Shirley shirley!!!
God is good all the times.
Most importantly, God loves you, God likes you and He is crazy about you!!!

Wow!!!!

Today, I went to church service with ah lian!!
She was so happy to see me.. and wanted to spend all the time with me...
hahahaha...... right lian?? :)

Today message touches me.

Korean pastor Che Ann. He is good. He shares with such sincerity and passion, you can feel God presence everywhere. He used to be a hippy from US, very rebellious and was addicted to drugs. One day, He prayed to God and asked God to revealed Himself to him.. and Jesus showed up...he began weeping for 3 days... God breaks into his life and he was changed radically!!! He never went back to drugs anymore! God is good! God uses him to share the good news to many nations and thousands of churches were birthed because of his simple desire to know God.

You know, as Christians.. we are still human ... sometimes we sins... sometimes we walk away from God. Sometimes, our passions die... we get tired....

Nowadays.. I felt that Im not as passionate about sharing Christ as before... Im not as passionate as before.... something dies down inside me.....

I thank God He is always near and never fails to bring me back to Him. Today message is for me... (I know its for many people too.. but to me, its special!)

It's bring back memories of how much I love God.. how much I trusted in Him... How much I love to share the good news with others, how much faith I have in Him.... God broke into my heart once again and bring me back to Him. ...

God bring me back to focus... its funny... how as human.. we can forget our destiny so fast....

Che Ann Pastor shared and I recorded some of them down...

"I only have one life! Do not play church, don't ask God to bless the dream and goals you have... its not about what I want to do, my 5 years plan... 10 years plan... but ask God about what He wants me to do... then success will come... as we walk with Jesus."

"2 things to remember when walking in difficult times"

No1. REJOICE!!!!

Rejoice in the Lord and gives thanks always!!! Amen!!!
Give thank to the Lord even when things are not good...
Give thanks....

Before we walk and cross over to the next level of our life, there are bound to be obsacles and barriers... purpose is to mould our character for the new challenges ahead.

so move in faith, do not complain, do not fear, do not doubt.. keep moving... keep moving through the difficult times....

No.2. REBUKE!!!

Rebuke every spirits that come to destroy, kill and steal...
the bible is clear about satan... who comes to steal our joy, destroy our faith and kill our soul and destiny...

We must stand firm and rebuke every spritual attacks from the evil ones...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

God spoke to me lately.

As I was praying about my purpose in life.

"Your purpose is to bring hope to the world"

I was dazed.... hope? to the world?

Im not Jesus... how to bring hope???

Jesus then reveals how we can bring hope to the world... sometimes, a prayer can save a person life, a touch can cure depression, a listening ear can sooth the pain... many ways....

yah... I can be used to bring hope to the world...
and this is my purpose in life?

Amen!!!

Then He spoke again.. "always rely not on your own strength but MINE..."

Yes Jesus! I will rely on YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lord, help me stay focus in YOU. You are my joy, my everything!

Im late for 3 days again! I have found my "Keys to winning at the workplace"
Will continue for today.

Key #2: Only applicable for christians

"Don't just make a living; design a life"

Recognise God as your true employer and celebrate your boss.

You look for your sense of appreciation, job satisfaction and rewards not from your earthly boss but from your true employer.

Many ways to celebrate your boss, but I will just write one!

Avoid the reputation of "complainer" at all costs.

Never voice a negative without a reasonable & positive recommendation or alternatives.

Key #3
"If you love your work, you'll be out there every day trying to do it the best you possibly can, and pretty soon everybody around you will be able to catch the passion from you like a fever." Sam Walton

Pursue work compatible with your abilities and interests.

He wrote in this chapter that he spoke to a man who has been working in the same company for 27 years. When asked him why, he must have love his job.

The man replied, "No, as a matter of fact, I hate it."

"Because it's so convenient," "It's just 10 min from my house."

It's amazing that a man would endure torture for 27 years just for the sake of personal convenience.

Yet many people spend their lives at jobs they detest. simply waiting for retirement, pension or a gold watch.

"Find something you love to do and you will never have to work another day in your job."


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From the other book, "Head start"

When you think you can, you can.

When you think you cannot, you have wasted your time thinking! Why would a person want to spend so much time thinking and then concluded that he cannot? He s better off not thinking at all.

Choose carefully how you think.


:)

Good night! Have a good day today!!!

OHAYO GOZAMUS!!!

What a great morning!
Today is good! Not feeling tired anymore!
HAaaaaa... slept till 930am today. Not too bad! :)
Yipee.... Oh, I wanted to write on the 2nd and 3 rd keys to success in the workplace.
But, I CANT FIND THE BOOK!
I guess my sister must have took it to her office! Ai yo....

It's okay..... Lets write about another book by Andrew Goh.
Great book of motivation for a month. I finished it too.

Day 1: TODAY is the FIRST day of the REST of your LIFE!

How true? The past is past. Let's start all over again! Make today the best day you will ever had.

SO, we start with: being your best,
Then, becoming your best.
Finally, sustaining your best.

Today is the only day we have. Yesterday is a cancelled cheque.
Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is cash.

Things don't just happen. We must decide to make it happen.

Tomorrow beings today.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Enough for today? hhaaaa..... let's live for today together. Stop dwelling on what has been done/undone yesterday. It's gone forever.

