Broken Toys

Just as little children would lift up the broken toys to the adults in their life to mend, I lift up the problems in my life to my Almighty God.

I hang around trying as best as I could to help Him mend my life.

In the midst of the long and tiresome wait, I could not take it anymore...

With tears in my eyes, I snatch my problems back from the Father's hand.

"How could you be so slow" I cried.

He replied, "My child, there is nothing I could do, you never did let go..."

Footprints

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Scenes from his life flashed across the sky
and he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to him and the other to the Lord.

When the last scene of his life had flashed before him,
he recalled that at the lowest and saddest times of his life
there was only one set of footprints.

Dismayed, he asked, "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way.
I don't understand why, when I needed you most,
you would leave me."

The Lord replied, "My precious child.
I love you and I would never leave you.

During your times of trial and suffering
when you saw only one set of footprints...

That was when I carried you."

Creativity

My darlings are cute, innocent and creative all at the same time. :D
Had this make their own windmill activity, and after cutting out the square part,
they came up with this...

date

was just watching the TV,
realized the idea of the difference btw a guy and a girl in a date.

Guys focuse on the bigger picture. the main agenda.
1. Where to go. (good food will be a bonus)
2. Is there seats available (some would not even be bothered about that)
3. End of story.
Perhaps they will check their hair a little before they go out.

Obviously the description above is applicable to guys who does not think, worry, care much about impressing the girl.

and the description below is on girls who bothers about impressing the guy. and Yes all girls wants to win the Golden Honor.

Girls on the other hand,
1. Where to go?
2. Is the scenery nice, got view or not?
3. Is the atmosphere nice? Got candlelight or not?
4. What to wear? Skirt or Jeans?
5. Do I look pretty in that? Does the color compliment me?
6. This bag? That bag?
6. This pair of shoe?
7. What to eat?
8. Will the food affect my slimming plan?
9. Is my make-up still in place?
10. Am I eating too much?
11. Am I too loud?
12. Do I talk too much?
13. Where shall we go after that?
14. Are we going to take a walk?
15. Is he going to send me home? (list from here on is not applicable to girls with good esteem and confident level)
16. Kiss him? Kiss him not?
17. left cheek? right cheek?
18. Do I still wave at him through the window?
19. Did I make a good impression?
20. Is he going to ask me out again?
21. Will he call?

oki, you know what I'm saying. :D

Hmm... should I go look for a girlfriend?
or should I learn not to focuse so much on details?

Oh ya, that list successfully brings out the idea of why going on a dinner (not even a date yet) can be very stressful to girls.

But hey, if you can give us a good time, we can give you a good time too.

it sure takes alot to be a Bimbo~

I'll choose the latter.
Need to learn the importance of not over-working also.

Do you Guys have anything to say?

Perhaps being romantic is about being a little bit more bothered about the details.

update

Hello people~

today my school celebrates Racial Harmony day,
so tts the perfect chance to show off my pupils.



2 of my darlings from my Pri 3 science class.

I've got 3 items to share.

one is about giving the best i have for the things I do.

Was just looking around at the things that are going on,
got reminded of how tt time I took a round trip on the cab just because I forgot to bring wallet.
Just on the cab itself, I was grumbling, then the driver shared about not being a perfectionist bcos alot of time people dont think like you do, if you want everything to be perfect, go according to your way, it would just simpliy be a disappointment trip.

Just like how tt time i too was grumbling at myself for not bringing my wallet to school (NIE) end up have to borrow, and my friend literally used the words "Can you stop being such a perfectionist?"

What matters to me in an immeasurable way may be of a tiny matter to other.

Its just an attitude of life ba.
Are you happy with who you are?
Its not about being happy with the people around you, but the one that is looking back at you in the mirror.

2nd issue.

drawing the line...
tts a big pain in the butt for me.
maybe thats the reason y I cant take lower primary ba.
I tend to be overly familiar with the people around me.
Because of that, the pupils can be real friendly with me.
So much so that the younger ones will simply climb over my head.
Theres a need to be open with the teachers, there too is a need to know the importance of respect and obedience.

3rd issue.

was out for an outing today. was just observing one of the person who served us.
Its really very her very natural. can see that thats the way she is.
The way tt she talk which is not exactly the best, in front of people of prestige status.
It reminds me of myself,
I may be acceptable to many people. im not faked. But still same goes, my behavior may not be desirable.
Like what my leader says, having the need to be more winsome.

