okaes.... on a starting note, i'd just like to wish everyone who comes by this blog a very Special and Happy Chinese New Yr... Graced with divine favour with all friends and relatives, that everyone'd receive big big ang paos!!!!! (with big big notes too la of course haha) hmmm... and for all the gals, may God bind all the fats, calories and all unhealthy content in the yummy food we're gonna eat! Amen!! haha...
hmmm.. today, from 8-10, i went for my thai lesson... aiyoh... getting chimer each time.... gotta like come up with impromptu conversations... pressure pressure!! bleah.. But of course, my Jesus is greater than that! hmmm then after that, i went over to pgp to play badminton with jason gwen and zhiwei.. hmmm... frankly speaking, it was really fun... and like it kinda made me feel good cuz at least i'm like making up (a bit) for the oily and unhealthy foods i see myself eating tmr and the day after... Hmmm i went over to Jason's room, and.......... found that his room was really really plain... like super plain! how could anyone stay in such a plain environment... seriously, i can stand messy yet funky rooms... but neat yet plain rooms... that's another issue altogether... oh man... i seriously have a great urge to do a makeover for his room... haha!
hmmm ok, after playing like for quite a while, i went over to macs to have lunch with jo... Tat Hwan came along too... and then came zheng wei and ermm eugene... ya... the latter 2 i only knew them today... Yea... we had a blessed time... time of basically quite a bit of sharing... there was this question.. Do we hafta see the manifesto goodness of God as u confess His word in order for ur confession to come to pass, or could it come to pass just simply by confessing alone without believing? hmmm... highly debatable... On zhengwei's side, he said that it's written that God saw then He spoke... hence the need to see... On tat hwan and eugene's side, they agreed that we're made kings and priests and hence our words have authority... on Jo's side, she said it's not a matter of seeing or not; so long u have faith as a mustard seed, God sees it... and that really.. it's not a matter of faith in faith, more so a matter, as pastor put it, that as we see His grace, He sees our faith... On my part, hmmmmm.... i didn't say much... that's the thing when u're with all the bible pro people... i just said sthg like when u start confessing, eventually u'll come to believe it... nothing impactful or or like... 'hmmm revelation!'... sigh.... haha... really ah, i trust God that i'll soon reach that kinda level man... bleah... for now, it's good to just sit at His feet and listen haha... Pertaining to that question though, yea i'd think that it's really not so much an issue of whether u see or not... everyone in Christ would at least have faith as a mustard seed... and that alone is enough for God... for Him to answer prayers... Just like how i got into NUS... like, wow... i won't repeat the testimony again... but like really... He saw my faith as a mustard seed... if not i really wouldn't be where i am today man... i fell so many times... but praise God, i was still secure within the ark!
Okaes, nuff said for now... :)
