photoblog.

this is what has been happening the past...month or so. as they say, pictures speak a thousand words, so other than the brief blurb (and also the caption when you run your mouse over the photos, if you didn't know that!) I shall let the photos do the talking. =)

yup that's the end of photos for now. there's more than this, but it's too time consuming uploading them and editing each one, placing captions and all that. heh. =P

praise report: GOD IS FAITHFUL! =) even when I don't do as much yet expect Him to make things happen. it's only the start now...I need to keep praying to see more miracles happen!

AWESOME AWESOME GOD!

I really want to be an influence.
I might have an ordinary life, but if God can use anything, I want Him to use me!
I don't want my life to just go along like nothing I do means anything; I want what I do to mean something, be it big or small.
I am blessed to be a blessing!

and as for trusting Him, I should take my own advice, and stop looking around. because if I say I trust Him, it means that I'm leaving Him to make the decision for me, leaving Him to bring me what I'm looking for in His time, not anytime sooner. yeah, I guess I'm slightly disappointed this time around, but making the same mistake over and over again is just...not learning, is it? hmm. and so I guess I just need to guard my heart more closely from now on. =) let this be the last time this happens...

anyway, Elim International Idol is tomorrow (Sat). 8.30pm at Elim Christian Centre. =) hope to see you there! like Ah Ma said, we're going to practice in the afternoon so we can make a fool of ourselves gracefully at night! heh. seeya there! =D

p.s. Med Cultural Night went pretty well last night! a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who made it happen! =) it was a good experience working with you guys!
