A Toast to everyone who reads my bloggie... especially, Mag.. and many others... I know friends have been reading...... and I am encouraged!.. :D
and well, A toast for the New Year 2009!..
May it be better, greater, and
all Glory given to our dear Sweet Lord Jesus.....

Love you guys lots!.... Plenty of Hugs!.. Lets always worship Him, the Almighty King!..

Lets live this one life He has given us to fullest!.. *wink*

Love...

one that gives you courage to be better than you are, not less than you are...

one that makes you feel that anything is possible...

This is the caption I got from a movie titled "Nights in Rodanthe".. lovely movie.... and it also said.. the following..

"I want you to know that you can have that (love)

I want you to hold out for it

I want you to know that you deserve it"

Woww.. lovely.. hehehe..... I like it!.. *wink* maybe it is just the year end.. maybe it is just the celebrations.. or maybe it is more than that...... but know what? what is cool is that I am enjoying life as it is!.. knowing and trusting that God has it all mapped out for me!.. Wheeez..........

Me!.. hehe..

Just me.... :D

Food that we need... yummy.. *wink*

Yesterday's reading in Our Daily Bread was truly good, timely and just the reminder that I need. Especially during this season when all of us have so much physical food to eat due to celebrations.. This truth has about God's Word being our soul food has always been there. Really, it has always been. Just that, knowing us, we tend to put it aside, forgetting that we need them. It is just one of those things.. Hmm..

Even as I scribble away about this, I am asking God to be gentle with me, with us as I learn, as we learn to be good child, good children of His.. Because He loves me, us so much that He is patient.. He waits for me, us.. I don't know about anyone else but that really touches my heart. God waits relentlessly.. He really does. Isn't that beautiful?

Soul Food

ODB RADIO: Listen Now Download READ: Psalm 19:7-14

Your words were found, and I ate them, and Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart. —Jeremiah 15:16

Grocery shopping with my wife, Martie, is like taking a seminar in nutrition. I’ll often pick up a box of something that looks good, and she’ll say: “Look at the label. Are there trans-fats? What’s the calorie count? How about the cholesterol rating?” I have to confess that if she weren’t the nutrition cop in my life, I’d look like Shamu the whale!

More important than making good choices in the grocery store is thinking carefully about the food we digest for our souls. I love the verse that says: “Your words were found, and I ate them” (Jer. 15:16).

When we read God’s Word, we have to be doing more than checking it off our to-do list. We have to read it to digest it. Slow, thoughtful absorption of the Word of God with quiet reflection on its implications is high in nutrition. His Word provides all the ingredients we need to thrive spiritually:

• a direct connection to the sustainer of our soul
• brain food that makes us wise and discerning
• a daily check-up revealing the condition of our hearts
• preventive medicine keeping us from sin
• a spiritual shower of peace, hope, and comfort

Eat God’s Word. It’s a spiritual feast! — Joe Stowell

God’s Word provides the nourishment

That Christians need if we’re to grow;

But if we do not feast on it,

A vibrant faith we’ll never know. —Sper

The Bible contains all the nutrients for a healthy soul.

Funny.. but true.. as the year coming to an end, so much thoughts fly by.. one by one.. lots of thankfulness of heart for me.. I can testify about that this year.. Lots of love, joy, peace.. so much of these wonderful things in me that the uncertainty about the days to come seem not so scary anymore.. it doesn't seem to matter that much anymore because the knowledge and experience of His realness in the present just overwhelms me and warms my heart. I think that is beautiful.. that is lovely.. that is awesome!.. Praise God!.. *wink*

Loving life as it is.. Loving people as they are.. Loving myself as I am.. I do wonder.. and I will continue to dream on.. in His presence.. in His loving arms... :D

Reflection Time...

Ya... Year 2008 is coming to an End.. and just amazing how times fly by so quickly.. been doing much reflections and the one word that came up is "thankfulness".. to God, firstmost and utmost... for family, secondmost... and for friends... It has been a trying year and at the same time, it has been a fulfilling and best year too..... as God, family and friends were with me then and are still with me now and even for the coming days!.. Awesome!.. Indeed, how great is Our God!... He is Great!... :D *wink*

I wanna wish you A.....

BLESsEd ChRIsTMaS!!!!!

Have a Great Year 2009 ahead............ hehehe...

And it does so ever speedily..

This scribbling is connected to my previous scribbling.. hehehe.. before I know it, it is 18th December 2008. Gosh Gosh.... Time flies by when I am having fun!. Can I put a halt to it and enjoy more? hmm.. Oh well, that would be impossible, eh.. hehe.. but it is a nice thought to have! hehe..

Can't imagine too that Year 2008 going to end rather quickly.. and have I missed anything along the way? Hmm.. One thought that came to mind is that I am happy and thankful! Yah!.. Not sure what is going to happen but have no fear coz trusting that God will carry me through it all smoothly and sailingly.. Just need to be constantly reminding myself and others to walk closely with Him, praising Him, knowing His heart.. as Matthew 6:33 says.. "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you."

My favorite phrase, one step a time.. little by little... prayer by prayer... I will be where God wants me to be! :)

My next agenda is "Denmark" in two days time!.. hehe.. Looking forward to it.. as I hope to snap lots and lots of photos.. the joy of enjoying God's creation and beauty.. Praying for good weather.. praying for wonderful time with my fellow-travelmates.. I pray that I would be a good travelmate too coz I can be kinda cranky sometimes.. *blush*.. well, I am not perfect, ma.. hehe..

