Meteor Shower
I went to Japanese gardens last night with Abby, Pi Ying and Cavell. Spent the night there to catch the meteor shower but ended up only got to see four shooting starts cos it was cloudy but that's good enough! Had lots of fun and I guess it was a really refreshing experience for me =]

4th Nov
I was on the train to school this morning, more than just looking at the fact that God put me on Earth 15 years ago, I looked outside and somehow, the things around me really caught my attention. People always say, God created the whole Earth, trees and all that stuff but I never really appreciated all this things around me. When I saw the trees, waters, the sunlight and the people around me, I felt amazed at how wonderful God is! I mean it's like, how do you create water and all these other stuff out of nothing?! And all of these things are made for a reason!When I looked at the people around me, their purpose in life is 'Worship'. Which is our response to what we value most. We, human beings are made to worship, realize we're always longing for something or someone to worship? Look at the people in the train station, the man who constantly curse and swear, the people with tattooed body parts and the many earrings, the man that talks on the voice and makes sure everyone hears every word that he says, each and every person is made to worship!
Everything God makes is good and has a reason for it's existence, nothing God has made is junk! God did not make a mistake when he made you! =]

Quiet Time
I've been doing my quiet time but I felt spiritually stagnant and dry. After going out with Darren on tuesday, I realized that there was something really wrong in how I had been doing my quiet time... I used to just read a bible verse and a small part of a Christian book sometimes but most of the times my quiet time would only be maybe about 5-10 minutes? Just doing it for the sake of doing it before I sleep. Until one night I felt God say, "is this how much I mean to you after all I've done for you?". I knew I wasn't honoring God in how I did my quiet time.
So, I decided to change the way I do quiet time! I don't wanna offer God a cheap offering. I wanna give Him more of my time!
Instead of doing quiet time at night, ad far as possible, I do it in the day. And instead of just a short prayer and then read the word, pray and get my heart right with God. Speaking in tongues really helps me focus on God whenever I can't focus on Him... though reading Christian books helps build up our spiritual life, reading the Bible is very very important. So i'm now reading at least one chapter a day =]
Really good stuff! I feel so different after giving God something that costs me something! =]

Complaining
What is one that you always complain to God about? For me it's really the whole thing about whose better... Sometimes I complain to God about why I can't play the guitar as well as other, why can't I be as good as others.
But rather than always complaining to God, why not we thank Him instead? =]
We really shouldn't take what God has given to us for granted.
Complaining to God is like saying that God had made a mistake. Just like a child complaining to his dad why all his friends at school has a toy when he doesn't. It's like saying his dad made a mistake! How would the dad feel? He love his son so much, care so much for him and the son says that the dad had made a mistake? How would God feel when we complain?
There's some book that writes, "complaining to God is like giving God a slap in the face".
When I heard this from Darren, it made me realize how ungrateful we can be!
So, before complaining to God in future, let's give it a second thought =]
God Bless

Capture me again
Staring in silence I see the page,
But my heart is in another place.
The music plays, the voices sing.
Oh, but what does a song really mean?
It's so sad but so true,
It's just another moment missed with you.
Oh,capture me again,
Revive what seems so dim.
Restore whole first love's fire,
My heart's desire.
So inequipped, the words of a prayer,
But they dissolve into the thin air.
I see the pain within her eyes,
I give a smile as I quickly pass by.
It's so sad but so true,
It's just another moment missed with you.
Oh,capture me again,
Revive what seems so dim.
Restore whole first love's fire,
My heart's desire.
I see the beauty of your goodness,
but I settle for something much less.
Your gentle whisper, your presence so sweet.
Will I walk away or set at your feet?
Oh, Jesus please break through.
I don't want to miss this moment with you.
Oh,capture me again,
Revive what seems so dim.
Restore whole first love's fire,
My heart's desire.
Capture me again.
Capture me again.
