Blessings from heaven

This week is definitely different from last week. I have told a friend, Lok, last week that I was trying very hard to see some light at the end of the tunnel but was unable to. I was literally groping in the dark. This was his reply : "Tho u walk through the valley of the shadow of death, u will fear no evil. FOr His rod n staff, they comfort u." I said amen to that =D

Then, on saturday... a new found friend (I mean church member... church getting too big to know everyone), bought me scones for tea =))

On saturday as well, a dear church elder, Uncle John, gave me this inspiring advice after a short pep talk, "Young girl (ahem... he knows my age and he still calls me that =*) shy..), must persevere. Cannot give up so easily!" He spoke partly to me in Foo Chow (I can understand a bit).

** I think they must have witnessed the breaking of the dam =*)

Then came monday... managed to finish drafting and vetting of 7 agreements and... have the honour of another church member, Uncle Steven, accompanying me home in the train. After the nerve wrecking experience last month, I got kinda paranoid about going home after it's dark. Well, he did confirmed that I have lost some weight by saying this "Oh yeah... you are right. You have lost some weight. You had had a bit more than a chin before" =p

Then on monday as well, I had lunch with my ex-boss, Hisham. He didn't forget about me =*) Well, he didn't come in the whole of my last week in the office and I was kinda sad because I thought that both of my bosses are not happy with me at all for leaving them. But Hisham apologised and he said "When I came in on Monday and noticed that you were not in the room, I suddenly realised that I have forgotten that your last day was last week!" Awww... so sweet... =*) shy... And he asked me a question about something(quite funny) with regards to an event which took place many months ago... hahaha... he quite "phat" also...

Then yesterday... bumped into Julius (head of the communication in OCBC... and a fellow christian from Cheras Gospel Centre, who knows Chris M, my TL for nepal mission, and Pastor Seng Fei and wife)outside of HSBC and he totally agree with me that our floor is exceptionally quiet... uh huh... He said that it was worse when he came in 3 years ago. Now is better. Haha... maybe I will make some changes by laughing out loud on and off and starts shouting out instruction every now and then =p

Yesterday again... guess who I met outside the lift of OCBC????? Grace!!! Another church member and... and.. my ex-CG member. Isn't God amazing? Julius said "There, you have friends here. You just have to be patient." Yar... God know what I need to keep persevering.

"Father, here is my life. I feel like a broken jar, cast out among pieces of clay, among ordinary things, broken, fragmented, crushed. I'm only useful for scratching a miserable itch like Job. Father, forgive me for taking things into my own hands and spoiling everything and making such a biggie big mess. Father, I offer myself like a dove, for I am neither a lamb or deer, everything that I am and have to you. Please take my life and transform me into the firstfruits of your new creation, of the harvest you desire to give me, of the revival you want to breathe to wherever you place me. Father, use me to carry the presence of the holy dove, the Holy Spirit, for the blessing of many. And Father... I commit today to you... grant me fresh understanding of the work before me and the humility to be willing to learn from scratch and to say "I don't know". Thank you Father. I pray and ask all this in Jecus most precious name. Amen"

Psalm 68:13
"Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold."
