Friday, November 23, 2007 what a timely reminder of His love and faithfulness; one that goes beyond comprehension and i'm thankful that He hasn't given up on me all these while. i'm thankful for the various times that God has taught and allowed me to view things from a different perspective and as that happened, my heart was filled with a different emotion as what i would usually feel as the year draws to an end, it's always a time for reflection, a time to set directions for the coming year and a time to be thankful i pray that i'll hear God even more clearly as i go about making certain decisions, and that i'll obey out of my love for Him. //posted by ivy @ 14:51//
Monday, November 19, 2007 the day games went fine but i think the fun-nite's games were even better in anyway, i'm so glad that it's over and i definitely had fun with the girls although i wasn't with them for half the camp or maybe even more. enjoyed working with violet and all the helpers really made such a big difference in our games preparation and the execution lack of sleep. and i've got class tmr. wonderful. =( //posted by ivy @ 22:27//
Thursday, November 15, 2007 somehow, it's really different from the past when i've led youth camp hmm.. anyway, two more days to the camp and quite a bit of admin for the games portion.. will somehow, get it done by end of today heading for class soon, my third class for the week a bit drained, largely due to the grading that is yet to be done and this particular class isn't one which is easy to manage //posted by ivy @ 08:21//

Monday, November 12, 2007 as with all events, it was a day of changes and ensuring that everyone was kept on alert, doing what we can till the end of the day baby came down after the ceremony and i was definitely delighted to see him who wouldn't when your loved ones come down to support the event that you're a part of? =) not only did he has to wait patiently for me to end everything, he has to entertain my khakis at work who wanted to meet him and to top it off, he helped us with the clearing of the logistics at the end too went for a short dinner after that and caught a show at night, just needed something to clear my mind after such a stressful day when i reached office this morning, the first 6 people i came into contact with were all involved in the event yesterday and on our faces wrote one common word - exhausted. we survived through the day of facilitation though - it was a simple problem, thankfully! headed for a short dinner with lena, jane and jacq at causeway point; and that brought back what jane told my dear bf yesterday at the event about me shrieking to the group of them everytime im meeting him for dinner yep.. that's what buddies do to you - they reveal the most embarrassing things you do! =.= //posted by ivy @ 21:51//
Saturday, November 10, 2007 have not quite read through my admin plans for tmr but i do know i'm mainly involved with student registrations and drawing of lots in the morning, then helping with the performances thingy at noon, and finally, ushering of guests etc at the official ceremony it's gonna be a long day a long week ahead actually - classes on mon, tues and thurs stand-by duty on fri then off to camp for 3 days till mon, and back to class again the following day i'm back oh man, my grading! gosh.. what a mad rush it's going to be. ---------- back-track. cell on friday was good - yep, the sharing was really hard to swallow and at times, i found it so hard to believe yet, it was one session i certainly didn't regret going for //posted by ivy @ 22:58//
Wednesday, November 07, 2007 i've heard so much about the book of esther but believe it or not, i've never really spent time on it esther was placed in a safe environment to enjoy the lavish lifestyle that she was entitled to but when her fellow friends/people were in danger, she chose to risk her life to see the king but firstly, requested for them to pray and fast for three days - in stressful situations, do i still wait patiently for God's timing and direction? - how often do we ernestly pray and fast to seek God to hear from Him? after reading the entire book, the one strong point which hits is that, God has perfect timing! to us, we may feel that God hasn't spoken or done anything at the most crucial moment but that is because, we're acting on our own wisdom and in our own timing sometimes, it's hard because we don't see God, we don't feel God and we don't hear God but i've learnt to acknowledge God's hand in all situations "And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him." Romans 8:28 //posted by ivy @ 23:37//

Thursday, November 01, 2007 v.1 I see the King of Glory coming on the clouds with fire the whole earth shakes the whole earth shakes, yea... v.2 I see His love and mercy washing over all our sin the people sing the people sing chorus. Hosanna Hosanna Hosanna in the highest Hosanna Hosanna Hosanna in the highest v.3 I see a generation rising up to take their place with selfless faith with selfless faith v.4 I see a near revival stirring as we pray and seek we're on our knees we're on our knees bridge. heal my heart and make it clean open up my eyes to the things unseen show me how to love like You have loved me break my heart for what breaks Yours everything I am for Your Kingdom's cause as I walk from earth into eternity ------ a song which speaks to me when i was feeling down in the afternoon a song which speaks so deeply into my heart that i paused in the midst of my work and pressed "repeat" on my player "break my heart for what breaks Yours, everything i'm for Your Kingdom's cause.." it made me stopped at what i was doing, what i was thinking and what i was feeling i realised i've been dwelling too much into how I feel, what I think, what I do.. so much "I"s.. but ultimately, it doesn't really matter at all. what matters is.. not about me, but about Him. i want to be the generation that rises up with faith; i want to pray and seek till i see a revival; i want to dedicate everything i am and have to please the one whom i love, so very much! //posted by ivy @ 00:03// |
