recently my church had talks by mr. Tan Soo Inn. One of the topics was the mechanics of forgiveness. Well during the talk i was thinking to myself, "hey, i already know how to forgive as i have done it so many times in my life, and i wasn't angry with anyone anymore who wounded me. So nevermind lah this talk, i'll just sit down and listen".Well recently i was quite down because someone hurt me quite bad. And everytime i come to God at night, i feel something holding me back. The reason being i have not forgiven that person yet. So i looked trough the notes of mr. Soo Inn, pretty intersting and true.
In 1 point he said that forgiveness is not: a) forgetting b)reconciliation c)excusing d)letting go the demands of the law e)retaining old ways of relating
and the rest of the points goes as follow: 1)forgiveness begins with our coming to terms with our woundedness 2)it involved seeing the person who hurt us through Jesus' eyes 3)then we need to see ourselves as God sees us 4)Finally we need to release those who have hurt us from the prisons of our hearts 5)in doing so we find healing for ourselves =)
yes i have finally forgiven that person, when i think of what that someone has done to me, i'm not angry anymore ^^. See how God works? So people, don't take anything God puts u in lightly. It might not be useful at the present time, but in time to come it'll surely be.

Been spiritually and physically down these few days. i've made mistakes, really silly mistakes. I could only ask for forgiveness and try my best to pull myself up again. I know i should, but believe me, its not easy. Not at all. If you were in my shoes then you would understand why. Right now i just want to sit longer with my Father in Heaven, i want to really listen to Him, i want to hear every word He has to say, I'm dying for answers, i'm longing for strength to keep going on.
Yes i know God can change people when they fall, when they fail. haih..guess letting go and letting God should be the way. HELP!

Do you know that the fruit mangosteen is known as ‘garcinia mangostana’ in Latin? It is also known as ‘mangook’ in the Thai language, ‘san jook’ in Cantonese and ‘mangostina’ in Spanish. You may also be interested to know that it is the facourite fruit of the ‘orang utan’ and many of you!
The mangosteen tree takes more than ten years before it starts to fruit. I did not know this until recently when the tree I planted behind my house started to fruit. It was truly exciting when I peeped out through the shutters of my dining room and saw, for the first time, little berry-shaped fruits hiding between the leaves. I rushed and shouted with excitement that the tree had finally borne fruit. Painstakingly I counted and there were more than a hundred of them.
This reminded me of my childhood days when mangosteens were aplenty and grew almost everywhere. It was then that I learnt something many people do not know even today. On top of the fruit is a brown flower-shaped protrusion. The number of petals of this ‘flower’ indicate the number of pulps inside the fruit. If there are five petals, then the fruit has five pulps. We used to look for fruits with four and eight petals because these are rare.
Isn’t it interesting that what is outside the fruit indicates what is inside it? This often shows what we are like too. Our countenance displays quite clearly what we are inside.
When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, after receiving the two tablets of the ten commandments from God, his face was radiant because he had spoken with God. (Exodus 34:29) . He did not realize this but his presence with God had done something in his heart and mind that expressed itself on his face. There are some important lessons that we learn from this as we consider our place in the church.
The Christian who has truly communicated with God in prayer will show a difference in his or her countenance. There will be the expression of joy after being in the presence of the almighty and holy God. This is because only a few have this privilege of entering boldly into the presence of God. Jesus, through the shedding of His precious blood, has cleansed us, sanctified us and justified us to enter into the courts of God. When we come out of the courts of God, our minds should feel refreshed and our spirits as a family. The effectiveness of any worship meeting is seen in the conversation we engage in immediately after the meeting. What do we talk about? How do we look? Sometimes of course, it is possible that we rise after the worship meeting bleary-eyed because the speaker has more or less led us into a peaceful slumber. How many people wish they could sleep with their eyes open when the speaker is speaking so that no one would notice that they are in dreamland!
Our faces should also show our confidence in God. Moses had to cover his face with a cloth because it shone so brightly. But that did not deter him from telling the people what the Lord had commanded. The glow on his face indicated the confidence and the courage he had in his heart. He was able to face a rebellious nation and command them to obey God. After we have met with God, we should have the confidence to face all life’s challenges. We should be able to stand in the midst of turmoil and display peace and stability. People who see us should realize that God is with us and there is no need for us to look despondent or discouraged.
