ANGELS' "GRADUATION" CEREMONY

24TH, SATURDAY

Gosh, I totally made a fool outta myself!! Isshh!! Never will I accept an offer to go on stage and share anymore!! *shivers*

I started attending the “let love grow” (LLG, one of BG’s activities) meeting in BG a couple weeks back… thinking of just sitting in and listening to what the plans and programs were… little did I know that it was trouble I got myself into!! Darn!!

One part of the event was supposed to be a sharing session by a few selected OKU’s… sharing on how they can still love themselves despite all the trials they faced being OKU’s, what was it that made them determined to go on… then sort of sensing that SC (siew chin) will call on me, I kinda looked down at my notes, pretending to be jotting down important stuff, writing and wateva, praying REAAAL HARD that she will not call me… but thanx to jia yee, who just had to nominate me, there wasn’t any escape for me liao… knowing SC, no matter how hard I tried to squirm my way out, it will still be in vain… Haihh…

So, fine!! On this day itself, I felt really nervous… I really had the urge to chicken out, go and tell SC that I'm calling it quits… but somehow, I didn’t… but really, all my burning-midnight-oil and brain-cracking for ideas of what to write went straight in the drain when I went up that scary looking stage (in Summit… shopping complex, of all places!!)… goodness, it’s really so embarrassing to just lose your train of thoughts and end up stoning there, not knowing how to continue… I dono what else to say, I just know that it’ll take me a really, really long time to get stage fright out of myself… wonder how some people are just so naturally spontaneous, haihz…

Well, all in all, just thank God for that experience, even tho it’s a bad one ><

25TH, SUNDAY

Having attended the camp in UKM (in apr recently) together, which is the first part out of 3 parts, and learning lotsa stuff about one another, the volunteers a.k.a the “angels”, are then required to go and serve in the community (a centre of their choice)… they were required to spend 15 hrs helping out in whichever areas that the centres needed help in… afterwhich they will obtain their second wing… the first wing is automatically earned when they attended the camp itself…

And the third part would obviously be this graduation ceremony… And it is finally here, yoohoo *smiles* I'm not scheduled for any duties today since the LLG event is over and done with… but I'm here to support those “graduating angels”, hehe… CONGRATULATIONS to all you angels out there!! Great job done, really!! Thanx for going all out!!

After the ceremony, we sat down in discussion to plan for another similar camp next year… woohoo… and guess what? the response were 100% frm the crowd (volunteers & OKU’s), hooray!! Well I'll definitely go again, trust me… nothing else will stop me, che wah… hehe ><

TOUCHING...

Haha, I know I have posted this website before about this “fairy tale” song by Michael guang liang… but this is more interesting, in the sense that it has a story linked to it… the ending is indeed a sad one, but it is also touching… coz it shows how the couples’ love for each other stands strong despite the storms of uncertainties (the girl’s sickness)…

call me crazy, but I really love this… esp the meaning of the song *winkz*

忘了有多久 再没听到你对我说你最爱的故事
I’ve forgotten how long it has been since I’ve never again listen to you telling your beloved fairy tale
我想了很久 我开始慌了 是不是我又做错了什么
I've thought for a long time I start to panic, have I done something wrong?

你哭著对我说 童话里都是骗人的 我不可能是你的王子
With tears in your eyes, you said to me, fairy tales are all full of lies, there’s no way I’d be your prince
也许你不会懂 从你说爱我以后 我的天空 星星都亮了
Maybe you will never understand ever since you said "I love you" The stars in my sky have lightened up

我愿变成童话里 你爱的那个天使 张开双手变成翅膀守护你
I'm willing to be the angel that you love in the fairytale Spread up my hands become the wings to protect you
你要相信 相信我们会像童话故事里 幸福和快乐是结局
You must believe... believe that we can be like that fairytale, prosperity and happiness to be the ending

JUZ FOR FUN

You’re a romantic girl. You’re kind, caring, loving and peaceful. You spend a lot of your time dreaming and you’re not afraid to express deep emotion, whether it be in a poem, diary or words. You hope for love and affection from your Prince Charming. I have a feeling he will come around soon.

Haha… was viewing shin yee’s blog and noticed this thing that she posted… sounds like some kinda personality tests (i love personality tests)… so, just went and have a look at it, and ended up doing it myself…

And shin yee, you know what? the outcome of my results are exactly the same with urs ler, hehe *winkz*

SATISFACTION & CONTENTMENT

Are we satisfied with our lives? or are we not? if yes, why… or if no, why not? this is what the sharing was about in cell last friday… when Joan said that we will go one round (each taking their turn), I started thinking of my purpose in life, and whether I was happily satisfied and contented with where I am right now…

I would say that I have my satisfaction and dissatisfaction as well… one of the main things that I was satisfied about (which I truly thank God for speaking to me about it) was that I’d found my area of ministry… I didn’t know or cared much about serving Him until I came to Grace (a place where I have, undoubtedly, matured much in Him), where ps henry was constantly speaking on serving (the heart of a servant), and missions (which also include the ministry that we are in)…

As I began to understand what these two terms really meant, I also wanted to find out the right ministry He wanted me to serve in… some place where I can be natural in doing the things I love!! it wasn’t just by the snap of a finger that I found out… it took me more than 5 years to discover that, really!! He has shown me, through dreams and visions from friends, mostly adults (even had one preacher, evangelist – I cant remember what the church called him – prophesied that I was to be involved in children’s ministry), that I was best suited in areas where kids and/or young children are involved… and having served in one relating to these cuties, I can truly see the fruit of my labor, glory to God!! At least I'll know that I’d be able to serve Him well in the area I'm called to…

Yea, so basically, serving has to come from the heart and when we have the joy of doing so, we will see the satisfaction of it… amen? Esp when you can see the kids maturing and growing in the Lord, and in His Word… kids, even at their very young age, can do pretty well, and they learn pretty much just by observing the people around them… through my many years of dealing with them, it is observed that they particularly look up to the authority figure, esp those who will take the effort of spending the extra time finding out wats goin on in their daily lives…

But I do have to admit that I need brushing up in my spiritual walk with Him…

Lord, I come into your presence
I enter in with open arms
Come renew my mind, my spirit
I will overcome
Lord, I come into your presence
I enter in with open arms
Come renew my mind, my spirit
I will overcome

Pre-chorus
Coz I know, it’s your touch
In my life, makes me whole
To feel, you near
It’s the longing of my soul

Chorus
Come again, saturate all my world
Come again, to this arms open wide
Come again, this is my prayer
Coz I wont let you pass me by
Come again
