leave it all to God.

I had my 2nd paper today. It wasn't easy. = ( But, whatever results that may come my way, I shall accept it and I pray that God will give me a heart strong enough to accept it as well. Ugh.... My flu... Wrong timing... But, I did wat I could already. Hopefully, it will turn out all right la..
*fingers cross*

Anyway, today's Foo's b'day!! Hehehehe.. Blessed Birthday, Foo... = D

Oh oh, I wanted to share something that Jia Tsing shared last Sunday at CCC. = ] Something that we all know but the way Jia Tsing put it, it's eye-opening.. It is called...

The Fishtank Story...

And here it goes...

Once upon a time, in a land far far away, there lives a teacher...


Ok, I shall not crap crap. But, there was a teacher. She thought of ways to teach her class about God and how humans are destroying the earth. So, one day, she brought a fish tank to class and ask her students to make stuffs out of paper and put it in it.

Some of them made, trees. Some of them made, humans. Some of them made fishes and butterflies and all the things of the earth. After they finished making all those stuffs, she asked her students :
"Class, does the fish tank look good now?"

And they innocently replied :
"Yes, Teacher!!"

The teacher then, takes one of the paper humans and play play around with it. She took one of the paper humans and dipped it into water.


And that made the students cry out :

"Eh, teacher teacher... DUN!!!"

And the teacher puppet-ed the paper human and say :

"Why cannot? It's ok 1 wat? It's sooo hot here.. Dipping in the water awhile is ok wat?"

And after she dips the paper human into the water...... hehehe, u can do the maths rite? Paper? Water?

After that, the teacher takes another paper human and play play with it again. She puppet-ed it again and this time she say :

"The weather is sooooooo cold... Brrr.... Unbearable, I think I wanna go stand near the fire there to warm myself up la"


Then, the students replied :

"NOOOOoooooooo... Teacher, stop spoiling our hard work and arts... TT.TT"

The teacher replied, still puppet-ing the human paper :

"But I feel so cold, it's ok 1 la.."

The students replied again :

"But you will catch fire, dun stand too close laaaaaa"

"How would u know?" - the teacher replied..

Frustrated, one of the kids stood up and said :

"That's because, we made you that way and we know wat's best for you"

Very often in life, we would think that we know wat's best for us. But, do we really know? Often in life, we make mistakes. Do we still really know wat's best for us? Often in life, we regret the mistakes that we've made. Do we still really really know wat's best for us?

This story really hit me hard last Sunday when Jia Tsing shared and I felt the need to share with you as well. There are so many times in life which I have regretted and there were times as well when my over-confidence have brought me down to earth. Many times..

Anyway, I've learnt the hard way and I'm trying my best to go through it now.

If I say, 'I will forget my complaint,
I will change my expression, and smile,'
Job 9 : 27 = ]

Have I told anyone that I like honest smiles? = D Cause I really do like to see ppl smile. Especially when I *pat pat*. Hehehehe... Smile even more k?

Some notes from Uncle Dexter's sermon a few weeks back...

1. Why does it say God's love is wide?
It is wide enough to include EVERYBODY!

Good news is... God loves me... = D
Not so nice news is... He even loves my enemies... = (

2. How long? Why does it say God's love is long?
It is long enough to last forever & ever & ever & ever & ever...

In human relationships, like the gf bf and spouse materials,
It always starts with "bling here bling there, darling here darling there"
but it will end with baling here and baling there when they start fighting and start baling...

Make sure, u dun have these things after u're married at home.

Uncle Dexter sure is funny... Hehehe...

God's love is not based on conditions of our attitue but it is consistent. It is unearned and it is also undeserved.

3. How high? Romans 8:30
God's love is high enough to be EVERYWHERE!
There's no place that I could go where God's love is not there. We will never be separated from God's love. NEVER. His love is everywhere.

4. How deep? Psalm 40:11-13
God's love is deep enough to meet my needs.
His love is not shallow. No matter how deep our problems are, God's love is deeper still.

JUST TRUST HIM!!

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this:
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8

p/s : thank you, for giving me medicines... = D u're the best!!
