The story of my 21st birthday.

Wow... Had a great night tonight! I believe all the good things come form You, Lord. ^^ Thank You Papa for everything. For my friends whom I dined with just now and for all the things they've done until giving me a surprise in Grace Point Memorial Park ! Honestly, I had no idea nor hint that they were doing this behind my back. Here's what happen...

Mel picked me up at home and I thought there were only 3 of us but it turned out to be four of us (plus Geraldine!). We went for dinner at Upperstar in Lintas and couldn't even finish our meal. When we waited for our orders to arrive, Mel and Eca went out to buy reload credit. Me and Gurl waited and waited. They took a long time... (After the surprise: it turns out that they were out buying the cake.) I even offered Mel to drive to our next destination but for the 1st time ever, she refused me driving. (For your info, Mel NEVER say 'no' when I offered to drive. she likes being the passenger i guess. xD)

We went to Taman Perdana around 9something for a short while since it closes at 10PM. IF i've known that we're going there, I wouldn't be wearing heels. It irritates me so much that I took 'em of and walk while we were in Taman Perdana. (Yeah, I don't like having blister. Ouch.)

After that, we went to Grace Point Memorial Park. There, the surprise was executed by Mel & Eca & Gurl (but Gurl got surprised herself by them). I was even more surprised when they gave me presents. (Awwww....) i love it. =)

Oh, and the lists go on and on.. But I'm glad we spent quality time together. =) 

Gurl & I

Yum yum...

I miss dad now. He's outstation and only will be coming back on Monday (tomorrow). I wanna have dinner with my family. =) Thank You Lord for You are so so soooo good... I remember in bible that says everything has its own season. There are season to cry, to laugh, to be silent, to speak, to sow, to reap and so on... (Ecclesiastes 3) I guess this day is the season to rejoice. So when every season has passed, let's prepare for another season (which are yet to be revealed)

Be blessed!

Love, 

Nethy. 

Be content.

Had a rare quality time with mom and bro just now watching TV (Dad is outstation, wish he was here too). Eventhough its a simple situation, the atmosphere was nice. Even its not a big deal, I thank God for the times we had. :) 

Sometimes we dream of having many things in life that we didn't even notice the small things in life that made life meaningful. We ask for more, yet we aren't satisfied in what we have. (Ouch, that touched a nerve.)

Sometimes we're too busy achieving this and that that we don't have the time to slow down and reflect on what has happened & what's waiting for our heads to turn around and notice it.

For a moment: Be thankful. Be content. In all things, give thanks to God. Give thanks, while we still have time. ^^

A short funny story.

And so as i drove to send Mom to work, we were talking and until we recalled about this one funny incident@conversation between my cousin Fione and my niece Amber. Amber (or 'ber-ber' we call her) is 6 years of age. 

Cousin: "Ber-ber, what is ur kg?" (Kilogram)

Ber-ber: "I am KG 2." (Kindergarten 2)

Hahaha! cute right... xD

Unedited.

Funny, unedited recordings we did months ago. I found these in my folder and I post it bcos i miss these moments and these vids juuussstt made me laugh. haha..
In the short video, u can see Joshia moving around behind us, ringing phone and the sudden voice that tease us (guh..haha)
The long video shows further interruption and teasing by Bolibs. xD

Songs: Kiss me by The Cranberries
I miss her! Oleh itu, i posted this... =)
Enjoy~

My precious ring

Taken...

I LOVE HIM!

"For God so loved the world that He give His only begotten Son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16

My personal sharing:
I attended a wedding just now with dad. On the stage background, it was written - "Love is patient, kind and never gives up. Love never fails." Love between human is something valuable. BUT, NO earthly love on this earth can ever, and i mean EVER replace God's love for me and you. No earthly love can be compared to God's love. That's something big, and i really mean it BIIIGGG.

I feel like I'm not worthy to post this video because I know I'm a sinner. And knowing that Jesus died for me so that I can be saved, I feel *speechless*.
Utterly speechless. But I'm posting this because this love must be known by all people (because Jesus has paid the price!). My gratitude for Him overflows and keep overflowing. Thank You, Lord Jesus...

Its been 3 years... but I love Him strongly as the day passes by... Thank You Lord... =')

Something I don't do often. haha.

Honestly, I can't remember the last time I did this silly, vain (yeah, it is actually.) webcam shots. *laughs*
I bought this new webcam recently and its not working in skype. So, i guess the only thing I can do with it is taking pictures! (gosh, I'm so gonna fix that, kalau tidak, sayang luit saja lor..)

p.s.-I have no favourite shot here. But if I must choose, i'd pick the funniest (for me la funny..) which is on the 3rd row, 3 column. I tried to do "the rock" eyebrow raise but I don't look like him instead, i look really funny..haha!