Kay.. I am off for now.. much to do!.. :D hope to scribble soon....... too much writing to do these days! unlike in the past.. hehe.. Au Revoir!.. *wink*

Time just flew by...

Yup.. It is already 15th December 2008.. Gosh.. hehe.. Anyway, shall start my scribbling with photos and photos that I have uploaded to Facebook.. hmm.. enjoy!.. hehehe..

Hehe.. taking time to put up some photos that I have uploaded to facebook over the days.. since my last scribbling.. Enjoy!..

• SEEDs Hotpot dinner 27.11.08
• Food Photos.. November 2008
• "The King is Coming" Advent Event for women 01.12.08

I really enjoyed myself at the Advent Event for women tonight.. Our Good Lord spoken something deep within me.. and I am so ever thankful to hear Him. Time to do more reflections.. ya... *grinning*

Peek-a-boo...

Just peeking in between.. hehehe.. I know, I know.. I scribbled earlier that I won't be scribbling for a couple of days.. but hands itchy ah....... hehehe..... Think I prefer free flowing writing to structured academic writing.. but then, who doesn't? Well, attempting to write some sensible academic writing and at the same time, doing more reading of articles and books. I am multitasking in the midst of all.. How do I strike a balance? How do I be confident in my writing? Hmm.. the more I write, and think, the more questions I have.. Ooh.. wonder tat is good or bad? Hmm. does it matter? I have no idea!.

Anyway, it is great to take this peek.. It helps to re-focus my line of thoughts as I scribble.. else it would get all congested up in my tiny brain.. nah.. not that bad, ya.. I have other outlets to express and release my thoughts.. ie.. my personal diary and sometimes, I draw diagrams.. if I know how to draw pictures, I would!.. hehehe.. but I do love to draw clouds.. it is great way of expressing myself.. hehehe.. that is just one of the ways..

And this wee hour of the morning brought home a thought.. an aspect of being a woman after God's heart.. and the illustration of a trusting child towards parents.. Lets think about that abit.. and look at our lives.. Are we swarm away by many stuff that our time with Him just being stuffed into a corner of our lives? Ooh.. Hmm.. God loves me.. God loves you.. He loves everyone! and He will always do! that is the amazing thing.. but where are our hearts? I shall leave that thought lingering..

(once again, scribbler going back to zzzz....... this one crazy thing she does.. haha)

Viv on Vacation from Scribbling...

Yup.. decided to take a vacation from scribbling, not because of anything.. but because I got to finish my courseworks and dissertation proposal by December 2008.. So, if anyone reading my little bloggie, please remember me in prayers.. that'd simply make my day, ya.. hehehe..

I would be back on the 15th December 2008... hehehehe....... Pray for me, ya.. :D

God does it again!. Amazing...

Yup.. it was just fabulous to see God at work.. and He works in ways that always amaze me.. and most time, caught me off-guarded.. Anyway, ya.. I am still learning to be more sensitive to His leading..

Hmm.. Just want to write a short scribble to give Thanks to Our Sweet Heavenly Father who loves me so very much.. and I know He loves everyone lots and lots too!.. So cool, ya.. :D hehehehe.... He is ever willing to teach me.. whispering voice, guiding me patiently, lovingly.. Oh.. how I long to hear His voice clearly.. to be able to always come to that place of worship unto Him with all that I have and am.. Just want to praise His Name! and Praise Him!..

Come and join me.... Lets join our hearts together to praise Him.. *smile contently*

Catching Moments...

I very much realise the need to catch the moments especially spending time with family and friends.. Loved ones... even new friends.. If we don't catch it, it will just be blown away in the wind in this tuck and tussle of life that is so ever busy...

And it is the same with God as well... Spending time with Him, listening to what He has to say.. Hearing Him and not start bustling away after saying a prayer.. which we so ever often do.. I am guilty of that crime!.. oops...

Enjoying life, this very life, this very one life that God has given... How to? by not being caught up in the past, by not being anxious about the future BUT by being in the PRESENT.. live the present, what we could see.. the people we are in contact with, and the many things we could do.. using the gifts that the good Lord has given us to do the will that He has for us at this very hour, this very day! with all that we have..

Received a quote today that says.. "Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly...."

Family

Just missing family and home today at this very moment... Don't know what got into me but am in such state.. Well... Shows that I love them very much lar! hehehe...... And, just upload some photos of them in FB...

Click Here...

A Typical Grocery Day....

Hehehe.. decided to snap photos and photos when I go grocery shopping... hehehe..

here it is, enjoy!

Click Here..

the CORE...

This really hits to the CORE... I think it truly is.. Lets listen to this song...

"Stained Glass Masquerade"; Casting Crowns

Do we hide? Are we truly honest among loved ones, family, friends and people? Do we dare to be honest about our state? Would we dare? Would people run away after seeing the true self? I wonder.. and I wonder do anyone else wonder about that too? Hmmm..... something to think about, ya..... ha.. maybe I should seriously consider taking up psychology... nah.. I just take it as a hobby to scribble.. to write of what runs in my thoughts.. not all but just bits and pieces here and there..

"Somewhere in the middle"

Another song to reflect upon.... this song is about the struggle of mankind, I would say it is.. the question to ask is "Are we caught in the middle?"... And I thought this song just sang off what is in my heart, the struggle within at times.. if I am really honest about it, ya..

"Somewhere in the middle"; Casting Crowns

"Praise You in this storm"....

