Truth

31 May, 2007 at 12:10 am (Random)

Believe it or not, the world has approximately 2 trillion barrels of oil reserve. We finished the 1st trillion in the recent years. Imagine a normal distribution curve, we are now at the peak of the petroleum production or slightly after the peak, meaning the production oil is going to face downfall. Having said this, with the world’s increasing demand of energy for the increase of technology and also buildings, as well as the way we are using energy right now which we think its normal, I’m afraid to say that oil will deplete in less than 50 years. We used up the first trillion barrels of oil in about 200-300 years. Big difference isn’t it. Companies in the business world have been covering up this truth by saying that we will have oil supply for at least another 150 years. The kind of graph curves and assumptions they used are not practical at all in the real life situation. So, thats the truth.

Believe it or not, its up to you.

Happiest Day Of My Life

26 May, 2007 at 3:22 am (19th Birthday 2007)

This is probably the best birthday ever that I had in my life. First of all I want to thank God for giving me the chance to come to this Earth and by His grace I am still alive to celebrate my 19-th birthday. Actually this birthday is also a significant one for me as it falls in the middle of the fasting and praying season. Maybe there is a gift that God wants to give to me. We’ll see.

So today (in fact yesterday) life group was just running like normal. I went there and everybody just acted like normal. UV members are good actors! They are the best. I actually forgotten that it was the 25th of May and 26th is already my birthday. I went there without expecting any cakes or celebrations and went through the life group session just like every other life group sessions. Right after the life group ended, while I was busy talking, suddenly the lights were switched off. Still blur, everybody started to sing happy birthday to me. I was totally touched and shocked that they actually remembered my birthday! Thank you so much guys. As we are fasting, we can’t be eating cakes or drinking soft drinks and they actually came out with a very creative idea on doing the “cake”. Made up of purely fruits. See the picture and you will know.

Alright, cut all the crap and here you go!

My birthday cake which made up of watermelon base and rock melon wordings along with trick candles.

Thanks guys, this is so super sweet. Though its the fasting season and we can’t eat cakes, still you guys came out with such creative ideas. Thanks so much! I love you guys! (Its really a fruit cake)

 

Same ‘cake’ with the leg of the ‘L’ bitten away by Sheena. =P

 

Me blowing the candle

 

The fire wont go off!

 

The fire still isn’t going off!

 

Now I know those are trick candles.

 

Finally, the fire was blown off with lots of my saliva over the ‘cake’.

 

These are my Life Group members who rock all the time. Love you guys! (Sung is so shy)

 

Again my happy Life Group led by Ernestine and CaCing

 

And this is supposed to be a candid. Look at Chris. =.=”

Traditional picture. No SMILING allowed. Like terrorist. Everyone looked to fierce on my birthday.

 

Receiving my medal of honor from Cacing (Alright, its Jia Ching)

 

Well, ‘cake’ eating with Ernestine.

 

Me and my Life Group leaders CaCing and Ernestine.

 

Sylvia, Sung, me, Chris and Christine. Chris, better don’t flirt around! If not Christine will poke you like that apple.

 

The naive look of CaCing. Ps. Mike, this is one of your leaders from ‘I Not Stupid’. So cute!

 

After coming back from Life Group, as I was eating dinner with Sung, Chris and Christine, the other bunch of Village friends came and surprise me again! Shu Ai, Joanne, Brennan, Derrick, Siow Hui and Anthony. This time I got an original Quicksilver hoody which looks so super cool. Honestly, this is the first Quicksilver product I’ve ever had in my life. And its original! I was so seriously touched and I’m really so thankful for all these people around me that makes my birthday so happy and unforgettable. You guys are really a blessing for me. Love you guys so much! I couldn’t ask for more.

(P/S: Pictures for the second celebration will be posted soon after I get the pictures from Sung. So please check back again for the pictures!)

My parents, who gave me so much and love me so much too wished me too and those words meant so much to me. My fat sister as well, still remembers my birthday. What a wonderful family I have. Thanks so much mom, dad and also sis for everything. Love you guys!

Of course not forgetting my sweetheart Shee Laine who gave so much effort in creating me that SMS and sent it to me right on 12.00 a.m. It is not just an ordinary SMS but a very special and sweet SMS full of sweetness and more sweetness. I nearly cried. I have never seen such sweet and touching SMS in my life ever. And dear, thanks for being there for me all the time especially on this very special day of mine. You never fail to make me smile. Never fail to make me feel so special and wanted in this life before. Never fail to pour out your love for me. Thank you so much. It is a blessing that you are placed in my life. You filled in perfectly the love shape void in my heart. I love you!

As I was growing up, I always thought that the number of friends that called to wish you and the gifts are the most important thing during a birthday. Today everybody including God Himself showed me that it is actually the people around me that loves me so much and all the efforts they spent in making my special day even more special that matters. Seeing all the things and efforts that you guys, Shee Laine and also God, also not forgetting my Malay friends – Mariah, Khai and Hazerq had done for me, I just feel so blissful and loved. To Mariah, Khai and Hazerq, your phone call means so much to me. Thanks for all your wishes and blessings. Everyone of you make my day special and also provide me with the ultimate happiness. This really touched my heart to the deepest. It is such a blessing for me to have you guys in my life.

