finally back after a long absence!
Looking at my last post dated 14 September which is 10 days ago and i realised how long it is since i last blogged. I decided to start blogging again to share more of my life with everyone.
For the last 10 days, many things have happened and many lives have been changed, including mine.
It was a long last week of school as presentations and essays were a big part of my life. Rushing for presentations and deadlines for essay took the most out of me and at the end of everything, i was dead tired. thank papa God, it is all over now. The next busy time will be exams which will be in 1 week's time. While in the midst of all these, i realised how much i need papa God in my life. His grace and mercies. His mercies are new every morning is the only thing that brought me through the last week.
This week, there was another period of grieve. On tuesday morning, i received news that mervyn's dad passed away suddenly. Received the news in the morning and we were there in the evening to offer our support and condolences. I spent the next 4 days helping out at the wake and offering my support to merv and his family. In those 4 days, i manage to know merv's mum a little more and also his aunties. Every night, i saw how close this YC family is, offering help in doing little things and giving support to merv. YC-ers just came and did their part, getting drinks for guests, opening doors, traffic marshalling, moving tables and chairs. Everyone just did what they can. It was a testimony. It was a showcase of papa God's family. Somehow, relationship building is part of the YC giftings. I never expect the little things that i do can bless someone so much. Heard about merv's mum's comments on me, i was blessed. not because of my abilities, but because of papa God's grace in my life. The glory all goes back to papa God. Had lunch with the family after the funeral on saturday and it was a good time to a closure for the long week.
From a time of grieve, it quickly changed to a time of celebration within a hour. It was charis' wedding on saturday and some of us attended the wedding at cornerstone church. it was a good time seeing her again and could really see how happy she is to get married. it was nice catching up with her and uncle timothy. After that, we went back to church to hang-out for a short while before proceeding to sentosa, palawan beach, for some north indian food at the invitation of Aunty Sally. it was good and the food was fantastic. after that, it was home sweet home to catch up on lost sleep over the last week.
Sunday as usual was spent in church. Arrived in church around 1.35pm and waited for service to start. The speaker today was Brent Chambers and his son, Nathan. I was blessed by his words and his music.
Had a bite at kopitiam after service before going back to church for trainee jamming. Because of some miscommunication, we didn't do the intended training and did some jamming instead. It was good i guess.
Dinner was at Plaza Singapura's Long John Silver. Got home and decided to go online for a short while and well it ended up with me writing this blog entry. By the time i'm done with writing this blog, it was 1.15am on monday morning. i am tired. i need to sleep. goodnight...
