God is good, very very good!

This time I have again experienced God's love and promises for me. It has shown me clearly that God is faithful and He does things in His own timing. And Judy, TRUST that I AM~ Last week had been a hectic week as many unexpected events happened. As people know, I am planning to go to Japan, and have been renting a house. Hence, before going, I need to sell all the furniture I own and clear the house by 5 th August. A month ago, I started plannig and had organised a storage place to put away everything and was pleased. Unexpectantly, a week ago, I was notified that I was not able to put away any of the furniture in the planned storage place. With no other choice, I quickily tried to find someone to sell to, a person expressed great interest and promised to buy everything from me, however, at the end the person did not end up buying anything. As a result, all these series of events happened had given me incredible stress and burden. In fact, I became extremely worried as having to se

Nothing is reliable except God

A lot of things happened in my life recently have made me realised truly how unreliable everything can be on earth . People whom you have trusted turned their backs from you, disappointed you, betrayed you, and have abused your kindness. You wholeheartedly believe that people will keep their promises like you do, however, a lot of times it turns out not so. People are sinners and are of the world, they don't do God's way, instead, they follow the world. They disappoint! They break the promises they made! At the end, they even leave the consequences to you and pretend they have done nothing wrong. My conclusion is: Nothing is reliable!!!! Everything on earth can makeyou feel frustrated!!! The good thing is that OUR GOD is reliable, the only person we can trust and rely on. When people turn their backs from you, God doesn't. God loves us and never disappoints us, His faithful love endures forever. His promises lasts forever and He loves us so much that He longs to give us His

AFL

I have had a busy week. Last Saturday I went to the footy with a group of people from my small group. Watched the match between Essendon and West Coast, it was my first game at the stadium and really enjoyed it. Despite getting lost on our way to collecting the tickets and scarfs.(Thanks to me who is the "best" with directions and somehow read 506 as 560) Group photo Little Jennifer got cold and hungry while waiting for others to come My hair looks messy because the wind was incredibly strong!! Half quarter This is Ice and me The match was held at the Ethiam stadium and it was amazing!! Really big and beautiful but quite cold Jun, Ice and I looking excited with Essendon scarves Showing off the tickets We left early because we got a bit bored as our team was losing a lot Sweet smiles outside the stadium on the way to Southern cross station We tried to take a jumping photo but because I didn't jump, it turned out to be a Kongfu photo Second attempt! Yay~Unfortunately the

Last minute

I think a lot of us like to do things in the last minute. I am organising for a group of 14 people including me to go to the football match. After all the hard work, two weeks ago I finally managed to book the tickets for everyone, however, yesterday some people told me they can not go today. This is annoying because everyone said they were going, but just the day before they tell you that they cannot go. Even though the tickets were free, but there are still a lot of people wishing to go but do not have tickets. They are taking this for granted. Moreover, if they told me a few days earlier, I might be able to find people who may be interested to go. Through this experience, I learn to be more reliable and trustworthy when promising someone for something. If there is anything urgent, I will try to tell the person as soon as possible, but NOT last minute. I admire people who work as an event organiser, who constantly have to face all these last minute frustrations!

What a relief!!

As you read previous entries, you may have realised that I had been stressed. That is because two days ago, I found out that I received a FAIL for one of the subjects last semester. In disbelief, I emailed the subject coordinator, but he didn't reply immediately. I was left really stressed and worried as I am about to go to Japan for exchange and ready to finish my last semester there. Who knows why things don't go the way we planned. I thought a lot, I was agitating over the fact that I will have to rush back to Melbourne for this subject and spend another $2000+ for it. I even blamed myself for not doing the assessment well enough to allow this to happen. I was also afraid to tell this BAD news to my parents and knew if I told them, they would be quite angry and disappointed. The stress accumulated so much that I could hardly breathe and felt quite sick. I couldn't even concentrate on doing anything. I continued to watch Korean and Japanese dramas, but they all didn't

So stressed that I can hardly breathe

Lord, help me from my stress, and deliver me from my trouble. I am so stressed, so please comfort me with your love. Please allow me to trust you more during this time, strengthen my faith through this. My life is yours and do whatever you wish. Praise you still for who you are and for hearing my prayers.

Face my failures

Facing my failures has been one of the most difficult tasks in my life so far. Again, God has brought light into this weakness and has given me a lesson to build up my courage to acknowledge my failure and not be ashamed of it. I am facing a really difficult task God has given right now, and that is to accept the fact that I failed. In Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Even in a difficult situation like this, God is in control and will work for the good for those who love Him. He will turn a bad situation into a good one and I need to trust with my whole heart that He loves me and His ways are perfect. Slowly I learn to accept my failure and still praise God for it, I know He has a purpose for it and it will not be in vain. Father God, may your will be done and not mine!

