Updates: 2014 - Present

Dear Blog,

It has been a while since I last wrote extensively.  Perhaps with some time on my hands now, I shall briefly update about what has been going on in my life.  Time really flies and I have been married for 2.5 years.  I'm in a blissful marriage, yes, I praise the Lord for that! :)  Nat and I are waiting for our flat which would approximately be available by the end of 2018 (considering renovations and all).  Regarding children, yes, Nat and I would love to be blessed with at least 2 children, but we are waiting for our flat (as mentioned) and also based on current circumstances and commitments, we shall wait.


2014


During our honeymoon 2 years ago, I had my dreams came true; we visited London and caught a fleeting glimpse of Queen Elizabeth, and went to Vatican City, Sistine Chapel, saw the statue of David and admired the works of Michelangelo.  I am extremely elated and grateful.  Those memories would no doubt be stored in my long-term memory.

I also returned to church 2 years ago.  God led me to Bedok Lutheran Church.  During 1 sermon, the preacher was preaching about the Prodigal Son; I sensed that the Holy Spirit was speaking to me because I could strongly relate to this particular parable.

2015


Travelled with my 2 best friends.  Finally with the both of them!


Present

Some personal goals that I had was to read widely.  As an English undergraduate, the books that came along with it helped.   I would love to read even more; much more.

I can never thank God enough for my job!  I love my job and I'm growing a lot as a person.  However, I think I need to remind myself that God is my priority, followed by my family.  Help me not to lose sight!

I also sensed a seachange in my life, re-prioritising sometimes makes me feel like I have fewer friends, but I guess this is the season in my life that I'm given leadership and responsibilities and I will do my best to serve God.

While I doubt anyone close to me is reading this (except for Nat), I am somewhat sure I will read this again sometime in the future.  All I want to say at this point is, I am extremely grateful to God for all that I have and my prayer is for Him to mold me to be the kind of person He wants me to be.

Love,
Pam

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...

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.
