ive had a pretty eventful week, being busy is good. success in baking! on my own first then at jus'. haha. im glad i have my appetite back so i can eat all i want. hur. (on a side note, i did a really stupid thing- i didnt look at my fuel tank level until i was driving home at 1am last night, and i realised it was dipping below E. so i freaked out and am so thankful that there were so many gas stations along bukit timah road, or i wldnt have known what to do.)

and last night, as i sat down to reflect on the events of the past few weeks, though the human part of me wishes i didnt have to admit it (we like to wallow in self-pity), God has been so, so good. the past few months have seen me coming to terms with the power of prayer and recognizing this as a wonderful, yet often unutilized gift from the Lord. during these past 2 weeks, i have been thoroughly convinced of the power of prayer.

sometimes you need someone to sit with you and listen to you cry, hug you and tell you they'll be there for you. but sometimes, you just need loving family, faithful friends and patient teachers to support you everyday in prayer.

Ephesians 5 says walk in the light, walk in love, walk circumspectly.
2 Timothy 4:7 says "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
Matthew 25:21 says "His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’"

You see what i could never see, and You love more than i ever could. the things that i have are just borrowed, they're not mine at all. the Lord has given and the Lord has taken away- blessed be the Name of the Lord.

funny that yongyong sent me an email with these lyrics this morning:
From here I can't see why You'd choose this path for me
But I don't have to understand to believe
That You know why this road
Why this way and this load
You know how far I must go
Till I see, Till I know
Why this road

these are the exact words i wrote on my wall (my room wall, not my facebook wall) years ago, when i first started out in faith, when i thought my faith was firm and unshakeable. now i know thats not true and its time to pick myself up, and try again.

we sang a song during service yesterday- trusting Jesus that is all. when the moments come, i know He holds me in the palm of His hands. and for now, that is more than enough for me.
