Frustration

http://pinterest.com/pin/67413325643097823/

More grace needed during this time. Pre-internship stress, confusion and 'thrown in the water' feeling. Giving thanks for the uncomfortable uncertainty because it makes me realise how much I want to control things and pushes me to depend on God. Right now, worries and frustration shouldn't control me, for God has saved me to be free.

Abiding in His Light (:

We went to Marina Barrage and Gardens by the Bay yesterday. Apart from having a picnic, we had a photo competition and worked in trios. Our theme was 'abide' and 'gentleness'. Hence the text in the picture, " Abiding in Christ begets gentleness". It was quite hard to take pictures in the night because I'm not sure how to operate the camera in such a way that it can take a picture the way my eye sees it. So, I learned that God's creation of my eye is something that is hard to imitate...it operates on its own...focusing according to brightness or darkness etc. because God made it that way. But all in all, I'm thankful for the time of fellowship and teamwork we had together! It was really relaxing too.

God's love letter for you

So much for wanting to posting a picture a day...haha...I'm lagging badly behind! >< Anyway, this video really ministered to me during the recent camp I had at school. I thank God for who He is. This love has come at the price of His blood. So often, caught in the cares of this world, His love for me is drowned out with letting the world's voice overpower mine. I need to dwell in His love everyday in His Word.

Durian ice cream!

Durian ice-cream!

Mum made durian ice-cream and it was really rich in taste. :) I'm thankful for having a mum who is fantastic at cooking and baking...(a skill that I've yet to grasp as well).

To have food is by His Grace, and we say grace to thank Him. Often when we give thanks for the food, it is often termed as saying "Grace". I'm not sure why but I think it should be to thank God for what He daily provides!

Lina and National Geographic!

"Where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them"

 Matthew 18:20 

It was awesome seeing Lina again! By grace, Jen, invited me to go along with her to visit Lina...Our plan to surprise her kinda failed but nevertheless, we had a great time chatting with the as usual cheerful sister. Clad in yellow, she laughed incessantly, serving us with joy, as she introduced toys and crazy prices, folded clothes and arranged the out of place goods. We had an enjoyable time! :)

A marathon of essays!

My new black glasses: compliment from bro's new glasses. Thank God that 2 essays are down! I was surprised that my body could take sleeping late but I really don't want to do that again. This week so far has been God's strength carrying me through.

"And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh." Ecclesiastes 12:12

May 9-Blessings

Blessings this week. :)

May 5- Amazing Race at Labrador Park

Here's Xue Zhen having fun at the slide! :) Our group was waiting for our turn at the second last station of the amazing race- "Flight A380" Thankful for the teamwork, joy and never give up lessons! The weather was a real blessing too, cool and refreshing. :)

May 4-Home cooked food

Again, it's one of those rare days in the week when I can savour mum's cooking! She cooks the best food. Today, I'm thankful for the long break in school where I got to spend time in some bible reading and that Hui Min encountered God as an answer to our prayer last BD. She messaged me to say that she got into BP-mentoring :)

May 3- Sunset

One of my favourite stoning sceneries would be the spectacular sunset in view everyday just outside my window. Isn't the blend of colours splashed delicately across the sky a beautiful artwork by God! He closes the daylight with such pizazz!

"Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding". 

Proverbs 3:13 

My meditation during today's reading. Wisdom begets joy. Not human wisdom which is "all vanity" as Solomon puts it in Ecclesiastes. God's wisdom. My heart is encouraged at the JOY God gives when I seek Him. 

May 2- Cranberry Cheese Bread

One of the days when I reach home by 4pm. Love freshly baked bread from the bakery near my home! This is a new flavour.

May 1-Pulau Ubin :)

A day at Pulau Ubin. Here are the sisters with their bikes. It was quite hard to choose just 1 photo out of the few I've taken. Thankful for the friends who came, good weather, time of cycling and good fellowship! :)
