The heart of time

I find it important to catch up on some reading even though life can be very hectic at times. I just completed a quick read thru my housemate's "One month to live" by Kerry & Chris Shook and a little start for "Approval addiction" by Joyce Meyer & "Walking in your shoes" by Robert A. Schuller. Decided to put on hold Nelson Mandela's autobiography until after my exams, but, my, what an interesting childhood he had in africa. =)

In "1 month to live", the authors talked about how would u live your life if you were being told by the doctor that uu only had 30 days left to live. It expounded on the 4 points of:

Live passionately (living each day as if it were your last)
Love completely (showing others love that transcends & transforms)
Learn humbly (growing thru your problems and pains)
Leave boldly (creating a legacy that will impact generation)


It really got me down to see the core of life and helped see what worldly things that easily entangle my thoughts and cripple my values when I don't get down on my knees.


"Guard the secret theater of your heart. See nothing there that you do not want to see happen in reality."
-Roy H. Williams


Lately while having lunch with my colleagues, we chatted about food and when I talked about the good chicken rice restaurant, having it with a couple of loved ones with the various dishes served, they pointed out to me that I am smiling from ear to ear and said that I am such a simple person to be satisfied. ha. happy only. Well, with a 160GB iPod in hand, fun colleagues, wonderful family, great roommate, nice cell group, caring ppl ard and my bro is visiting soon, how not to?

It's a sunday at about 6.20pm, the sun is setting and i am a day closer to my exams and tax submission deadline. But thank God that today happened and there's tomorrow to wake up to.

oh ya, my architect-to-be sis showed me an awesome YouTube video of a gifted man who has photographic memory n able to draw out the whole city of rome in panoramic view after taking a 45-min helicopter trip.





hmm...


heard this story abt a man who went to the market to buy some fruits and saw God actually manning one of the stalls. So he walked towards it and God asked him, "what do u want?" The man hesitate for a while, thought it over and said, "I want joy, peace and happiness for the rest of my life". God replied,

"Sorry, I don't sell fruits. I provide seeds."

This story really got to me when i first read it, hopefully i'll always sow the right seeds n reap the harvest.



Nothing to say, 3 quotes to end this. Don't wanna be a 'quotey' person by the way, but too nice to be left untyped, hee. let's learn to live fearlessly & unselfishly for God.

This is your life.
Are you who you want to be?

-Switchfoot


Security is a superstition.
It does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run
than outright exposure.
Life is either a daring adventure
or nothing.

-Helen Keller


Don't ask what the world needs,
Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it.
Because what the world needs
is people who have come alive.

-Howard Thurman

update ba

so far study progress is catching up well.. quite tired though cos have to study then at work have to OT also.

I just got myself a mp3 player that can store ALL my mp3s!! palm sized 160GB super big storage, haha, so happy, finally can have every songs in my fingertips and can bring everywhere, listen to all sort of things, gonna record in the audio bible soon, somemore can read the verses on screen at the same time, so happeeee.

lately i'm reading Psalms 100+, one of the chapters that has many many verses. talks abt finding delight and guidance in the command/word of God, delighting in it more than earthly riches. soon to find out the richness and nourishment of God's word. yum.

so far that's abt it, count down abt 6 weeks to the end of tax's peak period, exam n going into audit peak period. next 4 mth's gonna be very very challenging. super steep learning curve.

like what Pastor Wendy Ching shared last sunday, must always remember the faithfulness of God n his past wonderful works in our lives. So comforted when she assured me thru the ministering time that i'm right on track n God wants to use me for His glory n praise.

till then, i must be prepared to be looked down by people but still do my best n learn good n fast.

Carrie Underwood @ Ion Orchard

She’s gonna give a free open-air performance outside Ion this Friday. Saw the organizer already set up the seats everyday when I pass by.. hmm… I think I will still choose to go home instead of staying back to watch.

Satu Malaysia =)

15Malaysia

15Malaysia is a short film project. It consists of 15 short films made by 15 Malaysian filmmakers. These films not only deal with socio-political issues in Malaysia, they also feature some of the best-known faces in the country, including actors, musicians and top political leaders. You may think of them as funky little films made by 15 Malaysian voices for the people of Malaysia.....

to be

pondered over my life and see what do i really want to do..

observed the attitudes and life of others, christians, managers, financial controllers, company directors, managing directors, other account execs, auditors, corp secretarial staff, admin staffs, TnT ppl, pastoral staff, cell group leaders, housemates, friends, teenz ppl, australian dudes, indonesians, myanmar n china nationals..

ups and downs, perks and what-nots..

i think now i have a slightly better understanding on what to do n what to avoid in life, but it's still mainly about doing the very things God has put in your hands and doing his will. the world has a very subtle way of persuading your mindset. there's only 1 life to live, only 1.. not to waste but give it for eternity.

some of the best movie soundtracks.. =)
