hello!

was prompted by a friend to update.
well, seriously, i don't know where to start.
it's been too long since i've update, so thr's many things i've missed out.

today is the 1st day working in the ward aft such a long time of lectures.
i felt quite happy and welcomed by the staff.
i'm still figuring out many things along the way, both work & r/s w ppl.
i'm thankful enough for friends to hear me out, to pray and assure me.

I jus saw on tv abt taboos- abt female bodybuilders, abt an indian festival whr males will dress as females to b married to their gods, abt female wrestlers.

several reasons- they want to be different; they want to feel confident; they want to be strong; they want to feel accepted, belonged and loved; they want blessings fr.
their gods; they feel closer to god.

isn't that what everybody wants?
yet, if those are really the measure of human's confident, acceptance, belonging and blessings,
then, one earthquake, one cyclone, one tornado, one tsunami,
all will be gone.

If ever you are in such times and your heart is still beating and your pulse is still pulsating, it means God hasn't give up on you yet and you don't have to give up on yourself. He's still waiting to love you, accept you, and bless you, only with your permission. Before you say all is gone, think again.

Sth fr Max Lucado, Facing the Giants, "You will never know Jesus is all you need until He is all you have."

God is too good to be unkind,
God is too wise to be confused,
When I cannot trace His hand,
I can always trust His heart.
