Matthew 7 : 13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. " we were on our last session of Sermon on the Mount a few weeks ago and Kathryn brought up the narrow road. all along I've only had one picture in my head when I read that verse. But then she brought a different light to it - perhaps the whole point of a narrow road is to leave no chance to deviate from you main purpose. It is a focused journey with no room for distractions. That really stuck on me for quite a while. My focused was always on the difficulty of the road and never the reason behind it.

Mengejar Hadirmu lyrics by GMB
Dekat padaMu itu rinduku
Setiap kataku Kau pun menunggu
Tak kusangka kutemukan satu kasih yang abadi
Kini kudatang dan kubawa hidupku
Memandang wajahMu
Mengikuti kebaikanMu
Mengejar hadirMu dalam hidupku
Membawa sembahku
Menyatakan kebesaranMu
Mengejar hadirMu dalam hidupku
doing a suejan
Think the best part about shopping is coming home and re-trying everything all over
again. Just realized after snapping a picture of my stash that my newly bought stuff
matched. I must have a sub-conscious colour pallette in my head while shopping
coz everything seems to be in shades of rose, champagne, beige or grey. interesting…
today's shopping achievement : not one single piece of clothing was black in colour.
today's shopping failure : buying sheer & summer-like clothing when in actual fact the
reason for the shopping trip was to get more warm clothes for winter. -_- fail terus.
i guees my retail therapy activities are pretty extensive because a friend of mine recently
made it into a verb. this is what he said : "when I get to Spain im gonna go to Zara and
pull a suejan." I burst out laughing right when I heard that… lawls. i shall not deny any
thing lest my friends accuse me of lying. ;p all i can say is that all the things i've
experienced, things i own, oppurtunities opened to me - they are all from my Him. and
like the way Dave has put it, i am merely blessed and living in that favour.
and extremely thankful for it too. :D
schnowwwinnng!
its 148am outside and its snowwwinnng! :D i was squealing and gleefully jumpingup and down like a little girl outside the abel's house just now. everyone's out of
their houses in pj's and throwing snowballs at each other. ^_^ no preddy pictures
to show you coz i was too busy enjoying my snow. standing in the middle of the
road with snow falling down on your face. HEEEEEEEE.
okays nak tidur. just thought i'd record down how im feeling on this really awesome
night. PURE GLEE.
xxx {edits} xxxx
it's 2 hours later and im back in my room, all warm and fiery from the maggi mee's
that we ate in doreen's kitchen (straight out from the pot) after round two of
snow playing. for the record, i was living on 3 hours of sleep since Saturday and
was telling everyone how im was goona go off and schleep when Yue Han calls
and gets us all outside. we went MAD. like the kiddiest of the kids, with snow angels
pelting snowballs, loads of selt timer shots with snowbombs, a mini wedding dress
snowman and a silly video attempt at broadcasting this news on Yue Han's camera.
and this time we have pictures! it's nights like these that will never be forgotten and
forever imprinted into that happy-memory-bank, waiting to be reminisced and retold.
Thank you God for answering my mini-back-of-my-mind-prayer/wishful-thinking.
It's true, He cares for us, even in the tiniest of things. :D
skygazing
tonight we took a long walk back from a friend's place after a full housewarming, some
wii games and chilling in a cosy room. i love the nights here on campus. not always
quiet (especially on weekends), but somehow the noise seems to fade if you would
just look upwards and spend some time stargazing. i think this might actually carry on
as a daily routine. skygazing and recapping the day. thinking about what i did, what i
should have done or shouldn't have done. and mostly thinking alot about the things i
shouldn't have said. my mouth tends to runaway like that. Less talking Sue Jan! more
listening ok?
Psalms 141:3
Set a guard over my mouth, O LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips.
