back from church, feeling sleepy and somehow, "shut off" from the world.

woke up at around 1130am and went online. there wasn't much people online except for shuhui. well, of cause i chatted with her. it was a conversion of ever-changing topics~ from working to astrology to horoscopes to why are man getting controlled by money. if i didn't notice the time, i think we would have continued chatting.

we didn't stop until 4 plus when she had to go. but, i had a great time chatting with her, especially about astrology. it's quite rare to find a person who's extremely interested in astrology - the myths and mysteries behind everything in the universe. the blackholes, the meaning of the planets, the billions and trillions of stars... wow! we're in a super small earth.

a typical idea about astrology is stars~ nothing but stars, and their knowledge of stars are just little white dots in the skies twinkling. to them, it's beautiful... but there's more then it meets the eye.

i was like that at 1130am. but at around 2pm, i was transformed~ shuhui showed me a site that was about the galaxy and i was transfixed to the informations. i realized that the galaxy is really beautiful and there are so many "areas" that are left unexplored.

i felt that everything is being planned out so beautifully. God planned all these events to happen - the bigbang, the blackholes, the planets, the stars, the galaxy, the milkyway... everything! everything we see on earth, is such a beauty. the skies are blue as the vapours reflects only blue colour, for some various reason. the night sky is enchanting with stars and planets that are visible to the naked eye.

imagine life in venus, where it's the hottest planet, or pluto, the coldest.

24 hours is all we need in a day. 12 hours of sun, another 12 of moon. (not sure about other parts of the world...) other planets experience 10 hours a day, some more, some less. their gravity pull ain't quite 9.81, but huge planets like jupiter got their gravity set so high, it's impossible for life. water is the source of life, and the earth is 70% (i think) water! not all drinkable of cause, but technology has breakthroughs that allows seawaters to be distilled to become drinking water.

the earth is all we have to live in, and people are polluting, destroying it. are people stopping in their tracks, and looking up to the skies admiring what God has done for us - the sun, moon, skies, stars, planets. perhaps everyone is too busy to do that.

what if 1 day, we establish contact with humans from other planets, would it be interesting or dangerous? think - survival of the fittest.

feel that the sun is a huge fireball? be amazed that some stars are way larger then the sun and it's impossible for the sun to become a blackhole because it's too small. amazing? God planned all these, so that the sun would not become a blackhole, sucking all the planets in the solar system into eternal darkness.

perhaps i'm over-reacting, but these thoughts have lingered in my mind for quite sometime actually. nothing happens accidently, it's all planned by God. there are hidden reasons behind every action, so does God. He has his own reasons for doing things, often unknown and doubtful.

his existance is even a doubt to unbelievers! but, who set the stars in their places, and made earth a place for humans. the bible calls him God.

i think i should stop here.

well, after chatting with shuhui, i played a bit of gunbound before heading to church.

had dinner with leo, xiaojia and ee yong, or rather, they watched me eat as they ate popcorn chicken only.

service... perhaps i had too much on my mind, and i felt weird. i didn't seem to focus and concentrate, but i know what was going on. wrote down notes and responded like usual, but it was after service that made me feel weird.

i felt that i drifted away from God~

had a nice chat with alvina and she encouraged me, sharing with me many stuffs of what should i do, and not do.

xiaojia got me a book about being strong as a man. both stuffs encouraged me loads, and i began to realise my mistakes, my flaws and my sins.

Christianity ain't quite a bed of roses~ vene told me that before. i guess i'll have to keep that firm in mind and overcome my current situation.

action speaks louder then words, working develops my potential and serving God is His command for us.

i think Pastor Kong is cool! saving souls all over the world, doing things that no one dared to dream of - 100,000 souls to be saved. i think he has exceeded the target, and going for more!

i wannabe like him!
