Choices

Bed....pillow....blanket....Presentation..Christian Fellowship....

Irene called me....Eve sorry not ready....out of Joy I said its ok...I rather go for CF...so self study I meet you on Monday for Mocks.

I'm late, oh my God....9am....1 hour left to brush my teeth, to take bath to dressed up to pack my stuff and run to the LRT station for CF.

You can tell how disorganise I am...yes another bad Saturday morning.

So before I step out I decided to give my mum a call to tell her that I'm going to school and update her bout my week. My dad was busy preparing stuff for his business.

Good good I tell to my self I have ancouraged my mum this morning. Rushing, better hurry up I'm very late...

On my way in the LRT, Novel called me to look for a place in Wangsa maju as she was very distracted and depressed at her current place. I gave her number to Ming Hui my college mate as I heard she was looking for a room mate and smssing the two of the them. So I became the middle person of their negotiations. It all happens on my journey to school and Novel decided to move in.

Good good I tell my self I had help another person to get a place to stay.

I reached Pasar seni at 10:50am...so I have another 10 minutes to rush...no I gotta get my coffee..so I decided to stop at Kiosk to get my Favourite Mocha..for a kick start... Still look bit sleepy and unenergize.

Bad things always happen and it always happened to me ;) I have no small change...So I say sorry ah...RM10...the cashier guy look at me and say sorry no change you have smaller note? I was definately irritated by the fact that I'm already late and he is making my life difficult. How I feel? I felt like telling him with my Malanglish " How come Open Business no money change ?"

Thank God I tell my self it was not his fault. Afterall I've been in that position that people tell straight to my face how they are not satisfied bout things. So I decided to appologize for giving him such a big note...but I really need that cofee kind of thing...so he ask Rm1 note for change is it ok? with a smile I said appreciate that if you don't mind.

The cashier finally have no choice to do my business and gave me the change and he appologize by saying " Sorry ye, jangan marah ye " I smile at him and say no problem I understand. It all happened in 5 minutes...

What I've learned? God grace. Yup his Grace, despite my human weakness he gave me a chance, at least a chance to repent, at least a chance to make a different in other people life. I left that shop feeling real good by not making his life difficult at least.

So then, I was left with 3 minutes or so to be there in CF. Thank God I make it on time. Today lesson was peserverance, as a Student, as a disciple and a child to our parents ( The unsung Heroes ). Yes I definately needed that.

2 Timothy 1 : 7
Hebrews 13: 6
Ephesian 3 :20

em...I thought to myself no bad...not bad at all....

After CF as usuall we take our heavy lunch quote Dominic : One Tone Mee....without Wantan and Char Siew .....iiii....I dont like that at all.....and my 2nd cup of Kopi Thiam Cofee...from uncle Hor Kau....

2pm already...it is time to study study study.....so I went to the library as usuall ;) read my Tort assignment ......

6pm Library close shop, the librarian chase us out and he want to balik rumah...me? of course I would love to stay and finish up the unfinished. ha ha haha you don't trust me? Serious....I rather go lepak with buddy buddy "yum cha" I left for greater, more happening, Grace Cham's Birthday celebration.

Yes! see you at the Curve tonight...

Chau! Adios! God bless!

Hm...I definately misses class and everyone in College, Irene, Judy, Esther, CF, Foo Woei, Dominic and his lame joke and all I could remember the time in British council..hm....so fast I'm now on holiday...changing of life style and stuff...

Eve

Expresso

Oh ya, I has yet tell you guys why I start this blog. Like what I said earlier I was inspired by Wai Nyan's blogger and now he have his own paid blogger. He use it as a mission field and to advanced his interest in the Gospel.

I'm inspired by the fact that he describe himself as the unsung heroes, definately he is a man with big dreams for God. I respected him as my friend, my brother in Christ and a fellow student.

As for me, I'm using it as an expression page or whatever you may want to call it. I have limited vocab to use and to keep its originality I will not do any grammar or spelling check, so do bear with me on this :) I believe you'll will be able to understand right?

There are many things I wanted to share and to see my self growing in this year. I want to be a strong and courages woman for God before I reach heaven. Yes! Heaven is where I want to go. I want to see things in a broader view. As a brother shared with me Superman will go to a higher place when he is discourage and look at the world in a distance and it is not so bad afterall. So I guess looking things at a different angle is what make us different as disciple of God.

I'm not struggling now...I learn bout faith last year. God put me in much failure last year and it helps me to learn how to lean not on my own understanding and trust in him despite many discouragement in life. I'm stronger now......I know I have God I have you many of my buddy.

I understand why he say two are better than one when one falls the other will help him up. I understand the importance of friends and family that I have always neglected. Tomorrow is Grace birthday celebration, I will be there...I'll be there for you as you have been there for me in my toughest moment in my Christian life.

Thank God for all the blessing and friendship he provided. I can't thank him enough.

em... Yew Ching ask me to prepare a sharing next Friday for my Sis Bible talk. I has yet have anything in mind. Exam is around the corner... I pray that as I'm going trough this time God help me to learn something from it. I'll share, I'll boast about him, he is so good to me.

Not to bored you guys further, I shall end the night here. Do reflect with me tonight......

Love,
Eve

Cheers have a blessed night.

Have you wonder why?

Sometimes I do wonder...day dream I supposed.

Why when we know the right thing to do we don't do ?

Why do human tell lies more than being truthfull ?

Why woman talk more than man does ?

Why Love and hate can be placed together ?

Why my dad only watch National Geographic and all the boring stuff ?

Why my cat ran away after 2 months ?

