Tuesday, April 27, 2010 rushing many things and especially the need to finish a paper for submission to perm secretary when i don't have many info i needed it wasn't easy and i wished i can just have all the info and help i need after all, papers to perm secretary cannot be delayed! i did it anyway, and left office on friday feeling really satisfied was very determined to cook dinner during the weekend and so i did i even cooked for my neighbours becos we wanted to watch "star awards 2010" together so i provided the dinner and they provided durians! last week was especially straining because i had appointments every night after work - it was mentally draining and i really just want to head home and enjoy the evening watching tv or just disturbing my husband while he works i made it through last week and the tireness was gone when i see my mentees (thank you girls!) and the YAMmies (thank you yammies!) this week isn't any better in preparation for church's 10th anniversary, we're putting up a dance this sun additional practice on top of what we already need to do for dance ministry's 1st anniversary two weeks later i managed to skip all the dance pracs last two weeks becos of mentoring and i really didn't want to change the dates but i had no choice this week so reluctantly, i told the girls we won't be meeting this week it was also good to give them the break and while i make my way to dance yesterday, i was glad for the fruitful practice but on top of that, i could meet other yammies as well looking back, i always whined that i have no time to meet other people becos evenings are really precious to me.. and though i can't meet my mentees, i could meet violet and angeline and even janice koh! so.. it was good! and i'll see them again on wed! =) i'm stealing time from work to type all these down because i'm ever so thankful to God for His strength, for the God-given abilities and wisdom I need at work, for the God-sent mentees who in turn encouraged me though i couldn't meet them this week, and for my dear husband who showers me with much love when i go home each night. thank you, God! //posted by ivy @ 11:02//
Monday, April 19, 2010 but we really need to rise up even as God brings people into our midst people see me as being confident, as being adequate, as being capable enough to lead and to make decisions but do you really see and know what goes through my mind at times? I feel inadequate as well, not knowing how to and if i could, i would gladly not want to be making decisions, planning things, taking the lead.. after all, sitting back and being taken care of is the greatest luxury, isn't it? i know i've been taken care of in the past, and there're still people taking care of me in their own ways now - i've received/still receiving and i've been blessed. and i know that as i choose to give and allow God to use me despite my personal feelings of inadequacy, He is going to teach me more things and the more i feel inadequate, the more i'll depend on Him. i'm praying that as young adults whom most of us have seen each other grow up and into our different phase of life, we will stand firm together and allow God to use us as He wishes I have decided to follow Jesus I have decided to follow Jesus I have decided to follow Jesus No turning back, no turning back //posted by ivy @ 10:55//
