sometimes, the basics will bring you back to your feet.

-

met kim and sam for lunch at bukit panjang plaza. while waiting for kim, sam took the chance and taught me bridge. its a rather easy card game that requires you to play your cards properly, so that you and your partner would be able to win.

i shall not explain the gameplay as its rather confusing~ hEh. but its quite amazing that sam managed to teach me and explained clearly after just playing it for 1 night.

no doubt that she's really a bright girl=)

we reached pasir ris at 3.00pm and we felt as though time passed by so quickly~ hEh. probably because we were crapping too much along the way and even played daidee on the bus =/ this time, i didn't even win a single round and i think kim won all the rounds~ shEesh..

was told by the counter ladies, at downtown east, that i can only collect my tickets 30 minutes later. so we played bridge at the nearby chillout place and watched sam do her bio homework. slowly, friends started coming and joined us.

jireh and his sister, edwin and veron, peck chuan and his friends and june. well, peck chuan and june didn't join us in the concert but the rest did.

before the concert started, the Pastor led a in a prayer. kim and i felt really uncomfortable during that period of time as the presence really felt weird. i was looking around and i realized that some people wasn't praying, but i doubt that's the problem, and most people were speaking in tongues. just don't understand the weird feeling.

anyway, it got a lot better when planet shakers took over and started.

loads of new songs and we were caught unprepared. the chairman (i think) of planet shakers came out and shared a word with us. he preached about obed-edom, who lingers in the presence of God.

that messaged really reminded me about emerge conference, when i was so hungry for the presence of God and even prayed that i would be in the sunday team for security, so that i can stay in church all day.

thank God for such a simple message that really challenged me once again, to love His house, to dwell in His presence, to treasure His presence and to carry His presence.

we don't need to help God, but we need God more than anything else. He should be the first in our lives, only then, He is able to do great things through us!

basically, that was what that guy shared and even though it was short, the message spoke deep into me and i realized that i've been "trying" to "understand" God that i'll fell. but all i needed was to have child-like innocence and faith to receive from Him.

important note to everyone.

please stop thinking that kim and i are an item and please stop going around asking or telling people that we're very close and stuffs. i've had enough and i've heard enough of it. i do not care of what people say, but it DOES really get on my nerves each time i hear it. the bible says that we do not gossip or slander about our brethens.

kim and i are just friends and YES, we often meet up. thats just it.

thank you and God bless.
