8th of March 2009:

‘As thou goest step by step, I will open up the way for thee’

He gives us enough light for today, enough strength for one day at a time, enough manna for our daily bread. The life of faith is from point A to point B, and then from point B to point C. Each stages of our lives are necessary and are part of the movement towards the fulfillment of the promise God made. Being where you are is a gift and God may replace another gift but the receiver accepts this gifts with thanksgiving. This ‘gift’ is for today.

Living each day as it is. Counting your blessings along the way. God still owns tomorrow.

here i am, wasted a few hours and still no progress on my buyer consumers behaviour assignment. Really, i have no idea why i took up marketing subjects but i guess i just have to suck it all in and come up with something close to  amazing but with this attitude?? maybe not.  Basically, i have to talk about Ivan pavlov and his dogs. haha yeah, the bell, the food and the salivating part. Then to Skinner’s pigeons. Kinda forgot what this experiment is about. So then i have to back these theories up with some examples from the banking industry. Sounds easy but really, i have no idea where to start. . .so help me.

I need a big green park and a clear blue sky for my mind to wander off. I really need it.

Notice a kite?

aaargh, i need to decide! i need to decide! I am quite a decisive person i think. Thats why i dont really go through much tedious decision-making processes because i may just be  jumping right into the first thing that came into my mind thinking that i’ve already given much thought about it. Thats probably why i always ended up buying too many dresses that i don’t need or i forgot that i owned them. oh, ignore what i just said.

So anyway, these has no relevance at all, a series of photos of what i did for the past few months.

The siblings and their spouses (except me!). They came back for a short one month.

my easter

Posted in My God, my all on April 12, 2009 by jiunnli

This Easter was particularly special to me. Probably because i was at my most fragile time of the season. Several days before, i took on a journey to the cross as I ponder on Jesus death and God’s motive behind all these and also how Jesus was raised from the dead 72 hours later, leaving the world a sense of hope that His second coming will bring.

 

. . . but hmm,  what if Jesus is not coming back for us?

What if God changes His mind?

 

This stirs up my heart as I reminded myself of the truth.

The world You left behind; Is it worth fighting for?

 

We simply presume that no matter what happens, He will (and of course, the truth is, He definitely will) come back for us. I personally think we, who are fallen from grace give Jesus no reason to come back the 2nd time. In fact, we are not even close to worthy for Him to come the first time. We should’ve been destroyed there and then! We disappoint him over and over again, we deliberately do things that we shouldn’t do, we hurt Him no end, we do not understand peace, we took advantage of His mercies, we do not love correctly, we whine and complain over the slightest things, we chose other useless idols, we are blardy disobedient and gosh, we have unlimited liability of sins! The list goes on. Why would Jesus even come back for people like us?

 

. . .But God remained faithful. . .to us.  

 

Just because we couldn’t keep our own promises with one another doesn’t mean God will break His.  In Romans, though everyone in the world is a liar, God is true. Simple as that. We are made right in God’s sight when Jesus died for our sin and He will come back again regardless how the world has turn out to be or how unworthy we’ve become although, of course, mankind is the last reason why God should offer His grace and endless love.

the cross, our answer to everything =)

Dream

Posted in music & lyrics on April 10, 2009 by jiunnli

I was a little girl alone in my little world who dreamed of a little home for me.
I played pretend between the trees, and fed my houseguests bark and leaves, and laughed in my pretty bed of green.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing.
I had a dream.

Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park, I asked God who I’m supposed to be.
The stars smiled down on me, God answered in silent reverie. I said a prayer and fell asleep.

I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree.
I had a dream.

Now I’m old and feeling grey. I don’t know what’s left to say about this life I’m willing to leave.
I lived it full and I lived it well, there’s many tales I’ve lived to tell. I’m ready now, I’m ready now, I’m ready now to fly from the highest wing.

I had a dream

I was no longer special. . .

Posted in Joyless + Melancholy + Depressing + Pathetic on April 9, 2009 by jiunnli

Me heart broke when i repeatedly say these few words to myself.

I got up from the wrong side of the bed yesterday and soon after, my whole day was completely ruined before i knew it (yeah the emo-ness has been dragged on till today). I wanted so much to understand what triggers my bad mood but i guess i can only blame myself.

Really, today in particular, i don’t exactly feel dandy nor was i excited for life. Gosh, i am hitting 22 soon and yes i reminded myself I’m only going to be 22 once. So what next! I think i am going to attempt Goth, paint my nails blue (wait, i actually had turquoise on my fingers now). Wear some really skimpy dresses to college perhaps? oh yeah oh yeah, dye my hair purple or something? Actually i had something like that on my mind except its going purple-ish brown. haha! as if robert cheong allows these. . .

Gosh, i do not feel at all special tonight but i want to be. A sudden realization hit me. Sometimes feeling special does no completely depend on your own sentiment  but rather on how those around you who truly love you make you feel. This is because they have seen ‘one-in-a-million’ in you!!=) 

. . . . .I was no longer special. That is why.

Shouldnt have stayed up for the football match later.

Should i stay back for the weekend?

Ah, movie therapy tomorrow. Something to look forward to!

Tomorrow, tomorrow, its only a day away. . . =)

Yes, one assignment down, 4 more to go for this sem!

Goodnight world!

Liverpool! liverpool! liverpool….woot!

i hope the nail fetish will go away =P