YLTC 2

Venue: Kionsom Retreat Baptist Centre

Date: 30 September – 2 October 2011

            …and so I got there with Kenny only during the second day.

Had a refreshing time there with the Lord.  At this point of writing, I’m not sure what to write (It had been awhile I’d last write something long). Be patient with me and read through patiently as I unwind my packed thoughts while writing this down. I am not sure what to expect when I join this camp. Or maybe, give? But anyhow, I know something’s gonna happen there. So here it goes… These are all during the sermons by Ps. Ong (like before, Imma do it in point form for easy reading and mind-processing) =) :

1) If you love God, you will obey Him.

Love birthes obedience. True love hates sin, it will not have anything to do with sin. We should love God more than our life (obey God). If we truly love God, we will realign our life plan ACCORDING TO HIS COMMANDMENTS and we will stop live life recklessly (dengan sewenang-wenangnya)

If we live in disobedience, we won't experience God's presence because God hates sin!

  

John 14:15-26 [Jesus promised us Holy Spirit] 

Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth. The "world" represents unbelievers. He is not given to the "world" but to God's people. But nowadays, even God's people deny/reject Holy Spirit because they do not know Holy Spirit.

Develop a deep relationship with Holy Spirit. IT IS CRUCIAL (sangat penting!) Because without Him, we would not mature in Christ and would not progress spiritually. Remember that we are from dust and will go back to dust~ Don't depend on our dust-liness strength. (When you think you're strong on your own feet only, think again.) Depend on God (D.O.G.)! We are living our spiritual life because Jesus is alive, He has risen from the dead.

Stop being hypocrite and stop living for this "world". It is harder to live for Satan than for Jesus. Living for Jesus gives us joy, peace, serenity and harmony (It does!!)

Live righteously (Hidup dalam kekudusan). Don't follow your emotions but fear the Lord. (Yeah, don't let your emotions deceive you. I've been there and it really stings. Deal with your emotions, trust me, Holy Spirit will help you get through it. You'll be amazed!) 

Live a life with principles (of God, of course~), according to His commands.

2) PADI (bukan mamam...)

John 15:8-13 [Be fruitful]

P- persekutuan@fellowship

A- alkitab

D- doa

I- injilkan

No matter what, protect the body of Christ by obeying His words and be wise... Live for Jesus, not for your emotions. 

When choosing a partner, think carefully and PRAY. Don't rush but ask God about it and listen (when listening, come to God with a neutral mind because sometimes we tend to create an answer and assume that its God's voice padahal suara hati kita sendiri!) [Jangan tersenyum2 baca nie blog sudah la ah..]

See how things go about that person. Is he suitable or not? Does he fear God or not? Does he say grace when during your 1st date or not? 

(Notice that boy-girl relationship is very much highlighted during the camp, right? I think its a call for youths to really rise up and make a difference in our distorted youth lifestyle. Biar orang nampak kita lain daripada yang lain. Sebab they need to know the truth and the truth will set them free~~~ Dare to be different! One influenced person can influence the rest of the people ^^) 

If I am spiritually healthy, I will proclaim the Good News to people no matter how.

After this camp, when you're alone, satan will IMMEDIATELY attack you through your mind, play around with your thoughts, try his best to inject negative thoughts in your head. FIND an accountability partner!!! Don't be alone and keep all your feelings to yourself! Join fellowship... (In our fellowship, we share what we've gone through the days and just share to the group what we are having and we'd encourage one another through His words and lastly pray for one another. So, fellowship IS important!)

Final thoughts: Every camp, God is giving something new in each and every one of us. Keep expecting more from God. Keep your fire burning. Be sensitive to Holy Spirit. If you fall, quickly run to Jesus and confess your sins. He is ready to forgive... 

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just 

and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." -1 John 1:9

I don't know when we will meet again but till we do, lets keep on praying for one another and be an agent of transformation that carry God's love wherever we go. Ada Amen? 

Amen... ^^

WhatIsSheTyping??

I feel nervous. Like, being the goalkeeper waiting for the ball to come (or maybe got hit by the ball) and its like, “There’s a ball coming and it will surely come. And when it comes, it won’t be nice but its gonna be hard and rough. Argh!!!”

Oh well, this phrase would be said only if the goalkeeper is me. *laughs* But this is the picture of what I’m feeling now.

I know its stupid to type this in blog but AM I READY? (“cheer up! You are ready…”)

SEA is one situation that I have learned to handle. It takes sometime to learn it. THIS is something different than SEA. What makes me actually nervous is knowing that I don’t know what is waiting for me. I only know there are stakes that I’m gonna take and the stakes are high. I just pray that as time goes by, I will learn and learn and eventually this will be an experience that I can share with others. I guess lotsa people experience this, huh? =)

Answering to my post title, I’m writing (or expressing) down what  I call as –Self motivation! (according to my way)