Just felt right to put this song up at this very moment... maybe someone needs to listen to this song.. I do not know.. Hmm... Anyway, even as I listened to this song, I just felt lifted up and know deep down even more assuredly that Praising God in all circumstances is the key!.. Wonder how many people out there truly grasp this truth... I pray that this truth would just sink in wonderfully in the hearts of many especially those that I love and treasure..

"Praise You in this storm"; Casting Crowns..

Yummy.......

Just couldn't resist but to put this picture on bloggie...... I will come back to this restaurant just for more of this Tom-Yam Prawn soup in the days to come.. It wasn't spicy though but I like it coz it just suit my taste!.. and the prawns were fabulous!.. yum......

Enjoy them as I enjoyed the actual moments.... :D Amazing stuff..

Safe in God's Hand...

"Lord, Lord, this is where I want to be...

to be in Your Hand...

to be in Your presence every moment..."

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.

- Psalm 27:4 -

Pass it on!....

I particularly like/love this phrase... "Pass it on..." and there is much truth and much lessons to learn from just these three simple words...... Yesterday at church, these three simple words were spoken of and it reminded me of some things I heard long time ago.... and it was nice to remember them... :)

What do I have to be passed on? Plenty.. all those good stuff that the GOod Lord has deposited within me.. hehe.. and there are more than what I could imagine.. Only the Lord knows how much more.. and that is the exciting part.. as I avail myself to Him, surrendering daily to Him (sometimes, failed but will try again), He is showing me stuff and bringing me to another level to see things I never actually thought of but there they are... Why? because He is the Giver and He loves to give good gifts..

And just another phrase that was spoken of during the church service by a young girl... "What I have is nothing much but I want to give it anyway"... what an attitude to have!.. It is like saying.. in my weaknesses, I still want to help.. Or.. with the little that I have, I still want to give it out anyway... I am praying that I would be able to do that because at the end of it all, it is not about me.. it is really about the building of the Kingdom of God!

I Know Who Holds Tomorrow...

This is the song that was shared by a dear "old" friend.. She shared with me the phrase of the song and as usual, I went to YouTube to search for the song and it was just wonderfully touching.. God has used this song to touch another part of my heart this morning.. It is like.. my little heart looks glittering "pretty" with so many touches of the Lord... I can visualise it in my little brainy.. hehe.. Just want to give all Thanks to Him who knows... who loves... Amen!

and..... I know Who Holds my hand.... hehe.. I really do know...

Do you?

It is truly a journey of searching and seeking...

... another wrong thought just came through.. Hmm.. is it a wrong thought? in my definition, it is. I think it is... But what is the Lord saying? *thinking*...

(Scribbler waiting silently to hear....)

Waiting..

I just wanna to share of what I have read in Our Daily Bread devotion yesterday..... talking about waiting... and I think I have briefly scribbled about my situation, the waiting.. think I am always at this waiting season.. could it be for life? in different areas of life..... hehehe.. perhaps, that is some sense to that.. what do you think?

Anyway, I am going to do the cut and paste from Our Daily Bread... but if you wanna to listen to the audio version, click on the word "waiting" in blue in the above and it will bring you to the page of devotion.. click on the audio "Listen Now".. it is really good, to me it is.. hee..

******

Waiting

Make haste to help me, O Lord!” the psalmist David prayed (Ps. 70:1). Like him, we don’t like to wait. We dislike the long lines at super-market checkout counters, and the traffic jams downtown and around shopping malls. We hate to wait at the bank or at a restaurant.

And then there are the harder waits: a childless couple waiting for a child; a single person waiting for marriage; an addict waiting for deliverance; a spouse waiting for a kind and gentle word; a worried patient waiting for a diagnosis from a doctor.

What we wait for, however, is far less important than what God is doing while we wait. In such times He works in us to develop those hard-to-achieve spiritual virtues of meekness, kindness, and patience with others. But more important, we learn to lean on God alone and to “rejoice and be glad” in Him (v.4).

F. B. Meyer said, “What a chapter might be written of God’s delays! It is the mystery of the art of educating human spirits to the finest temper of which they are capable. What searchings of heart, what analyzings of motives, what testings of the Word of God, what upliftings of soul. . . . All these are associated with those weary days of waiting, which are, nevertheless, big with spiritual destiny.” — David H. Roper

Be still, My child, and know that I am God!

Wait thou patiently—I know the path you trod.

So falter not, nor fear, nor think to run and hide,

For I, thy hope and strength, am waiting by thy side.

—Hein

God stretches our patience to enlarge our soul.

******

I always like it when my deepest part of soul is being stirred when I read something or when I hear certain words or phrases... There are those sounds of clicking when that happens.. Just amazing how God always does that, particularly when the timing is just right!

Today, I just thought that ya.. think the truth is there will always be pocket of time of waiting in life.. In fact, there will be overlapping of pocket of time of waiting.. and it is good for our soul, my soul in particular because I recognise it for myself. He desires to enlarge our soul and our faith in Him.. To have faith is be able to wait in Him.. Hebrews 11:1 says "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." and there is the "waiting" bit somewhere inside there though not directly mentioned.. if we think abit further into the verse...

Hmmm.. Perhaps, I should even consider writing a book on "waiting" since I have gone through many stretches of waiting and am currently in one stretch? hehehe.. that is one of my dreams.. Dreams keep me alive! tee-hee-hee..