Today will be a great day! Amen! :)

Thank God for the help He has rendered to me thus far in my career! Thank God for friends who trust in me to give me a chance to serve them. I really do appreciate friends who show their trust in me in this way. It touches my heart. Its beary heartwarming to see even people whom I have met for the 2nd time trusting me so much that they are willing to just pass me their IC/cash home. Thank God for these people.

Yesterday I received the first SMS from one client that wrote, "Thanks for your service! You have done well." I felt so encouraged! ahhaaa... yeah!

Thank God! :) :) :)

Good morning!
I wanna write what I have learned in "secrets to winning at work" here. 20 keys altogether. Starting from today, i will post one up each day!

Actually I have finished reading all 20 keys within a few days 'cos they are so interesting. But I forgotten most of them quickly too. No, this time.. I will only read one each day. In this way, I will be able to absorb more and really remember them. It's for you too if you are working :)
Hope you enjoy it. :)

Key 1:
"In order to succeed, you must know what you are doing, like what you are doing, and believe in what you are doing." Will Rogers

Accept WORK as God's gift, not a punishment.

It is designed not only to provide fro material needs, but also to bring them satisfaction, enjoyment and fulfillment in life.

If you love wat you are doing, then you don't want to quit.
If you want to quit, then you don't love your work. It's just that simple.

wow.. one more week has passed. These days were very busy studying & working. 2 papers to take again next week. Endless exams.. but it's great.. we must always learn something each day. I went to the library to study this afternoon. Went around to look for magazines to read. I took out 2 fortunes and began to read one of them.. "The best advice I ever got."

There are numberous stories of successful peoples and the best quote/advice that they ever get in their lives. So interesting, I began to pen down some of them.

"Be yourself"... Jack Welch

"Be nice to people"...

"Respect people for who they are, not their titles/status."

"Don't listen to naysayers."

"Have the courage to stick with a tough job"

These are some that I hope to carry with me whereever I go.

Don;t listen to naysayers....
Don't listen to people who says..."You cant make it. You are dumb. You cant succeed. You are doom. You will fail. You are not going to make it anyway. You are ugly. ........

DON't LISTEN TO NAYSAYERS!!!

Don;t let what other people think of you control your life.

You can MAKE IT. YOU CAN SUCCEED. YOU ARE GOING TO SUCCEED ANYWAY. Believe in yourself. My God will help me.

WAit on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord! Psalm 27:14


It's Sat again! I shall rejoice in the Lord today!
Lord, come & refresh my heart & spirit again! Let me live in the joy of you Lord!
Lord, the world is always demanding more of us each day!
Help me to be focus in YOU!

"Focus"!!!

Keep my heart pure from all filthiness of the world!

Yipee..... below are some pics taken on on this year birthday celebration! Thank you all for remembering my birthday!

Thank you all!!! so touch!! especially to receive so many sms when the clock strikes 12am to the next day. It's so sweet just to know that someone actually remembers. :)

SO have a look at all the pics below...

ACtually these days wasnt feeling too well & good. Don't want to act tough but I am weary on some of the days.. this heaviness comes stronger when I learned that one of my sec sch mate was killed in a bike accident recently. Even though I have seen deaths many times, I was grieved the fact that a promising young (age 24) man is gone just like that!

A few years ago, I came to saw this new that"Hall King" (Hall king is the most handsome guy among the hostels) of my school, NTU was killed in a bike accident.

I dislike people who rides bikes... it is extremely dangerous!

I hate it! the most when people commit sucide! I hate it!!!!
Nothing in this world cant be solved!

When the devil plants this evil thought in your mind, Just shout to "it" to GET LOST in the name of Jesus!

Everyday, there are thousands of people who just pass away just like that............all over the world..

We, who are still living, why dread another day to come? "sian" to work, "sian" to be alone, "sian" to play, "sian" have nothing to do, "sian" to do houseworks, "sian" to study, "sian" all the times....

Shouldnt we live life to the fullest each day?
Don';t waste away our life.

Everyday can be meaningful when you do this.

To Love!

To love is the greatest commandment God has given us.

We are made to love and be loved.

Be free to receive love and be free to give love.

Think of others more than ourselves and just love.

When you give, you will experience the greatest joy!

Love your neighbour as yourself!

Love is God & God is love.

The greatest of all is love.

Without love, all amounts to nothing.

Let us being today by loving! Loving yourself! Loving who you are! You are unique & special!
Love people! Love may not return you love but to love and failed is better to have not love at all.
Love God! How? Pray and simply talk to him about anything. He loves it!

Starts each day by loving!!!

Lord, this day I pray that You will fill my heart with Your love!
only so, will I be able to love freely.

Amen!

YOU MUST MAKE YOUR OWN OPPORTUNITIES.-----------------------------------------------

Your destiny isn't a matter of chance,it's a matter of the choices you make.It's not something you wait for,but rather something you pursue.Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities.Seize common occasions and make them great.Opportunities sometimes come disguised in the form of misfortune,or temporary defeat.You can start where you are.You're at this moment standing in the middle of opportunity.If you act on your dreams you can live them.

Quote of The Day...

"What you think of yourself is much more important than what others think of you."


– Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Playwright and Philosopher
