Children of Light

Children of Light.

Unseen battles in another realm. It is NOT merely pure fiction.

Eph 4:17, Eph 5:8, Eph 6:10-18

No,... no fiction at all.

Hmm, this sudden spiritual fervour almost scares me. Yet, i cannot serve 2 masters.

Circles & Cycles

Finally, after much deliberation..and with a lil push,..i have come up with my first song! hahahaa...

Circles & Cycles

An empty heart, you try to fill
A lost love, you try to find
A weary past, yet still you run
Doubt is cast, O where is the Sun?

Misplaced confidence
Far from repentance
If only you could see
If only you could know
If only you’d dare to ask

Why all the pain?
What do you gain?
Going round in circles, no…

Are we the same?
Is life a game?
Up and down in cycles, no…

What's your thing?

Recently went through my uni's website again and was pleasantly surprised to find this.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What's my thing? Music, Words, Art, Travel, People -how much does Pharmacy fit in? a wee bit, or a stepping stone?

I want to create art (songs, literature, images) that will touch the heart, create realisation-of God's love for people, of His endless hope instead of a hopeless end that so many only see.

Pieces that instill motivation & conviction- people to get out of ruts, addiction, or just simply the mundane.

I want to travel to new countries, cultures, and learn about diff customs- and share with them my own as well.

I want to be involved in a ministry of restoration, linked to a proper organization, that reaches out to communities, to bring healing and deliverance. If possible, on a multinational scale.

In all this, sharing the greatest Gift of all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
As for now, i am a Pharmacy student with two 3000-word essays to write and a huge report to complete; - who still gets bugged by distracting thoughts, has addictions to break, and gets his class venues and times mixed up; -who doesn't have the best people skills and sometimes doesn't care at all about the rest of the world.

So does that mean I quit studying altogether? Not if Col 3:23 rings true in my life. His word- which is not merely one of My Things but is The Thing. And since He knows best what makes me tick (He being my creator), I can't go wrong.
Put into the right perspective, studying will be my thing.

Perhaps Pharmacy has given me a better heart for people? - (not really, church did a far greater job)
Perhaps Pharmacy will be a launchpad for a future ministry? - (yes, maybe...)
Perhaps it wasn't at all about Pharmacy, rather about the people & experiences ive come into contact with? (hmm..)

21 years elapsed. Our lives in the 21st century average out about 75 years.

What will my epitaph read?

"This is your life, are you who you wanna be...?" - This Is Your Life (Switchfoot)

El Simchah Giyl-God my exceeding joy

Finally, something thats not out of the deep deep recesses of my overworking brain.

My Grandma has been baptised!
After 98 years!

A family so steeped in tradition, false idols, superstitions,... and now the head honcho so to speak (grandad has left) has come to the light. She always has had a special place in my heart and am very very grateful that God has convicted her.

After a distressing time mulling over how sin seems to be glorified these days, i have been praying for a sign of God's working hand in my life- this week in particular. And He has answered; Amen!


No doubt this is proof enough for me that He sees (El Roi), He is able (El Yakol), and is faithful (El Aman).

WARNING: CULTURAL-SENSITIVE ISSUES AHEAD.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
just received further clarification that my grandma's house has been cleansed, all the idols taken down. Plus no more ancestral worship during Cheng Beng. Really wished i culd've been there to witness the whole ordeal. Never in my lifetime did i ever think id see the last of those joss-sticks and pink muffins, that fat balding guy with the pot-belly, the red-faced kitchen god, gold frogs etc. Though i did recall saying a prayer or two everytime i passed by those paraphernalia. (my prayer was obviously not to them...)

Truly, i can finally testify:

Acts 16:31 ..."Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household."
