"Dear CG,
Just wanna share with you my joy of waking up to God's word!
Remember the plan i shared with u after service? I tried it today. So Pastor Tiak's voice woke me up this morning, and i tell you, it's hard to press the snooze button and break my "covenant" when i am woken up by the Pastor's voice =P
So for the first time in more than a month, i got up straight away, had time to iron clothes and still get to school by bus! (i've been cabbing recently)
But the best part is that joy of hearing from God right from the start of the day. Know something amazing? I randomly put in a sermon CD, and this morning i was pleasantly surprised that it was related to yesterday's sermon- about the Word of God! Hehehe... i'm a sucker for this kinda "coincidences" and God knows it. =)
So i was reminded that bible reading is not like drinking coffee - read already, suddenly high. Sometimes it's more like taking vitamin pills. You may not feel the effect straight away, but you keep taking them, because they build you up.
I was reminded that like babies naturally crave milk, Christians should naturally crave the Word of God. If not, we are like sick babies who have lost their appetites. Then we need to seek help!
And i am reminded about how the accountability cards really helped me - even though i was at first appalled by the idea of it.
Wheeeee.... The word of God is sweeter than honey and it nourishes the soul. It makes up for lack of sleep, it lifts the spirit, it brings us closer to God and makes us more aware of Him.
HAve you had your milk today?
=)
Luv,
Shuyan"

Enjoyed the combined service yesterday.
Enjoyed the presence of enthusiastic teens.
Loved the fact that Brightonites are just so... Brightonitish,
knew God is with us,
and there was a hopefulness.
Today was a great day too.
Love waking up hearing God (via tiak, via cd)
In school, felt my class is very lovable. haha...dunno why. anyway i always find students lovable during exams coz they are quiet. Quiet = cute. Like rabbits. Haha... okae, not always.
Another wonderful thing about exam season is that i get to go home early. =) So i was in school for only 7 hours today!! but of coz, i still have to mark when i get home. but it's nice being home alone for awhile each day... it's like i have my own space again.
Re-listened to ytd's sermon, snoozed on the floor for awhile, gonna have dinner with munch, then having ihad session tonite.
Only not-so-fantastic thing is that i'm having a sore-throat. Agh. Must be the durians yesterday. But at least it's a non-teaching week, so still can survive school.
I'm so happy.
I don't wanna stray again.
Ever!
Munch's back i can hear him!
byeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
