with service focused on friendship in the family of God and most importantly with He Himself, i can't help but to appreciate more what i have already had. shirls asked me this question before, "who do you consider Jesus as?" my first answer was (and is) 'as a friend'. of course He's also my peace, my comforter, my saviour, my Lord and the list can go on and on. but the first thing that came to my mind was 'friend'. the one that can never fail me. not only that, He put more friends into my life as well, true friends that can touch my heart beyond words. i love this family of God.
ps jeff and claudia invited shirls and me to their parents' house for steamboat dinner on friday night. it was a very blessed night and we definitely ate A LOT. they couldn't stop feeding us with food, after the dinner we had fruits, snacks and even ice cream (ben & jerry's) haha a very hospitable family. of course it's a good time of laughter as well. you know, it feels good to eat together with family at home.. on real dining table.. i bet all the foreigners here can identify with me since we can hardly have the chance to.. so i'm really thankful for their gesture of love ^^
sat was another east coast event with cg, kinda disappointed that we could not kayak after so much anticipation. well anyway i decided to go for cycling, not that i can cycle haha.. me and marvin shared a tandem bike with me sitting behind of course. it was actually quite fun, the rest of them went for roller-blading. we went to cosy bay after that (indoor stadium area). the place is really not bad and we spent quite some time there eating, drinking and crapping, samuel shared his knowledge on nuclear and atomic bomb to us =p
YS drove me to somerset (really thank God for his van). went to marche for a very funny farewell dinner given by my ex-leaders in youth team hope. eevoon is really very sweet to arrange everything, after being postponed for so many times, it has finally come to pass haha.. but one thing that i didn't expect is for them to celebrate my bday as well. eevoon, jiehui, ian, justin, alvin, joe, himyi, sinhung n jiamin, really grateful to have them in my life, serving together in this kingdom. thanks for the heartfelt affirmation and gifts >< continue on to give your best for team hope ok!
blessed by the cg as well on sun! though the cake box fell to the ground and turned it into one of the most artistic cake ever, it's still a delicious one haha.. glad to share the celebration with weiling and i was actually feeling touched with the things shared by them. the day is followed by a short meeting with cara, going to be involved in our upcoming sub-d event and i believe this will be one good experience, esp working with new ppl. the auditorium cleaning was almost done by the time i reached nexus again in the afternoon, hahaha thank God everybody for working so hard =p ended the day with a good dinner at pepper lunch and nice desserts at coffee club with susi, yupei n mandy. it's very fun but yah spent too much. oh well..
listening >> peace - jennifer knapp all tempests He will bind with a mighty word *livi* 11:42 AM
