night before graduation

From choosing a dress to getting matching accessories-which is really just a necklace, asking people to come, getting my eyebrows trimmed and nails painted.. all the hurry and flurry of this "hiao":p lady has finally settled down, ready for a surprisingly big day for her.

No I'm not getting married. It's just that I'm graduating from new staff training. I never expected such a big occasion for this. Wow, imagine my whole cell gp turning up! And some supporters and students... aiyo I better not trip and fall over my heels haa

But you know the big thing about this big event is not me, not the nine of us graduating (by the way we got a cool name for ourselves -the J-walkers-) it's about Jesus, for Jesus, and to Jesus!

While I hope I'd look ok tmr (ok..i admit wo shi ai mei de ;p) what I really desire is that God will be glorified and that people who come will be excited by what He is doing in our lives and what He will do in each person seated in the auditorium!

Before that, I've to attend my cousin's ROM. It'll be a tight day tmr but I believe a fruitful day as I choose to do the Jesus walking:)

Mongolia

It's been a week plus since I returned from Mongolia. I've never expected to go there, even for a mission trip..well God's ways are higher and better I believe! One of the first things I had to adjust to was the colder weather. It was dry- my lips were cracking and my hands and feet were getting scaly.. I had to put on lots of mosturizing cream. Before long I was marveling at the buildings and roads that I did not expect to see in Mongolia. They were Russian style, built when they controlled the country many years ago. I was surprised to hear that all their universities were near one another, lined up along what was the University Street. Coolz.. The people were strange and interesting to me. They spoke in such a queer language that it sounded like Japanese, Malay and Cantonese simultaneously! Hard as we tried, we never really suceeded in speaking it. Yet it did not stop us from sharing the gospel to 90 Mongolian students, out of which 38 received Christ! The hea

in remembrance of my dear bro-Christopher

When I first saw Christopher 2 years ago, he was staring at a computer in GCTC. That was before I joined Campus Cruasde as a STINTer. He was one of those who egged me on to join staff. And he was really very happy when I finally did. He told me that when he first saw me, he got the feeling I would join staff. "Nothing happens for no reason." He said, and I laughed. I was glad that we were batch mates on STINT. In time, I got to know that he was attached to Winnie, a fellow staff. He shared with me while on the bus one day how he got to know her and became boy-girl friends. Though I never felt Christopher was a romantic guy,he was definitely very serious about romance. "I chose to love Winnie, love is a choice." Christopher has always been someone I could talk to on a heart level. His sincere and pure heart meant I could share freely with him. He was almost always cheerful in every circumstance. It must be joy from the Lord. Last year, Christopher was diag

'Hesed' way of life

After Women's Conference, I ran a fever and a Gen 12II meeting at the same time. Thank God the fever is gone now and the meeting was fruitful! I learnt many precious lessons from the lives of close to 200 women at the conference. We heard from many inspiring women-Judy Douglas, Andrea Buczynski, and Dr Kim who expounded on the book of Ruth-another woman whom I had learnt much from. In the bible, Ruth was a Moabite whom clung on to her mother-in-law Naomi. She believed in and served Yah Weh. She lived a life of 'Hesed'- Loving Kindness- and one aspect of it is living life beyond and above what is expected. It inspires me to know that I can live life "surpassingly." One area that comes to mind in living "surpassingly" is that of missions. I'm going to Laos this March, along with 6 other young and fun-loving Poly students and 3 other adults. As time nears, and support raising gets tougher, my heart gets more excited but also more fearful. Will
