Women Of Destiny

What a year of Sabbath... This year I see many of the things that can be shaken in my life....SHAKEN... And I'm sure it's the same for some of us.

As we go through tough & difficult seasons of our life....Let us Remember Jesus. Our God is great. His unfailing love, great compassion is for us.

Psalm 51:17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise

Romans 8:31-39 (New Living Translation) Nothing Can Separate Us from God’s Love
31 What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? 32 Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? 33 Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? No one—for God himself has given us right standing with himself. 34 Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us.

35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”) 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.

38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Who is KINDER BUENO???

Poor Bren Bren!!!! Hey dun be frustrated!!! Cynthia to the rescue!!!! the mystery commentor is non other than -> -> -> My cute cute boyfren!
Kinder bueno because he buys them occasionally from 7-11 for you (if you didn't run off too early) Rough paper because Jo needs them for exams & he always, somehow, managed find a stack for her :)

now really. who's the chap with all the funny names? it's always nice to have a visitor, but it'll be even nicer to know his/her name.

we've been talking a lot of love lately. not cynthia's sudden outburts of 'let's talk about boys!' (an unfortunate accident on my part) but true love, the type where you excercise when someone wrecks your most beloved mp3 or something. it's pretty tough to truly love someone i realise.

i for one thing, won't turn my other cheek to someone when they slap me. a classic example is when i tried to reconcile with an old classmate of mine. we shall call this person D. it started rather awkward for D happens to be a rather formal person in cyber chatting and got worse when D hit a raw nerve when a sensitive issue was raised somewhere in the coversation.

D was right of course, but i still got annoyed the way the way the issue was brought up. suddenly i wasn't too keen on reconcilation any more. for us, when sparks start to fly we start to fly away from the situation. but to truly love would be to embrace each others' mistakes and comprimise frequently. well, if jesus can love us, we have to excercise the same type of love too right? this is going to be hard, but apparently i'm going to try to talk to D again. i've been trying to connect with those i usually ignore, and i don't get very positive results. it's really important to treasure the friendship when it's still good man. spread the love!

in honour of our mystery commentor,
'pancake'

i know i'm mad to post two things in one day. but i receieved funny inspiration from cynthia and Ee jay (woah).

funny things to do(by my whole family)

1.talk while grinning all the way in a restaurant. especially to the waitresses. whoever opens their mouth first is the LOSER.

2.read out the descriptions of the menu while ordering. eg."hi can i have your muddy mud pie: ice cream packed with biscuit punch with delicious hot fudge enveloping it that will whet my appetite?"

3.go to an exotic restaurant and order the dishes with the hardest names. "can i have ajshkitedlooo?"

4.greet them with unusual enthusiasm and hesitate. eg." HELLO! can i have uh, uh, uh.....(let 5 minutes pass)"

5.book a hotel room with a huge bed. share all your jokes, laugh until you roll off the bed and go back up again. repeat till your tummy feels really painful (my mom)

6. question your parents on their love life. this turned out to be really entertaining for my family!

7.go into a lift with someone. hold the door open for a really long time before closing it. when it closes, turn to an empty space and ask"why albert, how rude. why keep us waiting?" (not original)

8. teach your dad new words. like when you say something rocks, it doesn't contain actual stones. emo is an emu, and an oxymoron is not used for scolding people like the word 'moron' (all of the above are my dad's resposnses to the following lingo lessons)

9.bring a camera along for camwhoring especially when your mom put on makeup. my mom purposely did so on our last family dinner. she went to the extent of doing an ah lian smile for us all.

10.share your ambitions. eg. my hilarious childhood friend kenneth. "my dream was to be a security guard. then i wanted to be a dishwasher." from that evolved my sister's dream to be a photocopier.

11.(special) imitate the jonas' brothers' songs. they are SO FUN to do. britney spears is good too, or even jay chou. my dad's favourite is jay chou, but my sister and i take jb, britney and miley cyrus plus other funny dudes anytime. who knew singing out of tune could be so fun.

all of the above was actually demonstrated by my family. try at your own risk, but it proves to be especially exhilrating when you're all on high.

haha.