So.. what is God doing while I wait? and what am I doing while I wait? There are two folds to this.. and it is fun to discover.. to try things.. to do stuff... to meet people that I never dream of meeting.... Not because I am in UK but because there are more reflection moments in God to think about why I am doing what I am doing.. A new change of environment possibly grant me more inspiration to do that more deliberately especially being away so far... Having said that, this reflection moments is something which I hope to do even more in the days to come.. especially so when I am "really" busy.. I am reminded of again how Jesus always does it.. where in Mark 1:35 says "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed." Those are what I call reflection moments.. going to God.. talking to Him and listening to Him..

Talking about that, I realise that I can talk to God alot but do I listen to Him? Interesting perspective but it is there.. and in the Vine that I have read talked about that bit... where there is a phrase that says "Now, since God designed the plan for your life, don't you think it's wise to get quiet before Him so that He can tell you about it?" hehe.. very true, isn't it? that blowed me away when I read it yesterday... Click here for this devotion reading in the Vine.... I am sure anyone who read it would be encouraged as much as I have or even more......

Well.. I am waiting in the Lord (more willingly this time but there were many times of unwillingness in the past and that again showed proof that I am a needy gal who has got much to learn! hehehe).. and praying that I would be more deliberate in listening to what He is saying.. And, this is my prayer for everyone too... *wink*

Kinda cool...

what is kinda cool? well, being non leader at this juncture of life.. just enjoying being a member of the group.. Currently, am in a Uni students cell group with three cell leaders.. I am enjoying it.. tee-hee-hee..

Having said that, I am being appointed to be one of the student representatives.. haha.. still have some role of leadership nevertheless.. I am cool with that.

Great time of observing and learning from other leaders, especially in church context.. different leaders have their own preference of doing things.. I wonder, would I be in such capacity again later on? Only the Lord knows and He would guide and open door and responsibilities..

So.. yup.. cool time for me now.. learning from different perspective at this point of time.. yo-hoo...

Losing count of Days... BUT...

ya.. that's my feeling at this very moment.. Time flies by so quickly that before I know it, another day has gone or rather another week has gone by.. gosh... and what have I been doing? It is great to be able to come to such realisation and making full use of the time that I have here in Birmingham.. not sure I would be here for long.. but admittedly, I do like what is going on and want to get the best out of it.. especially stuff going on in church and even with my studies.. Wonder could I study longer?

Anyway, I have 8 months ahead of me now.. and the past 2 months have been wonderful!.. of course, there were down moments but like I scribbled before, the UPs outweighted the downs.. Am greatful to God for such precious opportunity!.. :D

Hearing about the change of visa in the days to come makes me wonder and worried sometimes.. and the question that I ask myself would be.. "Do I really trust God for my future?" "Really really what is in your deepest thoughts and heart?" You know, alot of times, we say we do trust Him.. or rather I say I do but when comes to things like this, I behave as if I don't trust Him.. "aiks!"... "No way!.. " but, honestly looking at it.. Actions and thoughts speak louder than the words we profess. That is human tendency, I guess.. and this is a journey of learning and of faith.. and even as I ponder, I am asking Him to teach me to Trust Him in all things!.. and asking Him to check my heart and my thoughts.. Anytime when I am down the wrong road of thoughts, I need to quickly pause and ask valid questions.. God has been so wonderful.. He prompts me gently.. and I am glad that I am not in denial but willing to face what is within me.. hehehe..

As Matthew 6:34 says.. "Do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." and seek First the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you... (Mtt 6:33).. A timely reminder given about this last night.. Just loving it!..

God knows the best and in Him, we have rest and peace.... and that is where I want to be for the rest of my life.... I find myself running, with eyes fixed on the One and only.. Beloved Jesus.

The Rain has finally fully arrived...

think so.. coz it hasn't been raining that much since I arrived to Birmingham.. well, only the past few days it has been raining and even tonight, the very hour I am scribbling, the rain and wind splashing on the window of my room.. so freezing cold, I believe.. But I am in my cozy room with the heating on..

The weather has been cold... and I am still juggling with my clothes selection.. hehehe.. and the latest challenge that I have is my shoes!.. gosh.. my current shoes really do not go well with the current wet and cold weather.. poor old feet.. Have no fear.. I am on shoes hunt tomorrow afternoon.. wouldn't want my poor feet to be freezing and eventually my whole body would be freezing too.. oooh... that simply would not do, ya.. hehehe..

I really pray that tomorrow's weather would be good so that I could go out with dry weather and get my pair of shoes.. hehehe... Anyway, today has been an interesting day for me.. The Lord has surprised me with nice little things just when He knows I would be lifted up with them.. and I just want to Praise Him even more because He is so ever wonderful and fun!.. Being here in Birmingham, away from home, definitely has opened my life to things I never dream of and yes, they are in front of me now.. and I am so thankful that I am picking up good stuff along the way.. Just wonderfully fun and exciting! and more importantly, it is the new friendships that God has blessed me with, in the flat, in Uni, in churches.. and the list goes on and on.. hehehe.. coool....

Well.. I am off to bed now..... good night.... *smile*

Pictures of some Snow... in Birmingham...

Just wanna post some photos here.. :D taken from the window of my room........

Wonder it will snow somemore?? hmmm.... that is the waiting part.. hehehe..

SNOW!

Yes.. snow arrived to Birmingham today.. I was in lecture when it happened.. initially, it was raining flakes.. and then eventually snow.. If I was in room today, I probably would witness it better.. Anyway, it was interesting today as well.. hehehe.. and I heard that it hasn't been snowing for a long time.. so, perhaps, there is a significant indication here.. Hmmm.... what? I am still wondering too.. hehehe..

