Because of my Lord

Yes, I am sick again! The usual sore throat.. I sensed that it's coming... yet I went out the whole day last Friday and made it worst I think. On Sat morning, I coughed out the painful blood stained phelgm. Nasty. My throat hurt so much. Stayed at home and after 3 days now... Im still staying at home.

My brother knows me. If Im going to stay at home for more than a day, I will be bored to death. Haaa..... yes! I get bored easily. But I guess age is really catching up on me... my bone doesn't move or contain as much energy as I want it to be. Im aching all over & staying at home doesn't sound like a bad thing after all.

As usual, thinking of my life again... this year as I said before is especially exciting. I thank God that because I know my Lord, I have a different perspective in life from most people. Singapore is such a competitive society. Everyone is striving to make it big in life. Come to think about it, I have always been an average person all my life & I like it that way. I never thought of trying to make it big in life. To come to the facts, I know the reason why I go to University & study so hard is because I want my mom to know I can make it too. I never aim to be number 1 in class, never aim to be No.1 in my company. I just like it that Im average. I never thought that I will earn alot of money one day, never thought that I will stay in a big house one day. I just want an average life. But because I know my Lord, I know He is not calling me to be just average in life. He is calling me to be the best that I can be. The BEST, Shirley. Hear that? Yes, GOD will do MIGHTY things among you! Who? me? Yes, you SHIRLEY!

How? I don't know. I just have to obey God one step at a time & enter into a great adventure with Him. That is why this year, I sense that maybe Im going to make a very important decision in my life. A decision that will take my career away, leave Singapore with all my family & friends here. It can sound really scary.... but it may be a start of a new adventure with my Lord. I know God has given me a creative mind, I can do so many things & have so many ideas of ministry work. I am just limiting myself with all the "I can't do it" mindset.

Shirley, be bold & step out in faith!

Shirley, you have faith!

Yeah God, hold me tight! You are all I have!

I thank you Lord that because of you in my life, many things that seem impossible become possible in YOU!

Because of you, life is full of adventures.

Because of you, life is beautiful.

It is meaning because You are in it.

Thank you Lord!

Love you Jesus.