Have you ever been in love?

I was very touched by this when I found it in one of my files! I thank God that He is true love and I can experience it so truly. So that I don't need to go anywhere else to find false love. When I see the rainbow in the sky, I see God's sign of love, so beautiful and peaceful. I am reminded of His great promises, too. Gen 9:13 I have placed my rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of my covenant with you and with all the earth. Ezekiel 1:28 As the appearance of the rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the surrounding radiance. Such was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell on my face and heard a voice speaking. Enjoy and hope you can be touched too.

What a fulfilled day!

I had a super busy day yesterday, but had a great time. From morning, I went to Uni to collect my exchange documents. Straight after that I went to a lovely friend's house to help clean her house for today's house inspection. She is planning to sell her house, so she needed her house to be abolutely spotless and we really worked hard to make it like a display house..... By the end of it, although there were still millions of things to do, it was better than it was. We went for a walk in the bush for a while afterwards, it was refreshing and indeed a great exercise after a month of staying at home. After the cleaning and bushwalking, I went straight to the city again to meet up my beloved friends for dinner. Shel had been in the US for exchange for one year and I was really excited to see her after one full year. Gracey is a quiet girl but is easy going and has a smile that make people feel comfortable and warm. During the meal, I couldn't help asking Shel many questions abo

A desire to be loved by God

Have you ever wondered what true love is? Do you have a desire to be truly loved? 你是否曾經想知道什麼是真愛? 你是否渴望真正的被愛呢? I have just recently started posting more entries on this blog in preparation for my exciting Japan exchange trip. However, I found it hard to decide on the content of this blog. I have asked myself if I should post anything about my faith that may seem dull to many of my friends or should I just post fun things to make it more desirable for my readers? 我近期才比較頻繁地發文 ,為的是分享日後令人興奮的日本交換學生生活而準備。但是在決定這個部落格的風格及內容時,我遇到了難題。我問自己是否應該分享對很多朋友們來說是很無趣的信仰,亦或是分享那些有趣的東西使更多人來閱讀呢? At the end, I still cannot settle with the fact that many people in this world are still lost and are living in darkness. I figured I should still share the love of God through this blog, though it may be undesirable, the love of God needs to be spread. 到頭來,這世界裡仍然有很多人的生命是迷失的或生處在黑暗當中這事,令我的心無法停歇。我決定我必須透過這個部落格來分享上帝的愛,即使可能沒有很多人會喜歡讀,但傳遞上帝的愛是更需要的。 Deep down in the innermost heart of every human being, we desire to be loved by

Holiday

I really should do a plan for my holiday, otherwise I will just be wasting time doing nothing. For the past weeks, I don't even remember what I have done. This is really bad. I stay home and don't feel like going out because of the cold. I do enjoy staying at home a lot, but every now and then, I feel it is important to go out for a walk. What can I do between now and August? So bored....

Yay! Accomodation in Japan is finally confirmed

I am going on a study exchange in Japan for six months from September and am really excited about it. It took seven months to know whether or not I was accepted. During these few months, it really tested my patience and trust in God. Talking about accomodation, it was indeed very confusing and frustrating. At the end of May, Waseda University opened their online housing questionnaire to all fall semester entry students. However, none of the Melbourne University applicants received any information about it. In fact, for a few months, we didn't hear anything about our application. Not until the 9th June, which was two days before the housing questionnaire deadline did we receive an email about our failure to submit one. The most confusing thing was that we didn't even know whether or not were accepted but the first email we received was about our failure to complete an application. I emailed our exchange coordinator soon after I received the email, but unfortunately she told us s

My childwood

(If you know who Melody is, she is on my right) I just found this photo on my computer and thought I will share it to everyone. As you can tell, I was the youngest child in the group. The one on the left is my grandmother and all the rest are my cousins except the one you can't see the face. You may wonder why! This is funny because my brother was always the naughty and stubborn one, he didn't like to do the same thing as everyone, he liked to be different. And me as a child, I always had short hair because my mum didn't know how to tie pretty hair like a lot of mums do(but my mum is still a very good mum), so I always had short hair. I was a tomboy, too as I always hung out with boys and especially played a lot of boy games like the dragon ball fight, airplanes and swords with my brother. I can't remember where it was taken, but it must have been a tourist resort or something. Look the way my shorts were tucked in, so funny~

Thank you Nana

Thank you that you are reading my blog!! It is such a great encouragement for me that someone is actually reading my blog and told me that she was encouraged by it!! I feel so loved~That's why I have the big heart on the right^^ I am not very confident with writing, but I often feel like sharing my life experiences with people and reflect my life through writing.
