Different Seasons In Our Lives

Last week, during the closing of the service, Pastor James Gen shared something really beautiful. It was something about us being different seasons in our lives. 

Winter - things are cold, harsh, no living things, not pleasant
Spring - there are buddings everywhere, living things start growing, there's hope
Summer - everything is around, beautiful, promising
Autumn - fruits are ripe, a season to harvest

Such beautiful analogy! In lives, we may all be in different seasons. Be it in our career, family, relationships. During Winter, things may be cold, not working the way we wanted, harsh and not pleasant. But if only we endure through, Hope (Spring) will come our way! After Hope, will come Promise and after Promise, will come a season to Harvest. Such a beauty isn't it? (:

Hope in whatever seasons you're in, remember that Hope, Promises & Harvest is waiting to come! Be blessed guys! (:

Self-pity People

I'm not sure if you're come across people in your lives that are self-pity? I just found out a few today. Really sad!

It's so disappointing when i found out about these people. People who are capable to work but may not be the most top having to push other people around them down in order to be seen. This is really pitiful! 

They would spend most of their times convincing each other (the alike types of people) to build a bigger force and spend their time gossiping and complaining away about other people so that they will feel better. Especially when they agree with each other (same comfort sentences). 

I wouldn't say that self-pity is a bad trait (at least they know what they're lacking in, and they should continue to pursue what they couldn't have). But its really unhealthy to wanting to build bigger forces and ruin relationships and friendships as they go on. 

Its really sad if they're in your workforce. I'm glad I've made the right move, really disappointing! :(

2 November.

Today when I was speaking to Alvin, Alvina overheard our conversation and told me something very encouraging.

"You're someone who impacted me alot and have big influence in my Christian life"

I thank God that i was given a chance to be able to be part of her life and to be able to impact her in a way or another.

And it was a great timely reminder. What am I doing now and what have I been doing? Have I been encouraging people and impacting others as my day goes? Or have i totally forgotten my role on earth?

Thank You Lord.

And sempena Hari Deepavali today, Saturday service had a henna booth. Eventhough it may be just a temporary 'engrave', I took to this opportunity to remind myself on God's favour in my life (and whenever i flex my biceps, the favour gets really BIG -- like a BIG FAVOUR).

Have a great weekend everyone!

20.10.2013

Made one of the biggest decisions in my life (other than following Jesus).

Let's pray it was a sound decision and blessings will overflow from there. Thank You Lord! :)

17 October 2013

Second day of work.

Self-study. Cant believe i'm going through Immunology all over again.

The quiet working environment, the desktop, the swivel chair, the cold aircond, the coffee tumbler, the iPod, the notebook and pen and alone! Like those days in Monash library aje?

Supposed to be out on field with colleague after lunch. She just told me that she'd be on mc, so looks like i'll get stuck in this freezer for today. Don't get me wrong, i'm still enjoying myself at work! Lets see how much my brain can absorb today (:

First Day At Work

After a long hiatus, i decided to blog again. Didn't know some of my old writings actually touched some hearts and I believe that i need to write again to brag about His favour in my life. And with this i hope you will be loved and encouraged.

16 October 2013

Marks my first day of work in my new company, Novartis. Another sixteen, just like how i started with my first job on sixteen February 2009. And that was 4.5 years ago. How time flies

And today i want to thank God on where He has led me so far and all the providences and favor that He has showered upon me. I wouldn't be anywhere here if not for Him.

 

 

This is my daily prayer and my mobile phone's lock screen wallpaper. 

 

Although today is only my first day, I thank God for blessing me with a super awesome team with awesome manager, Michael Cheah; with super awesome team members Lennie, Michael Cheng, Charmaine (felt so welcome eventhough she's still at Europe now) as well as Jun and Er-win. Only good things come from God, definitely. Looking forward to greater time and to bring this team to greater heights together, with His favour and blessings overflowing in this team! Thank You Lord!
