he fought the good fight of faith..
xiaoting is so encouraged. by his life.
last time pastor toked about living a life of significance -- n leaving a legacy behind.
i saw it in him. he did it. he ran his race. although it was short, but it was a good race ran.
he fought till the end.

hey frens,
let us not stay where we r. there r greater more impt things for us to do out there. the kingdon of God is out there. let us not lose our focus, being bored with our daily lives, today, get up on ur feet! live a life worth living! noe wad u want in life.. dun merely exist, live!

he touched my life, my heart. when i fall, i will remember my fren who fell n got up again.
this is his favourite psalm.
Ps 27

A Psalm of David.
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?
When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell.
Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war should rise against me, In this I will be confident.
One thing I have desired of the Lord, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord, And to inquire in His temple.
For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.
And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
When You said, "Seek My face," My heart said to You, "Your face, Lord, I will seek."
Do not hide Your face from me; Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not leave me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation.
When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the Lord will take care of me.
Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.
Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries; For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence.
I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.
Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!

dunno really noe wad to say. for those who r visiting this webby, it is still under construction. feeling really happy now.

Jesus is for everyone. I din realise that telling u so much yet u still thot that there will be pple who is not in the plan to noe God. That is not true! u may not become a missionary, a preacher, but yet u can be a Christian in any area of this world influencing ur part of the world for Jesus! who says u cant give ur life over to God? n who says u cant achieve a lot for Him? God's plans is not for you to know Him thru me, but for u to know Him thru yourself. geeZ~

food for thought

The Power of Holding Hands
By Rabbi Harold Kushner

I was sitting on a beach one summer day, watching two
children, a boy and a girl, playing in the sand. They were
hard at work building an elaborate sandcastle by the
water's edge, with gates and towers and moats and internal
passages. Just when they had nearly finished their
project, a big wave came along and knocked it down,
reducing it to a heap of wet sand. I expected the children
to burst into tears, devastated by what had happened to all
their hard work. But they surprised me. Instead, they ran
up the shore away from the water, laughing and holding
hands, and sat down to build another castle. I realized
that they had taught me an important lesson. All the
things in our lives, all the complicated structures we
spend so much time and energy creating, are built on sand.
Only our relationships to other people endure. Sooner or
later, the wave will come along and knock down what we have
worked so hard to build up. When that happens, only the
person who has somebody's hand to hold will be able to
laugh.


Another quote:
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

on another note, i did pretty well for LEP. the best for all these years. ;) God is good.

update again

hey i m back again. hee. yesteday had a great day at church without walls seminar. haha. it was really good; hey! reaching out is not so difficult after all! geeZ! there is no need for fear of rejection yah.. even if u have fear, be courageous! Courage is moving on in spite of ur fear.

Yesterday listened to this really good speaker by the name of Dr Ng PAk Tee. He was a pretty amazing guy considering that his speech moved me to tears. Aint that amazing? U noe something, after that, i felt that though i will not consider myself patriotic, i consider myself loyal to hwa chong. yuPPpp! really inspired by him that today i absorbed all my carnival tickets! haha. dun worry.. i will sell them all.

i just came to realise that i m 7 weeks away from my prelims.. counting down pple. buck up! For some reason, i m still in holiday mood. Geez! Xiaoting u got to study study study!

there was something that i wanted to post but could not remember what it is. haha. nvm lah. i will be back again. ;)

The king asked him about katsumoto.

I was inspired by mengru about wad she said, y not talk about God in 80% of ur conversations instead of talking about everything else except Him?

Let me make my sch my mission field.

Something on my mind.. Was i too harsh with him or not? GeeZ.

one more thing, Sis rina emailed me and she told me about being excellent in the things that i do. cos i handed in my stuff late and she told me we really need to have the spirit of excellence. to tell u the truth, that convicted me big time.
