Secure in His hands! =)

Another exciting weekend juz passed... On Sat I was stumped for the first time while giving tuition, lolx... Some Binomial proving question... Can u imagine? One of the easiest topics la... Did it b4 but forgot the exact steps so was like kinda trying to do and explain at the same time... In the end I couldnt complete the qn, so paiseh rite? In the end told Jia Qian tat I'll go and find out for her over the weekend... Oh man, brain's getting abit rusty nowadays, better go use it more often, lolx...

Headed down to church after lunch at her place (her Mum already put out my share so abit rude to refuse la) to meet Jin Xiu and Jason regarding the youth BBQ... Jason was late so I discussed wad I could with Jin Xiu first... Not everything's settled but at least we roughly know wad's gonna happen and hu's taking charge of wad... I'm reli quite excited abt this BBQ and I do hope tat there'll be lots of new frenz... It'll be worth the effort to see new people coming one step closer to Christ... Hmmm, maybe I can ask my students to go oso, hahaz...

Cell at Simon's house was reli gd... He shared the first 2 verses of Psalm 121 and I found tat to me I'm so secure in God's hands... As in nowadays I'm juz giving tuition and I dunno if I'm reli spending the rest of my time well... But I was reminded once again tat "my help comes from the maker of Heaven and Earth" and as long as I get help from the right source, I dont have to worry abt wad's happening around me cos He's ultimately in control... It's a sortof funni feeling but I juz feel tat as long as I walk with Him I will be so secure... Yes I might not see the trials yet but somehow I know tat with Him around, I can go thru wadever life throws at me, and tat's very reassuring to me... I'm not saying I wont react violently when something hits... Rather I'm saying that I'm like softof assured no matter wad happens cos He's in this together with me... I'm not managing my life alone... He cares for me and wants to help... He loves and understands me and wad I'm going thru... I juz find that to be such a wonderful promise! =) We managed to share and pray and I think this first cell gathering of the yr was reli a gd start for 2008... May God continue to bless us with abundance and a sense of purpose!

And today I finally could wake up quite late on a Sunday, lolx... Woke up at 9 la, then went to church with my brother... Tried to ensure that all the youth knew abt the BBQ by telling their respective leaders... Told them tat the main thing was to push for more new frenz... When I went into the Youth Rm to announce to the Sec 1s and 2s, Li Shien Jie said tat whoever can bring 5 frens or more would not need to pay... It was such a cool idea la! Luckily our budget is enough to cover all the extra expenses... (new frenz are not paying in the first place) Also extended the invitation to Jing Ping, Sing Heng, Xin Hui and Shu Qi as they are now teaching the Sec 1s and 2s... Hopefully it'll be a time when everyone can reli bond together yet still remember the important purpose of reaching out to our frenz =)

Anyway, after service I came to know abt this choir thingy tat some of the youth organised... Went up for awhile to take a look after lunch... Not too sure wad they're doing but it seems interesting... Maybe something can evolve from there? Our very own youth choir? Well I juz hope tat they enjoyed themselves... Went down after tat to the Youth Rm and played Xiangqi with Johan and Kaiqi... Won one, lost one... Seriously rusty after not playing for so long, lolx... Then I saw Qi Ying Lao Shi and went up into the main hall to spend some time sharing wad I knew abt playing the keyboard with her... Apparently she had some of the exact same frustrations tat I faced while playing and we managed to have quite a gd session together after discussing and sharing and listening to each other =) Went down and left for badminton with Kaiqi, Jing Hui and Han En after tat...

Today was the first badminton session in 2008 and there was suddenly so many ppl tat we were stopped at the counter in the clubhouse... Had some tense moments even when my Dad and tried to negotiate with the lady at the counter... Thank God tat finally we could all make it the courts without having to compromise anyone... Phew! Though I onli played like 3 matches in 3 hrs, I thought it was still quite a gd session and the time spent was worth it... Played some table tennis too and a few of us tried to teach Audrey how to play... She's a fast learner I muz say... Roughly got the hang of it after a few tries... Overall I still enjoyed myself and it was reli time well spent... Prob will organise again next wk... Love Badminton sooooooo much, hahaz...