Oh yes!.. coming to an exciting news!.. I have finally narrowed down to a topic for my dissertation and I am excited about what I would be researching and writing about.. Hope it would be as interesting as I would hope it to be.. I know our good Lord would be guiding me as I research and write.. Looking forward to this interesting journey.. *grinning*

what topic would I be writing about??? check this out.. hehehehe.. the main focus, generally is this.. and yet focusing specifically on something interesting.. profound? hmm.. I am going to find out as this would be my sole focus for the coming months.. lets see what I would discover..

Source: http://www.italiancharmcollections.com/product_beta-greek-alphabet-laser-charm-p25558.html

Do remember me in prayers if God brings me to your mind, especially for the coming months.. I could feel in me that this research would be something very meaningful and fulfilling.. I am praying that I would be sensitive to His leading as I choose specific focus as well as samples for my empirical studies.. Step by step, prayer by prayer, I would be exactly where the Lord wants me to be.. *smile*

Photographed Meal...

hehehe...... wonder my parents would be proud of me... for doing so much cooking!.. here are two pictures of one of the many meals I have cooked!.. do they look yummy???

Nice??

here are the remaining photos in facebook...

Photographed meal! 23.10.08

Awesome weekend!..

I had an awesome weekend.. It was just one of those weekends that I would remember.. multiple encounters with God and it is so cool to be so loooved by Him..

I went for a Christian concert at St John.. called Worship Central.. and I was thoroughly blown away.. much to catch in the midst of all and was really enjoying the music.. it stirred much deep stuff in my heart.. lots of stuff which words just couldn't express them.. honestly. and it felt so warmth inside out.. which I long for and He knew.. *grinning*

Yesterday was awesome too.. with two church services at different church.. The Lord was ministering deep within me.. either I was rather sentimental yesterday or God touched at the right time, at the right spot of my heart.. ya.. think it was the latter..

"Patience trust in the slow work of God".. this phrase stuck in my little brain... Waiting patiently, with perseverance in the Lord.. because faith grows in the process of waiting.. This was spoken of at St John yesterday evening.. and who else was spoken about non other than.. "Joseph in the book of Genesis".. Joseph's story has been spoken of to me numerous times the past months.. I think I lost count!.. Is God making a statement loud and clear to me? *wink*

Well... more waiting awaits me.. think that rhymes nicely... hehehe..

"The Pressure's Off"

There's a new way to live... By Dr. Larry Crabb...

This is the book that I am currently reading.. Real intriguing and exploring.. I am enjoying it. I am quarter into the book now.. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially those who are searching.. and seeking; whether about life, what we are doing, anything at all... I think all of us do that lots but just that sometimes or rather most times, due to commitments and busyness, we put that aside..

Well, today, as I scribble, I just want to challenge everyone to pause a moment and to reflect.. I like doing reflection lots these days.. and it is good for our souls.. and, to go back on track of knowing who this God is.. who this Jesus is.. Knowing His Heart.. Knowing the giver.. spending time with Him.. It is just amazing in this relationship with Him.

Well, I am back to the book.. So, anyone care to join me? Lets journey together for that is how the Lord has made us to be, to be there for one another, encourage and love... So, my encouragement today is to read this book.. and be wonderfully blessed.. Never know, ya.. what God would be saying via this book.. but it definitely has some great effects on me!.. And I just want to share this.. *winking*

Full Day...

Yup.. this is my fullest day of the week with whole day of classes on Tuesday.. Hehe.. Now, stealing some time to scribble before lecture starts at 10am.. and it will go all the way to 5pm today for different lectures.. I would prefer some breather but then again, it is being timetabled such way.. Just have to have more energy for the day.. and I know exactly where to seek the strength from.. the Source, who else.. Our Abba Father who is my provider.. *grinning*

ooh.. lecture starting soon.. so I am off..............

Do Something with Nothing...

This topic (please click on the word "topic" to go to the website and be blessed), I took from Our Daily Bread devotion which was for the Monday 20th October 2008. I got to read this as it was encouraged in the student cell of BCEC to read it as a group and to share if anything comes up... Well, I really thought it was very timely for me even as I read and listened to it at this hour, half an hour after midnight.. "do something with your nothing.." Hmm.. I do have lots of waiting time.. hehehe.. whether it is a short time or longer time at this season of my life..

Ephesians 5:15-21 says, "Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit. Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ."

The daily devotion ended with this phrase "When you find time on your hands, put them together in prayer" which has spoken to me deep, much deeper than usual at this time. God is definitely teaching me something powerful. He has always been doing that.. Just that sometimes, I didn't catch it.. well, He is super patient with me which I am thankful for. It is by His Grace... *smiling contently*...

Good night...

Energized...

so thankful that I am feeling energized today.. Sometimes or rather, lots of times, these moments do come.. that shows how fragile emotions and even energy level is.. or should I say how fragile a person is, particularly me.. hahaha.. maybe it is just me, eh? Hmm.. anyway, looking forward to some lectures tomorrow.. hopefully, I am able to understand the theory as well as the applications.. knowing a little of the right questions to ask and able to merge theory and reality.. in the sense of applications and practicality of things in the finance world, so to speak.. Am I scribbling "jargons"? hehehe..

I very much realised that stepping out in faith really do me good.. it energizes me as I take steps of faith.. Hmm.. real cool.. and I thank God for His guidance and provision.. *grinning*

(Scribbler needs to fulfill her hunger spang... with potatos.. hehehe... )

Carried away....

Sometimes, I felt that.. just conveniently got carried away with things... thoughts... the "doing".. and then, it would be like "oops.." for me.. Then, looking back, I was aware sometimes (for a moment?) of what was going on but it slipped away rather quickly before it could be grasped and looked deeper into..

