i thank God for..

1. i thank God that i dun have to do hurdles this weekend, because i am not ready for it.. phew.. big sigh of relief..

2. i did a personal best on monday.. 42.67 yeah..!! i am so happy.. but my legs are still aching..!! arrgh...

i still want to thank God for so many things.. for the people in my life, for the friends that i've made, and i pray for the salvation of my parents..! sigh.. its so hard being a Christian sometimes.. sigh.. but its alright...

many many stuff..

Dear God,

I want to thank you, for all the people in my life. So many times I have thanked You, and I will continue to do so long as I live. Lord, I don't really know why, but I want to thank You for the girls you have put into my life. There's xiaoping, my cell leader, there's Samantha, Shinuan, and now, the girls i've met in ACJC, Melanie, Elaine, and Vali. Lord, I want to thank You for placing them in my life. For Your purposes, let their lives glorify You, just as You have place them into my life for fulfilling Your plan for my life. Thank You Lord...

lord, take away this pain in my abdominals... i trust in you....

i shall not fear death, for even death shall not part me from your glory and power. i shall not fear. because my love is in you, and you have given me eternal life through your son. Let my life be the testament of your love, as you have loved us........

thank you God..!

whats truth?

there is no real truth in the world we live in. our world is subjected to relative truths, and these truths will not be, when there are changes in the world, and when there are changes in what we believe in. some of the things that we believe in, they are relative. these truths will not stand the changes of man. for even the monuments man has built will fade and crumble by the grind of time. so what is really true? haha... being a christian, the answer is God, duh.. haha...

really.. the world is just a facade...

ooh.. and i almost forgot..

i suddenly remembered that i need to buy jeffrey sachs's How To End Povety. i think its a cool book by one of the leading economists in our days. but i have to wait at least march 21st to get my hands on that book.. that means i can only get it on tuesday.. aww man.. that sucks a little, but i dun mind the patience.. haha..

that also reminds me to ponder the qns.. am i in love? has cupid struck me with an arrow? anyway.. that brings me to another point.. was just thinking, thinking, and then.. BANG

if God is fulfilling His purposes for us in our lives, then He is surely fulfilling the purposes of our friends in their lives. that means, we are part of God's purposes for our friends..!!

mind you, that means we have a responsibility for our friends... in all we do, i think that means we have to be a little bit conscious with what we do with our friends. its kinda like, thinking 'Dear God, by doing this, am i fulfilling Your purpose for my friend?"

so whoever is reading this blog.. hope you gain something this moment..

God switched on the light bulb in my head..!! haha..

16th march 05

this is sounding more and more like a diary.. haha.. with the dates as titles.. aww man.. aiyah.. just couldn't think of a title anyway, so just use the date lor...

anyway, there was a camp on mon and tuesday for track and i went there, and i think a lot of us had a lot of fun together. so, yar, it was nice.. haha... and then there's me becoming some funny guy.. i dunno.. but its alright.. i dun really mind becoming the target of jokes. its ok.. haha..

but there was some other thing that happened. i met up with a girl for some coffee and to study. and she was asking me this chem question. so she had come close to me, beside my seat. so she bent down a little and her face was just next to mine. it came to my attention that if i just turned my face a little, i could have just gave her a little peck on her cheek right there and then. yup.. a little kiss....... but nah... it wasn't the right time, nor was it the right place. besides, i dunno the girl well yet, so i better not do anything stupid. for example, tell her i like her.. my heart was just pounding so hard in my chest... but surprisingly for me, i could still be calm and still outside.. i could still study a little but most of the time, i was looking at the chemistry stuff she was working on. and i was about to become stupid and ask her: 'can i kiss you?'.... no way.. i was so, so restrained... i can't believe my self.......

but after all, i would like to thank God that i didn't do anything stupid and spoil this potentially wonderful friendship... haha...... nah.. its not rite that i say her name and spoil everything.. haha...

march on 2005

received my exam results... though not in entirety. A-ed chemistry and maths, which were within expectations, and F-ed physics, which was very below xpectations... sigh.. but i did A1-ed my chinese AO... hahaha.... yeah...!! more free periods..! haha.... more time to study physics...(need to do that...)..

so thank God for all the marvellous results, as well as the very bad ones... because we all have to thank God for the good things, and praise Him even for 'bad' things...

was very tired at track, so didn't get good timing.. sigh... chill.. there's still a little way to go... haha..

i wanna thank God for all the people i've met in my life... haha... not by chance, but by His will..!!
