The Best Thing that ever happened to me

Meeting Jesus. Without you, I will still be down in the dumps. No where to go, directionless, hopeless and helpless. Because of you I can see the good things in this life in any circumstance. You provide me with everything I need and I am learning to trust You more and more everyday.
I just want to shout at the top of lungs in my little tatami mat room, "I LOVE YOU!"

Defying All Logic-Love

There are somethings that really puzzle the annoyance out of me. Especially when it comes to something that I should be in control of. Myself. Can we control what we like or even who we like?? Somethings just defy. Like why God loves us so much?? There's no good explanation for that huh. Ever wondered if God ever gets annoyed with Himself for loving us? Especially when most of time we upset him and make Him angry. Maybe I will never figure out why. But one thing for sure, it helped me understand how deep and illogical and CRAZY unbelievable God's love is. Maybe He put this in my heart to understand, what love is truly about. Not about how nice someone is or how loveable someone is. Anyways, because He loved me and showed me what love is about, I can love people in the right way now. I thought I loved people alot, but actually.. I didn't. Maybe I just loved them because they loved me. Because when something unpleasant happened.. I found myself hating. But, now. It doesn't really matter if people return my love. Because I am loved by Him. And there will be people He put in my life to remind me of how much He loves me. I don't have to be loved by everyone. But, most importantly, I need to love people. It's this unreasonable desire to share this goodness that God has given this illogically to me. His heart. If God isn't bothered about why he loves us. Then, I don't have to be this bothered about why I am loving the people who rejected me.

Living waters

I wonder who still visits this blog? *blows off virtual dust*
Still enjoying blogging over here, I guess only few will see this anyway.
As I dived into the depths of God's thick instructions for life, I wondered what IS living water?
And what does it mean to exchange my needs for this living water?
Well. Urm. Living water flows lor, unlike stagnant stale waters.
Exchanging pool of stagnant water for fresh flowing springs, good deal!

So what is living water? It means a new life for me. Looking beyond my past and what people have labeled me to be. It means hope, God's wonderful plan. Never ending boundless love, always refilled, refreshed. Never thirsting for love.

Stagnant Waters. Yucks. My old hurts, my old thoughts. My unmet needs. Mostly to do with acceptance and love. Unmet. And why is it so difficult to switch with such a good deal?
Because. I am too tied up in the lies I told myself. I have to pick them out one-by-one.

It's nice to be home.

I can't remember when was the last time I just rested at home on a weekend or holiday. This is nice. ^_^ New Year was spent at my dormkeeper's place, the rest of the new year holidays out shopping or in the lab. It's great to be home!!! And in less than 2 month's I'll be back in Singapore :D Looking forward to meeting people and yet, I know I will miss what's in Japan.

Genesis 2:
2-4 By the seventh day
God had finished his work.
On the seventh day
he rested from all his work.
God blessed the seventh day.
He made it a Holy Day
Because on that day he rested from his work,
all the creating God had done.

This is the story of how it all started,
of Heaven and Earth when they were created.