Complication? Hmm.. I wonder.. Anyway, currently, reading a book by Larry Crabb titled "the Pressure's Off - There's a new way to live"... It is a very interesting book... never thought anyone would be writing it but there it was.. And the way how I stumbled into it was rather interesting too.. hehehe.. Would I do a book review on it? hehehe.. that would take me ages to do, I think.. coz always got stuck somewhere along the process line.. needing to do it "very right".. see, think that is my problem.. Wonder have you caught that? Anyway, I am beginning to see some light to some things.. one step at a time, waiting upon the Lord, they are becoming clearer.. by His Grace.. If by my own, I would have messed it up.. Releasing them once again to Him who knows the best for me!..

(Scribbler has gone wondering off today.... in the depth of her soul....)

Before long...

it is already Thursday the 15th October 2008 now.. Should I be running after time eh? That is the question in my mind now.. Hmm.. if I am to do that, think it is rather meaningless.. Oh geez.. What is the right thing to do, then? Have anyone ever wonder about that? Or is it just something which people ignore even though there is that big question mark? Hmm.. I really do wonder.. In that sense, today, at this hour, at this moment, I am in such a state.. and in many ways, I am glad that I am not denying it but it is kinda weird to be asking such question at this time but yet, this is where I am.. Who has the answer? Would there be an answer anytime sooner? Hmm..

I know God has the answer.. He is our creator.. He knows the very core and obviously, the surface and any part of what is taking place in our lives.. In that very truth, is where my hope lies.. about life and about living.. Otherwise, it would have really been history.. for me, that is. This scribbling is kinda melancholically influenced, I would think and that is part of me which is such.. call it sentimental.. call it emotional.. it doesn't really matter..

but.. what am I scribbling about? Hmm.. what am I trying to say here? Oh...oh.. lets meditate on things.. that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, praiseworthy.. (Philippians 4:8,9.. Viv's edited version).. to further enhance that, let me share this picture I have taken.. I thought I wanna end with this picture.. what does it means, actually? well..... lets all figure out together, shall we?

And.. Lets Rejoice in the Lord always.. Again, I will say, rejoice! (Philippians 4:4) It is matter of choice.. which is why I choose to put up this picture coz it is pretty with its bright color.. just the color I need to brighten my day a little bit.. and that matters.. zip-zap.. off I go now..

I'm back in Action Soon..

Hehe.. just got back from London today and well, need some time to settle down shortly.. and well, need to get ready for lectures tomorrow, ya.. so, can't blog much today but just wanna drop a big "HI!".. hehehehe.. I will be scribbling soon coz much to scribble about.. and photos too!..

Over and out for now.. momento... Be back soon.. hopefully.. hehehe.. ta...

The Capital of Britain..

that's where I am heading tomorrow in my first long distance train ride from Birmingham to London.. and it costed me 6 pounds and 60 pences.. with my student rail card and advance ticket advantage. Real cool, isn't it? I will be meeting my dad's old friend and family over the weekend.. It would be interesting as the last time I have seen them was when I was really small.. So, this would be a rather interesting visit and adventure..

I haven't finished packing yet.. and so, must do so tonight so that I would be all ready to go tomorrow morning.. hehehe.. My train ride is 1055am.. and I am looking forward to it.. hehehe.. Hope to take lots of photos as I travel.. which reminds me to charge my camera battery.. hehehe.. good thing!.. else, there won't be any photos taken..

kay then.. time to do some studying and other stuff too before my trip tomorrow.... till I scribble again.. which will be in a couple of days time....... ta.......

alpha.. beta.. returns, risks.. portfolio.. mean.. median... etc..etc..

and so much more.. hehehe.. those are some of the terminologies that I am using for my studies.. Reviving my statistics memory and finance memory.. hehehe.. which were nicely packed up somewhere in my litle brainy many years back now. Wonder how much I could actually remember..

Well, this is the initial stage of my study life at this juncture.. but what interests me the most is to be able to learn some cool statistical softwares.. I think this is what excites me the most! hehehe.. so fun!.. Gonna go to the computer lab tomorrow and have more fun with them!.. hehehe.. that shows where my interests lie.. don't you think so? I somehow think that being a researcher is kinda fun!.. Lets explore more and see, ya..

Currently, still thinking on the narrow topic that I could write on.. praying and asking God for clarity in this area.. Hmm.. Please do remember me in prayers about this.. I really want to write on something which could really excites me and I just love researching on it.. Wonder what that really is? Hmm.. I really do not know.. but then again, I cannot be in this "don't know" mode for very long.. Just got to decide on a topic and start on it.. gathering information... etc.. oops.. time is running out.. tsk.. tsk.. "God, please help!"...

Well, I better run along and do some reading and work.. cherrio... till I scribble again.. hopefully soon.. :D

Crossroads...

Before I go into the main topic.. I just want to praise God! Hehe.. I am so happy to see what God is doing in my search for a place to belong, to serve, to have fellowship... Obviously, you know what I am scribbling about.. hehehe.. And thank God for new friendships!.. and for kindness!.. :D I got a lift back home tonight without me asking for it.. I am so blessed!.. hehehe..

Well, that is what I wanted to share and now, lets come to the title.. of "Crossroads"... I got this word from the service today.. from Jeremiah 6:16 that says, "This is what the LORD says: 'Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.'" Somehow, this stood out for me today.. Hmm.. Again, there are much truth in it.. What are the ancient paths? What is the good way? These are the questions that I have even as I ponder on this verse..

