WILL you live it out?

Today's a good day at school. I'm starting to understand alittle bit more about God's will for my life. But before that, the interesting things that happened today.

1. Went for Wang Junling's ms2008 tutorial today! Realise for this subject, really have to take time to understand the concepts, find relationships b/w certain variables (eg: J and v) then learn how to equate and derive equations.

2. Decided to go back home early today and bumped into Derrick on the Pioneer MRT platform! we had a great chat about our individual lives, music, guitars, bands, ministry! cool stuff. found out he's an avid electric guitarist who's serving in many diff places! this guy's an inspiration :) - rocks. so looking forward to jam!

3. Mum was on the same train going back home after Derrick left

4. We had ice jelly for dessert before going home.

5. Went for a run at bishan today... some thoughts that popped up in my mind

- Why did God create me? - so that He can enjoy me - find joy in His creation(me). He loves me. Also, he has a plan for me. I am now carrying out this plan that he's created. Every single step of the way, I am carrying out His plan! isn't that amazing? there are no coincidences in my life!

- Predestination - I thank God for creating me and even giving me the opportunity to let me be His child. Its in His plans... but how about those who are born into a broken family/ never had the chance or opportunity to hear from Him? - are they predestined to hell? - assuming that they never hear about Jesus in their lifetime?

- The father who rode the bicycle and his son in the backseat - Abba showing the beauty of nature and life to His beloved son(me)

- The father who pushes(while running) his son, who was on the skateboard - God's hand will always be upon me when I go through life... esp tough times. He wants me to persevere and lean on Him because He's in the driving seat in our lives. He's in control and His plans will never harm me.

- Everything that i've done and will do has already been planned out! even before i was born. I just have to pray God's will over my life!

OAC Funfair Gig afterthoughts

If man's love for another can be so filled with passion and emotion - as 11/10 love songs imply...
How much more would God's love for us be?
Thus we need to constantly remain in His love. And may our lives be filled with love as we strive to love others unconditionally.

Happy birthday.

Happy Birthday Singapore!
Thank God for Singapore!

See the moon and the stars, look how far we have come
Look around at our faces, they shine brightly in the sun
With our hopes and dreams, imagine what tomorrow it may bring
What do you see? What do you see?

I see hope.
I see deliverance.
I see a glory.
I see a promise.
I see my Saviour
I see love.

Pilates

shucks i'm the only guy in my pilates class!
yeah i joined pilates today and it was my first lesson.

i joined because i want to improve my breathing. no joke!
i realise recently that i have been unconsciously holding my breath when i do alot of things...
and holding my breath means keeping pressure in and its bad for my health, posture and alot of other things
and also for singing too.

super paiseh today when my leg suddenly made a cracking sound when there was dead silence in the class.
the instructor said "wah now national day got fireworks ah" - so sibei paiseh! sigh... but not bad lah. its quite good. one one hr session per week for one mth. $70. and get to see girls, exercise and improve my breathing. not bad a deal.. not bad at all

Imperfections

Recently a song from natasha bedingfield impacted me because it reminded me of the ordeal that I went through as a teenager.
I zhnged the lyrics abit so as to suit my situation I faced. Have a good laugh now. Because it don't affect me no more! And reflecting back, it was truly an experience i wouldn't trade for no other.

"Pimples" (Taken from Freckles - Natasha Bedingfield)

I used to care so much about what others think about
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
The slightest remark would make me embark
On the journey of self doubt
But that was a while ago
This boy has got stronger
If I knew then what I know now
I would have told myself don't worry any longer it's OK

[Chorus:]
'cause a face without pimples is like a sky without stars
Why waste a second not loving who you are
Those little imperfections make you beautiful, lovable, valuable,
They show your personality inside your heart
Reflecting who you are

Who you are
Who you are
Who you are

I wondered if I could trade my body with somebody else in magazines
Would the whole world fall at my feet?
I felt unworthy and would blame my failures on the ugliness I could see
When the mirror looked at me
Sometimes I feel like the little boy who doesn't belong in his own world
But I'm getting better
And I'm reminding myself

[Chorus]

Reflecting who you are
Reflecting who you are
Hmmm
Whoooooo whoa hmmmm oooooo

[Chorus]

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
and its not like i still don't get those zits.
i still do. damn. but its part and parcel of life.

now should i squeeze it or spam some more cream.. hm
