What is your True Fear? Your Result: Being Alone While you may act like you don't care on the outside, on the inside your biggest fear is being alone. You can be quite shy and reserved.

try this out! then post your results here! at the same time to keep this blog alive~
What is your True Fear? Your Result: Losing Someone You love affection and the people in your life more than anything. Your greatest fear is that one day someone you care about won't be there anymore. You are a very friendly and inviting person, who draws in a lot of friendships with your kind, considerate, and loyal nature. However, deep down you are slightly insecure and unsure of yourself. You couldn't deal with it if you didn't have one of your loved ones in your life anymore. You don't have too much to worry about though, because with a friend like you, no one will want to lose you either! |

Be Better Daughters
1:03 AM - Sunday, January 25, 2009
today's sermon preached by Pastor Prakich was awesome amen?
i'm really determined to show more love and care for my parents, i know that without these, i will never ever be able to bring them to come to know God.
i think i have the tendency to take my parents for granted, especially my mum.
like expecting them to wash my clothes, iron them, clean the house, pack my room etc, to the point that i sometimes see no point in thanking her thinking "its her job", "she's the mother, that's what mother's do"
i'm wrong to think like that.
our parents do all these things for us unconditionally, the least we could do is thank them.
this reminds me of an incident that happened in india during dec08. during dinner, we ate homecooked food at home. there was fish, rice, soup all that. then the fish is the kind that has many tiny bones. so my dad specially took the bones out one by one, making sure all the bones are removed before putting it on my plate. i didnt really realise him picking the bones so i just said "daddy, i don't want fish le".
what i said really hurt him. he purposely take out all the bones even though he cant see the bones properly for me, afraid that i'll get choked on it, and i just said i don't want it.
i didnt realise i hurt him until he said "jade, i took out all the bones for you and now you say you don't want it."
oh man! we will never know how much our words will hurt our parents. not all parents will express their hurt verbally like my dad did. be careful of what we say and do to them.
yeap!
let's aim to be better daughters to our parents!
when they see how we've changed, they'll know its God.
yeap! haha! looking forward to hearing many testimonies regarding you and your families!
c'mon easta2! we can do it!

my Healer is better than any doctor!
10:25 PM - Monday, January 19, 2009
heyo!
God is cool cool cool!
yesterday my shoulder was hurting like mad after the cg retreat at sentosa, its really very painful and sore. i decided to use my mum's osim ipamper to massage myself.
due to being skill-less in this area, i ended up hurting my shoulder even more.
its was very unbearable and painful to the point that my left arm is practically useless.
i had to type using only my right hand when i'm using the com, and during qt, i had to twist my left arm in such a way that it helps ease the pain a little, even putting my arm by my side hurts.
i couldnt focus on my qt or other stuff. all i thought was "ahh God faster heal my arm", "very pain, stupid osim thing", "God pain uh!!", "my arm, my arm". and i kept complaining to people through sms. and the next afternoon when i woke up, the pain is gone!
its amazing! i can even carry bags which was impossible to do yesterday. God is cool!
also wanna thank denise, she prayed for me. yay! thanks shepherd!
i'm healed!! i'm typing with two hands now. hehe!!

Our Shepherd ROCKS
11:24 PM - Saturday, January 17, 2009
heyo!
today's service was awesome! though i only made it for sermon and altar call, God still spoke to me greatly.
what really struck me was the point about a sheep being a creature of habit[1b]
i mean, there's definitely alot of bad habits in our lives that we find it hard to overcome or get rid of. like me, i have many bad habits, like biting my fingernails. i've been trying to quit for very long le, like since sec 2 i started, but i couldnt. the habit has been with me for almost 10 years already.
so, we need God to help us overcome such tough habits in our lives. i wanna overcome my bad habits!!!
we need God to lead the way, we are short-sighted, we can't see what lies ahead of us. instead of just discovering the mysterious future on our own with the fear of danger, why not follow God's footsteps? go where He goes and we reach our destination safely.
yeah! i wanna hold on to God, the future is so full of uncertainties, but i know with God, i will get there.
i love this sentence alot:
character is like a tree, the reputation is like a shadow. the shadow is what we think of, but the real thing is the treei wanna to lift God's name high!!
yay!
let's cling onto God!

God is so cool!
you guys know that yesterday we had no cg venue, seriously no one's house could be used.
mine couldn't, despite asking my mum so many times and promising her that i'll keep the house clean, she still said no.
however, yesterday, out of desperation, i asked my mum again.
and it was so cool!
she agreed!
yay! God never fails to do something at the right time!

