New Year Resolution 2014

Just made a list of my New Year Resolution for 2014. I have been practicing this for the past 4 years. As I looked at my list for 2013, I am happy to have achieved 6/10 of the goals that I have set for myself. 2013 has truly been a truly amazing year because:-

1) Spiritually, I believe that God has been calling me to return home. With my new job at Christian Outreach to the Handicapped, I have been experiencing his love and grace abundantly.

2) I had the opportunities to tread on unfamiliar grounds; doing things I didn't know I was capable of, such as, devotion sharing and emceeing for a work-related event.

3) Wedding & Marriage preparation made me realise how much I treasure my loved ones. Additionally, I also made effort to do things that I used to think I am uninterested in, e.g. cooking.

4) Cherish all my friendships and newfound friendships even more as I age.

5) Want to become a better human because I do not know when my time will be up.

I hope that for this coming new year as I embark on my next stage of life, I will be an even more humble, teachable and overall better person. :)

God bless.

Love,
Pam

Honouring Mr Lee Kuan Yew

23 Mar 2015: While getting ready for work, Nat told me that Mr Lee Kuan Yew has passed on. I didn't expect the multitude of sadness that followed. Found out that Prime Minister Mr Lee Hsien Loong would be addressing Singaporeans on his father's death at 8am and my heart went out to him. As I was watching his address, I am reminded that no matter who he is, he is still his father's son. When I see the profile and cover pictures of many of my friends changed into mono colours, I see unity and appreciation. By human standards perhaps we may debate about whether he is a good leader, but I believe he was called to serve with the others when Singapore really needed one. RIP Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge. It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong. (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with. Though I h...

peace in outer planet

for days my life on outer planet was blissful, i hope that's not too big a word to use. all i do is eat, work, read and sleep. sounds awesome. yea, it was. even met up with people i really haven't seen in a while. glad that they still look so much recognizable. their hairstyle didn't even change one bit. minutes turn to hours, and to days, and to weeks. tell you something great. my parents are lovely. my relationship with them is good. one of the best things God has given me. i'm undeniably playful and full of curiosity which lead to some pretty unnecessary exploration, experiences of the dumb whatsoever and yet they just let me be. they know that i'll be back i assume. somehow. probably i underestimated their understanding of me. as i grow up. my amount of allies dip lower. all i can say is, i think i did or am still trying to do something about it. alrighty, bottom line: i'm fine. just to update. ;p
