"God with us."
2 Corinthians 4
For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. 6For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness,"made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.
7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. 8We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. 12So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken."With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak, 14because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence. 15All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God.
16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Holding onto the promise, challenging myself for God, doing the hardest thing for God.p/s: more updates @ tumblr!
gratefulBaby Kayden was in Santa's costume today! Rweally very cute! And I played a lot with Ethan and Keira today, especially balloons, which they took 4 back home. I'm really glad my family is doing well right now, and very thankful of course. The buffet was good and I enjoyed it much. :D :D

Though I know I'm really hyped up and excited to be working at Forever21 (at the same time I feel abit tight at my chest also) ... and the schedule is out already, I'm going to reject it as soon as the manager calls me back. I'm really afraid it will clash with church and stuff... and I finally confirm another job! Yes it may be mundane but at least it's on days which definitely will not clash with cell nor church, and it's twice to thrice a week (and i believe I can choose to work on some days only. Lol) and the per-hourly rate is higher.
I know this is the right choice!
chipperCHRISTmas is about the birth of Jesus Christ. And I'm thankful and honoured to celebrate His birthday today. (: As we give our presents, may we be reminded that the greatest gift of all is the blood of Christ... and the greatest gift we can give to our King, is our lives.</p>
Family christmas party tmr + Kayden's full month celebration + Church ("Church, church.. 2 x 4 = Jesus, 3 x 4 = Jesus! Because in bible school, we learn that Jesus is the answer!")
thankful

Mon YNGT rehersal. Finalized everything and we're ready to really have our share of fun, peace, joy and laughter! :D
Tues ALL SET FOR THE ACTUAL AUDITION!! It was really funny and I can't help but hide behind the pillar and laugh till I really wanted to roll on the floor. Wearing that wig makes me really hyped up! We did Visa Dance for YNGT publicity as well... and the cameraman zoomed out from my nosetrills to the whole group... PIAN NI DE LA! Lol, but he did zoomed out from my face I reckon. But it was a very fun time together with the cellies! Big Hugs And Kisses! I hope there's fireworks too! ^.^
Today Went to play basketball + Swim with Hannah, Cheryl, Chuanz, Ming, Ben, Sam and MC! I think this sounds stupid but I cried when I couldn't feel the floor of A ONE METRE POOL. I'm just scared stiff. Andand! I tried the slidessssss gosh it was really fun too! And Benben is so cute he managed to drag mc down the slides. Lol. I have to admit, the feeling to be able to go underwater and look at thing is really awesome and ultimate coolness. I'll try my very best to learn how to swim!! :D
Thank God for cellies, for it is God's grace that we are in a team... and that we are able to enjoy each other's presence. Love you mucho with all my heart. :D
