by Your Word, I stand

"I'll give my best. The rest is up to God to open the right doors and shut those which are not for me. No matter what results I get, whether I can clear the year or not, I'll leave it to Him."

To my best friend when I'm on the verge of giving up my studies. In fact, I surrendered 3 weeks back. But is this giving up or letting go? 

Faith speaks.

I am more than a conqueror in Christ. [Romans 8:37] I like to believe that just as He promised, He shall open the right doors that no one can shut, and shut doors no one can open. [Isaiah 22:22] Year of 2013 is going to be the best year yet. The fruits will be ever so sweet,  leaves ever so green, for I am like a tree planted by the rivers of water, which yields its fruits in its season. Whatever I do, prospers! [Psalms 1:3]

And all these is only because I know I am Your beloved child, and Your favor surrounds me as with a shield. [Psalms 5:12]


Amen ♥

To Cologne

Somehow I like the feeling of being at the airport.. The waiting time before your flight. Be it departure or arrival. I like them both.

When I wait for my departure, I have the excitement of what this trip, this new destination would offer. Of course, part of it (if it's for work), I'd *worry* about unexpected and negative things that may happen.

And when I've arrived back in my country,  the thought "I'm home!" never fails to appear. I love Singapore!

And now it's time for Cologne!

And I'm flying SIA! 

And the seat beside me is empty! *I think, still is..*
And it's winter still!! ♥

Pom poms

With friends like that, O' granny can run.

No problemo.

Granny transformed

What seemed onerous to me appears to be completely different to this man on a different axis.

If I am walking on a positive bar, then this is a sunshine man skipping in his journey to his ending point.

I am not reluctant to have an additional topping on my pancake; I like to enjoy the right proportion. While having a full stomach seems satisfying, gorging a whole lot and stretching your belly causes serious indigestion.

In essence, I’d help my short-handed team, yes – and so I planned, I calculated my days, I looked for flights to Cologne, Germany for an impromptu departure a week from today. Yes, I’ve always love to travel, for business and leisure. But it also depends on the load you dump on me.

I paused my study commitments, I catered for this travel - That’s because I didn’t expect an ice-cream topping to come: a perfectly tight schedule. 100% utility. 

I get his point, yes and I must add, it’s not this man’s bads. In fact, his capabilities is what led him to where he is today. He pushes himself and break out of his box to grow and elevate his being. But I am not you. We have different views and elasticity. I guess I should be thankful that my boss believes in my ability to run on spikes with him and pulling me to run the race at his speed. I agree that climbing higher mountains gives you greater record achievements and better stamina for future climbs. When to start if not now?

Abba, be my strength and patience.

And let the run begin.
