IT IS FINISHED

THANK GOD.. I have completed my first function which my team leader asked me to do way before the deadline. It is really a blessing from God.

It is really interesting how God uses tough time to help us to grow and to prepare us for the future. When I was studying my last year in Ausralia, I was doing Web Applications and I was asking myself why do i have to study Web applications when I want to be a Consultant in the future. Didn't know why but I believed in God that He knows what is best for me.

Then my first IT job in NEC, I had to learn on SQL Server which i have to work really late nights to understand and work on it. Didn't understand why as well.

But since i started my new job, my position was to be an SAP developer but because there was an urgent task at hand we had to do Web Applications using SQL Server. All of a sudden, everything became so useful for me, things which i thought was useless, suddenly became so helpful. It was like God had prepared me to do this. Didn't know then but now I know.

Friends...it is truly an encouragement that even in tough times God still cares and sometimes He allows us to go through tough times to prepare us for something greater in the future.

I would like to take this opportunity as well to thank you all my family member and friends for being such great family, friends and support to me. You all are AWESOME!

I was sharing to someone as well that the honor of being a Christian is that we have access to God's blessings and His plans for us. When you realize God's great plans for you, you will be like.. Wow!!!! Jesus loves us so much that He died for you and me so that you and I can go to heaven. There is only ONE way to heaven and that is through Him.

Don't procrastinate in knowing God. He wants us to speak to you and He wants you to return to Him. He cares and sometimes it really hurts Him when we are too busy with our work that we hardly take the time to think about what He has done and accept Him. My friends, God is always there knocking at the door of your heart. Why don't you open your heart to Him today?

I believe He is knocking at the door of your heart, why wait any longer....? =)

Food for Thots

I was just going through this Bible verse and i find it really true. How much God cares for us and He has always been there for us.

Food for thoughts:
O LORD, You have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my every thought when far away.

You chart the path ahead of me
and tell me where to stop and rest.
Every moment You know where I am.
You know what I am going to say
even before I say it, LORD.

You both precede and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to know!

I can never escape from Your spirit!
I can never get away from Your presence!
If I go up to heaven, You are there;
if I go down to the place of the dead, You are there.

If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
even there Your hand will guide me,
and Your strength will support me.

I could ask the darkness to hide me
and the light around me to become night--
but even in darkness I cannot hide from You.
To You the night shines as bright as day.
Darkness and light are both alike to You.

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother's womb.
Thank You for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous--and how well I know it.

You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in Your book.
Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.

How precious are Your thoughts about me, O God!
They are innumerable!
I can't even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up in the morning, You are still with me!

Psalm 139 (New Living Translation Version)

Remember this: Jesus always and will always CARE.

Great Weekend

Sometimes people always say "How quick good times past...."

Last week I had a really good weekend.

[THURSDAY]
It all started on Thursday, I went for Grease with Ella, Sean and Kim. It is a musical drama adopted from a movie during the 50s. The musical drama was really good.









The singer I like most was the principal, it was so cool like the old saying goes to "hear the fat lady sings". I really admire the black people because their voies are so cool especially those who have a big belly. Man... they can REALLY sing. Whoa... I was really impresssed with their singing. Their singing was really nice.

I really enjoyed myself. After the show, I was planning to drive Kim and Ella home already but I was just too hungry so we went to Kei Tuck Sek and I had this really wonderful 'Shuit Yee' (if that is how you spell it)

[FRIDAY]
On Friday, had great fun over dinner and dessert with my beloved bro, Mr Edward; my childhood friend, Delicia Ng; my cousin, Esther Kwan; ex-trainee and friend, Kim. We went to Rakuzen. The price was killing me, I thought since Esther was still studying so I paid half for her but didn't know she ordered so much. I swallowed a BIG chunk of saliva and just paid. BUT the time spent together was worth it. Friendship can never be bought by money and it worths more than the jewels on earth.



[SATURDAY]
Had a good time of exercise with the same people over badminton. Boy... I really didn't expect Esther to have improved so much. She was really good. I was really impressed and i am so glad to see that she is growing in God and being a really great girl.

Had a 'keng chau' doubles match with Kim and me against Edward and Delicia. Both the matches was really exciting esp the second match when I was semi-punctured but trying my best to win the match when we were in a deuce where the team who is 2 points ahead wins the game. Thinking about it, it is really funny and I had lots of fun.

Later in the afternoon, all of us went to our respective caregroups and learn about dating and one thing that really kept to my head in the lesson was this:
"When we date, we must learn to accept and love the girl for who they are. To respect and honor them and to care for their interest even more than our own.

In the night, went for our 'Mother's Day' dinner at a suprising affordable place called 'Uptown' =P because my mm specifically wanted Naan and Tandoori and we figured maybe the best ones were there =). Had a great time spending with my family. during the dinner, my mum asked me to order Cendol for her. The cendol came and she asked me to ask the guy to add Gula Melaka, but they didn't have it so i asked them to just add sugar, not knowing that he put 4 spoons of sugar syrup in there and when my mum drank it, she screamed softly saying that it was SOOOO... SWEET. hahahaha it was so funny.. =D And HEY... I didn't do it on purpose, I just didn't know hahaha =D

[SUNDAY]
Had our Liew clan dinner and later had tea ceremony because during Euginie's wedding, Kau Foo wasn't there so it was a postponed tea ceremony. After that we had a birthday celebration for Aunt Cheese. Everyone chat and laughed while i was there as the entertainer for the night, playing the piano or them through that time. Really enjoyed myself just playing some songs while seeing how God has blessed my family.



Thank You GOD!!!

It was a really exciting weekend and I REALLY thank God for family members and close friends.
