A levels. Army. Catching up with JC and sec sch friends. its been quite a wonderful time.
ha. i dunno men .. but it's been such a long time. yet i feel its short. kinda weird to tink tat i am turning 20 already. seriously i dun particularly like that idea at all. i dunno y. :(
anyway..
I really treasure back the time back den. It's tough .. but i make many new friends that make me realise i'm not alone in this walk. and 2005 is really a year of many breakthroughs!
Most of my NYR (New year resolution) 2005 was fulfilled! :). For starters, i've made real true friends. I mean those with me for the past few years are of course still my great friends. It's about this loneliness in me. That have been stalking me and telling me i wasn't really meant for anyone. that no one appreciates me or likes me. it may sound kiddish or stupid but trust me ... this mentality destroys yr confidence and robs your joy everytime it comes. :) i'm really happy that i know for now that it has no hold on me. I'm free. free to establish greater relationships with my friends.
Secondly, I've lost pride in many areas which i always thought i could do it myself. I've learnt that no man's an island. We need relationships. We need God. Through humility, i've found another side of me that is really amazing. :) A side that has confidence in my personal ability .. yet it knows perfectly that it's purpose is not self-serving. Its to serve God and people that i care about. that makes me feel "at home". A warm kinda experience you can call it. I will always remind myself in this area .. that i should rely on God's strength .. his steady hand at all times.
Thirdly, i'm very happy when Xiu wen, Mom and some others tell me that i've grown. Grown in capacity .. in serving. I wished earlier this year to be a true Man of God. one that knows how to take care of my wife and family. i know i still got lots to learn but .. hey i'll do my best in this area. I would really like to thank my cg members .. especially the helpers and leaders for the encouragement you people give. :) Thank God He place future friends in my life. it's a treasure i will not let go ;)
Fourthly, in my spiritual breakthrough. If you study my appreciated raindrops column in the sidebar of my blog, you'll realise that there are some entries that i was very "on fire" to write. They are presented in a form of my own personal lessons. But the insights are just unbelievable.. It makes me testify constantly how God provides revelations to us to enrich and encourage us. It's relationship like this that really wows you. Apart from that, i've experienced Holy Laughter for the very first time this year. The joy of worship. the sacrifice of praise .. all of these famous quotes from the Pastor .. and bible.. i really got to feel the meaning behind those words..
The electricity that shoots out from my hands. all those encounters... :) it makes me feel so blessed to have such an amazing relationship with God...
Well as much as i can remember.. 2005 is over. I won't look back at it. Especially the mistakes i make. But i will remember and thank the Lord for the lovely time spent.
Like King Solomon says it best .. " The end of a thing is better than its beginning .. " (ecc 7:8)
I appreciate God for this marvelous year.
Goodbye 2005 :)