God Never Fails
4:59 PM - Tuesday, January 13, 2009
WHOO! during this whole O'level period God really showed Himself real and faithful to me.
before i sat for my papers, i didnt focus fully on my studies like what most people would do.
but i focused alot more on ministry stuff. and it was nearing the end of cg08 so i was pretty distracted. i was really reluctant to study because i wanna be with the rest chionging for cg08.
anyway, i screwed up some of my papers, like math. so i was pretty worried.
and throughout the week before i get my results, God gave me peace.
i wasn't nervous. Praise God! many people were like "how how? results are coming!" but God made me different, yay! lol!
so here are my results:
English Language: B3
Combined Humanities: A2
Mathematics: C6
Science[Phy/Chem]: A2
Chinese: C5
Chinese Oral: Merit
Altogether i got an 18 for my L1R4, just enough to get into the course i want - moving images!
YAY! PRAISE GOD MAN! especially for my math. i lost like 32marks because i left the questions completely blank, not intentionally of course, but i passed! God is cool!! YAY YAY!!
also wanna thank God for sending people to encourage me, be it face to face, through encouragement cards or smses. they really assure me that i'm not going through this alone.
Thank God Thank God Thank God!! Praise God Praise God Praise God! WHOOWHOO!!
"Today is the day, You have made, i will rejoice and be glad in it!!"
YAY! WAHH I'M SCREAMING FOR JOY!
GOD IS AWESOME!

was feeling very very very stress since the start of the year.
this and that din start out too good.
it's like totally cui, cant do anything well.
don't like school system this year, time table sucks etc etc.
family problems.
my own problems.
emotionally very unstable.
everyday worry what will happen tomorrow, what if i do this, later kenna scolding?
what if i do that, later cannot make it?
i worry, problems come somemore, worry more.
until i really really cant take it le.
cry out to God.
some sort of 'blame' him why put me under this whole process over and over again.
really feel super duper cui. keep asking why why why.
BUT THEN,
He told me that he only gave me strength to worry about today and only today.
not tomorrow or any other day.
really felt very relieved then.
He also changed my perspective of seeing things.
always dreaded of going school.
but the morning i wake up, dunno why but feel very excited to going to school~
always thought that tchers will rmb what i did last year etc.
but din't :D
yeah~
hehe.
just to like remind all of u that a new year = a fresh start.
put it behind and start all over again alright? :D
JIA YOU EAST A2! :D

jade's back on track

whoo! my retreat with God today was awesome!
God really spoke to me druing my personal worship just now.
wasn't really doing well these past few weeks, i didnt really notice till recently when all the symptoms of spiritual dryness showed in my life.
oh man!
anyway, i had my retreat le, cried out to God, now i feel all refreshed and ready to continue my journey with God.
yeah!
this is what God spoke to me. [got illustrations]
yup, so now we're on our journey with God, going where God wants us to go, choosing God's path.
but sometimes, along the way, obstacles and our own sins will block the way, causing us to be stuck and we can't move on.
so we have 3 choices to choose from.
1. we do nothing and just let things be.
2. we make a detour and choose to go our own way
3. we let God come and take the barrier away for us, letting us continue on with our journey with God.
yeah!
this involves us in letting go and letting God.
by letting go of our sins, our material wealth, our life, it removes the barrier away from the right path - God's path. without letting go, we'll just be stuck in the same position. so let go, repent, commit you life to Him. He will forgive and help you throughout the journeys, taking away every barrier along the way.
as i was reading the Bible, i came across this verse. its the first verse of the chapter i'm suppose to read.
Psalm 32:1-5
1 Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. 2 Blessed is the man
whose sin the LORD does not count against him
and in whose spirit is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent,
my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
4 For day and night
your hand was heavy upon me;
my strength was sapped
as in the heat of summer.
Selah
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you
and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, "I will confess
my transgressions to the LORD "—
and you forgave
the guilt of my sin.
Selah
it says in v3-4 that if we keep silent, if we do not repent, we are "wasted away". we will grow weak. but in v5, when we acknowledge and repent, He will forgive and take away our guilt.
yes man!
i believe all of us have some areas or sins in our life that causes us to feel guilty and condemned.
God doesn't care about how many sins we've committed, but about how many we've repented.
when we repent, He will forget and cover those sins up. yay!
i feel so refreshed by God!
whoo!
time to chiong!
love, jade
Testimonies from Irenekam
2:37 PM - Sunday, January 4, 2009
I had been wanted to share & blog this testimony in east a2 blog, but I keep forgetting it (!)
But now, I'm so going to blog now. :D
It happened on the 31 dec, east countdown. Yeah, cos i didnt buy my books on 30th,
then I go buy during 31st morning.
When i was waiting for the bus, (common testi, but still must blog down) I prayed
for the bus to come faster. within seconds (?!), it came! :D Praise God!
When I was walking to school, I prayed that the school bookshop will not have so many ppl, if not will wait very long & waste alot of time.
Then i went inside. WOW(!!) Only 2 person, excluding me! Yeah man.
So i get to buy in 10min time.
Then during the countdown, I also prayed that my dad will allow me to go home after
countdown, cos I was supposed to reach home before 11.
So when I called my dad, he was angry, but he allowed! :D
weeeeeehooooooo!
Then while I was waiting for cab with shushan & others, we also prayed that a cab will come. The taxi stand was super duper long, alot off ppl calling cab, we called too, but fully booked. So we had to wait there.
Then suddenly a cab came & stopped infront of us, ppl alighting & driver signalling us to hop in.
It was soooooooooooo WOW (!!!)
See, God help us in different different stuffs. :D
God is powerful, amen?!