The above verse is where St John's Church, Harborne gotten the word Crossway for their community work and a platform to reach out and extend God's love to the community.. which I thought was excellent!.. It very much reminds me of DUMC.. hehehe..

Anyway, I very much feel that I am at the crossroad.. and what better time than now to ask what are the ancient paths and good way... Well, it is amazing to see God unfolding what He has installed for me, in His time and in His ways.. All I need is to be obedient and be patient too.. hehehe.. waiting, sometimes or rather most times can be kinda nervy and yet if it is meant to be waited, it is worth it to wait.. to wait upon the Lord who reveals the right stuff in His time..

Hmm.. I have been thinking.. and you know what? think all of us are always at crossroads in our lives.. Hmm.. I would think so and that makes life interesting.. hehe.. uncertain, yes but interesting to see what is installed ahead of us.. Well, time for me to snooze.. still need much sleep so that I can be totally and completed well from the cold.. Good night!.. *wink*

Split into half?...

What am I trying to scribble here with the topic above? I wonder too.. hehehe.. well, I guess it could refer to making decisions.. Some decisions are hard to make and there are procrasinations involved as to really decide which direction to take. BUT, can I split things into half? hehehe.. possibly works for short term but am afraid that would not work out in the long run.. coz the focus has been splitted into half as well.. we can't get the best of both worlds, so to speak.. eventhough we would love to.. well, I would love to be able to do that but reality is that it would be tough.. especially, the timing of things just clashing with one another and I would feel torn in-betweens.. this would not do..

Well, looks like I have to decide where to go and what to do pretty soon.. I think I have more or less decided but shall let it linger for a while before I have the final decision spoken.. Spending time with the good Lord is very vital and important.. Seeking His face.. and then with one focus in mind, to press on, regardless of distance, weather and so forth..

Geez.. the cold is still bugging me.. and I think I shall decide to stay in bed for the day and attend St John service at 630pm.. Shall take my morning medication and sleep a while more... I will be back!.. hehehe... cherrio..

1st Chinese Dish!.. ever..in Birmingham!

Hehe.. I cooked my first Chinese dish today.. hehehe.. It was a simple, cauliflowers, some meat, etc.. The past one month, been eating lots of other "western" food.. Finally, today, fried some vegetable dish!.. hehehe.. tasted not too bad.. Forgotten to take a picture though.. Will do so for my next dish..

And guess what!.. was looking for prawns.. and finally found some but of course, they are all frozen ones.. hehehe.. better than nothing, right? Well, hope to cook my favorite tomato sauce prawns soon.. kinda miss that.. hehehe.. but firstly, need to get one more ingredient.. in Chinatown, I suppose.. Hmm.. I need to figure out, what the ingredient is first.. I don't know what it is called in English.. must ask mom.. hehehe..

Hmm.. maybe I would get the hang of cooking as I explore possibilities of cooking variety food.. I shall invent some dishes.. hopefully.. hehehe.. but knowing me, I love the few favorite dishes of my own.. and loving the potatoes..

Conclusion is I am stacking up my food supply like nobody's business and also trying my very best in ensuring that I finish eating them too!.. Very vital, I would think.. else, I would go hungry... definitely not on cold weather... No wonder, people put on weight when they come to UK.. coz when it is cold, you got to eat to keep warm.. Hehe.. no fear.. I already have a remedy to keep warm during winter... hehehhe.. that is for me to know and for you to find out from me.. *wink* so naughty me!..

Ah-Tis-Choo...

*blowing nose*... oh dear me.. Caught the "autumn" cold or "british" cold as you may choose to call it.. and it is rather annoying to be in such a state, ya.. but what to do? Am tryin to make myself comfortable as much as possible.. hehehe.. I am like this now.. got the image from the net.. hehe.. but getting better today.. Yesterday was rather bad, actually.. my nosey was super block!.. Managed to get me-self some medication from the local pharmacy and think it is working.. so, today, am a good girl, staying home to get maximum rest and drink lots of water!.. hehehe.. Oh yes.. so happy to be able to get some sweet potatoes and cook some soup!.. hehe.. love that very much...

This could be it!...

Hehehe.. think I could have found the church which I wanna stay on.. I am getting there now, i hope and pray.. Tonight, went for a "Way-in" course at St John, Harborne.. and the very words spoken by the vicar just somehow had the connections that I was praying for.. Hmm.. and I could really sense the passion that the vicar has for the church, the congregation and the community.... and He spoke about the church coming alive.. the breathe of God into the church.. and I thought that is so vital.. talking about the touching of the hearts of the people.. alot of times, truths stay up in the head and never really get to go down to the heart.. which essentially required so because that is where transformations take place..

Just like what was shared during last night meeting at Christian Union, the heart of the matter is the matter of the heart.. Interestingly how these come together so timely..

And, just a few seconds ago, I was reading this daily devotion from the Vine which I thought was great to cut and paste here as encouragement to all.. coz it has spoken to me rather timely and it is a wonderful assurance and reminder for me at this hour..

One Day At A Time
Don't get worked up about… tomorrow. Matthew 6:34 TM

Max Lucado says, "Worry is to joy what a vacuum cleaner is to dirt; you might as well attach your heart to a happiness-sucker and flip the switch." Jesus said, "Don't get worked up about… tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes." When it looks like things are falling apart, Paul reminds us, "Every detail in our lives… is worked into something good" (Romans 8:28 TM). When it seems like the world's gone mad, don't forget God "existed before anything else,… and He holds all creation together" (Colossians 1:17 NLT). When worry whispers, "God doesn't know what you need," remember God promised to "take care of everything you need" (Philp 4:19 TM).

