inspiration....
i didn't really cry. some people told me they cried bucket loads ( maybe exaggerating a bit) but it just showed me how frailed humanity is and yet how resilient we can be in the midst of sickness and pain. and in the midst of darkness light can shined so brightly from the person whose life has been shattered. and i look at myself, and feel that i want to be a better person because of that. with my functioning body and the many blessings i have... many times i have chose to selfishly pleased myself.... whereas someone who has her health taken away from her, the life she could have had the brigth future that she would have lived taken away from her.... she chose to be an inspiration, she chose not to give up... she chose to live her best. i feel like i wanna lived my best too.
on the lighter side.... what kids think of angels...
Henry, 8 "Angels don't eat, but they drink milk from Holy Cows!!!."
Vicki, 8 "What I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in
love, they shoot arrows at them."
i thought these were really funny....
happy sunday people~!
to hsu en.... happy birthday~!

Ezekiel 36:26
26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.
i wonder how many times do i need a new hear? i think more like everyday than just a once off thing. sometimes it just seems like nothing is right with my heart. so i don't even know where to start cleaning up. so i ignore watever is wrong.... it's all vague and messed up anyway.... other days, i wake up... such clarity.... i know very well what is right and wrong.... the world seems prefectly black and white... no hard decisions.... all pretty straight forward, sometimes i really wished the world isn't usch a complicated place.... can we all be programmed to wanna make the right decisions? and can it be that there are multiples right answers and multiple wrong answers? blergghhhhh.... so how would we know we have entirely made the correct decision for ourselves and others? or should we just blunder around in life and somehow hope that our judgement is sound enough to not screw up badly....
God,help!!! what happens when i don't know what exacly to do and God seems totally silent? WAIT? till when?
this is what i think....do i try to make the most sound n logical decision based on facts, circumstances and conscience? seems simple enough. but actually think it x work that well. 1st life is illiogical. if i think bout it, if i totally believe in the supernatural God which is unexplained by science, how can what i believe in be logical? here comes FAITH..... so should i just make the decisions by FAITH that God will support me and go with me? even though it may be the most illogical way to go at that moment....
i have made tons of decisions based on something as stupid as human wisdom.... and some of them turned up alright and some screwed up..... and i have made decisions based on God's wisdom, His Word and how He has guide me.... it hasn't bunked up real bad as far as i can remember although can be pretty hard.... i think His way is probably the best way.... jus have to figure which way is He leading me too....

good news is .... i can wear my new boots to church tomorrow.... haha, it's full blast autumn now, so it's cold enough, it's jus stupid to wear boots in summer altho some ppl do, when i can wear sandals n flip flops... i wear my open toe stuff to hospital too. nobody cares, some docs do it too.... hehe, jus try not to meet any mean docs or nurses or wear them to OT... dat would be disastrous altho i have done that as well jus wear those funny shoe cover thing over so it's not noticeable, after all it's jus to watch an endoscope.
man, do i sounds like a total bimbo... i have to admit, i m a total shoe addict, i love buying shoes.... more shoe n bag person than clothes....

A group of students was asked to list what they thought were
the present Seven Wonders of the World. Though there was
some disagreement, the following got the most votes:
1. Egypt's Great Pyramids
2. Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter's Basilica
7. China's Great Wall
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one quiet
student hadn't turned in her paper yet, so she asked the girl if
she was having trouble with her list.
The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my
mind because there were so many." The teacher said, "Well,
tell us what you have, and maybe we can help."
The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the Seven Wonders of
the World are:
1. to See
2. to Taste
3. to Touch
4. to Hear
She hesitated a little, and then added,
5. to Feel
6. to Laugh
7. and to Love
The room was so full of silence you could have heard a pin
drop. Those things we overlook as simple and "ordinary" are
truly wondrous. This is a gentle reminder that the most
precious things in life cannot be bought. God gave them to us.
Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect, it just means
you've decided to see beyond the imperfections.
totall agree.... sometimes i do take all these things for granted and whine bout the smallest things.... and to think the 7 simplest things are the 7 wonders of the world especially if you don't have them....
God, help me appreciate what You have given me... and complain less bout things i don't have.... *smiles*

