thurs went ard lookin 4 my particular shelf's brackets. cos some were old n rusted so they broke. anyway was hard finding. had 2 settle 4 some substitute. met trinity 4 prayer. was good. but d cafe we went too was too ex. man, silly D have atas taste but no pocket-substance. but then again she smart cos we treated her 4 bday.

today packed all day again. i nearly fall into the housewife trap - because i ve been packin n cleanin all day, i expect opp 2 come home n pick up their part asap, 4gettin dat they have been workin all day, need rest. so dun nag or get impatient! haha. like i said, i didnt fall, juz so nearly! was getting impatient with mum when i caught myself. hm.

they r doin retiling works at the void deck. been at it for days. wonder wat's takin them so long. drill n drill. i cant even hear myself think or read or do QT properly. feels almost as if there's a dentist in my brain drilling!

d way 2 drown out the noise ard is 2 turn up d music u wanna listen 2. 

dat's wat my bro told me as i wondered how he could study with all this noise. he blasted worship music in his room. while i didnt have the  speakers 2 do it for me, i plugged into my shuffle. listening 2 worship music, audio bible, MP3 sermons. man... what a great way 2 combat all dat drilling noise!

today is long service award. i got it cos i served for 8 years. it's incredible how so many others can serve God in this company for more than 35 years. 
from faith to faithfulness. 
i love d song "blessing unto nations". 

it's been a rather incredible day. i wouldnt have expected it 2 have turned out dis way. 1st time connected with dad. felt his heart as i heard his tots n reflections. God is doin a gr8 thing. will fast n pray.

wat i got fr d conference in philippines:
- a few dubious looking insect bites.
- less body weight cos i didnt get 2 eat as much as i normally do
- came in contact with a godly woman (key speaker) whose love for the Word and intimacy for God is unparalleled in d conf. (praise God for debbie)
- a prayer appt set up by God leadin 2 a breakthru in an area i didnt know i desperately need, giving me handles (thank God for susan). it's like some domino effect.1 lies down n so many others topple with it. truth seeped deeper in2 my soul- God is good
- "so heavenly-minded dat u r no earthly-good" is a lie dat as derailed so many. i ve seen enough tragedies- people who spend less time wif God n in His word cos they bought into this. u cant be heavenly-minded dat u r no earthly-good unless u r "pirated heavenly minded". noe wat i mean? d bible tells us to set our minds on things above, 2 fix our eyes on Jesus (who is seated at the right hand of the Father!!!) if u r really heavenly-minded, u will definitely be of immense earthly good! 
- d preoccupation of one's mind n heart can easily be seen, whether it is God n His word or d ways of men. let me resolve to know nothing except Christ n Him crucified. (1 Cor 2)
- man like 2 pursue knowledge n be thot wise. but the wisdom of man is foolishness to God. one should not come with "clever n persuasive words" lest the cross be emptied of its power (1 cor 1:17, 2:4)
- wat blessedness 2 be accepted unconditionally n 2 have a fellow sojourner! 

i m blessed. i m loved. God delights in me. 

there's alot 2b done. many things will happen. exciting stuff akan datang!
