"There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart....pursue those. "

A quote from Michael Nolan

"There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart....pursue those."

I was at a home furnishing store this morning and saw these lovely stuffs of which I was not sure if we are allowed to take photos of it. Haha. Nevertheless, I would like to share these photos.

Have a great Sunday everyone :)

Day 287: Love! Love! Love!

I think this is the best ring I've ever had which I only got for xxxx! Haha. Ako pa! It was so unique from the other rings and felt like God is sealing His love for me. Wearing this ring requires both my forefinger and middle finger and its a bit difficult to separate my 2 fingers because of LOVE. Galing! Its like what it says in Romans 8:38-39. Yay! (Sorry, if I'm petty or too much detailed or religious or call me whatever, but this ring spoke so much about God's love in the midst of what I am going through).

It was so timely that we watched a documentary film entitled the Furious Love of God during Life Group. Love is indeed the most poweful tool to touch the lives of other people. Unless I received and experienced the true, pure and selfless love of Christ, I can never share it to others. Awesome short film!

Day 273: Happy Birthday Cindy!

Happy Birthday Cindy!

Day 253: "Help me to be gentle.."

Today's lesson in Kids Church is about GENTLENESS. I felt like God was speaking to me on this area in dealing with myself and with other people. There are times I tend to be impatient and loose my self-control. I really need God's grace to work this out in me.

We had lunch and lifegroup at Pizza Hut. It was a deep topic actually. Kat who just came from the Philippines joined our group and glad that she enjoyed it and met new friends as well.

Somebody who went to Vietnam gave us a keychain. Yay!

Day 239: White Sunday.

I spotted these white long sleeve top and pants which I've been looking for the past weeks. I like this white top that can be matched to skirt, jeans or shorts. I got a $1 discount because of the little stains which hopefully be removed after washing. I also bought white pants which I will use in the office as an alternative to my black pants. Yey! It feels good when you are able to buy such kind of stuffs.

Day 232: "Not an orphan, but a daughter of my Father."

What's up this Sunday? Things were slightly different because I attended the church first service at 9:30. Then, we had our Life Group meeting at Toastbox. It was a very interesting topic and I was reminded of who I am in the eyes of God. I am His child, His daughter and not an ORPHAN. There was a checklist that reveals the heart of an orphan and I found out that most of the time I am acting as an orphan towards God and other people. I ought to be embracing a Father-Daughter relationship with God and not a Father-Slave relationship.

Excerpts from the Book:

1. What you think God feels about you is the way you will treat others in your everyday relationships.

2. A premature inheritance almost always ends up in waste.

3. Intimacy is to precede fruitfulness. On my own words, intimacy first with God than ministry.

The topic was a great reminder and a great encouragement for me. Yey! Looking forward to another meetings like this.

By the way, I signed up for the Creative Writing session which starts next week.