Be not rash with your mouth, and let not your heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and you on earth: therefore let your words be few.
(Ecclesiastes 5:2)

it might be things that you just have to say, but is it filtered?

kk, KO le,
time to go le,
thanks for spending time.

Be Bless

Amanda

dont understand

I dont understand...

had this friend, got hurt before, so closed himself up, put on a happy front. Refused to let people in to help.
So recently, we are expecting a friend's birthday. That Closed up friend of mine planned a Wah Candle Light Dinner surprise thing.

I dont know why, instantly I feel super turn off. (not that I need to be turned on)
But I dont understand, why would someone who is so closed up, do something that will open up a person's heart.

Its like not having the ability to, and yet try to be someone who is.

Just as another friend, who said was in darkness, and yet speak words of comfort to people around.

I dont understand. Am I weird or is this world, just so different, so unexpected, so in-comprehensive-able.

Dont one need to minister and address oneself first before entering into another's life?
Wont they feel that their actions and opinion be unbalance, affected and shifted by their past, or even their present that they choose to not address, choose to turn away from.

Who Am I?
Amanda (oh ya, thats my name)

today

cards

:D today, went out to buy Digital Camera with 3 friends from the SGC Forum. Quite a good bargain I guess.
At least its according to my will of not having to spend more than the budget allocated.

Bought it for $250

Olympus FE-230




not bad ar?

anyway, it was quite a silly deal, but ya, not important. The point is, the money is spend le. :D

A friend of my friend did a tarot reading for me today. strayed into all forms of topic.



its interesting how things are... :)

these cards reflect alot of things, just as how they would illustrate the things that happens in one's life. :)

How theres this card,

It depicts the conflict in opinion, and hence the struggle, hence the tremor. Inability to weight other people's opinion against yours, not having control.


Through this card, it calls forth wisdom thats necessary for decision making.


ANother one, thats so much about being the sword on the bed, the item in the state of comfort. :)


Last but not least being the Fool. Having the simple faith of trusting and believing, though going through times of betrayal and unjust, yet emerge just as it was meant to be.

plenty of cards which i would love to share, :) cant seem to find the pictures. Guess now is not the time.

Of course in every set of cards there is its background, its rules and it purpose, and character. which will then apply to individual cases differently.

Kind of keen, when I have the time, shall put a little investment of time and money into it.

:)
Be In the World, but not of the World.
Like Daniel. (if only my eye shadows were like his) :D

Be Bless,
Love,
Amanda

Gra

call me insane or full of pride,
I kinda admire my capacity. :)

Thank God for His Grace.

1 Cor 13

hello people~Ω

hows everyone been?
so sorry, its been so long since i last update
:)

sorry ar, was really tired and busy.

I think my life and focuse need to change,
got to take away some internet time, in replacement of school time and sleep time,
no sleep time first, sleep must have piority. :D

yes my dark eye rings are coming out!!!
was preparing for Choir on sunday morning when i realize I need conceal le...
*soB* *sOb*

I am so losing my social life.

kk, change focuse.

I love my kids, :)
i love the way they interact with me.
I love the openness they have with me.
I love the way they are willing to joke around and share about their history and feelings with me during after-school lunch.
I love my kids. :)

In as much as I am feeling tired and everything, I have no regrets stepping into this line, this phase of life. :)

As it is written, All things happened for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

Was just serving in chinese church, when I receive a revelation, :)
Whats the point of having ministry, serving the Lord full time when you have no love, or interaction with the Lord? :)

The whole chapter on 1 Cor 13 exalts love.

Its kind of like standing on the choir stand, with all the excitement and everything, but couldnt feel the presence at all.
On top of that, the pastor was so soaked in worship that its as though the worship just doesnt end.

God is love.

1 Cor 13:13
And now abides faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

God help me to fall in-love with You more. I repent of the complacency that I had, You know I cant walk through this without You God, help me I pray. not by might not by power, but by Your Spirit God. Give me Your will, Give me Your heart, bring me back to my first love. I'm tired Lord, You said Your grace is sufficient, help me Lord. Its not about me, its about You. make this body a body that the Holy Spirit would dwell in God, Give me new revelations God, I hunger for You Lord. Help me Lord, help me, I wanna know You as my Father, As my Father, reveal Yourself to me Lord. A new level of faith God. You and You only Lord. I love you, and I thank You, thank You. All this I pray, In Jesus name. Amen.

Be Bless,
Love,
Amanda