I love all of you!

Another Round of Attack?

24 May, 2007 at 7:56 am (Life)

Here comes the devil! Giving me another round of attack. As I was taking off the posters this morning, the paint came out of the wall! Its about 1cm x 2cm! Arghh.. What is he trying to do? Try to rob me of my faith again? But God is good. I’m deflecting the attack with the shield of faith! I’ll just leave things to God’s hand and see how it goes. I’m preparing for every circumstances. God is good!

Wonderful

24 May, 2007 at 12:23 am (Life, Love)

How wonderful is God. I prayed, prayed and prayed and everything was lifted up from me! First, all my other house mates except for the 3rd one saw that I cleaned up the whole house by myself and felt very embarrassed. They immediately went and clean up the kitchen again as there were some stubborn stains and also the toilet (proves my cleaning was not good enough, but who cares). Things was just falling in place. I tried to call my girlfriend again knowing that she wouldn’t pick up. I just want to try. It came to my surprise that she actually picked up the phone! I was totally overwhelmed with gladness and happiness. We both said sorry and talk things out and continued with all the talking and talking and talking to compensate for the 2 days of misery. Anyway, the past is the past. There are more to come and we need to appreciate the present as well as the future. It seem that God sent a great wind from heaven and blow away all the clouds of thunders and storm from me.

I just want to encourage everyone that during this time of fasting and praying, prayer works mightily. God answers prayers super fast! Not to say that usually prayers don’t work or God is procrastinating but it is during the fasting and praying time our prayers are powerful. And the verse “seek first His kingdom and everything will be added to you” is proven! I prayed for God to reveal Himself to me and show me His kingdom and Himself to me. True enough, after this, things just get into place! No matter how hard it is to summit to God, we just have to do it no matter what. Though you are seeing a dead end in front of you, God will somehow provide you the way. I’m just so excited right now. Its another one and a half weeks more to go and I want to see what is ahead of me to be given by God!

Of course now everything is good and smooth sailing I cannot take God for granted. Remember even during times of distress and you feel like you are going through hell, keep holding onto God and keep praying. During this season of fasting and praying we are very prone to spiritual attacks. Only with the full armor of God (Eph 6) we can fight the devil and win this war. Never let the devil be happy with what you are doing. He hates us when we are glorifying God and when He knows that breakthroughs are going to happen in our life. He will try to take our faith away so that we will not receive the breakthrough. Never let him get things done his way. Well, speaking from experience at least. Lets fight!

Get pumped up for the remaining fasting and praying days! God is on our side.

I’m Losing…

23 May, 2007 at 3:57 pm (Life)

Unit inspection is tomorrow! In case you don’t know, this is the thing organized by The Village to inspect every house as part of maintenance. The living room was in a mess! Newspapers as old as 2 weeks ago lying everywhere, my 1st house mate’s beer bottles and cigarettes everywhere as well, 3rd house mate’s (worst among all. I have no idea how can he study medic) food all over the place. Those supposed to be refrigerated, expired. Stains were everywhere. He came out, microwaved his food, looked at me doing all the chores and went to back to the room. I just can’t take it anymore. I’m at the stake of losing everything. Myself, my studies and even my relationship because of my stupidity. Fear grasp my heart every day and night. No one to talk to heart-to-heart anymore. I just feel so lonely and empty. She is neither picking up my calls nor replying my messages. And I don’t think many of us experienced total loneliness and frustration before. The ‘E’ button on my key board is not functioning well. Why is everything coming up against me? I can hardly understand a thing in all my lectures. The feeling of breaking down everyday suck up to my spine and I have been skipping uni for the past 2 days because I just don’t want to see people. I don’t know how long more I can take this. I’m off to cleaning up the toilet now. Hopefully I will get better. It is another sucky thing if my toilet is not clean enough and I have to pay for the fine after the inspection.

I just needed to release. My blog is my best friend now.

A Prayer From My Heart

23 May, 2007 at 12:18 am (Life)

Father God in heaven

You know me the best

You are the one I can rely on

Everything I do and everything that happened in my life

I want to give You praise

You know what is the best for me

I’m letting go, because I know You will catch me

I have faith in You

Keep my heart, heal my hurts

Those I am having now and those to come

Your grace is sufficient for me

If I really have to let it go

Prepare my heart

Be with me

I know You will

I am surrendering everything into Your hands right now

And before I forget

Thanks for giving such great friend like Sung

I couldn’t ask for more

I love You Jesus

Amen.

From the one that needs You the most,

Yong Ling.

Sunday

13 May, 2007 at 10:00 pm (Life)

Early morning, woke up, thinking that this will be another ordinary Sunday where I will go to church. Lo and behold, God always surprises me in different way. Such creativity can only come from the creator of all things. The service in church today is just magnificent. The presence of God is so thick in the mist of the congregation. Once the worship starts I was so touched by God that I didn’t know that tears were actually flowing down my cheek. I just couldn’t stop. What I want to say that God is constantly looking after us. He knows when I need refreshing, rest and to let go everything…in front of Him. How marvelous is the feeling. It is beyond what words can describe. Within my heart is filled with gratefulness towards Jesus. He saved me, from everything.

“…His grace is sufficient for me… “

Now I understand.

I love You, Jesus.
