heys, you never know what impact you made to me! :D

Secretly, the first thing i wish to do when i come home from work is to visit our all anticipating blog and starting rolling my eyes down the post and sink into the heavenly worship or praise songs. However, I must choose to refrain myself from doing so because I might get so carried away reading and end up not doing what i intentionally wanted to do. :)

So instead of a long post, part of me have decided I shall drop in one or two or even three but not hundreds of affirmation at one go when i come online. :D

Firstly, i want to take this time to affirm and appreciate one of my sheep who has been with me for years. Honestly, given our circumstances of different exact ministry location it limits us from being able to interact more. Truth be it, I'm a not exactly good shepherd especially when it comes to spending time compared to most of you. So because of distance, different meetings and even likings by default we should be not exactly aware of each other lives. However, i just want to take this time to affirm my dearest sheep for always taking the effort and time to give me a short update of his life whenever i come online. If none of you talk to me on MSN (which most of you don't! which i choose not to find a link between David is fierce which it's a total fallacy), i'm exactly certain that this very sheep will pop up on my screen and keep me in the loop of his life. Though sometimes i'm very lousy at keeping my eyes open i will end up falling asleep in front of the computer, he still never fails on updating me though knowing I have a tendency of being in a state of 'angle being'. So my dearest sheep, i want to take this time to appreciate you for doing your very best in maintain this relationship despite our limitations. I truly appreciate you a lot. :) For all the little updates, it allows me to know that I do have a place in your heart just as you have one in mine. :) For all your dreams and desires that is in your heart, I'm doing my best to support you and help you make it come to pass with God. So dearest JALON (jian hao), thank you for making an impact in my life. As i shepherd you, you have shepherded me in making the effort to maintain this relationship.

*all you sheepies out there, learn from my JALON LIAU JIAN HAO.( I BET I SPELLED HIS NAME WRONGLY)

Next up, I just want to take few more minutes to honor someone integrity that I have observed in our family. Knowing this person, i would say that he is one of those few that I have seen him struggling in the decision that he has to make. If i were to list out few of them, i guess this entire entry would once again eradicate those previous post which I have yet read. Yes, back to the story of this little boy. He's young, cute, charming in some ways (because when he choose to be a child of God, he's like so totally MUST TAKE) but still quite irritating at times. Alright, i believe most of us have went through this period of our lives when we will check with our classmates if they would be going school the next day and when your desired truth is what they say (which is everyone decides to PON school), you would without hesitation choose not to go as well. Who of you ever did that or with the intention to do that before, please stop smiling to yourself now. So there was one recent night where we had an overnight and he told me that he won't be going to school with the seemingly righteous reason of since the rest are not going, i shall not go. However, you know what happens what david hoe smile right? It's like whao. Think TWICE or maybe TWENTY times. I shared with him the value of being salt and like (which means as Christ followers we want to shine for God, so if we pon like the rest who ponned then what impression are we trying to leave with the world?). The principal is simple (WWJD - WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? (xue yong favorite quote recently) So when our overnight ended which was about 5am, this little charming boy decided to go home since he didn't bring his school uniform. Though 70% of me was inclined that he would be like 'WTH, he ask me go school i must go meh? Just don't care him and just pon.' but the other side of me choose to believe that he will make mature decision.

The outcome: HE DIDN'T GO TO SCHOOL. (ON TIME) I guess he went home and fell asleep for a short while and when he woke up it was few hours after school has already begun. He could choose to buy MC (which i know he used to do it like free) but he still made the choice to go to school though he was late for three hours. Honestly, little charming boy, i'm proud of your integrity before God. Your very decision made you no longer a slave to sin but your are victoriously. Seriously, sometimes this guys seem like a little heck care to what you say, but i always do believe in that part of him that will wrestle to be more like Jesus because he knows about God's love for him and his heart for people. Further more, he used to one of those that I would never have the certainty to know that he will be in the our land on weekdays unless he's asked to come. But as of yesterday, he made the effort to go down alone even though no one was there for one of the rare times. I know that he's making effort to love God love people. This entire journey isn't a bed of roses but i do know that God will bring him through it to be the man that he was made to be. A dangerous man.

So he's none other than our beloved SLASH (ELTON)!

Alright, better end here and continue my affirmation some other times. :D

Everyone, let's continue to meet the needs of both believers and those who do not. in all we do, it starts with love and continue in love and shall live with love. :) It's the love of God that changes our lives and this is why we want to tell the rest about his love. LOVE LOVE LOVE!

To live for God alone.