Our faces should also show that the cares of the world, the disappointments and failures in life do not affect our standing with God and our participation in the service of God. These ‘drawbacks’ are part and parcel of life. Sometimes we are disappointed with people. Sometimes leaders may not be what we expect them to be. Sometimes people we lead may fall out of line. A sullen face or a face that shows dramatic mood changes is an indication that we cannot trust God to fulfill His will in and through us. It is an indication that we doubt God’s ability to bring us out seemingly difficult situations. We must believe that with God, nothing is impossible. The vilest sinner can be made whole. The heaviest burden can be made light. The deepest and darkest valley of despair can open up in the light of God’s glory. So, why should we feel discouraged? Why should our faces show that there is no hope?
In extreme conditions, the Christian shows the rare gift of inward strength and peace. Are we like the mangosteens which have the four or eight petals? Are we that rare breed of people who have the power of God within and unconsciously, like Moses, display it? Whatever we have, our faces certainly show it
this happened a long long time ago..but still it was fun and exciting..after captainball one friday, we went for lunch at the ever-so-famous loh mee shop. After that, Mary-Ruth, Melanie, Alex, Alexis (alex punya sister so its alex sis which eventually became alexis), Wei Shern, me went around in melanie's car to alex's house and mary-ruth's house..
at alex and alexis house,
dog number 1 dog number 2 and alexis dog number 2 with alexis again blah
there was another dog which is black. by now u should notice i forgot all their names..well, next stop, mary-ruths!!
for some of you that saw my dog's puppies last time, they look exactly like these..no joke..seriously exactly..i miss them, especially the one which had a spot on its head =(..they were all outside mary-ruth's house..stray dog pups then there was a kitten..scary looking, i always prefer dogs more than cats. there was also a hamster which had just given birth to a few babies which i took the picture of but it was super blur deja-voo? yes i failed...
and then i passed =)..okay thats all for now. and oh yea, my emo results is..
You may not cry all the time, or insist on black nail polish, but you still aren't fooling anyone. Even if you try to keep your emo tendencies under control, your studded belt buckle is still showing, and we're pretty sure we saw you doodling black hearts the other day.
Go ahead and deny it all you want, but it's pretty obvious. You have a heart and a sensitive side, and you put them both to good use. Maybe you don't look on the bright side quite often enough, though. Try to embrace the good things in life a little more — you'll see that the glass is actually half full!
This song is a song that suits me very well now i think. By Nidji, hapus aku...
Kutuliskan kesedihan Semua tak bisa kau ungkapkan Dan kita kan bicara dengan hatiku
Buang semua puisi Antara kita berdua Kau bunuh dia sesuatu Yang kusebut itu cinta
Chorus: Yakinkan aku Tuhan Dia bukan milikku Biarkan waktu waktu Hapus aku
Sadarkan aku Tuhan Dia bukan milikku Biarkan waktu waktu Hapus aku
That day went to see Colbie at the Curve. She said something like this before singing realize, "This is a song when you have feelings for another person but that person doesn't seem to know how you feel". So, i'm dedicating this song to you. If you just realize...
Take time to realize, That your warmth is Crashing down on in. Take time to realize, That I am on your side Didn't I, Didn't I tell you.
But I can't spell it out for you, No it's never gonna be that simple No I cant spell it out for you
If you just realize what I just realized, Then we'd be perfect for each other and will never find another Just realized what I just realized we'd never have to wonder if we missed out on each other now.
Take time to realize Oh-oh I'm on your side didn't I, didn't I tell you. Take time to realize This all can pass you by Didn't I tell you
But I can't spell it out for you, no it's never gonna be that simple no I can't spell it out for you.
If you just realized what I just realized then we'd be perfect for each other then we'd never find another Just realized what I just realized we'd never have to wonder if we missed out on each other now.
It's not always the same no it's never the same if you don't feel it too. If you meet me half way If you would meet me half way. It could be the same for you.
If you just realize what I just realized then we'd be perfect for each other then we'd never find another Just realize what I just realized we'd never have to wonder Just realize what I just realized
If you just realize what I just realized
OoOoOOo
missed out on each other now missed out on each other now