was thinking. how come i am not so half enthusiastic bout the things of God compared to like.... getting a FREE gift that i don need? just a thought.... jus sat there for a while n prayed.... bit unhappy with myself cos of that.... ya, sure i m human, maybe tad bit materialistic, i reckon it's a female thing to like sales and free things n stuff well i dun really need but jus feel like having.... for the heck of it, well, those who know me well, i m a total hoarder, can u believe i had stuff from primary school up till last year. and dat's cos my papa chucked most of them out cos he was renovating the house. sigh... and i was lamenting for quite a while bout my stuff.... and well, on the other hand, i m kinda not too fuss ed bout expensive stuff i lose. like i lose like gold chains, white chain chains... expensive trinklets, money.... not that small sums either... and i jus sorta got over it and well, wasn't too sad bout it for too long, i lost my laptop.... well someone stole it...some would be depressed for a while.... i got over it, maybe in 3 days? wondering if i m crazy.... 1, i still think i m a bit materialistic cos i love shopping n nice stuff...altho i dun go for prada, gucci or anything like that.... 2, i think despite that i m not too fussed bout losing the stuff i already have.... sorta like.... i dun even know if you get what i mean.... like i like to have stuff, but i dun love them till i cant bear to part with them or throw a big fit if i lose stg big....
i really should be studying and not pondering on all these things... turned up my fav worship songs n jus worshipped for a while, felt somewhat better, hope God will shine a torch into some areas of my heart and come out with this really meticulous analysis of what's in there. sometimes i just cant figure myself out....maybe i don't really wanna know. ignorance = bliss.... knowledge = responsibility.... maybe the great reason is i m not ready to know too much... i might not like myself much after that....
STUDY TIME CHUA SU LING.....!!!!!!!!!

the good samaritan
why was this good samaritan such a important figure that he is now used as a figure of speech? pastor ashley unravel the parable in a way i never really thought about, very logical.... yet was as if how come i didn't think bout that at all... anyway, this is what i remember anyway....
Jesus was having a conversation with a teacher of the Law.... and the teacher asked Him, " Who is my neighbour?"
Jesus being Himself began telling him this story....
Luke 10: 25 - 37
25On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. "Teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"
26"What is written in the Law?" he replied. "How do you read it?"
27He answered: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'[c]; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[d]"
28"You have answered correctly," Jesus replied. "Do this and you will live."
29But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"
30In reply Jesus said: "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead. 31A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side. 32So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. 33But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. 34He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, took him to an inn and took care of him. 35The next day he took out two silver coins[e] and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.'
36"Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?"
37The expert in the law replied, "The one who had mercy on him."
Jesus told him, "Go and do likewise."
the teacher of the law being a Jew.... was waiting for Jesus to tell him that only Jews ( not only that, upstanding Jews) were his neighbours... it was the custom last time not to consort with people of deemed "unclean" or less than up to the jewish standards...
Pastor Ashley also explained... the priest.... if he touched an unclean person would have to be unclean for quite a few days and he wonn't be able to do his duties... he prob thought... i'd better not touch dat man, he might be dead... He knew the right thing to do but he chose not to do it... that's sad.... i might be in the same shoes one day and i certainly hope i would be the good samaritan rather than the people who passed the wounded man by....
what was great bout the good samaritan.... he came prepared to help... he had oil, bandages, wine.... he was prepared.... he knew that dat passway was dangerous and people get robbed and wounded.... and he came with the preparation to help.... he brought supplies and his donkey too... at 1st i thought it was a bit cheating, he had the heart to help the others didn't, that's wat gave him the advantage when it came to the choice of whether to help or not.... but then away.... people can still make the choice spot on.... 1 conclusion, make up my mind that i would help if the situation arise before anything happens.... come prepared....another thing..... he went the extra mile... he didn't just badanged the man up and said... okay, i have done my part... good day! take care... he brought the man to the inn on his donkey and paid the inn keeper to take care of the man... dat is... wow.... he really went all the way...
i need inspiration God... well this parable is it... but real life please God...
i m bored...
anyway, now i m gonna hop to the library near my place, not that near but well, at least i could borrow some books and take my mind of the whole boredom issue and lazy to study as heck but like pushing tons of bricks into my brain.... watever...random post. not sure if anyone understands what i m getting at.

Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven’s table land,
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where those abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till Heaven I’ve found,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”
