really good! hah seeing is believing man! Imagine at the age as young as 4-5 u are singing and dancing in front of thousands! More imptly, their big day actually drew 11000 people and 6000 for them made a decision today! Indeed, let not the youths despise their age and the adults disregard the youths!
Just felt that God is speaking to me about this few issues lately. He gave me really a lot of examples.
First if u tink you're too old to serve and play a part, what about uncle steven?
If u tink ure too young to be any help, what about the children church kids?
Indeed, let's not be resigned to our age. Let not the youths despise their age, let not the old feel too tired, too OLD to serve God.
For God's eyes are looking through the land, searching for one who is willing. Will u be willing today? Will u forsake being pragmatic or be obedient to God's voice today?
Svc was about being first will be the last and the last being the first. It speaks abt James and John's mother speaking to Jesus abt giving the sons position. It decipts how we in society are so uptight about grabbing positions and rising up the corporate ladder. This is all the more clear to me since im in a marketing dog eat dog environment. It really challenge me on what is more important today, being pragmatic or stay true and obedient for the kingdom of heaven. hmm...
Indeed we all must proceed to walk closer with God. We cant rely on grace of miracles forever. We cant only rely on what we could see as the sole evidence. We need to progress to seeking and more imptly ACCEPTING the grace of truth. I had about enough on always harping on how gd and bad times were in the past. Im done with basking in past victories. Friends, let's not be satisfied and always seek for GREATER victories! Yes, the past might be glorious and all, but we should never let this hinder our path ahead. Remember Lot's wife? She had a lot of past victories of her own, yet she constantly looked back and ended up tangled with the comfort zone she established, not being able move on. Everyday of our life, we should never be satisfied, cling on to God till we get a renewing of the spirit through His word.
EAT WORD. GET LIFE
