Life in TW

Wow, I can't believe that it's been 12 days since I have been back. I thank God that this is one of the best holidays I have ever had for a long time. Perhaps because it's a time of transformation and a time to look forward to something new. But, one thing I also have to acknowledge and be thankful for is my church in Taiwan.

Thank God that mum and aunt are heavily involved in church activities so I am able to participate in various events and programs without having to go over the process of fear to making new friends or getting used to the environment again.

Looking back these 12 days, I can't believe how many activities I have already done and am so grateful to be able to make so many friends in such a short time.



Last week I went river tracing with a group of people from church.

This is only a photo from the internet. I posted this to show you what river tracing is like. It's self explanatory from the photo above. What you do is climbing against the water to reach the platform and jump down from there into the water.

It was such a great experience for everyone. Through this I saw that people learned to give others a hand and encourage others to try harder! Not only did I brought 5 big bruises back with me, but also brought back great personal experience and invaluable friendship.

Most importantly, I thank God for His grace for me. Thank God for growing me and continue His love for me. Most importantly, I have sensed a great revival in churches and seeing God doing great work in the hearts of the Taiwanese people. Thank God for my church, thank Him for His faithfulness for His churches and His people. I feel so blessed to be able to have a big family of God, a family who is always prepared to love and prepared to care for the people in need. I thank God for giving me a church which provide resources to equip Christians to grow deeper in God. I have learned so much during these 2 weeks and am so excited to learn more about God and see more lost ones come to our great saviour's arms and be comforted.

Jesus is my lover and my king. His love is perfect, I thank Him for loving me so I can pour out love to the people who need love. There is so much love in God, how can it be fake? It is only Love that can transform, and I am sure it is God's love that transformed me.

Once I was lost, but I am now found. Once I was depressed, but I am now joyful.

Who else can do this but Jesus?

Walking warrior

I feel like I have become a walking warrior after coming to Japan. In Japan, walking is so important to get around places. These few days, my dorm mate and I have walked more than we imagined, thanks to our "gifts" in directions. The worst trip was the one to our ward office to apply for our alien registration card. It took almost 45 minutes to get there. However, the trip was suppose to take only 25 minutes, so basically we spent half of the time getting lost. Thanks to our fabulous sense of directions, we have walked a lot these few days. Almost equivalent to a month of walking distance when I was in Australia. This is Shibuya, a big shopping district for youngsters. The area is filled with restaurants, department stores and clothes shops. Both of our eyes are puffy due to too much walking under the hot sun. At Shibuya station Before we took this photo, we were asked by a Japanese television station if they could film us. However I told her we are foreigners that our Japa...

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...

Playing hard before Uni starts

We went to a place called Odaiba on Thursday. Since Uni is starting next Monday, we thought we should make the most out of our time here, hence planned a trip to the famous shopping heaven, (and a romantic place for couples at night).....Approximately 1 hour from our dormitory. My friend and I now have gained confidence in our direction after 10 days in Japan, and more praise to our acheivement in getting there without getting lost!! If you are good at directions, you probably have to imagine how meaningful it is to be able to get to a place without getting lost for direction blinds. Monorail station! The name of the monorail is Lily seagull, beautiful isn't it? The monorail track. The interior of the monorail. There weren't many people because it was a public holiday morning and the rain was pouring. Still I was very excited to be on the monorail, though my whole body was totally damped by the rain, including socks and shoes....... The weather in Japan has been strange th...