Jesus taught us to pray, "Give us this day our daily bread." You won't get the wisdom or resources to handle tomorrow's problems till you need them. When we "go confidently to the throne… [we'll] find kindness, which will help us at the right time" (Hebrews 4:16 GWT).

Over a century ago Charles Spurgeon said: "Enough for today is all we can enjoy. We cannot eat, drink, or wear more than today's supply of food and clothing. The surplus gives us the care of storing it and the anxiety that someone might steal it. One staff aids a traveler; a bunch of staves is a heavy burden. Enough is as good as a feast, and more than gluttony can enjoy. Enough is all we should expect; a craving for more is ungratefulness. When our Father doesn't give you more, be content with your daily allowance."

****

Tee-doo-loo... I am feeling happy today.. :D There is a progress of things... and it is great to see it coming to fruition.. much hope.. been praying and asking Him to direct me.. well, more updates coming up!.. hopefully and by the Grace of God.. one day at a time as how the devotion said it well.. *wink*...

10th Month into Year 2008

Woozier! I remembered just around end July, I scribbled about reaching the month of August and blah blah.. and now, it is October! and before long, winter would be here and then 2009.. Am I speed tracking the time forward? No.. just trying to grasp some little understanding today. Hmm.. somehow, possibly, today, am abit little sentimental.. feeling a little "dizzy".. as how my Shanghai friend puts it.. hehehe..

Anyway, was reminded of Ecclesiastes somehow.. talking about life.. is there meaning? Hmm.. there is!.. and King Solomon ended Ecclesiastes with these two verses which I thought there is so much to it!.. that goes like this..

"Now all has been heard here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." (Eccl 12:13-14)

With God, there is meaning in life.. and yet so many do not know who He is.. Hmm.... Last night at the Christian Union of the Uni, the pastor spoke something.. and something stirred in my heart even as I heard the discussion among the young people.. There is this constant nagging.. Hmm.. or is it called "nagging"? I do not really know except to look to Him and ask Him what are all these? Hmm... where to go? what to do? how to say? so many questions..

And even today, as I woke up.. with the strong wind blowing outside my window.. what is it that has surfaced? Am I discovering something greater than life? Or Is there something the Lord wants me to catch and run with it? Hmm.. some things I still do not understand and actually wonder will I ever understand them.. Well, in Ecclesiastes 3, so much has been written about.. a time for everything, a season for every activity... Something to simmer about.. don't simmer too long though.. hehehe..

Have a great October month ahead!.. Have an Outstanding October!... I pray that mine will be so! I also pray that it is so for everyone too!.. Make the best out of it! *wink*

With Experiences....

it comes with more compassion.. understanding.. empathy...

Is that true? Hmm.. from my own personal experiences, this is very true.. especially, with experiences that turn one upside down and downside up; shaken a little left and right, right and left; every bits of every thing! But of course, that is with one condition that is the willingness and openness to learn from every bit of experiences of life.. whether it is wrong or right, it doesn't really matter.. I love this phrase that I once heard..

"Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% of how you respond to it"

I thought that was so true.. Lets ponder... I am pondering!.. *wink*

Ol' English Weather..

Heheh.. now, I can understand why people in England talk about the weather so much.. coz it is so unpredictable!.. Just a while ago, I went out to the Uni Library and I wore my open sandals, hehee.. wow.. it is getting colder as the days go by.. serious.. I could feel it abit colder than yesterday.. Hmm.. that is English weather for you!..

Well, I used my pink bag with wheels to borrow some books just now.. hehehe.. very handy.. as I don't need to be burdened with the weight of books.. Gosh.. all finance books are so very da heavy!.. hehehe.. So funny though that I was wheeling the pink bag everywhere in the Campus.. hehehe.. with my open sandals.. Uniquely different!.. well, no one is doing it!..

And you know what, I am feeling hungry way too fast!.. oh.. wait a minute, of course I am hungry, I didn't have a proper lunch today.. hehehhe.. so doink!.. but honestly, the weather does make one hungry faster.. Hmmm.. lets see if I would put on weight or not.. Actually, even if I did, I wouldn't know coz I don't have a weighing scale to weigh myself.. unless it is really drastic kind of increase which I am not looking forward to.. hehehe.. So, lets hope it would not be so... Wouldn't want to turn into potato face!.. *smiling cheekily*

Abit dibit bored for bein in the room whole day...

hehe.. so came up with this idea of taking photos of my room's current state of condition.. it is getting messie.. hehehe.. well, mainly focusing on the study table, the washing basin area and the noticeboard (love this! I decorated it at 430am on one of the mornings..) It shows that someone who is full of life is living here!.. hehehe.. well, that is what I am aiming to do.. to lead a full life as much as possible..

Study table.. hehehe..

this is the washing basin area.. and notice the pink bag with wheels? my lifesaver, a little.. coz I don't need to carry heavy groceries but can use this to wheel them back.. yippee.. very vital!..

Yes!.. this is my favorite piece of art.. haha.. an amateur though.. hehehe.. but kinda fun! just pin here and there and voila.. a piece of masterpiece! hehe..

Potato shot!.. hehehe..

Finally, able to remember to snap a shot of a hot baked potato! hehehe.. it was yummy, with cottage cheese and cream... slurpp...

Of course, there are some other photos that I snapped along the way which is in the following..

• Birmingham Chinatown.. mainly..