Why we hate to go to work on Monday ? Quote : Garfield :- Monday Blues

As I'm wondering, and still wondering..I guess I love that feelings..... The beauty of day dreaming lies in those who wanted to make the world a better place.

Thought of a song......Michael Jackson " Heal the world" www.as.wvu.edu/engl01/users/faculty/tsloane/public_html/pdf/hosa.pdf

So...I promote day dream....you can use a better word :- " Reflections "

Today Matters

Its a brand new morning. Quote: Yesterday has passed, tommorow may never comes, but today is what matters ( Max Lucado )

Yup! it is a brand new day that God had giveth. Learning to remedy each day and hope it will be a better day for me and everyone else.

So the million dollar question is What is important today? I have so many things on hand, schedule is just packed up with preparation for exams and tonight group prayers night. Still thinking what is the best scripture to choose as a prayer praise to the Almighty for the 90 seconds.

Still wondering, still in deep thoughts......What is important is it to complete what I'm doing? Quote Wai Nyan : Once I have started I'll go all the way...

The answer is it determination? or was it something else...

Tomorow group study I'm presenting Character Evidence and Co-ownersip. I shall remember all things in my head today.

So let me organise my self. First Things First....

Always ask God for guidance
QT - Checked : 2 Thes 1 : 11
With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your Faith.

Thoughts : It was Faith.....Believing and trusting God today that I shall do away with all sorts of distraction and focus on things that I'm going to do.

Study : 12pm - 6pm ( Character Evidence )

Prayers Night : 7: 30 ( Grabbing the time to do all things, fellowshipping etc )

11pm: Shall reflect...on the faith issue.

Meanwhile, I guess I have to stop here, though I would love to continue to write. So Today matters and shall make it a fruitfull one.

Cheers! God Bless!

How to live couragesly

Most of us might be stuggling to live courageless in one way or another. As a law student courage is something I learned along the way. I remember my lecture use to tell us that " you don't want to be labelled as a crying lawyer dont you?". In my mind, it will be the headline of the newspaper....no I dont want that.

As much as it was what my mind dictate to me to live couragesly, it was still my struggle. I told God that I can't help it. It was natural...

We might struggle different things ie: relationship, friendship, family matters, work etc... and I remember the book written by Dave Evans Rogers and 13 other writters in his book " Power of Hope" quoted: Order your mind to release its frantic hold on the obsessive anxiety thought. In a word, let go and let God.

Let go and let God?

So what does courage means? Does it mean no crying? Full stop?

Joshua 1: 9
Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, neither be thou dismayed; for the Lord thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest.

Romas 8:31
If God be for us, who can be against us.

11 Timothy 1: 7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and of a sound mind

Psalm 34:4
I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and deliver me from all my fears.

Psalm 27:1
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

John 14:27
Peace I leave with you. My peace I give unto you; not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid

I shall keep a silent moment to ponder...Do ponder with me as well....

Cheers! God Bless!

So Glad we Met B4 Exam : 25 Feb 06

I'm totally excited and blessed by the date on 25th Feb 06.

Church is a place to Worship the Lord and makes a difference in someones life.

Love your God with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and Love your neighbour as your self.

In law term Neighbour : Those who board the Clapton Omni Bus :) The Neighbourhood principled : Those who are dirrectly affected by you.

In God's Term : Everyone in the world....

Who? I'll keep that as secret. Anyway the date was awesome, reason being I posted this message to thank him and to tell him I appreciate every single moment during the date.

It was an answer from God, "Ask as though you have received it" and he called me 2 weeks ahead to confirmed the date. Was really looking forward for a date before the hectic months of revisions and exam. Basically it was the happiest moment this month, as God allow it to happened, how? I'll share it next time. Save the best for last :)

He was late...ha ha haha...not very but I suppose I reached 1st ( so someone questioned his punctuality teasingly......) I have nothing to say but just smilling away...) He answered: I'll explain to Evelyn latter why he is late.

So we went for group date and Dinner behind time square...I cant figure out what is that place named..but it was pretty good place for date and fellowship.

We talk some deep stuff and some not so deep one. Overall, it was wonderful. Li Kean prepared this sticker for everyone..titled so Glad we Met and asked us to write an appreciation to our date...It was pretty encouraging though...so sweet of her....Aiyak I reveal my group date...:) purposely...I know you people want to kepoh...I have bribe LK not to tell you guys anything....ha ha hahaha haha ha....nah...dont worry keep it as an excitement...

We then went to Time square 10flr Food Ct to fellowship and I'm touched by the sharing bout his life, Christian life and dating life. I'm learning to be a listener I know I'm prone to talk more so I decided before the date for him to take the lead. I guess it takes lots of courage to be vulnarable and trust towards his date me :) while sharing some of his greatest struggles. So I thank God for that friendship.

We listen to MP3....before the battery exhausted ..

Before it ends...he gave me a bracelet with my name on it...and explain why he is late :) Very Touched...no bad attitudes... :) such a great encouragement.

All I have captured and learned from the date may it inspires others as well....

Today I received a mesg. from a brother via Yahoo messenger...He was an Angel of God...He taught me lots of deep stuff and giving me lots of advice bout dating and stuff. So I shall Thank God x 2 today for giving me such a wonderful friend.

So if you are reading this, I prayed all the best for you...We'll keep each other in prayers and this friendship glorify the Lord.

Thanks a million for a date before my exam...Oh ya I have plan to reverse date you after my exam...thought of your birthday.....Well keep it as an early encouragement.. and confirmation.

Love,
Eve
